disastrous to find out later that the company has closed down, change its compensation plans or is a pyramid scam.
The
following criteria will be helpful in assisting you to make a wise decision:

its track records.
It is wise to select a company that has a successful track record of at least 5 years. Check
out on the paid-up capital, cash flows and profitability of the company. The reason being most networking marketing companies,
do not last more than 5 years. This does not mean that new companies are not good. You will have to do some extra fact
finding about the company.

It is important to check out the credibility
of the management of the company. Is the management experienced in the business of network marketing? Is network marketing
the principal business activity of the company? Is the company involved in other unrelated business operations? It is
wise to choose a company that has an experienced management team that is focused only on the business of network marketing.

This is the core of the business. The following considerations should be
taken into account: -variety of products and services -consumable products that are needed everyday -the effectiveness
and quality of the products and services -money back guarantees -source of the products and services -constant supply -products
that are safe to use and are environment friendly -competitive prices -after sales service
4.The Compensation
Plan
The compensation plan should be generous and fair to everyone. It should reward distributors based on the
effort put in and not on other criteria. It should be a working plan and not a quick get rich scheme.
5.Support
The
company should have proper support in terms of training and motivation. This includes training courses, seminars, workshops,
materials like audio visual, etc. There must be proper infrastructure set up to aid the supply and delivery of products
and services. There must be warehouses or collection centers set up to assist the supply of products and services.
The availability of genealogy reports, commission and bonus reports are also important.
6. International
Is
the company operating overseas, and is it possible for distributors to expand their business worldwide? For those who
are planning to build a big and global business, this is a very important factor to consider. With the Internet, it
is now possible to conduct a global business with ease.
7. Legality
Is the company properly registered
with the relevant authorities? Does the company have a valid direct selling license and do they follow the rules and
regulations of the countries they are operating in? Are they registered with the Direct Selling Associations of the various
countries they are operating in? These are important factors to consider because it will determine whether the company
will continue operation in the long run.
