Keywords: Article Body: The most unfortunate and damaging misconceptions about work at home business is the extra income can come very quickly. I urge You to acquaint yourself with these three myths, and protect yourself from the Internet hype and misconceptions. Online MLMs Can Generate A High Profitable Income In One Month Take a look at this: The average internet MLM pays £1 to £5 per person in an organization. To earn £1,000 - £5,000 per month, you need 1000 people in your organization. This is possible to achieve. But it takes time. "You Have A Ground Floor Opportunity - You Must Join Today" When someone says: "Ground Floor Opportunity - Join Today" you have to ask yourself what are they really saying? Are they saying "People who join after me have less chance of making money than myself or "The organisation will be useless in two to three years time. It would be heart breaking to take a year or two to build a good residual income, only to have that income disappear over night? And what would happen to the poor suckers who join in six or seven months time? To be honest a good business opportunity should actually improve with time and exposure. It should be based on products (or services) - and delivering more in the product value than the pound amount people are paying for it. Yes it IS possible to find such companies on the internet. I know a few of them. Make A lot Of Sales and You Make loads Of Cash MLM works best when a large number of people each help each other to make a small numbers of sales. Let me give an example of what I mean: In an offline business we were in, someone joins the organisation who is an awesome direct mail marketer. Soon he put together a masterly direct mail campaign to promote this opportunity. He invested a lot of money then unleashed his packages. In six weeks he had several hundred people in his downline, and was earning several thousand pounds per month. But within three years he had dropped out of that company. Why is this you may ask? You see almost none of the people he brought in were able to duplicate what he was able to do. So he was unable to help them grow their businesses (and possibly had no time to help 500 newbies). And since the monthly purchase requirement was £70.00 in this particular company they soon started dropping out. The point you really ought to understand is this: "REMEMBER In MLM, you DO NOT make much money from making sales - You Make A Lot Of Money From Building An Organization!" This brings us nicely to the next and final misconception: It’s Best To Build From The Top Downwards Many people feel that you "come in at the top", then bring people in "under you". They reflect this in their attitude to the job. Be Smart and know better. It’s IMPORTANT You Build From The Bottom In the beginning, there is no one in your business. You just have a dream, and help from your company and up-line. You find three people and place them in your foundation. Then you physically support them from below. Yes, they are a bit heavy at first, but you what is required - you continue to support them. One morning you wake up and there are nine people in your structure. From the three you started with. You’re supporting the nine people structure now, and because you do, your organisation continues to grow. Eventually, when you look up, you find that you have a solid building, based on "below support". Can you see this? The bottom people you recruit and assist to take their first steps as marketers of your opportunity. When they help other people, your organization expands. The point is that the engine that drives lasting MLM growth is people helping other people, in small numbers, and everybody making sure they do their share. At the beginning your job is to sponsor a small number of people and support them, and encourage them to make sales... encourage them to encourage other people in the same way. Once you build a small group of people and the helping culture takes hold, you will start to develop a rapidly growing organization... that grows rapidly and wildly with a momentum that’s impossible to stop, even if you tried to. You will have an Internet home based business to be proud of.
