It is the dream of many people to setup and run a successful online business and live the Internet lifestyle. But most people that start online businesses fail. They do not use the right approach to setting up their online business and making it a success.
To create a successful online business you have to know what works and what doesn’t. It is much tougher to start and maintain a successful online business than most people think. This guide will explain the right approach to use to maximize your chances of success.
We have worked hard to provide you with everything that you need to know about starting an online business and making it a success. You will find it an easy and engaging read and we encourage you to read it from start to finish and then start to implement the tips and advice you find here.
You will learn what successful online business owners do to ensure their success. Avoid the mistakes that the majority of new online business owners make by following the methods outlined in this guide.
Why should you start an online business as opposed to a conventional brick and mortar business? There are a few good reasons for doing this:
• It costs a lot less to start an online business
• You do not need to hire any staff
• You do not need an office or other commercial premises
• You can start an online business today
• You just need a computer or mobile device and a connection to the Internet
• Work from anywhere
• Set your own hours
• People are used to making purchases online these days
• You do not need any technical skills
• You can outsource different tasks to freelancers
If you wanted to open a shop in a mall then you would need a lot of money to do this. You have to provide stock for your shop and pay commercial rent. Someone has to take care of the shop and if this is not going to be you then you will have to hire people.
You will also need to advertise your shop. If you are in a busy mall then you will get some potential customers walk in out of curiosity. But to do really well you need to do a lot of marketing to get people to your shop.
Of course you will need to advertise your online business as well and we will cover this in a later section in this guide. But it is easier to market an online business than it is a brick and mortar business and your reach is much larger. You can literally sell your products and services to the world with an online business.
Work your Online Business Part Time
You can start your online business from home. There are many owners of 6 figure online businesses that work from home. They do not need an office and they are able to work the hours that they choose.
If you have a job that pays the bills at the moment then we recommend that you keep this and develop your online business in your spare time. This can be tough if you have a family but talk to them and explain that things will be better in the near future. You need your family onboard with what you are doing.
It is not easy working a full time job and then switching on your computer to start working on your online business. You need a great deal of commitment and motivation to do this and in a later section we will discuss setting goals for your online business and ways that you can drive yourself to take action.
Unfortunately, a lot of people that start online businesses fail. There are no published statistics on the reasons for this but one of the main ones is very likely to be that they did not take their online business seriously.
Because there is a low barrier to entry from a financial point of view, many people will give up if they do not get the results that they are looking for. They put in the time and effort initially to get everything set up, and then lose interest quickly after that. We do not want this to happen to you.
There are no Push Button Miracles
There is a great deal of hype around making money online and running an online business. New products launch all of the time claiming that they will show you how to make a fortune overnight with a few clicks of your mouse.
This is totally untrue. It takes time and effort to create a 6 figure online business. Some of these products rely on loopholes that are eventually closed which means that your income will cease. You want to build a sustainable online business.
Don’t be fooled by the hype. You cannot generate buyer traffic to your offers in less than a minute.
This is ridiculous. There is no software out there that is going to magically turn your computer as an ATM. It is amazing that these product vendors get away with these wild claims.
A few years ago there were a number of scams on the Internet where people lost a lot of money and received nothing, or next to nothing in return. Over the years these have disappeared but you can never be too careful. If you are thinking of buying a product or service to help you with your online business then check it out thoroughly first.
Get started with a Domain Name and Hosting
If you are serious about your online business (which you need to be) then you need your own domain name. There are free services out there that you can use to create a website such as Blogger.com, WordPress.com and Weebly.com. Unless you are really strapped for cash we advise you not to use these services.
The reason for this is that people are a lot more Internet savvy than they used to be. They know that Blogger is a free website service and if you launch your business on a free platform like this then you are just going to look cheap.
You have to sell things to create a 6 figure online business. Trying to sell products and services from a free website is not going to work well. It is very important that you invest in a domain name and some web hosting.
You can get a .com domain name from Namecheap.com for less than $10 a year. There are many web hosting companies out there and you need a web host to make your website live on the Internet. You can get web hosting starting from $5 a month. It is important that the webhost you choose offers you a number of different features that we will explain in the section about setting up your website. For now we just want you to accept that having your own domain name is the best way to go. If you were setting up a conventional business it would cost you thousands. For an online business you can start with a $10 a year domain name and $5 – $15 a month web hosting. Make the right impression from the start.
In the next chapter we will discuss the different online business models that you can choose from… What kind of online business do you want to start? There are several ways that you can go with an online business. All of the models we cover in this section have the potential to provide a 6 figure business. You need to choose the one that you are most comfortable with.
A word of warning here – flitting around from one model to another is never going to turn out well. Many newcomers to online business start with one model and because they are not getting the results that they want they shift to another. There is always going to be someone that tells you that the grass is greener over here.
Once you have chosen your online business model you need to master it. There are always new things to learn about online business and it will be virtually impossible for you to keep up with all of the changes if you are dabbling with more than one model. So make your choice and stick to it. What Niche do you want to be in?
There are literally thousands of niches where you can create a 6 figure online business. If you are an expert in a particular niche then this is always a good place to start. It doesn’t matter if you are not an expert in a chosen niche because you can always learn. When choosing a niche you need to consider two things:
1. Is there a big demand?
2. Is there money in the niche?
Both of these are very important. You do not want to enter a niche where there is little demand. You may be interested in a particular topic, but if nobody else is then your online business will fail. We suggest that you choose an evergreen niche. This is a niche where the demand is always there 365 a year, every year.
