Finding a good online business?
As a young kid, I was an army brat living in a small rural Oklahoma town where I remember creating my own childhood adventures!
While my dad spent long days doing what soldiers do, I spent long days discovering the countryside and inventing new ways to occupy my time.
In the “old days” when there were no PC computers, cell phones and other electronic gadgets, kids like myself actually played outside all day long.
What a novel idea!
One hot summer day I was on an usual journey; playing along the banks of a creek that passed through our neighborhood playground.
Little did I know, my young brain would be shocked when I walked upon a large dead horse laying in the water!
As a young kid, I never saw a dead horse and didn’t think they could die!
That might be the way you feel about your current favorite online business.
… And It might be just as dead as that horse!
But you just keep on “riding a dead horse”, probably because it’s become a comfortable routine!
… However; you’re not getting anywhere.
So, how do you know when it’s time to declare your biz a dead horse?

5 questions to examine your online biz!
Below are 5 things you need to examine if your Internet program, product or service is worth your time:
Here are 5 basic questions you should ask before joining an online program?
What is the product?
Who are the owners?
Is there training and support?”
How do I get paid?
Determine the potential of this business.
Examine these four questions to determine a healthy online business. I added the fifth question which I think is very important to determine whether a certain online business is fit for your goals.
There is a more thorough article on these four topics at the FOLLOWING LINK.
But I will give my take on question 5: Determining the potential of the business.
First look briefly at the first four questions.
#1: “What is the product?”
This is the FIRST thing you should ask yourself, and it is the simplest of four questions to answer.
Use the guideline established by the U.S. Federal Trade Commission: “Would the average person buy this product if there were NOT a money-making opportunity attached to it?”
In other words, is there a value to the product all by itself?
#2: “Who am I dealing with?”
By investigating and finding out exactly who you are dealing with will often tip you off as to how much success you can expect from this business.
Find out how long the company has been in business?
#3: “How do I get paid?”
As an affiliate do you know how to get paid?
Many program owners make it hard to find out how much commission you can make and how to claim it.
Sometimes it’s also difficult to find on their website.
#4: “Is there training and support?”
Try and find out how good their training and sport is before you join the company.
Contact of support and see how responsive it is.
Ask them a question you don’t understand about their business.
That usually will give you a very good indication of what kind of business you are dealing with.
#5: “Determining the potential of the business.”
Business potential often seems like a no brainer when it comes to online business.
Why?
Because; most online business is so OVERHYPED, we often just put in the back of our mind that this race horse is going to make me millions!
But, you can be working a good solid online business that only has the potential to make the average affiliate $1000 monthly while you are expecting to make one million monthly!
So make sure you’re not giving all your 100% effort into a business to support your family that only has the potential to feed your pet mouse.
Look at the TOP EARNERS in this business and consider sending an e-mail and see if you get some feedback on the financial expectations that are realistic.
Also investigate timelines.
How much time do you have to put into the business?
How much time can you in expect to reach a certain financial level?
What does the average affiliate make?
You can also read the following BLOG to get a little more information on the same topic.
I hope this will help increase your chances of choosing a business that can help you to be successful!
