Fulfillment and Low Cost in Network Marketing

There are many advantages to a network marketing business that people something overlook when they are busy passing judgment on them. Two of them are low cost of entry and fulfillment.

Legitimate network marketing companies typically have a comparatively low cost of entry. Most network marketing businesses can be started for less than $500. Would someone like to point out other types of businesses you can start for less than $500? Certainly not 'brick and mortar' businesses. Last time I looked at the cost of franchises, I quickly gave up. A few years ago I looked into a UPS Store franchise. The cost to start was around $300,000! Now you might say starting a business on eBay is one that can be done for under $500. And yes that is generally true.

However, that leads to the next point. Almost all network marketing companies ship and send the products for you (fulfillment). With a business like eBay, you are usually stuck with job of packing up the orders and mailing them off. Furthermore, you are usually in charge of customer service problems that arise from the various orders. That's another aspect that is generally always handled by the network marketing company itself.

Both of these points contribute to the reason that network marketing is a good option for seniors. Seniors with limited income may not have a lot of money to start up a business and network marketing offer that incredibly low cost of entry for them. Furthermore, many seniors aren't able to get around well enough to do the grunt work of shipping packages all day long.

With fulfillment services and customer service being provided by the network marketing company, you are left with time to work the core of the business without being tied down to shipping and customer service. Spend that time building relationships with customers rather than dealing with their shipping problems.
