INTRODUCTION
According to recent statistics released by the United States’ Bureau of Statistics, up to 5 million American citizens now work and earn a decent income from the comfort of their homes, and hundreds of millions of people from different parts of the globe are also fast following suit. When the internet was first discovered in the 90s, astute Chinese investor and business magnate, Jack Ma said that even the remotest possibility of the birth of a system that can connect billions of people all around the world at the same time was a development that was going to change the face of the business world forever. A few years later, Ma went on to establish Alibaba.com, Asia’s leading online business outfit. The power of the internet is just simply unquantifiable. Amazon was started by Jeff Bezos on his home computer in the 90s, and Mark Zuckerberg started Facebook from his dorm room in Harvard. The incomparable flexibility that an online business engagement provides and the truly unlimited scope of an online audience are major reasons why you should seriously consider starting your own personal online business very soon.
As the modern business world approaches the end of the second decade of the 21 st century, it is safe to say that any business that does not have a formidable online presence is not serious about making any tangible impact or revenue. It is, however, also true, that for a business to be outstanding and prosperous, a physical place of business does not need to exist anymore. All that is needed now are a computer system, a decent internet connection and a very intense desire for success.
The world has evolved to a point where making truly legitimate money has never been easier, but it still does not mean you do not have to put in the necessary work. Personally, as an online entrepreneur, I like to challenge the ‘Work smart and not hard’ maxim. What does it mean to work smart? It means finding the best possible channel out of a myriad of options to direct your efforts through.
Working smart entails choosing easier, modern and more straightforward methods of conducting business activities over archaic and increasingly unproductive ones. Working smart, however, also involves a lot of hard work, and this is where many people get it wrong. It is quite disheartening that even with the proliferation of online businesses, many people around the world still think working online is a leisurely stroll in the park, where they just do one or two things, sit back and watch their bank balances grow.
When these people bring these kinds of mindsets into the online business world, they end up failing miserably. This is because they haven’t mentally braced themselves to come to terms with the fact that while the internet might have made connecting with potential clients and marketing products and services a lot easier, an online business is still an actual business enterprise, a seedling that you plant and constantly water, remove weeds from and care for, not an investment that you just put cash in, forget about, and wait for your dividends. If you want to be successful at any online business whatsoever, dear reader, the first core principles you must learn are dedication and consistency.
These core principles are very vital to your success as an online entrepreneur because the competition out there is lethally stiff. Even in the world of offline businesses that require significantly more capital, effort and sometimes, extensive bureaucratic processes to begin, many business outfits are closing down in droves because they cannot stand the competition, and their businesses are not breaking even. If a local hardware store can be facing that problem because of the presence of only two other local hardware stores in the area, imagine the level of competition you would have to face when you begin an online business that requires very little capital, no dedicated workplace and less bureaucracy.
Therefore, starting an online business might be a walk in the park most of the time, but trust me, maintaining one and keeping it afloat is not. The competition is intense. Therefore, you need to be ready to dedicate enough time and effort every day into growing your business. As an entrepreneur both online and offline, I have found out that to grow any kind of business whatsoever, consistency of your efforts is very prominent among all requirements, second only to the primary need to be exceptionally brilliant at whatever skill you are trying to sell.
Numerous online business niches are fast becoming overcrowded and not necessarily by many good service providers. One of the challenges with beginning an online business and maintaining it is that several sub-par online businesses are out there, and you are going to have to jostle with all these options available to a potential client. The only way you are going to survive in this kind of business atmosphere is to be extraordinary in what you do and to keep getting better.
Let’s imagine you are a Website Developer for instance, and you learned how to develop websites a decade ago at a very good local skills acquisition center. Let’s say you even graduated top of your class. You might be really good, but the world of technology keeps evolving year in, year out, and you might be shocked to find out that when you set up your online business to begin developing websites for people, you’d not stand out that much after all, because there are other developers who have striven to keep up with new trends and have equipped themselves with the necessary knowledge to survive the competition and create the best cutting edge websites using the most modern techniques while you still only possess obsolete skills.
Therefore, dedication and consistency are essential, but an even more essential requirement is that you have to know your craft well. You need to assiduously hone your skills with every passing day until you become a force to reckon with in whatever field you choose.
One other tip I would recommend is efficient planning and time-consciousness. Many people understand that in the online business world, your reputation is all you have got, but still, they do nothing to fiercely guard that reputation. Before a client hires you, as a freelancer, he is going to check your portfolio to see the jobs you have done, therefore, your portfolio needs to be attractive enough to attract big clients. One other thing that clients look out for is your delivery time. Do you deliver in time, or do you overstep your deadlines? If you are a blogger, no one will take you seriously if you do not keep to a regular schedule that would enable them to effectively follow your posts.
We live in an increasingly fast-paced world with more deadlines than ever before, and to survive in this kind of tasking business environment, you need to become organized and do all you have to do on time. It is also very likely for you to get a little overwhelmed as your business begins to blossom. For instance, you are a Search Engine Optimization expert and about five clients want you to help them with their SEO rankings all in the space of a week. In this kind of situation, you need to carefully plan your schedule to make sure that you do not get too caught up in one job to forget about your other obligations. In addition, you need to imbibe the habit of agreeing only to deadlines you are sure you can keep up with.
To keep your fledgling online business outfit afloat, therefore, you need to be surgical with your time management. Draft out your work schedule at the beginning of every working day, imbibe the discipline to stick to this schedule, and watch your business grow beyond your wildest dreams.
One final tip is this; do what you love. As I mentioned earlier, a lot of people grossly underestimate the rigors associated with maintaining an online business. It is not always a bed of roses. There are times when new policies would be enacted that might affect your freelance business account. There are times when a new SEO rule might devastate your blog’s rankings. Some glitch or the other might lead to a massive drop in your revenues. One time too many, people have had to start over because of security issues involving hacking and other forms of cybercrime. These are all problems associated with working online, and to weather all these storms, you need to be mentally strong and you have to be motivated from within.
Passion is the most potent motivation ever, and that is why the best thing you can do for yourself and your career is to do something you are deeply passionate about. If you are a passionate romance story writer, you can publish your romance novels and sell them on Amazon while maintaining a romance blog.
If you are a talented artist, you can render freelance Graphic design services and run an art blog from where you can sell some of your best works. The internet is full of innumerable opportunities and there is no limit to your target audience, no matter the niche you choose. A lot of people make the grievous mistake of delving into fields they know nothing about, and are not passionate about, just because it is a currently hot niche and they want to cash out big from it. Working online does not entirely work this way.
In the end, if you are not passionate enough about that hot niche, you might lose interest in it especially if the revenue is not as great as broadcast. The best thing you can do for yourself, therefore, is to discover what you truly love and invest time and effort into polishing your talent or passion. It would be easier to establish a sustainable business online in a field that you love. Depending on the field within which your passion lies, you might be able to operate more than one line of business online as I mentioned in the examples given above. With these multiple opportunities, you could massively increase your earnings while still doing what you love.
All in all, working online in the modern age is one of the most rewarding experiences ever. You get to meet numerous amazing people, you get to do what you love while learning and developing yourself along the way, and you get to make an incredible living doing things you would gladly just do for fun. In this book that you have wisely invested in, you will be learning how to begin from scratch, several amazingly lucrative online businesses that will not only allow you to earn a stable, mind-blowing income but would allow you to harness your talents to their fullest potentials. Just make sure you adhere to the rules, carry out all your duties in time and remain consistent in the pursuit of your goals.
Welcome to a world of infinite possibilities.
