In these difficult times almost everyone would jump at the opportunity to earn some extra income, whether we have a job or not. It is amazing to know that with just an extra $500/month more than half the foreclosures in the USA could have been avoided. This means that many of us just live right on the edge. As a financial planner for many years I have advised numerous clients to start some form of home-based business so they could earn some extra money to pay off expensive credit cards and get back on their feet.
This begs the question: What home-based business could I start? Well, most of us neither have the money or the know-how to start a business. So what should we do? Having spent almost two decades researching this, the conclusion I have come to is find a product or service you would use yourself that is being sold by the network marketing (MLM) industry. A lot of you would say, “I have already tried that and it didn’t work”. That may be true but the reason it didn’t work is maybe you joined for the wrong reasons, it was the wrong company and/or they had the wrong products for you.
Network marketing is by far the cheapest way to start your own business. In the case of One24, which I will outline in a minute, the start up costs are close to zero. They have their product line, their marketing materials, the marketing plan, a website for you and people who will help you get started. It is almost like having a franchise without the franchise fee. The difficulty is deciding which company is best for you. The main reason why things didn’t work out in the past is because you didn’t spend enough time doing this research.
Well, after almost 20 years researching this problem, I have certain features that I look for in any company. Beware of those companies that show you riches such as fast cars, beautiful homes and heaps of cash. They are selling the dream not the company. I look for companies that have well-known and experienced management, great products people need, a compensation plan that pays for referring others to buy the product (not mass recruiting) and a compensation plan that is easy to understand.
Recently, I have come across a company that matches all my criteria and which I think will revolutionize the network marketing (MLM) industry. This company is One24. First of all it has a very simple product, NatraBurst, which provides us with the important daily nutrients that all doctors say we need. NatraBurst is not a supplement; it is a food nutrient addition to our diet. It comes in a powder form that we can incorporate with other foods we consume or it can be mixed in the form of a shake.
The advantage of this is that, if we so desire, we can use it to replace one of our daily meals. It can also be used to replace supplements we are already taking. This allows us to cover the cost of the product every month so that consuming it costs us nothing extra. I have personally used it as a weight loss product and use it to replace either my lunch or dinner every day. So I am losing weight but at the same time know I am feeding myself with the nutrients that come from fruits and vegetables. This has allowed me to stop taking one of my old supplements.
I will be posting another blog covering NatraBurst in more detail or you can click on the provided web links for more information. The product has been formulated by one of the industry’s foremost experts in this field – Mark Seyforth. He was responsible for the product formulations for Herbalife, which is a world renowned, global MLM company with billions in sales.
Perhaps the most fascinating part of One24 is their marketing and compensation plan. There are no start up costs. All you have to do is use the product every month. There are no other hidden monthly costs at One24, like fees for websites or other marketing tools. Your website if free and with it comes loads of webinars and conference calls people can be invited to. In fact the only other cost I incurred was business cards for about $40 for 500 at Vistaprint. That’s it! Now to the compensation plan.
To make this easier for you I have uploaded a video for you to watch which is on of the best presentations I have seen. Here it is:
