Start You Own Online Business – Seriously?
So, I keep asking myself…”Are you sure you really want to do this?”
Maybe I’m making things more difficult than they need to be – but, then again, I’ve gotten plenty of help it making it seem that way. After all, I’ve been told (“pitched to”) that I can start my own online business with no ideas, no product, no list and…this is really cool…no computer. How does THAT work? Perhaps I’ll purchase this product…right after I purchase the three-hundred and forty-eight other products that promise to have the answers I need to start my own online business. That’s assuming I have any money left.
It seems that ever since I opted-in for that first free start your own online business report, I have been inundated with e-mails. Everybody and their brother, including a few sisters, and, I have no doubt, one or two distant cousins thrown in for good measure all have “The Answer” to my success.
This information overload hasn’t been completely worthless, however. After spending countless hours wading through hundreds of e-mails and numerous reports containing thousands of words I have learned that an online business consists of identifying a market (need or want), selecting a product or service to offer that fills that need or want, selecting a location to market that product or service from (web site), advertising the availability of the product or service, then, providing continuing value to those who make a purchase. Duh! (Oh wait…I already knew this from 1) having previously owned a brick-and-mortar retail
business, and 2) because I’m been a customer once or twice recently.)
This is so profound I must take some time to give it the consideration it deserves. I better check my e-mail too.
