With more and more people each year trying to make money online, companies like Empower Network have been able to build a substantial presence in the world of home based business. Today, we are looking at why this particular company may not be ideal for you.
Despite the legions of new home businesses which seem to be popping up by the day, over 80% of them fail. This makes choosing one quite difficult, so it is important that you take the time to look at the products and the overall opportunity rather than just the potential earnings on display.
More often than not, programs in this type of industry tend to fail within their first twelve months. Some of them simply are not built to last and run through an endless cycle of launching, disappearing and then reappearing under a new name with the exact same business model. What about this one?
We are going to explain the three most important aspects of any business in the affiliate marketing or direct sales industry, then we are going to see how this company fares with each aspect. Those three things are listed for you below.
* The product package.
* Affiliate program.
* The different forms of membership.
Most companies in this industry tend to over-focus on the affiliate side of their business and neglect the products and services. They know that the main reason most people are joining is to build an income, so they play to that crowd. However, it gives non-earning members no reason to pay their membership fee and, as a result, you see the common domino effect which has every paying affiliate slowly dropping out from the ground upwards. Companies are starting to pay a little more attention to the services they provide and, usually, they will now include the option to join purely as a member for the product package if it is strong. []
With this particular company you will either notice a big attraction to the services on offer, or a slightly underwhelming feeling. It provides you with a blog.
It offers a blog which holds 'authority' status. Basically, this means that the main website of the company is frequently searched online and, as a result of it's popularity, you are able to piggyback that level of importance for your blog posts.
Of course, the importance of this authority status is largely overplayed on the home page and it is presented as the cure to all internet marketers' problems. It's important to remember that it isn't going to make you start dominating page one of highly contested search results overnight.
The affiliate plan adds another $20 to the monthly membership cost and it is not made clear on the homepage, leading to quite a few complaints from new members. The affiliate plan doesn't set the world alight, but is mainly going to be attractive to those who are looking for the ability to create an 'instant' income rather than working at it over time. This can also be seen as one of the major downfalls of the company, too.
Empower Network is best suited to those who believe that they can find a genuine use for the products they would receive as a member. As far as the affiliate plan goes, if you are trying to make money online you will easily find other companies who offer a very similar setup. This makes the final decision about how appealing you actually find the services they provide.
