Utah State University Extension EntrepreneurshipHome-Based Business and ClothingTextile Specialist. Business ventures require a lot of research and planning on the front end in order to be successful. success-ful. While there are many good business opportunities available, there are just as many schemes and scams. Estimates from the National Consumer League suggests sug-gests $200 billion is lost to scams and fraud each year. The Federal Trade Commission estimates each investor loses between $5,000 and $10,000. When researching potential business opportunities, keep the following in mind to avoid being a victim of a business busi-ness scam: - Check the promoter and business opportunity thoroughly. Call the State Attorney General, Secretary of State, Better Business Busi-ness Bureau and consumer protection pro-tection agencies in your state. They should know about any unresolved complaints about the company andor business opportunity. oppor-tunity. Remember, the absence of complaints does not necessarily mean the company is legitimate. Unscrupulous companies may settle complaints, change their names or move to avoid detection. detec-tion. - Don't judge a company based on appearances. Some of the biggest business schemes and. scams are slick and professional in their promotion tactics. - Ask for a disclosure document docu-ment if you are interested in a franchise. Be skeptical of companies compa-nies that do not have disclosure documents. - Avoid any programs or business opportunities that offer commissions to recruit new distributors-it could be a pyramid scheme. - Be cautious about references and testimonials-they could be phony or "shills" hired by the promoter. - To verify claims made by the company, ask for a list of previous investors or business owners. Talk with current owners of the business opportunity to see if their experience verifies the claims. Visit them in person at their business location rather than over the telephone. " f - Ask for all company claims, promises and policies in writing (including their refund policy). - Realize that trainers and consultants at high-pressure seminars are there to sell, not teach. - Ask companies to put claims regarding sales, profits and income in-come in writing. This should include the number and percent of others who have earned what the promoter claims. Be. aware that incomes vary with location, usage, products sold and product demand. The fact that one business busi-ness earned a "high" income in one location is no guarantee that it will do the same in another location. - Seek professional advice. Consult an attorney, accountant and business advisor before signing any agreement or contract or making any up-front payments. pay-ments. If the company requires a deposit, consider an escrow amount where the money will be maintained by a neutral third party.

"This home is called Cougar House I because we believe it will be the first of many homes built in a long-term relationship Health notes It's smart to use sunscreen, but not so smart if you don't also use some common sense. A recent survey by the American Academy of Dermatology shows that some parents who applied sunscreen to their children allowed al-lowed those children to be out in the sun longer than they normally would have. Health experts equate that behavior with a driver going faster just because she has anti-lock brakes. Remember that sunblock doesn't completely protect skin from the sun's harmful harm-ful rays. So take precautions to prevent skin damage, such as putting hats and protective clothing cloth-ing on your kids, and limiting your time in the sun to no more than two to three hours during the peak hours of 10 a.m. and 4 p.m. Also, reapply sunblock to yourself and your children according ac-cording to the directions on the bottle. Usually that's every few hours and after you've been in the water or have sweat a lot. A sense of humor is a sense of proportion.
