Many home business entrepreneurs feel that if they don't have clients stopping by, they don't need to have a good office setup. An old desk, your child's forsaken bookshelf, a chair from kitchen table, and a miscellaneous table or two will work just fine. The rest is just fluff.

However, consider these things. Every human being responds to his/her surroundings in one form or another. When your "office" looks like a professional place of business, you actually respond by being more professional with your clients and vendors. But more importantly, "leftover" desks and chairs are normally not as comfortable as furniture specifically designed for an office. When you spend a tremendous amount of time at your desk, you physically need it to be as comfortable as possible.

95% of people that make an attempt to start an online business will spend more than they make. In time, after not realizing a profit, they will throw in towel and give up.

Does this sound familiar? Are you spending more than you’re making? Or, are profits you’re pulling in so low that you don’t understand how someone can make a full time living online?

Rest easy. I was in your shoes at one time. But now I am happy to report that I’m in 5 percentile that makes a full-time living online.

Here’s how I rose above from other 95% and made a lot of money online.

First, I want you to put aside thought of overnight riches. Sadly, it rarely works that way. I can say that I made a decent profit online in under a week, but I spent over a year researching how I was going to do it.

And that’s real secret to making money online. You can’t jump in without an idea of what you’re going to do and expect that everything will take care of itself. That’s a pipe dream that many cling to. But it’s a very bad way to approach an online business.

Think about it. Let’s assume I want to be a computer programmer. Without a lick of experience I begin to drop my resume at every business in town. Do you think I’m going to be offered a job and profit from being a computer programmer even though my only experience is running a cash register?

To acquire a job as a programmer, I would need to go to college. I would spend thousands getting a degree, and spend years learning subject so I’m prepared.
