Owning your own home-based business
Making money online can be a profitable, enjoyable and
successful work at home venture. But one needs to be very
careful and aware of the traps that are out there for us to fall
into. There are many, many scams to fall for if a person isn't
really careful.
The Federal Trade Commission is becoming more and more strict
adding new laws against the more than 200 business opportunity
schemes that are out there online. Studies conducted by the
Federal Trade Commission estimate that approximately $200
billion is scammed yearly out of innocent people who are looking
for work at home jobs.
Some factors that need to be considered before making any type
of decision or commitment to any company that offers you a home
based business opportunity are: * Is there an investment? And if
so, how much? Is it more than you can afford to lose? Is the
company or any of its representatives pressuring you for it
immediately? Can you see clearly a potential gain from making
this investment?
* Does this company offer benefits that just seem to good to be
true? Then in all actuality, they probably are to good to be
true!
* Have you researched this company? It is highly recommended
that you go online and research any company that offers you any
type of home-based business opportunity. Go to the Better
Business Bureau and ask for help and advice on this particular
company and on home based businesses. Go to the company website
and read, read, read, even the small print! Do not sign any
contract until you have done your research. And in the same
turn, get any promises form the company in a written contract as
well.
* If the information is available, talk to people who have
invested in this company. If the information is not available,
ask for it.
