If you want to make your business more successful than it is now, you may want to look into personalization techniques. You will find such techniques from places like McDonald's, Burger King, IHOP and Starbucks. Learning personality to add your business is not a bad thing because most people nowadays will not pay attention to generic brands. This doesn't mean you have to be edgy and bold but it can mean you could be gentle and passionate through the words and placement of your content. Read on to learn more about personalization techniques and tactics for your business.
when you are building your network marketing business you can do it the easy way or the hard way. The hard way is figuring out who you are and why you do what you do. This can take decades or longer if you choose to focus on the cash flow instead of focusing on attraction and Authority. If you ever went to the store and bought chips or cookies or even a health food item, there's always a catchy slogan somewhere on there. The best examples are Nikes old motto "just do it." This is only icing on the cake though. You have to dig down and show your personality through your specific actions and words in everything you produce.
This could be called branding for your network marketing business. It is preferred to think of it as personalization. This includes color choices, graphic choices, targeting and many other factors. If you choose to leave a signature or motto that also will help brand or personify your business. You may have seen a lot of cartoons and videos online from certain businesses to help reinforce this personal branding by sharing a particular cartoon character. This will also help as well because it sticks in the in the viewers mind. And viewers will remember and relate to this character later on as they surf your website.
The do's and don'ts of personalization for network marketing
Brought up quickly and efficiently, there are only a couple of do's and don'ts for network marketing personalization. Don't make it forced, be natural and allow your personality to show through. Be creative in all areas of it and work with it until you're happy with the results from your marketing effort. Keep your text font readable and large enough for all types of audiences. Do a test run with your project before going completely with it. Run it with a small test group and get feedback and make changes from it. Don't overly spend on advertising cost for it you will lose more than you will gain. Be original and don't steal ideas and have fun with it.

All of us know about Amazon. This is one of the biggest online stores in the world. Another name in the category of online stores is Alibaba, owned by a Chinese, Jack Ma. Most of the time we see these two names in search results when we look for a consumer product on the internet. Gone are the days when we had to go out for shopping. Now almost all types of consumer products are available online, that too on a global level. People can have their required things while sitting at home or office.
The concept of online stores started from the West and now is a growing trend in Asian countries. Seeing their popularity, many brands, and businesses got online. All big corporate names have an online presence now. Social media has played a great role in it. Brands and individuals own online stores also. Individuals along with their teams or families are also inclined toward opening online stores with a wide range of products. It includes books and magazines, garments, furniture, cosmetics and handbags, herbal products and medicines, construction material, electronic, and jewelry, etc. The sole purpose of opening an online store is to expand the outreach and tap in the maximum number of potential customers. An online store can give us a huge fortune as a long-term business even if it started on a small or medium scale.
Let's have a look at how an online store is different from physical shops and what benefits are there for you that are not available otherwise.
No requirement of physical space:
Your presence will be web-based so you don't need to worry about hiring or purchasing a physical space, buying bulk/huge consignments of items or goods at once, and their storage. However, you have to pay for a domain name and relevant charges.
No middleman hassles:
You can pick up the items/goods direct from a factory or manufacturer and transport it to the customer at retail price. Your profit ratio will also be high because of no middleman. A very useful tip for small and medium-sized industries and home-based handicrafts is that they can reach out to potential customers and get orders directly. But for this, they will have to spend reasonably on advertising.
Work according to the capacity and resources:
Are you to manage the store on your own or is a team or family there to help you? Make a work plan accordingly. If you are the sole manager, you can do it as part-time along with your job. You can expand it according to the available resources and when it begins to give you a reasonable monthly or annual income, you can quit your job or other work.
Manage it while on the go:
You can manage your online store while travelling with the help of a tab, laptop, or smart phone. No hassle of being bound to sit in a place.
Long-term benefits and safe investment:
You invest a small or reasonable amount according to the circumstances in an online store at first. So, the investment is safer than other businesses. First, it is slow but with the passage of time, it starts gaining customers and huge benefits. It will fetch long-term benefits if you keep on working 'slow and steady'.
Product-wise distribution of work:
If a team or family is helping you out in managing and maintaining the online store, you can distribute work product-wise. Like, females can handle cosmetics, handbags, ladies' garments etc., while males can take care of technical and electronic items. This work distribution can make things easy.
Now have a look at a few requirements also for maintaining a great online store and reaping the benefits.
Attention-grabbing and user-friendly design:
Hire the designers and inventory experts for designing the store who are already experienced in this field. For multiple types of items in the store, you will have to make sections. Links, buttons for easy navigation, ordering and cart, newsletter sign-up, and other necessary things must be there. Keep on reviewing the design every two years or so.
Advertisement and social media presence:
All of us use social media these days so it is a great way to catch up with the customers and market. Make social media pages/profiles of your online store and available products, and rightly advertise it to the specific audience.
High quality products and customer service:
Make no compromise on quality and customer service! Sometimes, customers complain that they get a different item from the one they ordered or selected. This puts a bad impression on customers and the repute of online store suffers. Give customers what you claim to give. Only good customer service can earn you a great name. The better the customer service, the more positive the outcome.
On time response and delivery:
Check out the orders regularly and deliver the items on time. Set a specific period for delivery like 24 hours for local orders and 48 or 72 hours for out of the city and away places. Delay in response and delivery is going to hurt your business and reputation. Arrange for a live chat with customers as well.
Product description and charges clearly specified:
Specify the charges including product price and shipment fee clearly with each product. There must not a confusion between the price mentioned online and the price demanded at the time of delivery or purchase.
Wise spending:
Hire a financial consultant who can guide you concerning how to spend money and on which things. Do research and study about the operations and running of online stores. Your financial consultant must be knowledgeable and expert in online store management as well as inventory.
Storage space for expansion:
If and when you need a new space for storage, you will have to arrange for it as soon as possible. The internet is the greatest source of having knowledge concerning online store management, inventory, and storage. Study the way it works. You may need to do things like that in future for your own store. Keep a keen eye on everything going on and be ready to act according to the new situations.
Hard work for reputation:
You have to spare a reasonable amount of time for making your online store a success. First, you may not need to give long hours but once your store start running successfully, you will have to give full-time and attention to it.
With dedication and hard work, you will surely get the result of your efforts.

There are several reasons why people are broke. Here is my short list of reasons why people are broke and will continuously be broke. Your attitude towards money began when you were a child. You had great instructors and in most cases, they were your parents. Remember the axiom "from the root to the fruit?" Usually the fruit does not fall far from the tree, meaning that you are usually a product of your parents thinking. Sound Familiar?
Instead of waiting for your fate to magically change. You may want to take a serious look at all the things you are doing that may be contributing to your financial despondencies. That's right. Everything may actually be your own doing. Here are several known motives why people find themselves broke. You may recognize a few of them. If you follow some of the advice I am about to share with you, in time you will be able to dig yourself out of the hole you dug for yourself.
Many people have crutches that hold them back in life. Some people smoke, drink, eat tons of fast food and don't run unless they are being chased by a rabid dog. So maybe your health is not so great, but at least you are having a great time. Chances are, your finances aren't in good shape either. In most cases, bad habits are a big financial drain on your pocket book and there is nothing great about that at all. As a matter of fact, most people that I have come in contact with have many crutches they are depended upon. No one wants to admit they are suffering from multiple addictions. One thing that I am cognizant of is that if people can give up their personal crutches and extinguish their bad habits they can amass large amounts of money in short periods of time.
Just think about it for a second, a pack of cigarettes costs $8.00 on average and that comes out close to $2,900 a year on a pack-a-day smoking habit. Now, as for alcohol, even restrained drinking can add up. Just think of it, two glasses of wine a day can run you over $1,500 a year, and that calculation is based on consuming the cheap stuff at home. If you are a bar drinker and you prefer Bordeaux, you are paying a whole lot more. Wow! And you complain that you don't have money to go anywhere. I wonder why.
Another reason why people go broke would be that they try so desperately to keep up with the Joneses and don't realize in most cases that the Joneses are living a lie. Just because someone is driving a new car or is wearing an expensive gold watch doesn't mean that they are high rollers. Many people are living off credit cards. 70% of the people in the United States are living well over their head. The IRS states that only 5% of the American people are financially independent. That means that 95% of the American people are faking it. You should never try to live a lifestyle you cannot afford.
Instead of purchasing a new vehicle you might want to check out other options like purchasing a used vehicle in excellent condition. No one will know if it is a new vehicle or not, unless you tell them. The raw reality of it all would be that no one truly cares about you anyway. Lets' put my theory to the test. I want you to go outside every day for a month and ask everyone that you know or passes by to help you pay off your mortgage and vehicle loan. At the end of the month I want you to count the small change you have collected. You will find out what I already know. You will be no closer to paying of your home or vehicle or anything else for that matter. You may have enough to purchase a couple cheese burgers at the golden arches. Now, if you are trying to purchase a home, you may want to put down 20% and keep your monthly payment below 30% of your gross income. The golden rule when purchasing a home would be to own the home and not allow the home to own you. Don't become a prisoner of your home due to trying to keep up with the Joneses.
Do you have more month at the end of your paycheck? Are you taking care of an entourage that is not taking care of you? It is time for you to take a good look at the people you surround yourself with. Are you hanging around the wrong crowd? Didn't your mother use to tell you about hanging around the wrong crowd? I know my mother did. She use to tell me repeatedly "birds of a feather flock together" and she was right. I learned the hard way by hanging with the wrong people and yes, it did lead to trouble. The funny thing about what my mother told me back then still applies to me today. You have to be very careful of the people you surround yourself with. Everyone does not wish you well. You have gold-diggers, leeches, and other parasites out there that will latch on to you and strip your wallet or purse clean without leaving prints. They will come around empty handed and help you drink up, eat up, and spend up your money until it is all gone and once everything is gone, you will find no trace of them until the next time they sense you have something they want or need. They never seem to come around when they have money. Anytime you seen them, they have a tall tale to tell.
You have to make a list and check it twice, for you have to find out who's been naughty or nice. You must shun the parasites in your life. There comes a time in everyone's life to where they have to become cognizant of where they stand. They must take out the trash and know that they will be better off for doing so. You must become disciplined if you stand any chance of negating any bad habits you formed while surrounding yourself by the wrong crowd. Let me be the first to tell you. It will not be an easy road to follow, but it is surely probable.
I know that many people dread hearing about watching TV too much, but if you are watching TV too much you may want to pay close attention to this segment of this article. I get it, there is nothing like coming home from work and kicking off your shoes, getting comfortable on the couch, and cutting on the TV. But if you are falling behind on your financial obligations you may want to re-evaluate your comfort commitments with your TV set and make some major changes to your life-style obligations. Research found that 77% of those struggling financially spent more than an hour watching TV and 74% spent more than an hour surfing the internet for fun. Conversely, the majority of wealthy individuals spend their time engaging in self-development activities, getting involved in alterative income producing endeavors, and/or follow paths of their dreams that could very well lead to hefty financial rewards.
Whatever you do, don't let laziness, uncertainty, or fear keep you from reaching for the stars. Taking baby steps is better than not taking any steps at all when it comes to producing an alternative stream of income. If you have a spare room in your home, you may want to entertain the possibility of renting that room out to make ends meet.
I am sure your parents badgered you about how important it was to get an education. I hate to be a bearer of bad news, but they are right. I found out from experience long ago that your income can't surpass your knowledge. Oops! I let the cat out the bag. Lets' compare life time earnings between a typical high school graduate and a typical college graduate with a bachelor's degree. I am sure you will agree that the statistics are bewildering. Over a 40-year career, a worker with a bachelor's will earn $1 million more than a worker with just a public high school diploma. This is not a misprint. $2.42 million versus $1.37 million, according to the U.S. Census Bureau projections. If you have a master's degree, it bumps you up to $2.80 million. That is one world of a difference, wouldn't you agree!
Please keep in mind that going back to school does not guarantee a bigger paycheck, but it sure does not hurt to do so. If you do decide to go back to school, you will want to be cognizant of how much student loan debt you amass. A good practice that you will want to follow would be controlling the student loan amount borrowed. You will not want to borrow any more than you expect to earn in your first year of work.
There are several other reasons why you are always broke but I did mention that this was my short list. Just know that it is possible to turn it all around if you put your mind, heart, and soul into it.
If you would like to learn more about not becoming broke you may want to pick up my latest book "The Essential Keys To Financial Freedom." at http://www.drmarkhuddleston.com What are you waiting for? Do it today!

You need to select an appropriate logo that can catch the eye of your potential customers as everyone wants to look at something interesting.

Typeface can also play an important role in your branding efforts. Go with something that's a combination of modern and simple.
2. Create a website
Your website will serve as a window into the online world and every business is judged by people based on its website. Yes, you can make a website yourself as you can easily find a website template these days, but it is best to consult a professional for creating a unique and beautifully designed website. It is not just the appearance that will matter; the website should be easy to navigate, provide the necessary information and be optimized for SEO and a professional can ensure all of this.
3. Make accounts on social media networks
Every business is aware of the strength of social media these days and a business cannot ignore its importance. Nevertheless, it doesn't mean that you must have a presence on all social media networks because there are too many and it is simply not possible to manage all. So, which ones should you choose? Bear in mind that not all social networks are suitable for every business and you should select those where your target audience is most likely to be. Make accounts on the selected networks and focus your marketing efforts there to build a presence.
4. Work on content
Building a digital presence involves allocating some resources into creating content for your website, social media posts and also a blog. Coming up with content that's related to your brand and industry can help you in building credibility online. You can become an authority and a source of information people refer to, which is incredibly helpful as it boosts your traffic and improves your SEO.

But hey, too much of it all, and you're only doing what the rest of the world is doing. Today, let's try and look through the things a little differently.
Let's deal with a few questions first.
Do you remember when exactly was the last time you ran a competitive analysis? Don't mind me asking it, but have you ever done it at all? If your answer is a big, naive no, then perhaps you don't have any idea how your digital marketing strategy stands compared to your competitors.
Let me tell you a secret, peeping over your competitors can be an unexpectedly wonderful can massively help you find your own shortcomings and in the process, help you get better at the game. I'm sure you've heard this saying countless times before - keep your friends close, and your enemies, even closer. And in the realm of online marketing, this is one quote you need to live by.
See, every business that exists on this planet has at least a competitor who's aiming for the bigger portion of the pie. So doesn't it make sense to know how your competitors are sailing more smoothly than you when both of you are dealing in the same products or services. If you look at it closely, it's quite a creative way to get a better understanding of your target audience. Once you're familiar with the tactics, you can formulate some really killer strategies.
Target audience and traffic: I'm sure that you think that you have a fair idea of who your customers are and where they come from. But a simple analysis can determine whether any of your competitors is attracting more traffic than you or not. It they actually are, it would be a wise idea to go for the strategies they're going for.
Content that matters: It's a misconception that anything that's original, it sells. Within an industry, there is only a limited type of content that gets shared. It could be anything - blog posts or weekly quizzes and surveys or Q&As. Perhaps your competitors know it better than you do.
You also get to know what doesn't work: The best way to progress is actually to learn through others' mistakes, don't you think? Your competitors can also go wrong. So it's a good idea to constantly monitor their marketing campaigns and learn what catches the eye and what just doesn't work with the masses.
And yes, always remember that there's no substitute to originality.
If you're not comfortable managing your digital marketing, it's best to hire an agency. Would love to learn more about it, schedule a call +91-9999-30-3344 with Brands Martini's digital marketing experts today.
As with virtually any business that a lot of people desire to enter in, this well regarded type of Online income from home or anywhere with an internet connection for that matter, has sufficient people entering the market that you can expect many competitors.
Success is determined by how fast you'll be able to leap the various knowledge barriers to be able to access the unlimited earning potential available through the internet.
Sad to say, getting over those barriers could (if you're certainly not careful) significantly slow up the "automated" aspect associated with building an Online Income from home. Surely in the beginning, building your Online Income from home will make for long days (sometimes a lot longer) days compared to standard 8 hour working days.
As soon as you start to realise your online income, chances are you'll still will need to evaluate factors as well as dedicate an hour here or there to maintain your income and keep it operating smoothly and enhance it to keep it making an online income for you.
The actual way of thinking associated with a person who succeeds in building a significant online income from home isn't "get it completed, then relax". You need to think of your online income as an investment.
In the beginning building a substantial online income from home usually begins with a significant investment, for those in the property business it a monetary investment. If you wish to make a large online income from home, dependent on your goals you'll certainly need to invest! In pushing through those barriers and building your online income, you will undoubtedly invest a lot of time.
The task of generating online income from home consists of 3 main choices:
-- Your business plan.
-- Your area of interest.
-- Your target market.
Knowing these 3 things, you can begin to put into action your business idea, test it and modify it until you possess the type of online income you want.
For all and the many articles, e-books and guru's on the web, the method to generating any sort of online income is usually fairly easy and remarkably simple.
1 -- Become an Affiliate!
Becoming an affiliate On the internet you can make you online income from home by prompting and advertising other peoples products and or services. This is by far the top acknowledged strategy to generate a big source of your online income from the internet.
To start with find an affiliate web site such as;
Click Bank
Payment Junction
Above are two of the most popular well known affiliate programs, but there are many, Do your research!
Once you have found your affiliate program(s).
Find a few products and or services preferably in a group that you know a bit about or you have done extensive research on. Preferably a product/service that provides or offers a subscription making it easier for you to generate a consistent online income from home.
Once you have chosen the products and services you wish to promote, the most profitable way of doing this is having your own website or blog.
Ensure the commission per sale is decent, do some keyword research to make sure there is a demand for the product/service. Immediately after understanding precisely what keywords and phrases people are using that relate to your offer, select a few of the keywords you researched that have low to medium competition. Then start to write articles and useful info surrounding the product/service you are promoting. SEO optimize your blog or website using the keywords you have researched to improve the blog, start posting your articles/reports around the internet. Once the targeted traffic quantities begin rising, utilize a number of adverts relating to the product/service you are promoting. after reading your articles/reviews people click the related adverts, and Bazinga! you just received your first pay check.
Now repeat the above and duplicate your success! before you know it you have 10 or maybe something like 20 information sites, or perhaps 100s if you wish to make a considerable online income from home.
2 -- Build a email list!
Building a list of potential buyer's to market your products to is another way to earn a considerable online income from home just by finding products to promote and sending the info to your list, when anyone on your list opens the email and buys the product or visits the site your promoting, you get paid. Knowing what type of market place you want to catch the attention of, assemble a totally free product or even just a relevant useful report people can download for free when they signup to your email list. Now just drive targeted traffic to a "landing page" that requires this visitors' email. You can also install plug-ins presently known as squeeze pages that pop up with an e-mail join box, when people check out your current page. This is a great way to build up a targeted client list to promote future products and offers to.
Make use of a great auto-responder such as aWeber (Paid for) or GetResponse (Free) to be able to email your current clients the link to be able to download the product or service or maybe high quality info you have to offer, as well as follow-up with a series of (automatically sent) e-mail. By offering top products and services and quality free info and advice over weeks and months, You can build some rapport with your subscribers and then sell them on numerous products or affiliate offers. Make sure you break it up though, it is advisable to offer something of value and free just about every 3-4 mail outs or so.
Imagine you build a list of 500 subscribers, offer them a product via a link in their email, and every person you refer that buys the product earns you £20 and only half your list (250) click through and buy the product you just made £5000 sending an email, and you can do this 1-2 a week! hell you could do this everyday but I advise against it remember nobody likes spam! I suggest 1-2 regular emails per week with occasional time based offers in between.
This is a fantastic method to put into action along side your affiliate plans and take you online income from home to the next level! Now imagine those earnings based on a list of 10,000+ subscribers! = Profit!!!
3 -- Sell products directly online
As we move further and further into the digital age, customers are buying more and more goods on the internet at a substantial pace. Because of this there are a lot of customers looking for just what YOU can supply them with.
Checkout these online store providers
Shopify.com (Paid)
FreeWebstore (Free/Paid upgrades)
and of course eBay (Various Fees)
They can supply you with all the tools, services and support you need to start generating your online income. You can source wholesalers and manufactures for the product you need directly on the internet BUT do your research first, and make sure you are dealing with reputable, reliable and responsive company before placing any big orders. If you are unsure of the company try a few small orders first to test their service once you are happy with the companies service and product quality go ahead and make a bulk order.
Numerous people have verified that Shopify.com is a wonderful platform to promote goods on the web. Open up a digital shop and promote it. People buy your products. The product or service is sent to them, while you kick back and think about how to spend your new found online income as it rolls in.
In the event Shopify is just not your current cup of tea, then you can try out eBay. As the saying goes, "One man's trash is usually an another man's treasure", and so have a look through your current cabinets as well as outdoor storage sheds don't forget the attic! and market off some of your current unwanted excess gifts.
Some people love to travel and find bargains and if your one of those people you can make a lot of money on eBay by finding and visiting garage sales, car boots even charity shops for well under priced products you can instantly turnaround and sell for a profit on eBay, I know several people who do this that come to mind, going out buying stuff, tidying it up and selling it online from home. Another is my auntie who I love dearly but she is a real horder, who sells occasionally just to fund her holidays.
4 -- Sell your own individual info product
Earn Online Income from home by selling your own product. Passionate about a specific subject or topic? Write an e-book, publish it and sell it online. Your information product may also come in the form of a DVD, software package, audio guide or maybe online video.
Selling your own information product unlike other peoples products, allows you to control a large percent of the earnings. You have greater flexibility with upsells as well as landing pages compared with selling other peoples products, this is a very lucrative business route to follow and depending on your product and marketing methods can generate a ridiculous online income from home at an alarming rate.
If promoted and produced successfully this can easily become #1 when it comes to online incomes from home, especially when you merge this with #2 and use your product to build and promote your list.
That Concludes my top four online income methods from home, I started with #1 I chose to promote a company called SFI as it was free and offered a multitude of different training marketing methods and support, but it wasn't until I branched out into methods #2 #3 and #4, that I really had the online income from home I wanted, these days I rarely work from home. With my new found income I suddenly found my friends an family pool increased accordingly too. So I maintain my online income from anywhere I can jump on Wi-Fi connection with my laptop or smartphone.
We all learn things at our own pace and style usually, inside the very first couple of months you will be generating around £10 - £20 daily (That a tank of gas, internet or phone bill covered at least), If you continue to duplicate these business models as well as create completely new content material for each of your niche's, your currently targeted traffic can only grow and grow therefore so will your online income from home, there is no reason at all why you couldn't be earning £100 a day online, that's the latest pair of shoes, clothes, gadgets on a daily basis or perhaps a weekend away with your partner, family and friends.
Wishing you the best of success on the internet and life in general!

We live in a world where people are overwhelmingly focused on visuals, and, especially when it comes to the internet, appearance is everything. What customers see when visiting your website has an enormous impact on the success of your online business. When considering the most successful online retailers, they all have one thing in common: a streamlined and visually stunning website complete with high-quality, professional imaging.
It is crucial as a business owner to present the product you are selling in the best way possible, and in an online setting this means presenting it through good, clean images. With a well-designed site complete with great images, any business can be successful-but why is that? We've written a little more about it to help you have a better understanding as to why good, clean images are so important for eCommerce and online retail stores.
Humans Are Visual Creatures
The science behind why people react positively and quickly to images as opposed to text is actually quite simple-images can be immediately deciphered by the brain, whereas text is a language that must be decoded in order for the brain to comprehend. This is why it is so important to have good, clean images on your eCommerce/online retail store-customers will have an immediate reaction to the images as their brains will immediately comprehend and judge them.
Research has shown that the human brain processes visuals 60,000 times faster than it processes text, meaning that your online customers will be processing the image of your product before they even read the title or product description. Having clean, high-resolution visuals on your website will help customers become interested in the product before they even know all the details.
You Can't Sell High-Quality Product without High-Quality Images
It's really that simple. If you don't have good, clean images of the products you are selling on your website, then people will not believe that they are quality products. This is a prime example of getting a return out of the amount of work that you put in. If you are designing your website to include low-res, visually cluttered, or stock images, then your customers are not going to believe that you are serious about your business and will not want to spend their money there.
It also has a lot to do with the perceived authenticity of the website. There are a lot of scam websites on the internet these days, and often customers will perceive an online retailer or eCommerce business with bad images as a scam, whether it is or not. You do not want your website to read as inauthentic to its visitors, and there is a really simple solution to this: have your images done professionally, take the images on your website just as seriously as you take the rest of your business, and present your product in the best way possible.
The Takeaway
In order to have a successful eCommerce business, you must first focus on making sure that your products are justly represented through good, clean images so that your customers have an accurate visual representation of the business that you run.
The best way to handle this is by outsourcing tasks such as photo-editing such as Clipping path, background removal, retouch etc., to a photo editing agency that specializes in producing high-quality image edits like ClippingArts ( http://clippingarts.com/ ).
How soon before I make money? I hear that question all the time when I speak to people wanting to become digital entrepreneurs. First of all you don't make money you earn money. Furthermore if you are making money you are counterfeiting and I have to report you (a little humor there). Now when I hear this question it tells me several things:
1. Is this person looking for a quick buck? 2. Are they interested in acquire the skills to become a digital entrepreneur? 3. Why do the they need the money so fast? 4. Do they have enough capital to sustain the business? 5. Do their expectations match the reality of the situation?
Another tell-tell sign is that experienced people in business and investing ask the question "How soon will I make my investment back?" It is not a play on words but the terminology people use lets me know your understanding about the business.
These Things Take Time
If you want to earn money fast go do a yard sale. Go sell all that crap in your house, garage, or storage unit that you haven't used in years. Or go to a temporary labor agency and do some hard labor. Usually you get paid the same day. But if you want to start a business... if you want to succeed... it's going to take some time.
It also depends on the business. There is a difference in starting up an e-commerce store and a network marketing business. In network market there are usually low entry fees and you can enroll people or sell your stuff right away. Really no skill set involved in asking your family to join you or help you buy your lotions, potions, and magic notions.
Now e-commerce takes a little longer. What platform will you use? What are you going to sell? Will you drop ship or carry inventory? How will you reach your customers? Who are your suppliers? Do you even know how to advertise? How will you develop the skills to actually succeed? How long before your quit? I ask these questions of my potential clients. They need to know the difference in having a business and making money.
How Log Will It Take?
This reminds me of myself when I started 5 years ago in Internet marketing. I had a completely different mindset. I was not thinking about building a business, I was thinking about making money. One of the big reasons why people don't get started with the right foot (and I don't say this in a bad way), is because they mix up making money online, with building a business.
I remember when my friends at work asked me what I was doing all the time with my computer. I told them "I have an online business. About marketing... blah blah... "
But then I asked myself "Wait, do I really have a business?" What happens if I stop reaching out to people to generate more sales? What happens if I'm not there in my computer? I stop making money...
That's when I noticed that I was not building a business. I was only looking to "make money online". For me it's very important that you understand that making money online and building a business online are 2 different paths that you take. Both are going to take your time either ways, so you would rather invest it in something that will yield results over a long period right? Now, to answer the questions "how soon before I start making money?"
It Depends...
The first thing I would like to mention is that it depends on so many things. Let me list a few:
How bad you want it. How much does it hurts to stay in your current situation?
How much time you can invest on your business
How much capital you can invest
If you can stay motivated not only when things are going well, but when they are going terrible
How consistent you will be with the daily tasks that you have to accomplish
Which strategies you use to build your business (are they working currently?)
How patient you are to get results
How much you test with your advertising campaigns
A little bit of luck, but not much
Here's the thing... Every time someone asks me how much time it will take before they make money, I immediately see that the person won't be patient enough to go through the process. There's already very high expectations of how fast and easy it will be to make money. Even if you are going through a tough moment in your life, or if you have financial struggles, you have to be willing to not get results when you get started. Building a business has so many obstacles, difficulties and unexpected situations, that giving a range of time to get results it's really hard.
Now, Is this the answer you were looking for? Probably not. But I couldn't think of a more real answer than this one. Building a real business is tough and most people think it's easy. So when they face an obstacle they get unmotivated. You want to have a drive that's so powerful that even if you face technical obstacles, or you lose money, you will still be there fighting like a warrior.
Because to "make money online", it can take a couple of days if you get a bit luck and get sales, but to build a business it takes years. I got my first sale 40 days after I stated my business. Then it took me another 43 days to make my second sale. Yes... 83 days almost 3 months to earn less than $100. Not impressive at all is it? Start thinking about the long-term gratification and how your life will look like after you build a stable brand that generates income day in and day out because you built a strong foundation.

Drop shipping is a supply chain management system that has given the e-commerce industry a vertical growth. Once you understand what exactly is drop shipping, the different methods that exist, and how to get a reliable drop shipper it is easy to get started on your own and engage in a profitable business.
Interestingly, the community of drop shippers and their clients are ever growing and several blogs and forums will give you the much-needed information and boost on the subject.
So what exactly is this method of operation? In simple words, dropshipping is a supply chain management system where the manufacturer ships the products directly to the retailer's customer and the retailer makes the profit!
In this case, the reseller I.e you, do not have to store products that you need to sell, nor do you have to block your money by investing in the product stock. Thus you save storage space and money. Further, you need not engage the services of any staff in handling and packaging the products as the product gets shipped directly from the wholesaler to your customer.
So effectively what you do is create your own website, upload some products for sale, and do the marketing. When you get an order from your customer, pass on the order to the drop shipper who will ship the goods on your behalf. The difference between your sale price and the price at which you order from the drop shipping manufacturer is your profit.
Though operationally it looks like a simple business model, the following questions need serious understanding.
1. How do you find a reliable drop shipper?
2. How do you market the products?
3. Which niche products should you market?
4. How to create a website?
5. How to successfully upload and price a product?
6. What is the guarantee of product delivery to your customers?
7. Shipping and Refund policies?
There are several other factors that may come up in your mind which could be essential to your business success.
Well, it is not all that difficult to get answers to the above queries if you spend some time researching and understanding the subject matter. You will notice that it is easy to understand why drop shipping has become more popular, as it reduces the number of times an item has to be handled before it gets to the end customer.
If however, you still feel that it is a tedious manual process, then you can consider a completely automated working system that ensures a smooth operation. All that you need to do is get a hosting plan, find a good domain name for your business and install a plugin that automates your business 24x7.
With some little effort, you too can start a Home Business and reap the benefits of this exciting supply chain management process.
