Most MLM experts agree that you must have adequate margins to pay commissions and to make a profit.

Obviously, your cost of goods is calculated as your acquisition or manufacturing cost. The more frequent question involves pricing. Most MLM experts agree that you must have adequate margins to pay commissions and to make a profit. Different products and services carry different profit margins. In addition, smaller margins may be satisfactory with high-priced products because there is still room for profit. Most MLM companies are likely to pay total commissions equal to between 30 and 45 percent of price sold to distributors for resale, or prices for which consumers buy directly from the company. A typical company will try to achieve a minimum 5-7 times markup to allow for commissions, overhead and profit. Typical mark up for resale by distributors is 25% of their purchase price. A good place to visit this issue is at the Starting and Running the Successful MLM Company Conference, offered by www.mlmlegal.com, where experts discuss margins, pricing, profit, proformas, and more for executives of startup and existing network marketing companies.

MLMLegal.com has launched the Innovation Campaign for its February 2014 MLM Startup Conference. Read how to get your two free tickets by clicking HERE!

MLM companies with tangible personal property sales register to collect and remit sales and use tax. Services are generally not taxed, but more states are proceeding in this area. Your CPA will be able to track rates, classifications, and applicability, as well as handle registrations. He/she can also advise similarly on a few states that have been more aggressive, such Washington with its business and occupation tax, or Texas and Pennsylvania with their franchise tax.

Hi, I’m Jeff Babener of MLMLegal.com and I would like to talk to you today about MLM business experience. Do you possess it already or should you buy it?

Multilevel marketing is not just any business. It is not retailing, franchising, e-commerce, the internet, or .com selling.

Multilevel marketing, under all its names: direct selling, network marketing, direct sales, party plan, and multilevel marketing, is a unique beast. To launch this business you must have a substantial background in direct selling and be well grounded.

There are written and unwritten principles. If you know your product and you have a passion to bring it to the public, but you lack industry experience, then you must buy that experience. You may hire key employees in such positions as CEO, COO, sales, marketing, customer service, and distributor relations, etc. The payroll will add up fast, and unless your capitalization can sustain the ongoing cost, you should seriously consider outsourcing the solutions for this type of expertise.

The first suggestion that I would make is for you to consult with you MLM attorney, who is familiar with the best resources in the business. Such established industry experts in areas of MLM startup implementation, compensation plan design and software selection are often invaluable assets to your business team. Above all, don’t launch your company without in-house or outsourced MLM business experience.

Wishing you the best in your MLM business, I’m Jeff Babener.

LAS VEGAS, Jan. 16, 2013 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — The conference will be held February 21 & 22, 2013, which is quickly approaching!

For more than 25 years, leading industry experts have educated the executives of starting and existing MLM, direct selling, network marketing, and party plan companies on how to structure their compensation plans, legalize their companies, recruit key employees and top-ranking distributors, develop business models, generate leads, fund their business, establish their website and technology platforms, better understand the direct selling industry, and so much more.

The next MLM Startup Conference takes place February 21 & 22, 2013 in Las Vegas. View the conference flyer page at http://www.mlmlegal.com/srs2.html to learn more.

This is the original MLM Startup Conference – responsible for launching many industry-leading companies – perfected over the course of a quarter of a century to ensure the highest quality of information, the most knowledgeable experts, and the most practical advice from qualified experts.

Over the course of two days, attendees will hear from scores of industry experts, and if they choose to, can sign up to meet with the speakers for individual one-on-one time. A full list of speakers and their biographies/credentials can be found at http://www.mlmlegal.com/bio.html.

The educational information gained by attending this event is invaluable. Here are just a few of the testimonials from past attendees:

We have a traditional business at the moment and we are looking to take it into the realm where it’s more personalized, it’s more about building people and an experience. It has been absolutely worth our trip. We are looking to take our business to the next level and build relationships.

The reason I came to the show was to learn more about how to launch my direct sales company. I’m very comfortable and accustomed to selling through more traditional networks; however, I believe that the product that I’m launching is more suitable for direct sales; to get direct-to-consumer faster and in greater sales.

[I’ve] been in network marking for 30 years [but] we are learning a lot of things about how to launch, how to reach the people we need to have, and again, the things that are required to make a successful company, not only for us but especially for our customers and for our affiliates.

Each attendee will receive a FREE copy of the Starting and Running the Successful MLM Company Manual.
