If you are new to the home business arena and are investing in a home-based business, I believe it is important to ask your enroller about any additional costs you may incur when starting your business. Know what your investment really is. Sure the sales letter said that you can own my own business for only $49.99 (sound familiar?) but.. is there a hidden monthly fee? How much should you budget for advertising? Does your mentor/enroller suggest getting a domain name, setting up your own website? I’m not suggesting that you steer clear of a business that will have these costs. I am, however suggesting that you be aware of what additional costs may be involved so there are
no surprises!
As for how much you should invest, only you know that. Review the compensation plan, the product, the company in detail and decide if the investment amount is something you can afford and want to invest in. I’ve heard many people trying to convince their prospects to “do what it takes”, put it on your credit card, borrow from a friend or family member and to be honest I am not a big fan of those tactics. I’ve been down that road of debt and don’t wish it upon anyone. Sure they sometimes mean well and just want you to succeed BUT you know best what you can and can’t do… Be smart.
What I did is started something a little more affordable and leveraged that income into a business requiring a higher investment. I have listed both higher and low investment opportunities here and will continue to add more as I check
them out.
Wow… this post is a lot longer than I had intended. Amazing what I can do when the kids are asleep!
