Posts Tagged ‘Online Business’

Starting an Online Business can be an eye opening experience, or more likely, an eye popping experience for most people. With each idea or training technique or video I watch, yet another thought crosses my mind of an ever increasing way to move my business forward. They all sound great! I’ve read, taken notes, printed material after material, and read and reread article after article in hopes of gaining a greater understanding of this online marketing business thing. These so-called experts and their ideas on paper, excuse me, ideas online, are smothered on every site you visit, every search engine, download, even online video you come across. They all want the same thing, your undivided attention. In my humble opinion, some of these experts have extremely valuable information to pass on, and others are simply wasting your time. Or so, I first thought. Just maybe I am wrong. Maybe all the information, reviews, videos, downloads, and ideas from the experts could be of use to me in some minute way down the road in order for me to grow my business. I have done the research and continue to do so to this day as I write this article, and I believe because of this effort I will be successful.
In addition to what you take from the rest of the experts on the net, I have a few more ideas of my own I would like to pass on to you. I think you will like them. I call them my Four P’s for success. Set your mind totally focused on staying ahead of the game by exercising patience, a positive attitude, a passionate desire to learn, and a planned out execution to exceed your goals and success will come. Below I will share with you two of my Four P’s for success, exercising patience, and positive attitude in part one of two articles.
1) Exercising Patience
Patience, as defined in Wikipedia, is “the state of endurance under difficult circumstances which can mean persevering in the face of delay or provocation without becoming annoyed or upset.” I love the meaning used here when it says persevering in the face of delay. Well, each of us has faced a delay of some kind or another in respect to how quickly we expect to achieve a certain level of success. I am probably right when I say all of as entrepreneurs get into the next best Online Business in hopes of returning a profit as quickly as possible. Sure that would be great if we could just snap our fingers and have money start rolling in. For most starters, it doesn’t happen this way, and did not happen this way for me either. I have always said, “If you are making money too easily at the start, you probably are not going to be able to sustain it in the long run.” It just doesn’t happen that way under normal circumstances in any business for that matter. Do not ever let anyone ever tell you or make you think that running a business from home is easy because you are being fooled. Working your business requires you to be incredibly patient for those sales to begin rolling in. If you are able to exercise this type of patience I am referring to, you will be able to cope with your eventual success in time much better.
2) Positive Attitude
Now to attain the success you want, you must have a positive approach, or mind set with your Online Business. This is my next P for success, positive attitude. When I started my own Online Business, I, as most people are, was extremely skeptical in getting into something “foreign” with very little insight on what it took to run a business of this nature. Sure, you can do your homework, research what has claimed to work for others, read reviews on what is worth your time and money to get into, or may even know someone personally who has done well for themselves working from home. But, in reality, what may work for others may not work for you at all, right? Wrong, it just may! I believe it takes one characteristic as far as your approach to a new business, whether online or not, and that is a positive attitude. That is it! No matter what happens, no matter how long it takes you or you think it should take you, no matter what the obstacles you encounter, no matter what negative feedback you get thrown at you from others, no matter what failures you face, by keeping a positive outlook you can and will get through it. I do not care where you come from, or where you are now, this type of attitude is the key to being successful. As I said earlier, skepticism is the minds of just about everyone who thinks of getting into a new business, much less a business online. However, with a positive attitude you will be amazed at what you can accomplish and how pleased you will find your results to be.
I have outlined two of my Four P’s for success in any Online Business you venture to start or join. Patience during setbacks, and having a positive attitude in everything you do are vital to being successful. These Four P’s I believe will automatically put value in your business whether you are a beginner, intermediate, or expert online marketer. In addition to the training techniques, research, and information you have already gained from experts in the field, my Four P’s for success should help boost your business forward that much more. I hope you will try these Four P’s in your own Online Business and just maybe, as it has done for me, your experience will go from an eye popping one back to an eye opening one!

Internet Business Success Factors

Why Do A Few People Succeed While So Many Others Fail?

We’ve all heard about the huge amounts of money there is to be made on the Internet. At the same time we know that very few people who try to make money online actually succeed to the point of being able to support themselves and their families. So what is it that makes that difference between success and failure?

REALISTIC EXPECTATIONS

Websites promising overnight wealth are seductive, they assure us that no experience with business, hosting operations or technical jargon is necessary. Just buy their books, courses or videos and you too will soon be driving a $100,000.00 sports car, with just a couple of hours a day of work. Well it’s been said before and I’ll say it again “If it sounds too good to be true it probably isn’t”!

This is where successful people differ from the want-to-be’s. Like us they know that there is no such thing as overnight success. The difference is they resist temptation and look for solid opportunities. They are also willing to take the time to become successful. If it’s going to take 2 to 5 years to become wealthy so be it. When you stop to think about it, it takes 3 years to get through university and probably 2 – 4 years of working your way up in your career to a point where you are making a decent living. Why does 2 to 5 years seem like too much to invest to becoming wealthy? Even the people that are advertised as overnight successes usually spent years in trial and error efforts before they learned what worked, applied it for some time and then became successful. Does this mean it is not possible for us to make lots of money in an online business? Absolutely not! It just means it is not possible to make big money overnight.

SIMPLIFIED PROCESS

Psychologists tell us that “nothing succeeds like success” and this is especially true for successful entrepreneurs. What this means is that you start by building one small easy to set up, easy to manage business. Learn what works and what doesn’t in promoting your business. Then add to your small successful business making it a bigger successful business and add on to it again or add a second, third or fourth business. Going from making $500.00 per month to 5 million a year is all about building one success upon another adding layers of products and promotion and even new businesses every step of the way. While you’re earning you’re learning how to earn more and more.

Instead of spending enormous amounts of time and money going through the trial and error of establishing your own product, start building your success with a product that is a proven winner. Why reinvent the wheel when someone else has already done the market research, developed the product, written the sales copy and tested the waters. In the real world setting up a proven winner could be a franchise program. Everything is laid out for you and the smallest detail has been tested before you even begin. This is as close to a guarantee of success as you can possibly get. But a franchise can cost as much as $100,000.00 or more. Online you can have the same advantages of a proven winner with an affiliate arrangement and it doesn’t cost anything.

Other advantages to an affiliate business are that you don’t have to set up to accept payments, deliver products or warehouse inventory. You can arrange to become an affiliate for as many products as you want and multiply your income streams. But, the biggest advantage for a new entrepreneur is the simplicity of the business and promotion process.

Internet business can be complicated and confusing for those without any experience in the technical jungle. Starting off with the simplest format and the easiest promotional techniques allows you to learn while you earn. With a strong foundation business established you can delve into more complex business models with the money to hire experts and consultants to assist with the next success.

When putting a plan together to work on line, deciding what motivates you and creating a compelling vision that moves you towards it, it can be a useful exercise to dedicate some time defining what success will look like for you. If you haven’t looked at a plan for yourself you might find my article ” A strong beginning builds the foundation for a great ending” useful. For a few years now success for me has always been about following my heart, making a difference and living with passion. As long as I am doing one or all three of these things I am successful. What will success look like for you?
If you have been fortunate enough to discover what you are passionate about, your purpose in life, then you are truly blessed. Look at how you can use this to generate passive income. Getting paid doing something we love really puts the fun in work! Brainstorm ideas! Just write them all down. Start by saying ‘I am successful when’ then make a list and see what shows up. Give yourself some time to create this list and then move on to the next stage of this process that will help you define success.
Once you have completed that exercise take a look at your list and rate them on a scale of 1-10 (with 1 being not important and 10 being extremely important) rate your list and then select the top 7-10 (you can select as many as you like but I am using 7 as my example in this article)
Here’s an example for you :
I am successful when I am making people laugh (4 out of 10)
I am successful when I am making $10,000 a week (2 out of 10)
I am successful when I am doing something that inspires me (8 out of 10)
If you are unsure about which is the more important one, answer this question : If I can have x but I can not have y does that matter? So as an example, if I can have peace but I can not have money does that matter? Remember, this is a way of defining your success, so if doing something that inspires is more important then rate it higher than money; if not rate money higher. Go through each one until you have them in a 1-7 order.
Now create one or two sentences of what success means for you using your 7 key words in whatever order you like. So as an example if my key success words were:
1. peace
2. money
3. freedom
4. inspiration
5. making a difference
6. leaving a legacy
7. time for me
My sentence may say something along the lines of:
“Success for me is about having the inspiration, peace, freedom and flexibility to earn money while making a difference and leaving a legacy. My online business will provide me with time for me and my family.”
Defining success in this way is so very important because it is this definition of success that will keep you motivated when you want to give up. Once you have your definition of success the other thing you need is your business vehicle, the online business that will help you to achieve your vision. I discuss that in another article called ‘Driving the right vehicle to success’ and it is worth reading if you are still trying to figure out what business you want to use to run your internet based business.
So take action and create your definition of success because once you know what it is as long as your online business provides you with the opportunity to achieve it then you are successful. Even if you do not end up earning a six figure sum or becoming a ‘guru’ you are still successful in your own eyes. And they are the only eyes that really matter!

True success cannot be specifically defined for the masses because success can be defined quite differently by each individual. True success is subject to individual interpretation based on upbringing, past experiences, role models, personal motivations and goals.
Your view of true success will change at various times and with certain experiences throughout your life. For example, what might be deemed successful in college or on your first job is very different from successfully raising a family or comfortably retiring in the Bahamas. Accumulating a certain amount of wealth is one measure, but a successful marriage may be far more meaningful to many people.
Most people who achieve true success first define it then plan for it; they set a goal to achieve it. Once they define what it means to achieve true success, the next step is to set goals that will lead a person to his definition of success. Many people believe that true success is measured by the size of a bank account or a wall full of diplomas. But there is more to being successful than becoming a millionaire, achieving social status, or collecting degrees, certificates, or accolades.
Many people have been pursuing success for years and years. Others start towards it and seem to find it almost immediately. Success to most people occurs when they have an ongoing string of accomplishments. When put together, these accomplishments add up to a major obtainment in life known as Success. It is why some people explode out of the gates and create success easily, while others struggle all their life.
True success is almost a magical idea for a lot of people. Something born out of a fairytale. On the contrary, true success should be a realistic goal to reach if you take the correct pathway. Your initial pathway might consist of the following:
1. Create a realistic goal and have viable plans to achieve this goal.
2. List all the obstacles standing between you and the goal.
3. Take each obstacle one at a time.
4. Write one or more ways the obstacle could be overcome.
But these steps are just the beginning!
By simply taking these early steps, you will begin to realize that success is a process and not something accomplished with the wave of a magical wand.
True success is generous in nature. Those who allow their abundance to pile up and bring them a sense of false security will never find true success. But those who use their abundance to increase not only the joy in their lives but also in the lives of others by being generous are true success stories. I believe that the truly successful, those who will change the lives of others and leave a legacy, are the ones who are generous with their abundance. This is the hallmark of a truly successful person in life.
Success to most people is when you have an ongoing string of accomplishments- perhaps after many failures. When you put your accomplishments together, they add up to a major obtainment in life known as Success. As Winston Churchill once said, “Success is the ability to go from failure to failure without losing your enthusiasm.”
Follow your plan, be flexible, and enjoy the ride to finding your goal of true success. Avoid the obstacles that might land in your pathway by following a proven step-by-step plan. Stick to the plan and persevere and I guarantee your destination of true success is just around the next corner of life!
