How to Build an Online Busines



build online business


A short guide on starting from scratch. We'll look very briefly at your business product/service, your website, your market and how to make sales.


Steps


  • Choose what you want to do. Stick with a hobby or interest. This means you'll already have good product knowledge and, more importantly, be passionate about what you are doing.

  • Assess the competition. See what they do good and look even more closely at what they do bad. Work out your unique selling point (USP) or competitive edge. This can be something obvious like cheaper prices, better customer service, newer products, and so on.

  • Brand yourself. Your company brand is extremely important and the first part of marketing. Do you need a sharp executive logo or a family friendly feel to sell your product? Get an appropriate name and get a rough idea of who you are appealing to.

  • Build a website. The website should be themed around your brand image. For the layout itself, you might copy a successful competitor. If you need a web designer, then find someone local. You'll need to meet them face-to-face and make sure that you know exactly who you are dealing with.

  • Market shamelessly. Tell everyone you know about your site. Add it to every directory and search engine that you can find. There are plenty of good free ones. Get onto related forums and chat rooms. Word of mouth is a very effective marketing tool; however, be sure to abide by forum rules.

  • Utilize PR marketing. You can submit an article about your new business to newspapers. If you are savvy enough to be able to get a story printed. then you'll have thousands of resultant visitors.

  • Close your sales. Now you need all these people to buy from your site. Don't be arrogant, but tell people about how great your product is. Use testimonials. Create a "need" for your customer to purchase your products, as opposed to a "want". Having sales and limited editions creates a sense of urgency; people don't like to miss out!

  • Distribute newsletter sales. Offer a free email newsletter on your site, where people can enter their email and receive great hints and tips on your area of expertise. Within these e-mails, you can suggest some new products and offers, as well. Don't be aggressive in your technique though, as it will scare off potential and repeat customers.

  • Work hard, and commit to it. Remember that success comes to those who work for it, which generally most people don't like to do. That means there's less competition.

Starting Your Own Online Business? Don't Make This Mistake


online business mistake

When starting your own online business many people might think that it takes hundreds or even thousands of dollars to get a website up and running. While you could actually pretty easily put that much into it, don't! Unless you got the kinda of money that you can throw away and not have to worry about but I don't and I certainly do not know anyone who can, especially these days!

There are also people who will jump at the first business opportunity they come across  that claims they will be making money overnight or cashing big affiliate checks the next day. Or they move from one opportunity to the next and before they know it they have spent an enormous amount of money and not one thing or sale to show for it.  Don't make this mistake that so many do. I myself spent a lot of money and countless hours when I first started out thinking this was my get rich fast opportunity. The truth is that you really only need a few things to start your own online business and it can be done with a very tiny budget.

The only three things that you really need to spend any money on when first starting out is a domain name, web hosting and a good autoresponder. Yes believe it or not that's really it.  You can have all three of those too for as little as 90 cents a day. Think you can find 90 cents a day?  That's less than a cup of coffee from your favorite coffee shop!  

So you see starting your own online business can be affordable and you don't have to spend big money or money you don't have to get it done. And the big business opportunity deals, forget about them. Just remember the old saying "if it sounds to good to be true" well you know the rest of that line right? To start and grow your own online business doesn't have to be expensive or drain your savings but it is going to take some time and effort and good old fashion work!

For your website there are a couple options but the easiest method today to get started (in my opinion) is WordPress. It is an easy to set up blog site that you can get going in no time at all and it's really the most common these days. I'm sure everyone by now has either posted to a blog site or commented on one and of course if you are reading this there is a good chance that it is one of my blog sites created with WordPress. The best part is WordPress is completely free. If you want to have a standard website there are free tools and templates that you can get for that type of website as well.

Depending on what you want to do with your new online business you can find of sorts of free resources to help you build or grow your online presence. If you need to accept credit card orders you can use ClickBank or many people use PayPal, since PayPal only charges when you make a sale its the perfect setup for some people and its widely accepted.

So once again don't fall into that trap of spending hundreds of dollars on your website when staring your own online business. Whether it's to set it up or buying into these "business opportunities". Save your money and once you start making money online then you can invest in it a little for advertising or what ever you might think you need to grow your online business. After all it's going to take some time to get things set up, earn some credibility and getting visitors to your website. So be patient, keep your money in your wallet and don't bury yourself before you even get started.

To Your Success!

How Do I Start an Online Business

online business


G'day everyone


So you're thinking of starting your own online business eh, well good for you!An online business can give a person so much, but that's only if it's a successful online business; and as the stats will show, most of them aren't.So how does one go about starting an online business?

In today's world, there is really only 1 way - Find a person who is already an online marketer, hang on... that should be, Find a person who is already a successful online marketer, and get them to teach you.Sincerely and all joking aside, that really is the best way to start your own online business, in today's environment.

Not too long ago it would have been necessary for a person to know a whole stack of technical stuff before they could even think about putting a web site online, let alone start their own business, however;  Nowadays, that is really not necessary, More on that below.

Another reason why I recommend a person who is starting their own online business find a person who is already an online marketer and get them to teach them is simply because of the pace of change in the industry.

Things have changed so much, particularly on the advertising side of building an online business.  That's why they call it online marketing or Internet marketing.  It really is the marketing that makes all the difference.

When you think about it building your own online business isn't really that hard.  You find a product; you put up a website telling everybody all about that product, and then you market the be-Jesus is out of it.

However, even though this process sounds simple, the marketing side of things can be extremely difficult.In fact, it shouldn't be called build your own online business.  It should be titled, learning how to market like a mother, because that is where the real secret to making money in any kind of business, online lies.

You can have the greatest site on the planet, the best site on the Internet, but if nobody sees it.  You will make absolutely zero and marketing is how you get people to see your site.Why am I harping on so heavily about the marketing side of things when it comes to building your own business online, that's because the technical aspects have really all been mastered?

If you want to learn how to do something, let's say you want to learn how to use and auto responder; All you need to do nowadays is go to Google type in the words "how to use an auto responder" and you will find a hundred or more videos that will show you exactly how to do that.

There are even businesses on the Internet that you can join today, and I mean legitimate businesses, that will provide you with your very own web site.  So this has taken a huge part of the technical aspects of building an online business, and really beaten it into submission, that is why you need to focus on the marketing of your business to be successful.

Well I hope that cleared the water for you when it comes to knowing How Do I start an online business If You Have Never Done It Before
