Using Common Sense to Judge A Business Model

Posted: Sep 28, 2010 |
Daily you receive a ton of email and many include work related opportunities or job offers. Some are valid , many aren't. Once you get an offer how to do you evaluate the honest ones from the fake ones?

Business hasn't really changed in the past hundred years. The ideas that worked then still work today. The significant difference is that automation has changed to give us a significantly new set of circumstances. The way things are implemented have changed in truly fundamental ways.

When you get an offer for employment or a business opportunity, you need to use some common sense to classify it. Let's look at an example I got just a while ago. The email came with an offer for an awesome job doing nominal work.

The email came with the proper headers and footers. It didn't register on my email's automatic warning system as being faked. It was delivered in a neat and professional manner.

It presented the reasons an US citizen was required, what the minimal requirements were and offered a huge financial opportunity. The estimated income was between eightyfive and ninetyfive thousand annually. Only enough information was given to whet your appetite though. None of the details were present to make a real judgement on it.

I sent off for more information as I was curious the approach they were going to take. With today's economic slowdown and unemployment rate, this offer would catch a lot of people's eyes.

Here is where common sense starts to kick in though. On the reply email the address was not the company that sent the email. It was an email from a free email service. This should be the first alarm flag that comes up.

When a business doesn't have a website or official email address, they may not be a legitimate business. Even if you are running a very small or start up business, you should have your own website and emails. You can get one for less than $100 a year.

The company claimed to be based in the England

So now that our attention is raised, lets look for other things that are off in the offer. Once I got the second email, the situation became much clearer. The offer made was clearly looking to hook people into the scheme. It would end up with a lot of people being hurt financially if they followed through on it.

You should find more information about Fort Global Solutions before taking them up on anything.

I won't got into the full details of the offer as I have it posted on my blog. You can find a link to it below. I will say that using some common sense it was obvious that the offer was not a real one. Don't get fooled by things that appear to be too good to be true. Often they truly are.

    The key reason why some firms thrive while some implode during an financial recession is still a puzzle to many people business-owning business owners. Some wrongly assume that all businesses should suffer via recessionary cycles. But the truth is that some companies are usually essentially recession-proof, and it is not necessarily because they are much larger, better known, or a lot more generously capitalized.
