Are You or Are You Not Ready For Business?
By Lena Sanchez
Here is a summation of an article I read this morning
telling me the three keys to becoming successful, written by
a supposedly Internet Guru. Not really bad but totally
incomplete for truly successful business online.
He wrote:
The 3 keys to becoming successful (and staying that way)
with an online business are:
1) Use professionally written ads.
2) Post them consistently.
3) Repeat 1 and 2 again.
Good advice as far as it goes but this is the old way of
doing business on the Internet and accounts for 80% to
90% of all new online businesses failure in the first year. I
had almost decided that the Internet was not as great as it
was purported to be but having found a new and more
productive way of doing business online that requires far
less time and money I am now more confident in the
Internet.
I am now able to follow my heart and help others in every
aspect of their life and business. Simply because I do not
spend hours daily posting to newsgroups, lists, classifieds,
ezines, etc. and found steps to success!
So here are my three suggestions for a successful
business on the Net.
1) Use someone's Ads who has already written and
proven them to work who also updates as needed, saving
me time and energy. I only know one person who will allow
this practice. Otherwise you will be called a plagiarizer and
be in trouble with the writer.
2) Use the Sales Manager- handle your customers/clients
automatically A List Server- to send out your newsletter,
announcements, etc. Have Free Lotto and contests that
grabs thousands of prospects from the millions of hits to
your site daily.
"It took me a while to learn these were necessary!"
3) Concentrate on business and let your automated site
take care of the incoming customers while keeping close
contact with someone who has already made it online and
follow their footsteps. Posting to free lists only garnered
me spam and no business!
It would be totally great if three steps were all it took
for a successful business but you know and I know that is
totally a false premise. But these are the three main ones
that have helped me really build a successful business
online.
I am sorry to say I wasted a lot of money in the preceding
two years on software programs that takes care of some of
the necessary steps but were not compatible with other
software programs and could not function in conjunction
with each other, which left me incomplete and really
frustrated. It also took me weeks upon end to learn how
to operate them leaving me feeling totally inadequate
and inept and conned.
Such a nightmare, as I am not a computer geek or even an
intermediate computer literate person. I know how to turn
computers on and use the word processor and input
information but not software literate at all. After you
work so hard to conquer these programs and wasted
precious time you find that the people who sold you the
program have attached their advertising to everything
you send out.
That builds their business not yours.
I was also told how much money I was going to make
by becoming an affiliate and sell the "simple" piece of
Internet genius. Such tales are told out there! Yes
there are a few affiliate programs that will pay you a
few dollars.
All I really wanted was to try and create a better world
with environmental friendly and alternative health products
and information but it was not to be for a couple of years
until I found the secrets that made it happen.
I could go on and on but not enough space to do it here,
the question is "Are you or are you not ready to do business?"
If you missed any of the above steps you may have a "slow
go or no go!" Questions or help mailto:lenaenvirodocs.com
BONUS TIP: Help others get what they want and you will get what you want!
