The 3 Essentials On Starting An Internet Home Business

I list hereunder in order of necessity/importance, the 3 essentials, on starting an internet home business.

Blog: This seems to be the most necessary as you can quite successfully run your initial internet home business on your blog.

A blog is essential for article marketing and can quite successfully carry out most of the functions a website would ordinarily carry out.

I would anyday recommend the wordpress blog over the blogger blog for various reasons amongst which are its SEO friendlyness, flexibility via varied pluggins etc

A website: This adds more professionalism to your business as it elevates the status of the business in the eyes of prospects and visitors.

These days, the static frontpage website is being jettisoned for the wordpress powered website/home page, though a sizeable number still use the static frontage.

The Autoresponder: This tireless “salesman” is quite important as the home business entrepreneur settles down with his internet home business.

The saying is rife that an average buyer needs to hear of an opportunity for between 5 – 7 times before he is finally swayed to take action in favour of any income opportunity. The autoresponder thus readily lends itself for use for this purpose.

The other option which is not desirable is for the initial visitors of the site to be lost since they may never revisit the site again to take necessary “buying” action without further follow up.

The autoresponder also lends itself for use in the home business entrepreneur’s list building efforts as a lead capture page can be created to funnel subscribers into the autoresponder.

Make Money Quick

Saturday, February 6th, 2010

So many newbies complain of being led into various programs with “make money quick” ads, only to get in to discover it is not as rosy as that.

My comment to the above will be in two parts.

Firstly, I think people ultimately always end up getting what they desire.

Prospects can always confirm that not all websites show such ads.

While still on the lookout for ads to respond to however, prospects actually do come across “honest” sites but click away from such sites very fast since it “leveled” with them that it would involve some work and time.

Even where prospects see “money-making site setup FREE within 24 hours” on the Plug-In Profit Site, because their inner mind wants money within 24 hours, what they actually end up believing to have seen is “money within 24 hours” rather than “a money-making site delivered within 24 hours”.

A lot of webmasters have thus come to realise that the vast majority of entrants into home business are looking for get rich quick schemes or “enjoy” “make money quick” and therefore advertise as such in a bid to just get subscribers at all cost.

I am not holding brief for such webmasters who display “make money quick” fraudulently, but only saying the prospects are equally to blame.

I get to hear for example that the subscribers’ generation rate of some companies is too slow and so a lot of people shy away from using them. Meanwhile, when such people end up getting “fake” leads/subscribers very fast from other sources, they equally complain. You really “cannot have your cake and eat it”.

CLICK HERE NOW!

Some people would rather gather a list into multiple thousands with very low quality/conversions subsequently, rather than take the time to gather quality leads even though they should have known the implication from the outset.

Others, even still using good quality companies to generate subscribers, will place very sensational ads all in a bid to attract subscribers at all cost, only to end up with thousands of low quality subscribers list. They also ought to have known the implication of their actions from the outset.

All these arise from the “make money quick” mentality.

Meanwhile, it should be realised that webmasters have different levels of ethical standards individually and so such “playing to the gallery” by some webmasters should not come as a surprise.

Even where the program is difficult to go through, some webmasters/uplines having a sense of commitment, will do all in their power to assist their subscribers to achieve success while others will not.

In summary, it is incumbent on the prospect to identify the webmaster who is being honest and be prepared to accept the honesty and face reality. Until this happens in large scale, such occurences of “make money quick” will continue.

On the other hand (second part), some people (though few) do actually start making sales and profit quite early with these programs. This does depend on many variables amongst which are

-previous experience in home business/online business
-level of education/general knowledge
-time available to devote to the home business
-funds available to help jumpstart the home business
-availability and quality of mentor or upline.

Starting A Home Business – Matching, Cashflow & Profitability

Friday, December 18th, 2009

In starting a home business, the importance of the “Matching, “Cashflow” and “Profitability” concepts from the accounting point of view, cannot be over-emphasized.

Probably because I am a professional (Chartered Accountant) versed in that field, I notice a rampant non-adherence in home business online to this accounting concept, “Matching”. There is also a thorough lack of understanding of the meaning of Cashflow and Profitability all of which ultimately are major causes of failure of most home businesses.

The Matching Concept in accounting simply states that revenues earned in any accounting period must be matched with the expenses incurred in that same accounting period.

Cashflow is basically the expression of cash/funds that are received as against cash/funds that are spent within the same time period.

Profitabilty involves a matching of revenues(not cash) with expenses(not cash) incurred within the same time period.

Let us first start with “Cashflow”
Applying this to a home business, it is important that if anybody starting a home business wants to succeed, he should ensure that the cash/funds he receives from all sources he has decided to apply to the home business in any time period is at least equal to the amount he disburses on the home business in the same time period, which may be most appropriately, monthly,

Simple, it sounds? In reality, it beats me hollow to see many “Gurus” running training programs recommend to “newbies” many tools, resources, subscriptions which obviously? at the stage the newbies are in, in most cases, they should not be incurring such expenditure. And poor “newbies”, in the belief that they are being “shepherded” correctly, follow hook, line and sinker, the “recipe” of these “Gurus” much to their own peril.

Some “Gurus” do this out of mischief (to sell products/services) but you will be surprised at how many do this out of ignorance of the extreme importance of “Cashflow”.

“Cashflow” is the most important in the short run as a home business making profit in the short run can run out of business with inappropriate cashflow management. On the other hand, a home business making an actual accounting loss in the initial period can survive and ultimately turn around to making profit in the long run.. In fact most businesses start out making an accounting loss in their initial year of operation and turn this round to a profit in subsequent years.

Next to ““Profitability”.
This becomes crucial more in the long run as anyone starting a home business must ultimately ensure his revenues exceed expenses otherwise he will run out of business.

A common misconception however is that the home business must pay for itself almost right from the outset. You will loose a lot of home based business opportunities this way. What is crucial is the ultimate income potential of the home business. In fact only “get rich quick schemes” come this way.

Now to “Matching”
This in the accounting parlance is actually more related to “Profitability” in that it determines the way any profit you earn in your home business will be deemed accrued. Anyone starting a home business must know that the initial outlays in your first few months should not simply be “written off” but should be noted as an initial expense which should be amortised over a reasonable length of time periods and should not be simply “loaded” into any one time period.

What deductions can those starting a home business make from all these accounting terminologies?

- Do not spend more than you have realistically earmarked and is indeed available(budget) on any home business in any time period. In fact borrowing to start a home business is like signing your death warrant as the expected revenues/cash is not likely to come in as fast as you expect.

- The yardstick for determining the success of any home business is not in the speed with which you start earning as indeed you do not start reaping very fast with many successful home businesses while you infact yield initially very fast with some “get rich quick schemes” and ultimately loose much more later.

- You are the architect of your own fortune or misfortune and you should not leave your fate entirely in the hands of any marketing guru purporting to train you in internet marketing but wisely apply the breaks in spending as appropriately explained in this article.

- The decisions to be takan by each one involved in starting a home business is dependent on his particular financial situation. As “Cashflow” is most important, anyone with good cash base should infact make informed purchase decisions even if he would be making an accounting loss initially as this will fasttrack his business while someone with a poor cashflow should bid his time by applying FREE tools which are indeed plentiful on the internet. I say “informed purchase decisions” because availability of cash is no license to go on a spending spree without basis since in internet marketing, you still need time to acquire the necessary training which involves reading relevant materials very widely, browsing forums etc

- You must get out of that home business if within a reasonable length of time you are now not covering all your costs, including the ones you had capitalized which you are amortising over a number of time periods.

- Quantify exactly how much cash is required to “survive” in any home business within the first six months to one year by which time you should hopefully have turned into profit and incorporate this in your cashflow projection to determine if available earmarked funds will be able to finance this.

- Be rest assured that spending much more than comes in initially is not a sign of the failure of an home business or indeed any business for that matter.

You can now make many more other deductions from the explanation of the above terminologies to guide you in starting a home business.
