When setting up an account with your web host, point out that you can get same features and space at other hosts for less. Ask them to lower price. If you ask person with that authority, they may offer you a lower rate. You never know until you ask. I've even had a few clients surprised when they were offered absolutely free, full- service hosting :-)

In practically everything that you use in your online business, you can get a lower rate. The secret is to ask. The VERY best way to do that is simply to ask, "Is that best that you can do?" They will know exactly what you are asking and many merchants will lower price. You could also ask, "Can't you do a little better." Both of above phrases work great in local shops too.

Prices are not set in stone, and if your funds are tight, a good way to lower your expenses and get off to a quicker start is simply to start asking for a price break. If someone looks at my $147 web copywriting course, which is best in business, and asks for a discount, I'm very likely to give it to them. Don't tell anyone though :-) Given choice of losing sale, or giving you a slight price reduction, what do you think most online merchants will do?

I've just armed you with another bit of advice that I have never seen any other ezine publisher offer. Start doing this today, and you'll be pleasantly surprised, and your budget will buy soooooo much more.

I myself had failed many times before I could pursue my careers in this field. I have tried many different programs that were not working, but I never "GIVE UP". That is how I get to where I am today.

"ARE you worried about failure?" "ARE you pessimistic about Internet business?"

You need to read my article on "7 Steps to become successful in life" at: http://www.freebiesgroup.com/hottips/internet_marketing_success.html

In building up your own Internet business, you need to learn about what you really would like to do online.

I conclude with a four-step-strategy on building your successful Internet business from scratch.

Regardless of your past or current situation, if you follow it thoroughly, you are able to reach success I have gained.

However, you need to remember that you're person who will be in charge of your life NOT others....

Here are those four steps...

1. Planning.

You must define Types of businesses you would like to be involved in, Your target market, your business strategy, cost, selling strategies, and more...

2. Building.

Design your website, email newsletter, autoresponder, database system, directory setting and etc.

3. Launching.

Launch your website, start email marketing campaign, search engine positioning, pay per click, and etc.

4. Maintaining.

Once you are off ground, you should try expanding your business with affiliate programs, joint ventures, cross promotions, and other strategic alliances.

It's all that simple, but still lots of newbies are NOT even sure that they will be able to handle above four steps.

The key here is "Persistence"

As a closing, I would like to mention that YOU should not take failure as a reason to stop, but as an encouragement to do better than others.

"If others can do it online, Why couldn't you?"

Success is yours, Henry Gold
