The Business Opportunity Connection has evolved since its launched in mid-February, 2005, but our primary goal is still the same: to provide news and information about home based business opportunities and tips on generating leads for your direct sales team.

We offer tips and tools to start and build a home-based direct sales, party plan business, with a focus on Internet marketing and resources.

If you are just starting out and looking for the right company to join, start with the Business Ideas section for help with identifying and narrowing down your choices.

Company News will help keep you in the know about what’s happening with some of the major players and even some of the lesser known companies.

For help with recruiting and motivating consultants in your downline, take a look at the Team Building category, which includes topics such as “helping team members succeed” and “balancing sales and sponsoring.”

The Marketing category includes topics like, “The Differences Between Marketing and Selling,” “soft marketing,” and “viral marketing.”

In Writing and Content you’ll tips on writing your own website content and resources for content written by others.

The General category is basically the miscellaneous section and it includes a wide variety of topics including goal setting and staying motivated, writing website copy, customer service, stopping spam, and much more.

We strive to provide the information and resources you need and to that end we welcome your comments and suggestions. Feel free to leave a comment on any of the blog posts or contact us with suggestions.

Here’s to great teams!

  A Little About Me

I’ve been an active member of the work at home mom community since early 2002 when I began looking for a business to run from home. I worked in direct sales for a short time, ran a site offering chat rooms for work at home moms, and worked as an eBay trading assistant.

By August of 2003 I was providing website support services for other sites while branching out in other areas, and the following year iRepNetwork opened to begin providing a unique way to allow direct sales representatives make themselves available to immediately answer questions from home business opportunity seekers.

I hope to continue to expand services and support to moms and other entrepreneurs who are growing their businesses.
