================== ARTICLE START ==================
Commonly referred to as multi-level marketing, network
marketing is a concept where individuals come together with a
parent company and act as independent contractors in the sales
of a product or service. In return for helping to promote and
sell the parent company�s product or service, individuals are
financially compensated in an amount that has already been
determined. The actual amount of compensation will vary from
one network marketing opportunity to another and will be
strictly dependant upon the company�s policy.

A legitimate network marketing opportunity will not grant money
for recruiting new members, which are required to pay sign-up
fees. Instead, they should be paid based on the commissions
that they earn from the sale of a product or service. One of
the main problems that many network marketing companies face is
their comparison to illegal pyramid scams. However, there are a
large number of legitimate network marketing companies that
operate regularly in every state and in dozens of countries.
Today, they are commonly referred to as affiliate marketing or
programs.

The best way to distinguish a legitimate network marketing
program from a fraudulent operation is through the company�s
policy. First and foremost, questionable operations will
require high entrance fees and/or the requirement for members
to purchase expensive products. Typically, these types of
companies fail rapidly when the merchandise cannot be resold
for profit, which leaves the members in financial distress and
the founders with a large bank account.

With the increasing popularity of the internet, it is important
that entrepreneurs be able to recognize the differences between
a legitimate and fraudulent company. As a general rule,
affiliates should never have to pay a sign-up fee in order to
help a company sell it�s products. Simply put, it makes no
sense to pay money in an effort to help someone else promote
and sell their products. Instead, it is more realistic that the
sign-up be free and the individual be paid based on the sales
that they generate for the company.

The majority of large internet retailers offer affiliate
programs, which allow members to track their commissions and
log in to their account at any time. One of the best ways to
ensure a network marketing opportunity is legitimate is to know
the parent company�s reputation by checking with the Better
Business Bureau and through speaking with other entrepreneurs
and gaining feedback on their experiences. Every day,
individuals find great success or simply a way to earn extra
cash through a combination of the internet and a legitimate
network marketing opportunity.
