There are 8 important things to look for in an MLM company.

1. The key people in the management team must have at least 10 years of experience and have a successful track record to enable them to do the right things.

2. The company must have proprietary rights to the products and they must be of high quality, effective and affordable. Many companies have great products but the price are too high and the majority cannot afford it! For long term sustainable business, your products must be affordable or else you will lose a big chunk of the market!

3. The compensation plan must be designed by someone who has been there and done that and that is why it is very important to have top network marketing leaders in the management team who understand the soul and spirit of the business!

4. The right culture and support system. This business is driven by leaders and there is a saying: Birds of a feather will flock together! Good leaders will choose a good company to work with because they believe in doing the right thing! The system must be simple and duplicatable. The company must be able to leverage on a user-friendly internet system to help the leaders build a global business offline and online!

5. The products must have timing. Victor Hugo said: Nothing, not all the armies of the world can stop and idea whose time has come." And that idea is a simple, profitable and duplicatable home-based business that leverage on the latest internet technology that allows you to build a global business in the comfort of your home!

6. The wellness industry will be a trillion dollar industry by 2010 and that is only less than 3 years away! Just in USA alone there are over 75 million baby boomers who are concerned about their health and wellness and have the money to invest in health foods supplements, fitness club membership, accessories, etc. You have a ready marketing with the buying power! Is the company's products or services relevant to this booming trillion dollar industry?

7. Is the company expanding to Asia? Two Thirds of the population in Asia and the countries are growing and there is a huge demand for wellness products and services from the rapidly growing middle and upper class who have the buying power to give a big boost to companies who can offer them exciting products that is going to make a positive difference to their lives!

8. The integrity and wisdom of the management is critical to success because the products, compensation plan and support system are all linked to the management!
