I have been a home based business owner long enough to know that success happens for number of reasons. Let me give you a quick success formula that I think is necessary in any top home based business opportunity.

1. Your attitude. You will ultimately determine how successful your business becomes.

This can be affected by what is going on in your life right now. Many times people think they want to be successful when they are just not ready for one reason or another.

2. A quality product. It is very difficult to build a profitable business with a poor product. Hopefully you believe in the product you are selling and are purchasing it from yourself.

3. Good marketing skills. This will include using Internet marketing in one or more ways.

Selling products and promoting home based business opportunities online takes some marketing ability. This is something you can learn how to do and hopefully you will get very good at it.

4. Excellent compensation plan. The whole point of building a business is to make money at it.

Any opportunity should include a compensation plan that allows you to make top profits on every sale you make. Some opportunities may also include recruiting and earning money on either affiliates or a network marketing downline.

If you add all these together you really have what is necessary to build a successful business. I call this my top home based business opportunity success formula because if you leave any of these elements out chances are your business will fail.
