For anyone that has created a successful business online or attempted an online business they know, better than anyone, that jumping on internet, creating a website and trying to make sales does not constitute success. There are some key ingredients that will increase your chances for success.

Honest Sincere Passion

It's really not enough to hate your day job or your boss or your traffic commute. You must have personal drive to put your talents and expertise to work for you! There must be an inner passion that pushes you to success and gives you patience to keep on truckin', so to speak and not give up.

Creating your own business means you must be willing to make sacrifices for greater good. Nothing worthwhile was achieved without time and sacrifice and you must be prepared to recognize that.

A common reason why people end up back at their day jobs giving up goal of business ownership is that sacrifice was too great. Starting a business was too much work, took too much time and left too little money for fun. Those things cannot stand in your way. If they do then keep up day job, it's easier.

Professional Website

To do business on web you must begin with a website. This is your storefront, it's your introduction to world. It tells people who you are, what you are about and what you have to offer.

Your website should be simple and make a positive impression. It should be easy to understand and navigate. Use appealing colors and fonts. Don't use a lot of flashy graphics or popups.

Make ordering off your site as simple and easy to understand as possible. Be obvious about all product and shipping costs. Highlight benefits to your readers and display a call to action.

Compelling Content

Develop content that compels your viewers to buy. Learn to appeal to their emotions. Making more money, saving time, losing weight or making tasks easier all encourage readership and sales. It really doesn't matter what you are selling as long at it can convey how it will help your viewers and is targeting right audience.

Understand who your readers are and what they would most be interested in reading. Find out what their key interest are and choose content that addresses those interests.

Targeted Audience

"I'll call you this week". "Yes, I'd love to see you again". "I had a great time". "I'm not interested in dating anyone else". "I think I'm falling in love with you."

These are a few of phrases passed between singles as they move through stages of meeting and dating. At time, they are uttered with what feels like true emotion and honesty. No wonder person they are directed to is so confused when call never comes, person becomes unavailable, or it soon becomes evident that speaker is dating or deeply involved with someone else. Can we ever believe what we see or hear? How can we be sure?

Dating is a process of getting to know someone. It begins with an attraction, which is formed by that first impression. Often, this first meeting occurs by chance at a social gathering, at work or in course of one's daily life. More and more, it happens through a response to a personal ad and emailing and phone calls that follow. Both in-person and email or voice contact give us a sense of other individual- but this is only a brief snapshot of who they may be. It takes real time together to create a larger and clearer picture of this other person and their rightness or wrongness for us. During this time we assess for friendship, attraction, shared interests and values, and a willingness and ability on part of both individuals to move forward in a relationship.
