"This is the freshest pre-launch MLM opportunity in the world. Join now!"

Timing is everything, or is it? Most new internet promotion companies fail within three years. So the question begs : Is it worth the risk to join a new network marketing program in prelaunch?

Virtually all multilevel selling companies start with a prelaunch phase. Why do they do that? It's to do with promoting and making interest and it is also a method of building a distribution network, where these first distributors don't have to pay to join. If the break actually looks great many of these preliminary distributors might have their own teams that go along with them, it's simply a way of getting lots of free advertising and getting some excitement going.

Manifestly the more teams of distributors an MLM company has the more sales it makes, that is obvious. Once their break even amount has been reached then the company is in profit, so the faster they get the product out into the market, the quicker they can reach that break even point.

The truth is that when most firms start out, it does take a few months to get to the break even point and begin making money, so signing folks up as distributors benefits the company immediately. Distributors also know that if the company reaches success quickly , then it will no longer be free to join, so better to get in in the pre launch phase than to get in and have to pay later .

The pre launch mlm company can keep its operating costs as low as possible, because there's no product or distribution concerned until the sales teams are set up and trained.

Wow that sounds great or is it? Don't dive into this too swiftly.

Because unhappily over 90% of MLM firms fail in the first couple of years, so you've got to bear that under consideration. During those 2 years you'll have put plenty of effort into building your team and any money you have put into the business will be wasted. But lots of folks have got into MLM during pre-launch and gone on to make 6 figure incomes.

The success fulness of an MLM company can often be traced to the standard of its products, how reasonably its compensatory schedule is structured, and , the quality of its training. Management also plays an important role, and an MLM company has a better chance if it is management personnel have prior experience inside multilevel marketing. Of course the product is also extremely important it has to be evergreen, of top quality and cost-effective not something that can be purchased at the local shop for less. Evergreen means people will always need the product.

A seasoned marketer will be in a position to judge the company on a number of factors to choose whether he is going to join, but a newcomer to MLM may not have enough experience to be in a position to tell if this company will work. You'll have to trust your sponsor to do that for you, so always ask questions.

If the company takes off, you can harvest great rewards by being one of the first thru the door, either by already having your own team, or by building a great down-line correctly.

But that's where the rubber meets the road with any network marketing business - regardless when you join. As it really doesn't make any difference if the company is new, in pre-launch, or has been established for years . None of that truly matters. What matters is what will YOU do with the company? How are you going to build your new business?

Your success is finally in your own hands. Are you a risk taker, or would you be more relaxed with an established business? Either way, this is your business, and it's only you that will make it succeed so it's up to you to decide in which situation you will be most comfortable.
