Why The Best Business Opportunities Aren't Biz Opps

When I was looking for good home business ideas when I wanted to start another business I ran across a lot of "Business Opportunities" which is actually a business model online.  Business opportunities offer a pre-packages system in which you play a part and earn money.  The part you'll play is usually recruiter or marketer and sales.  Many of the top tier biz opps boast a "no selling" mantra as they systemtize a great deal of the sales process.  Money is made when people buy products.  Sometimes the products are the system it's self and some biz opps have other stand alone products.

Why Business Opportunities Aren't the Best

I personally don't care for the busienss opportunity business model at all.  I wrote an indepth article on business opportunities you can go read that and learn more.  The key to being successful with a biz opp is generating leads and you'll find that is both difficult and expensive online when you first start out.  The learning curve is pricey.  Once you have it figured out you'll have an easier time of making money but the compensation programs you'll find assume the people you recruit will do well also.  But remember they have to go through the same learning curve you did.

There are many good low cost business ideas you can start and work hard at to build  a solid business that will generate a significant passive income.  My experience with biz opps would be far from passive.  Which brings me to another point,  if you're going enroll in a biz opp that isn't passive don't market it in way that leads people to believe it is.  In the real world that is called lying and when you do that people will just quit and you'll be wasting your time.

If you're researching the business opportunity business model I suggest reading that article, its one of the best business opportunity articles on the web right now.  I included a video in the article from the FTC that explains the legal issues of promoting a business opportunity as well.

Are Business Opportunities the Most Profitable?

There are some people in the biz opp industry that earn a ton of cash.  I don't deny that one bit, I know a few personally.  They love it and it shows.  The business opportunity business model and compensation model allow a person to earn several hundred thousand dollars per year, but it certainly isn't the norm.
