Home Business : Can You Succeed !

Written by Michel Richer


Everyday people ask me if they will make money withrepparttar internet. Of course i said. But it takes times and determination.

You cannot expect to make a six figure income in just 30 days. But you can make a six figure income in 2 to 3 years working part time.

Do you think your job atrepparttar 116562 factory gonna give you more for your money and time than this ?

It takes an average of one year to start seeingrepparttar 116563 result of your effort inrepparttar 116564 internet. Thats a pretty small price to pay for this huge market.

It takes time to develop a business plan. It takes time to know wich products sells best and wich advertising give yourepparttar 116565 highest return on your investment (ROI).

It took me one month just to know how to use Google Adwords effectively. I had to takerepparttar 116566 time. But know it pays out a lot with a CTR and conversion rate of 70%.

Anything worthwhile takes sustained effort. If you’re not thinking long term, you’ve set yourself up for failure. REPEAT: If you’re not thinking long term, you’ve set yourself up for failure. I can’t emphasize this enough!!!!

But let’s look at some real examples and see if we can put some perspective on this. I’ll start with myself.

My success as a home business entrepreneur is well known. Having earned over $8 million, I’m sure there are some who’d vote me in torepparttar 116567 Home-Business Hall of Fame if there were such a thing. Yet what most of those same people don’t know is that I LOST money my first two years. I only broke even in my third year.

And it was only when I got to my fourth year did I see my first profit. Was it worth it? Are you kidding?!! Today I live a dream life, work from my dream home, drive my dream car—I’m blessed beyond my wildest expectations.

In other words, evenrepparttar 116568 most dynamic, highest-earning entrepreneurs inrepparttar 116569 industry took MONTHS to begin seeing an income of any real significance. Andrepparttar 116570 real wealth,repparttar 116571 $100,000+ income we all strive for, took an average of almost THREE YEARS to achieve!

Do you think ANY of these gentlemen don’t thinkrepparttar 116572 ends justifiedrepparttar 116573 means? Do you think for an instant thatrepparttar 116574 months and years invested hasn’t been rewarded a thousand times at least? You don't even have to think about it, do you?

If I told you that after two to three years of following our system, you’d be making more in a month than you now make in a year, could you handle that?

The Realities of Starting a Home-Based Business

Written by Kathy Burns-Millyard


When most people think of working from home, they immediately think "freedom". And with that thought followsrepparttar thoughts of "freedom to do what I want, when I want", "freedom to set my own schedule", "freedom to sleep in or go have fun when I decide to"...repparttar 116561 list goes on.

Once you've started your business though, you'll likely receive an immediate reality check. It doesn't work out quiterepparttar 116562 way you thought it would.

To some degree,repparttar 116563 above comments are true in a home business environment – but not always and sometimes not even often. Let's look at each statement and see how reality fits in.

"Freedom to sleep in or go have fun when I decide to" If you have children, especially early risers or older children who have to get up and ready for school, you'll find that you can't sleep in. I have three school children and my day routinely starts at 6:00 - 6:30am. They get up early onrepparttar 116564 weekends too, so I rarely sleep past 8 - 9am even on Saturdays and Sundays.

If you have clients, partners or prospects who are in a different time zone, you'll find yourself receiving phone calls at 9am – their time – even if their time is three hours ahead of yours. This can be avoided to some degree by placing prominent hours of operation and time zone notices on your sales materials, but not everyone will see those. The easiest way to avoid this is to simply turn off your office phone during personal hours. If you do though, make sure you remember to turn it back on when you start work each day and check your voice mail regularly.

As for going out and having fun whenever you decide to... well, maybe. When you're first starting a business, you'll often find yourself stressed out or worried about making a success of things. When you're worried about generating income especially, it becomes pretty difficult to walk away fromrepparttar 116565 office to just "go out and have fun".

"Freedom to do what I want, when I want" When you start a business, you say goodbye to having a boss right? Wrong. In any business, clients and customers take onrepparttar 116566 role of boss. Yes, you haverepparttar 116567 freedom to choose who you take on as a client, and you haverepparttar 116568 freedom to tell your clients "No" when need be. Inrepparttar 116569 beginning however, you won't find yourself saying no or being picky very often.

Let's say you decide to work only half a day so that you can spendrepparttar 116570 rest ofrepparttar 116571 day running errands or cleaningrepparttar 116572 garage. Then you get a call from a client who needs something completed byrepparttar 116573 end ofrepparttar 116574 day. Will you say no because you had other plans? Not likely – especially if you need that work.
