Choosing the Right Online Business Plan

In an earlier post I talked about whether online business plans were "real" or if they were just another harebrained, get rich quick scheme dreamed up by the latest wanna-be millionaire who knows he'll make more money promoting an online business plan, collecting membership fees and annual dues, than he ever will actually doing the work! The answer is-yes. Some online business plans are perfectly legitimate business opportunities with a virtually limitless earning potential if your selling skills are up to par.

Others aren't worth the virtual paper they print their promotions on.

The secret to success when it comes to online business plans is choosing the plan that's right for you. A truly successful online business plan has to have a few things going for it in the first place.

1) It has to be legit. If you're being pulled into a company that won't even tell you what their product line is until they've explained their pyramid scheme to you, this probably isn't something you want to be a part of. An online business plan with no other web presence than the one you found it on, one that has repeatedly received negative reviews by members or one that is regularly flagged as a potential "scam" aren't the real deal. Hot tip of the day: Before you send them a dime, check them (and their mailing address) out with the Better Business Bureau. It's free, takes less than a half an hour, and you'll feel a lot better about signing on the bottom line to become a part of whatever it is that they're doing.

2) You have to enjoy it!! If you had to flag the number one reason that most businesses and sales don't succeed, it's because the people behind them don't believe in what they're doing anymore-not really. They've become complacent, content to sit back and let the world pass them by and try to make a living selling products and services for all the wrong reasons.


Choosing the right online business plan isn't hard. Just do your homework, listen to your instincts and make sure you're not committing yourself to an endeavor that might never work out the way you want it to just because you've had enough of the nine to five grind.
