Ground Floor Opportunities
Posted in Watkins Business by Eldon on August 31st, 2006 What about “getting in on the ground floor” with a new startup company?
That’s a gamble. If you go in knowing the odds and have both spare time and discretionary funds available, it is possible that working a startup business can be rewarding. After all, every solid and established network marketing company today was a startup at one time. However, even the most promising new opportunities can go bust in a relatively short time. This can happen due to poor management, products of inferior quality or marginal appeal in the real world, or even explosive growth! That’s right, a new opportunity can collapse if sales growth outpaces the company’s ability to grow and adjust to the demand.
A good opportunity will still be a good opportunity after the “ground floor” stage if all the right elements are in place. And the reverse is true; if the opportunity exists only for a short time, the company won’t have the longevity to provide you with a long-term income. Be diligent, and choose your business carefully! I recommend looking for a company that has been in business a minimum of two years as a reasonable starting point in your search.
