FOUR THINGS TO DO BEFORE STARTING YOUR OWN INTERNET BUSINESS

Starting a business, whether Internet or offline business, is always difficult. And the most difficult stage is the stage where you are faced with the decision on what steps to take first. You have heard that so much money is made from Internet business; in fact you have even seen people make money from it, and as the days go by, you seem to desire this business more, yet you have no single idea what your first step should be. I totally understand how you feel because I was once in your shoes.
The truth is that it happens to everybody. And no guru today will tell you a different story. Of course we are all humans and someone else in the past must have felt what you are feeling now. I will list the exact steps you need to take to be able to put your Internet business up.
1. GET A COACH-most people will not tell you this, but I can stake anything for its result. It does not fail. There is nothing as good as having an experienced person in the business teach you how to do it.
But how do you get one? Almost anybody who has heard that people make money from the Internet heard it from somebody. It is beyond what you just stumbled into on the Internet. Yeah, there are times people just stumble into sites where they see sales pages advertising books or other products and such pages usually come with testimonials of people who may have made money from the products being advertised. And even in such cases, most testimonials come with the contact address of the testifiers. The most important step you will need to take is to contact somebody who is already into Internet business. This step will save you so much cost in the long run. If he is to be paid, please pay him. He will guide you, leading you by the hand every step of the way, until you start succeeding. This is your surest bet for success.

2. ASK YOUR COACH FOR THE RIGHT BOOKS TO READ-your coach would have known the reliable authors in the industry. And he will be the one to recommend the right books for you to buy. If you just get out to buy books on your own, you might end up buying junks.
NB: The major problem is not the books you will buy because most of the books come with money-back guarantee and the authors will refund you once you ask.
Read the right books so you will be exposed to all the available information in Internet business. There is a learning curve, and your growth must be at a certain level before you can start doing something worthwhile (especially if you want to go into information selling, blogging, affiliate marketing, forex, etc). After reading, choose the area you want to go into (again, with the guidance of your coach).
3. CONSIDER YOUR STRENGTH WHILE CHOOSING A BUSINESS MODEL-if you do not have a computer and do not hope to buy one soonest would you fold your hands and watch till God-knows-when before you start doing something? No! You will need to choose an Internet business that will not need you to be with your own personal computer everyday. Or you will choose the one that will allow you to make use of a business center, but without burning your resources. In that case, forex trading is not an area to consider if you do not have computer. I think online survey; selling of pictures as well as freelancing can be done by anybody who does not have a computer of his own. Information selling can also be done, at least at the writing level, without your personal computer. But that will involve much labour- writing the manuscript and taking it to the typists to type for you. After the writing stage, you will need so much of the Internet to handle the conversion to PDF, packaging and even your simple-site designing. But a good coach or mentor can help you out in all these with helpful tips and guidelines.
4. BE READY TO START, MAKE MISTAKES AND LEARN FROM THEM-once you have done the above, go ahead and launch out. Bear in mind that there is no perfect work anywhere. Just start whatever you want to do and keep at it. If you make mistakes, be fast to correct them, learn from them and move on. Before long, you will perfect your style and become an established Internet businessman.

THE BASICS OF INTERNET BUSINESS RICHES

There are fundamentals in Internet business, which must be followed by every marketer for success to be achieved. These fundamentals are there in every aspect of the business you want to go into. Yes, there are some that you can start without necessarily following these fundamentals, but on the long run, if you would want to make it bigger than you started, these fundamentals will always surface and establish their relevance.

What are they?

I have a list of them here:

ü Your domain name: this is the name you want to use for your niche. It is like registering a company name, but this time it is on-line registration. For me, one of my domain names is www.internetrichpurse.com. It is a phrase of three words; “internet”, “rich”, and “purse”. Your domain name could be just anything. It is as simple as saying www.yourchosenname.com. This is the first fundamental. It distinguishes you and sets your name apart from any other name on the World Wide Web.

ü A site hosting company: this is like where the physical presence of your domain is established. If you register your domain name and end it there, then there is no way you will be able to use it for the display of your products and services. Once you register with a web hosting company, then you are ready to create the looks you desire to have your site have.

ü A web site: the combination of the first two makes the third one possible. Just take a look at www.internetrichpurse.com and see what it looks like. The physical thing you see there is the website. But before I got to that stage of putting up that site for the world to see, I had first registered the name with a domain registering company, and then paid a hosting company to host it for me. So where that website is hanging now is courtesy of the host company.

ü A list builder or manager: this is optional but very essential for a long-term success in your business. This is the act of using an auto responder to build the list of everybody who visits your site. The idea is for you to keep a track of them, send them messages from time to time, and eventually have them patronize you in the future. If you cannot afford it for a start, then ensure you get it as soon as you start making money.

The above are the basics. They are needed for every model of business you want to do on the Internet. And just like I mentioned at the beginning, there are businesses that do not need these basics for a start ( businesse like selling of pictures, freelancing, on-line surveys), but that is because you are going to operate under the cover of other people who had long put up their businesses using these fundamentals; yet as you progress and want to expand in them, you may have the need to stand out and just build your own sites for the purpose of giving these services rather than just being part of the larger crowd who rely on other people’s systems.

The first three will not cost you money as a beginner since you can use Google blogger to build a blog that will do the work of a paid website. In making the above statement, I’m considering the fact that you need to start up immediately without giving the excuse of lack of money. At the long run however, it is advised that you consider paying for these things and getting your website hosted by a good web hosting company. There are so many advantages in this approach compared to the free ones. But for a start, the free ones are just okay. The blog you are in now is a free one and I’m sure you get what you are looking for, each time you visit. I also make money from it because I know how to use blogs to make money.

Just follow the fundamentals, and your business will take care of itself.

THE INTERNET MILLIONNAIRE MODEL

Being an Internet millionaire is not difficult but just plain planning. I have always had to wonder why people tend to believe more in jobs than in their personal businesses and the ability their businesses have to transform them to financial giants. I have studied different people over time and one thing is common to them as far as creating wealth is concerned: it is accumulated over time-some long, some medium, while very few for short periods.

Making yourself a millionaire from your Internet business could just be compared to a progressive minded employee who started planning his exit strategy from the first day. The only difference is that the employee might start earning from the first month while you may not. But if you start taking the right action from when your first check starts coming in, then you can always beat the employee, any day.

If you earn $1000 per month from your Internet business, then you are like a new bank employee who is earning the same amount per month ( and most of them earn that as beginners). After about two years, he is promoted to a new level of, say, $2000 per month. And if you started well and know what you are doing, then at the long run, whomever you started with, as an employee cannot see your back.

You simply cannot be earning $2000 per month after having been in Internet business for two years. It’s impossible. (Again, that is if you know what you are doing).

Ok. Let us calculate it. You started first earning $1000 per month as an affiliate, or a blogger or an on-line survey expert or a picture seller. Just one business line. (I choose affiliate marketing). You will be the one doing the bulk of the job; no much money to throw around, so you could not outsource. But after about six months of consistently earning $1000 per month, you have got enough cash to hire ghostwriters to do some of your writing work while you take time out to research a new niche and explore it. You start your operations in the new niche (and remember your old business is still up and running, needing less and less of your presence) and you start making about $500 after the first two months of operating in that niche. You are still working in it seriously and in the next two months your earnings increase to $1000. (This is a conservative estimate, but whoever follows it is surely on the pathway to wealth.).

At a stage, you may want to also outsource in your new business and you research another niche and enter into it. And before long again, you are making another $1000 per month. The whole of this process is taking place just within 14 months! And you are nearing a monthly earning of $3000 per month. You may want to keep it there for your on-line businesses and look into offline investments. As you earn per month, you subtract your expenses and know how much to invest and how much to save and also how much to re-invest in your on-line business.

May be you will need to calculate this process and its entire multiplying effect for five years and tell me where you will be financially. And the sweetest part of it is that anybody can achieve this. If you desire this kind of wealth, please start one Internet business today and send me your testimony in three months time.
