Top 6 Conditions To Consider In Choosing A Good Business




1) Does the business idea have a USP (unique selling
proposition)?

Essentially, why will this business'products/services be better than any of the other competitors out there?

If you're evaluating an affiliate program or MLM, be sure that the product / service you'll be reselling has a USP. 

You also need to make sure as the reseller, that you can position yourself with your own unique selling proposition as to why the buyer should buy from you rather than another
affiliate or distributor.

2) Is there a market for the business idea?

Can you identify the people to whom you will be selling the products/services of your business? Is it a sizable marketplace? 

Make sure that the business has a large target audience base.
3) Is there a demand for the business idea?

Do people want the product/service you will be selling?
Keep in mind, want and need are different. 

While you might think people need your product, e.g. it saves time sorting spare change, if it is not something people want, it will not sell. 

Make sure people WANT what your business will be offering.
4) Will the business idea make money?

Will the profit margin on the items you're selling cover expenses. Beyond the actual product / service cost, you have to consider the multitude of miscellaneous expenses like rent, phone, employees, internet, ect.. 

And your biggest expense will likely be marketing - you need to determine when you advertise will you generate enough sales to cover expenses and make a profit.

5) Can you afford the costs involved in starting up?

Most business ideas require an initial investment of either material, equipment, programming or time. Do you have the money and time to invest in the project? 

You also will need to be able to sustain the new business for several months and in some cases even years before it actually becomes profitable. 

Make sure you have the money and are ready for the necessary sacrifices.
6) Will you enjoy the new business idea?

In reality this question is the most important of all I've listed and should be answered first. You must, and I repeat must, make sure you become involved in a business you enjoy. While you might think money will be enough of a motivator, it is not.

You will never stick with a business you dislike when times become tough. And, even if the business becomes a huge success if you dislike it, it will drag you down and you will eventually quit.

So, make absolutely sure you like the business idea and
that you really WANT to do it. 

It's essential that you enjoy what you do!
