Before we get to the Eight Most Frequently Asked Questions About a Home Business, I have to answer your first and most important question:

Here are the eight most frequently asked questions regarding a home business. Believe me, I have been where you are and I know what it’s like. It took me over 6 months of research and painful experience to learn these answers. I can save you 5 months, 30 days, and 23.9 hours of your time with just 5 minutes on this page.

1) Do I Need a Lot of Capital to Start a Home Business?

No. You’re upfront investment will range from $20 to $500 depending on the company you start with. If you’re asked to pay more, find out why. Beware of any opportunity that requires you to purchase large amounts of inventory. This is called front loading, and it’s illegal. There’s no need to stockpile products with a Legitimate Home Business .

2) Why Do I Have to Start a Home Business with Some Company?

You don’t. You could start a home business from scratch. Then you’ll have to deal with Small Business Problems associated with a traditional “brick-and-mortar” business. Other Home Business Models provide franchise-like opportunities that allow you to take advantage of already established companies, products, distribution methods, and business systems. You get Leverage and Synergy from not having to start from scratch.

3) Will I Need to Store Products and Then Deliver to My Customers?

Absolutely not. That’s exactly the leverage provided by a home business. All you have to do is refer customers. The company takes care of the rest – inventory, packaging, delivery, billing, customer service, etc. You then receive a commission check for each customer you refer. With Network Marketing , you also receive a commission check from every one below you in your sales organization.

4) Do I Have to Work Full-Time to Make Money?

No. In fact, most home business owners devote only a small part of their time every week to their businesses.

5) This Is Another Get-Rich-Quick Scheme, Right?

Wrong! Congress has passed laws and the Supreme Court has ruled that there are Five Categories of legal home business models. Those who get the facts about legitimate and reputable home business opportunities will discover that they are solid, long-term businesses.

6) A Home Business isn’t a Real Business, Is It?

Yes, it is! Just because people work from home part-time does not mean their businesses aren’t real. The Home Business models of Affiliate Reseller Programs , Network Marketing , and Internet Marketing exist in at least 125 countries and have exceeded $100 billion in sales globally driven by over 50 million independent distributors worldwide (according to the Direct Selling Agency). That’s some real business.

7) Isn’t Network Marketing Just a Pyramid Scheme?

No, it’s not. There is a significant difference between a pyramid scheme (Illegal) and a pyramid structure ( Perfectly Legal ). Every corporation and business in the world uses a pyramid structure – a “chain of command”. People at the top of the pyramid are making money from the efforts of those below them in the pyramid. A pyramid scheme occurs when there is no product or service provided and people are just “signing up” and putting money into the scheme. The Supreme Court ruled in the 1979 case of Amway vs. FTC that the network marketing business model is perfectly legal.
