A business opportunity (or bizopp) involves the sale or lease of any product, service, equipment, etc. that will enable the purchaser-licensee to begin a business. The licensor or seller of a business opportunity usually declares that it will secure or assist the buyer in finding a suitable location or provide the product to the purchaser-licensee. This is different from the sale of an independent business, in which there is no continued relationship required by the seller. ConceptThe use of a toll-free telephone number makes it difficult for customers to immediately identify the company's geographical location. Moreover, a company can own many 1-800 numbers, using a different one for each area in which it advertises. In the event of consumer complaints, this thwarts investigators from recognizing the connection between biz-ops listings in various newspapers. A common type of business opportunity involves a company that sells bulk vending machines and promises to secure suitable locations for the machines. The purchaser is counting on the company to find locations where sales will be high enough to enable him to recoup his expenses and make a profit. Because of the many cases of fraudulent biz-ops in which companies have not followed through on their promises, or in which profits were much less than what the company led the investor to believe, governments closely regulate these operations. Multi-level marketing is often presented as a business opportunity, such as the phrase, "Let me tell you about an incredible ground-level business opportunity." In the United States, the Federal Trade Commission receives complaints and helps coordinate enforcement action against fraudulent business opportunities. From Wikipedia under the

Q. I have heard so much about different types of online business "schemes", such as MLM, pyramid schemes, etc. that my head is spinning. I would like to work from home, at least part time, and want one that would generate passive/residual income. What should I avoid? Asked by ldhkah - Sat Mar 4 23:19:25 2006 - - 4 Answers - 1 Comments A. If it's on a TV commercial, it's questionable at best. The late night kind are the worst -- ones that promise huge incomes of $20,000 a month working part-time. Avoid them. Pyramid schemes usually don't work well either, internet or otherwise. Occasionally they may bring in some income, but it often involves a lot of hard work, typically of questionable ethics -- in other words, harassing a lot of people in different ways. If it's a business that could work well without the net, that's a start -- say, selling a certain specialty product. Think of the net as expanding your customer base. But be forewarned, there's no "easy" way to make money, even online. If it seems too good to be true, it probably is.
