Starting Off Right
| Category: Net Business Start ups | Date: 2003-11-28 |
Less than five years from now, youll be able to say that you were among the first 25% of the billion people online to stake your claim to cyberspace. You are beginning a journey at a crucial time in history and its important to do things right for two reasons: first,time is of the essence. To take full advantage of being at the front of a line, you have to know where to go and what to do once you get "inside"; two, you dont want to waste valuable time and money going down the wrong path.Here is a simple but effective guide to ensure that you waste neither your time nor your money in your quest for Internet success!
Learn the Basics
Only the very intelligent know enough to say, "I dont know." Only the foolish and insecure hesitate to ask questions and find out what they dont know -- preferring instead to bluff their way or go ahead blindly.The Internet is nothing if not rife with free information!The search engines are made for all, no matter what your level of expertise -- or lack thereof! Use the subject line as somewhat of an oracle and type in terms of interest: business opportunities, web services, classified ads, etc. If youre not sure what to type in,simply start with any of those. Then surf. Trust your intuition -- a valuable skill in the absence of face-to-face or even voice interaction. It wont take you long before you decide if a site is too slick, too awkward, too confusing. Similarly, youll know quickly if the owner is sincere. There are lots of scams out there, but there are also many honest people with genuinely good products and opportunities for you to explore.
WHAT TO LOOK FOR
You can better trust sites that freely offer more contact information than simply e-mail. Look for sites that name the owner, offer phone and fax numbers and have an "about me/us" section on the site.
SUBSCRIBE TO E-ZINES
Again, it wont take you long before you know the difference between good information and junk. Trust your instinct -- if anything ever sounds too good to be true, or if you have to give out credit card information before you are comfortable or to simply access information -- DONT! Subscribing to e-zines will soon indicate to you the common thread that runs among all Internet business. Once you get the hang of it, unsubscribe from those that turn you off, sound hollow, or make grandiose offers that seem to good to be true.
TEST THE OWNERS
When there is anything at all youre interested in, be it information in general or on specific products or opportunities, use the contact methods that are provided and ASK. As said before, the Internet is a gold-mine of both information and opportunity. Ask away!Note how long it takes you to get a reply and whether you like the "tone" or attitude behind the response. This will very quickly weed out who and what you want to pursue.
SELECT AN ADVOCATE
Remember who has control here -- YOU DO. You are free to ask anything you want. Find an individual or company that will answer your questions. Then ask, and ask and ask some more. Test your choice to see if you continue to get prompt and polite responses. If you seem to be treated as too much "work" then move on. There are individuals and companies out there that will help you in your quest for whats right for you.
NARROW THE FIELD OF OPPORTUNITY
Once you are more comfortable with your options -- how different businesses work, how much they cost to begin, how much time you need to devote to them, whether they offer any forms of guarantee, what exactly your role in the process is, etc. -- narrow your field and focus on two or three exclusively. If you havent already asked those things,send off e-mails that cover all of your questions and wait to see who "wins" your loyalty. Ask for the e-mail addresses of people who have gone down the road that youre considering. Ask them tough questions and see how they reply. They cant all be bluffing. Checking references is your final assurance that youre not acting rashly.
Ask:
* What is the total price of the opportunity?
* What is the annual or renewal rate?
* Are you required to purchase products yourself?
* WHAT TRAINING IS PROVIDED AND IN WHAT FORM?
* What assurance can you have of the companys longevity?
* What -- specifically -- is your role in running your business?
* Who does the billing? Customer Service? Actually delivers the products?
* How and how often do you get paid?
* How do the incentives compare with other opportunities?
* Is there any guarantee of your success?
SELECT YOUR WINNER
All of the above should be accomplished within a week. As said before, there is no benefit to being at the front of the line if you stand aside and let the line pass you by. On the Internet, while only a snake oil salesman would advocate you jumping into something youre not comfortable with, time is still of the essence. You would be a fool to approach your research in a manner so as to waste a month of precious time. If youre lucky enough to find yourself on a beach with a stock of surf boards and tourists flooding in, are you going to stand there and observe until youre sure 5 other surf board salesmen succeed? Are you going to wait until the 6 foot waves become 7 or 8 foot waves? No,of course not. If you are sure the water is safe and there is a market waiting for you, youll open your surf board business -- fast -- before everyone has a surf board!The same applies here. Do your research and then trust your instinct. Most of all, do not lose your most valued advantage -- TIME. You are clever enough to have come online and begun your research well ahead of 75% of the population. Use that and get your business --your well-researched, low or no risk pportunity -- established to maximize the benefits of being there first.
Basically then, if you have made up your mind that you WILL make money from the Internet -- good for you, because you WILL. Your time,commitment and determination are all that you need to be an Internet success -- if you find the right opportunity. Spend 10-20 hours on a quest for the right path for you. Devote this little bit of time to great quality research and you WILL make the right choice. Using the advice offered here will make your search shorter since youll be able to dismiss anyone that doesnt live up to our expectations. Make sure that any individual or company you "interview" can answer the tough questions above -- and make your selection.
Most of all -- do something TODAY! Thats not to say give out your credit card number today, but take the second step (reading this being the first) and take another step.
In other words, ASK!
Once you have decided the path youll take to success on the Internet, find out the next series of steps -- They are universal for Internet Success, regardless of the business you select.
