People start businesses for all sorts of reasons and under widely varying circumstances.  I’ve posted this small business video on venture capital. Its actually a video interview with CEO of the company Adify.  He makes and interesting assertion toward the end of the video that deals more with small business philosophy and entrepreneurial attitude.

Not to spoil the move, but choosing to start a business that your geneuinely interested in is proven to be a key to long term success.  What makes a small business successful can be approached from a hundred different angles based in logic and passion, but I thought this was a universal key to success in business.

So there you have it, a good standard to choosing the best business to start is to find and idea that captivates you, one you think about in an interested and engaged way.  What business ideas or business start ups failed because they were to contrived and not “from true interest” enough?

I often wonder why the 95% failure rate of small business is (1) acceptable and (2) a reality?

I mean it really seems absurd, maybe the stats a bunch of bunk, not sure, I know I could, and have, cited many leading magazines and small business publications that almost “tout” the failure rate.

When I look in my community and in the circle of those I know that have started small businesses, almost always they were connected and saw the business idea as an extention, a natural one no less, of themselves.

Finding a legitimate turnkey business you can start from home that actually works and makes you some extra money is an exciting idea.  Thousand are searching for new ways to make money from home in the recent economic times and many are looking for legitimate ways to make money online.

Legitimate turnkey business ideas are really quite easy to spot.  Having been online and making money using the Internet for a couple years now, I thought I would lend some advice on spotting a legitimate turnkey business.  I guess it really comes down to trust.  Since I think there are smart ways (other than trust) to discern a business opportunities legitimacy I’d thought I’d share a couple.  First off here is an article from the government on detecting deception 

One way I can determine if a business opportunity is legitimate is to ask a few simple questions and then answer them, usually on my own.

• How is money made in the turnkey business?
• Where do I fit in, why or how is it that I’m needed.
• What do I actually have to do in order to make money?
• What is the product or service?
• Is the perceived value of the product or service in line with the actual price?
• Is the business just an opportunity to invest in someone else’s marketing system or is the legitimate turnkey business truly viable?

Another thing I have the benefit of doing is researching an opportunities marketing system. I know of several legitimate home businesses that have been marketed on the Internet for several years.  While they are legit, I’ve determined that the long term viability of the business just wasn’t there.

Having your own products or services can be a huge advantage for the best home based business, but it just isn’t for everyone, that’s were these turnkey businesses come into play.  At the end of the the day, most of these ideas are an opportunity for you do excel at sales or marketing or a combination of the two.  Some affiliate relationships can be basically be top sales jobs  in direct sales.

I think affiliate opportunities can be the best ways to make money online.  I don’t think affiliate money making ideas are for everyone.  Lets face it there is a lot to learn about websites, traffic, advertising, conversions, and much more.  If the business opportunity your evaluating requires and investment ask yourself what the investment is for and then decide if its worth it to you. 

One thing that I’ve found very valuable with a turnkey business idea is the training and knowledge I was able to acquire very quickly.

If your looking for a legitimate turnkey business make sure you:

1. Are provided a system you understand.
2. Have an idea of the budget needed to start and maintain the business.
3. Are provided with training from the very beginning.
4. Can work with others or have open communication with someone to assist you.
5. Are genuinely interested in the products or services you’ll be selling.
