You're looking for a list of the top network marketing companies. Why? Are you thinking about joining a network marketing company? Are you hoping that finding the best MLM company will increase your odds of success?
It's certainly a key factor in network marketing success. Let's talk about what to look for when choosing MLM companies.
The first thing to evaluate is the product industry. Ask yourself whether this industry is growing or dying. And will the industry continue to grow for at least the next decade? An industry like health and wellness, that's vitally impacted by the aging Baby Boomer generation, is a good bet for growth and longevity.
Timing is also important. Don't join a company less than two years old. Give the company time to get past the start-up phase and see if they make it to the growth phase. Once a company is earning at least $50 Million per year, you can feel more comfortable that the company is stable and is more likely to survive.
It's also wise to look at the company founders and leaders. Who are they? What are their track records? Have they had success in business before? Do they have experience in the network marketing industry? You want a leadership team with solid experience in the industry, no business failures, and high moral and ethical standards. Do your homework on this one.
Then take a look at the product. We talked earlier about evaluating the product industry. But you should also look at the product. Is it something you have passion for? Is the product something you would buy even if you weren't required to in order to meet your monthly autoship requirements?
If you wouldn't use the product personally, then you should probably pass on the company. How can you encourage others to consume the product if you can't get behind it?
In 2006 one industry insider reviewed 400 network marketing companies against these criteria, among others. His list of the top 10 network marketing companies is:
1. XanGo
2. Tahitian Noni
3. Usana
4. NuSkin/Pharmanex
5. Isagenix
6. Melaleuca
7. FreeLife
8. Herbalife
9. Univera (Oasis)
10. Amazon Herb
So you've done a thorough evaluation of these top network marketing companies and picked the best company for you. Are you guaranteed success? Not at all.
There are other factors in network marketing success, such as a capable upline that's willing to coach and train their downline. You want to duplicate their success so they must be willing to teach you their system.
And using a lead generation system that attracts pre-sold prospects is vital. Traditional recruiting methods such as making names lists, the 3-foot rule and endless hotel meetings don't target pre-qualified prospects.
These methods operate under the false assumption that "everyone is your prospect." Using the Internet to find pre-qualified prospects, rather than chasing anyone with a pulse, is a far more successful method.
