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.
To your lifetime success,
