Starting A Business In This Economy

What would it take to start a business in this economy? I guess it depends on the business, but starting any business today is risky. If you start a retail store or a service business there will be an investment up front. The challenge is receiving a return on that investment in as short of time as possible, if at all.

From someone who has started a business in the service industry, I can tell you that the cost to start the business was a very high 6-figure expense. The costs continue to climb and I'm one of the lowest paid people because all the money goes back into the business. If you have ever started a business or are still running one, I don't think I have to tell you that it's not all that it's cracked up to be. The responsibility for every aspect of the company is on your shoulders.

This wouldn't necessarily cause stress, but it often does. I have to refer to Michael Gerber and his book E-Myth. He talks about a women who can make the best pie in the world, but when she was encouraged to open a business to sell them, she didn't do well. Not because no one liked her pies, but because she lacked the skills to run a business. This is what I'm finding today. Most people want to be in business for themselves,  but they lack the financing to start a business and the skills to run one.

That is where Network Marketing comes in. Most people think it is one of those get rich quick schemes, but not all companies are created equal. With over 1,000 companies starting every year, I'm sure there are a few that are like that. You know the ones that tell you that you don't have to talk to anyone or buy anything. I would watch out for those and others, of course.

However, if you do your research on quality companies then you will discover that there are some great ones out there. I represent one such company that has been around 10 years and is poised to be a Billion dollar company within the next two years. They already have accumulated sales of $1.8 Billion dollars since 2002. Very few companies make it to five years and less than that make it to a Billion in sales in one year. A handful make it to multiple billions per year. Isagenix is the next company to do just that.

The advantages of starting a business with Isagenix? Low start up cost, a company that is on the verge of massive momentum, amazing products that work, incredible compensation plan, the top formulator in the world, the management team that has led another company to a Billion dollars, the best culture a business could ask for and VISION. If you understood where this company plans to journey, then you would get very excited and would want to be a part of their exponential growth. The best part is that you don't need any special skills to run this business, nor do you need a small fortune to start it. You just need the desire to help other people take control of their health. For your efforts in helping others, the company will pay you handsomely for doing so. That's the kind of business I want to be associated with, how about you?
