In order to wrap your head around the various types of businesses, it would be helpful to categorize them in an understandable way. Let’s take a look:
1. Multi-Level Marketing Companies - Characteristically, these companies utilize the MLM method to advertise and market products of all kinds. MLM companies (also known as Network Marketing companies) have pay structures geared to be lucrative when recruiting and keeping a large volume of customers/business owners set up in a hierarchy. The foundational principle of MLM is to sell the product and the business at the same time and share profits between the many layers of the pay structure. Some examples of products sold via MLM are:
-
- Cosmetics
- Retail jewelry
- Decorative baskets
- Vitamins/Supplements
- Kitchen Utensils/Equipment
- Adult toys
- Personalized print items
- Cleaning supplies, household items
-
- Software programs
- Online services (web hosting, website creation, etc)
- Educational products
- Training conferences
- General products
-
- Similar list as for Affiliate marketing.
So, as you start researching the right company and structure to fit your needs, remember that each of these business types have their own weaknesses, but you will find that their strengths really define what they can offer to you as a prospective business owner. It is worth your time to do your research and due diligence. Having a business structure you can buy into is an important cornerstone to your new business’ foundation. Happy Hunting!
