Ground Floor vs Established Company

If you are in the process of trying to find the best home based business for you you’re going to be faced with a lot of different choices. One of the biggest things you will have to decide is if you want to go with an older more established company or a newer ground floor company. There are pros and cons to each decision and it will be up to you to decide what’s best for you. This article is designed to give you the information you need to make an informed decision.

Many people are of the opinion that an older more established company is going to be your best choice. Their reasoning is that if a company has lasted 5, 10 or 15 plus years it must be a good opportunity right? In many ways that is absolutely true the chances of an older company going out of business after 10 years or so is very unlikely. Another great thing about an older company is that there will be plenty of training and success stories available to you when you get started.

The downside of an older company is that most people who are making the big bucks are people who have been in the company for a very long time. This is of course not always the case and it is completely possible to come into an older company and make a very large income, it’s really up to how hard you are willing to work.

The upside to starting in a newer company is that the opportunity is wide open. The market hasn’t been saturated and there is a good chance that if you work hard you could be one of the top earners since there are fewer people in the beginning. This is a huge draw for many people who are hungry to get in in the beginning and have the biggest opportunity possible.

The downside to a new company is that if they aren’t run the right way they might not be around forever and that can be scary for some people. Another down side is that there aren’t going to be as many tools to help you succeed right away and you certainly won’t have as many success stories at least not for a while.

If you’re a risk taker who wants to make the most money possible and enjoys breaking new ground than a ground floor opportunity is probably right for you. If you’re looking for a more sure thing with more support an older more established company is probably more your style.

Choose the company that is best for you but just know that whatever opportunity you choose the key to success really lies with you!
