Are you searching for a home based direct sales opportunity online that you can make $100K per year?

There are so many opportunities on the internet and you will probably say that the majority of them sound too Test good to be true. Some of them are multilevel marketing (MLM), affiliate marketing, network marketing and direct sales.

All of which I'm sure you can find someone within the opportunity that makes $100K per year. The FTC recently cracked down on those that weren't legitimate opportunities.

With that said, the majority of the opportunities are legit. The people that claim its a scam, didn't give it their all.

Ultimately, with these business opportunities, it is your business. Your success depends on you.

Top Tier Direct Sales

The best way to make $100K in a home based direct sales business is with a top tier product. It will take you far fewer sales to make a multiple six figure income. Think about it, if you were selling an MLM product that made you $20 per commission, how many sales would it take you to make $100K?

100,000/20=5,000

OR

A top tier product that made you $4,500 per commission.

100,000/4,500=22

Would you rather sell 5,000 of something to make $100K or 22 of something and make $100K? Honestly you have to put almost the same amount of effort into each of them.

Its all about targeting your audience.

Target Audience

Your target audience is who will most likely be interested in your product or opportunity. No matter what you sell, if you don't get in front of your target audience, you're not going to sell much of anything.

So why not choose a top tier product, get in front of those who are most likely to buy and do a fraction of the work of an MLM or affiliate product. This is the best way to make $100K in a home based direct sales opportunity online.

With the economy Test in rotten shape and hundreds of thousands of people losing or about to lose their jobs, there has never been a better time to start your own business so you can be in control of your own destiny. The question is, though, how do you find the right business? There are literally thousands to pick from.

So here are the 10 questions I suggest you ask about any business you might be considering to find an opportunity with low risk and a high probability of success.

1. What you can to afford to invest?

Decide this first so you do not get tempted to do something you can't afford. That means you need to include both the cost to buy and start the business as well as any continuing overhead to get you to profitability.

For example, franchises will typically require a minimum of $20,000 and very commonly over $100,000. So, if you can only afford to invest, say $1,000, you can eliminate thousands of businesses from your consideration right away.

2. What ongoing overhead is needed?

Ideally, find a home business that can be run part time or full time so you can keep costs down. The easiest way to be profitable is to have no overhead and very low operating costs so that even a small amount of sales will make you profitable. Part of making sure you'll have low overhead is ask:

3. Does the business require you to hire employees or keep an inventory of product to resell?

You don't want either....

4. Do you have to do any invoicing, collections or carry any accounts receivable?

If you are selling to businesses, a tough economy can lead to businesses not being able to pay their bills - and that's certainly not good if they owe you money. Don't get involved in any business where you where you have to do billing or collections.

5. Does the business has proven systems for you to follow?

The most important system is one to get sales because you have no business without customers. Don't get involved in anything that requires extensive training or requires skills you don't already have.

6. Is the product or service is in huge demand by a large market of people or businesses who have money to spend and are willing to buy?

It's best if your market includes both consumers and businesses.

7. How much competition is there and does the business have a significant advantage over any competitors is does have? Best of course, is a large market and no competition!

8. Can the product/service easily be niche marketed to many different kinds of businesses? By being able to be adapted easily to many niches, it will be much easier to make sales and you'll never run out of customers.

9. How long have they been in business? If you are looking at a network marketing company, make sure it has been in business for 5 years (98% fail before that) and that the total number of distributors is less than 200,000 (once that number is up in the millions, it's too late...)

10. Is there an opportunity to get wealthy through future residual income? This means can you get to the point where the business pays you a substantial income without employees, inventory or you having to work in it any more?

and lastly, scam alert...

Who else wants to work from home? Sounds like a silly question, right? I spent my day writing articles, updating a few blogs and sitting on the beach a few blocks from home... and I can't think of a better way (or place) to spend my days. But, with that in mind, I'm also aware that for most of the people reading this right now, that seems like a bit of a dream, or an unattained goal, or even worse... a bad sales pitch for some sort of get rich quick program. Sound familiar? I'm here to tell you it's not... and if you're willing to do a little bit of work, you can all of that and more... and fast!

So what is the best way to get started working from home?

Good question. There are tons of effective strategies that work, and all are fairly easy once you get the hang of what to do. But in my view, the easiest and most elegant path to make REAL money, starting right now, is through affiliate marketing. (and you can start pretty much for free)

What is the best way to earn money from affiliate marketing without a steep learning curve?

Honestly? Article marketing is my favorite method for newbies. Why? Well, arguably, we all already know how to write, and for the most part, as long as you are willing to put in some effort, the profits are guaranteed. I recommend you start with a few affiliate programs that revolve around things you are passionate about, register ONE new domain and use it to re-direct to programs you've picked, and simply create lots of content that "points" to your new Renault URL, and then forwards to either (or alternating) affiliate programs with your cookie.

Sound easy?

It is... and there is NO reason why anyone reading this right now can't make a thousand dollars a week, (or more) very quickly by simply following those simple steps above!
