Will Your Next Home Based Business Work?

By Russell Howe


Thousands of people scour the internet every day trying to find the best home based business and affiliate program to get involved with. Making money online is now a popular choice among people looking to bolster their monthly income in their spare time.

There are so many businesses online, however, that most of them do not succeed.

In the offline world over 70% of new businesses fail within two years. Online that figure is only 30%, so don't believe the myth that it's harder to succeed online. That being said, of course, there must be a reason why opportunities like Global Domains International are able to last long term and others cannot make it out of their starting blocks. We are going to show you that reason now.
In today\'s video, Russ Howe teaches how to find the best home based business for you.


There is a set of unwritten rules in the world of business. If you are able to tick all of the boxes then the chances are you're going to get some positive results.

1. Is the product actually appealing?

2. Is the compensation plan as good as they make it out to be?

3. Is the company established?

4. Do you have a target? If not, you need to set one.

5. Do you have the time required to build your own business from scratch?

The list above shows the five questions you should ask yourself before you get involved in any business venture. It doesn't matter whether it is internet based or if you are trying to open a store in your local high street. If you get a negative answer to any of the questions featured on the list you should not pursue the opportunity.

Remember, most companies fail. If you are serious about working for yourself and are looking into affiliate marketing as a means to do that then you have to be able to trust the company you choose.

A huge part of becoming your own boss is the mental test it puts you through. It's like nothing you have ever encountered before and most people are not ready for it. If you answered questions three, four and five without any problems that's a good indication you are ready.

It also teaches you the value of setting goals. Rather than just waiting for something to happen, you need to go out there and generate success for yourself. Once you have a goal written down and a time frame for achieving it, you get into a business mindset.

We'd also recommend you speak to someone in your life who has become their own boss, even if they've done it via an offline business model such as a shop or garage. They'll explain the importance of the final question, which asks how much time you have to put into your program. There will be hard, testing times and it can feel lonely when you are both the CEO and the front line staff of your own enterprise. This is part and parcel of the deal, you need to be able to take the rough with the smooth.

The biggest battle most people face with internet marketing is the temptation to constantly switch between affiliate programs trying to find an easier ride. Companies will look to prey on people like that, so don't fall for promises of easy success.

When you do find an affiliate program which manages to tick all of the boxes in today's list of rules you will know you have found the best home based business program for you. The choice out there is huge, so take your time and use the list of rules to help you make the best decision for yourself.
