How hard can it be, right? Come on, there are tens of thousands of fools on the net making a killing so why not you?

Well, here’s why:

You are probably one of the majority of folks that would love to start your own (Internet) business. So you think about it, research it, discuss it with some family/friends. Then you research some more and you even sign up for a Google Fast Cash system for just $2.95 or even buy an ebook or two on how to make make money with Adwords, etc. etc. etc.

Then within the first few days/weeks/months, you decide that you’ve been scammed and just give up or what’s more to the point is that you never even start reading your materiasl to get you started. So you just keep preparing for that one day when you’ll get started on your Internet business.

Well guess what? If you aren’t willing to take definitive steps TODAY and every day towards your goal, it ain’t happening. You’re going to be one of those people who talks like a big player but will never even get to the minor leagues.

You’ll pathetically whine in the bleachers and talk about how you ‘could’ve’ made it in the big leagues except for…and the excuses roll in.

• Fact: millions of NEW Internet users pop-up every year.
• Fact: there are ordinary people making extra-ordinary income.
• Fact: many of these people have never stepped onto a college campus.
• Fact: many of these people have masters, PhD’s or medical degrees and have GIVEN up their chosen field for a more lucrative Internet business.
• Fact: your biggest factor is YOU. Your negative self talk is worse than anything anyone can say to you.

Many people do not ever get around to starting an Internet business because they are afraid of everything that is involved. Contrary to popular belief it is not that hard to start an Internet home business of your own. Here’s a look at the most common questions and answers you might have about starting an Internet business.

1. How expensive is yet to get started?

Because most people want to start a business on the Internet to make money they do not have a lot of money to invest. You may be surprised to know that there are many Internet businesses you can start online for free!

Again, I spent about $3,000 which is a hell of a lot less than the $120k plus for my first salon & over $1.4 million for the gas station, but I am of the mindset that even $100 is a lot of money and needs to be invested wisely.

You can also purchase on existing online business which you can even find on Ebay or Craigslist.

2. What is the best Internet business to get started with?

A good rule of thumb is to find something that is interesting, or possibly you have a passion for. Because there are so many products available to sell in the affiliate marketing business model, you can always get started this way and find products that relate to the niche you have a passion for.

Niche marketing is one thing you will see online a lot today and this is where you target a specific market and try to make money with it. This is a great way to start an Internet home business.

3. Do I need any special training?

You certainly do not need a college education to become an Internet marketer. However, starting an Internet business and making it successful are two totally different things. To run a successful business on the Internet takes skills and you must invest time to acquire the knowledge it will take to become successful at the level you strive to be.

I’ve come across many people with both brick & mortar & internet businesses that fail because they do not have an entrepreneur’s mindset. They’re too caught up in their own egos to really take the steps necessary to make their business successful.

One of the common attributes of a real entrepreneur is the ability to self teach. In order to do this, you have to have inner motivation and self discipline. If you have these things, you are ahead of 80% of folks who try to open their own business.

There are tons of training on the internet as well as tons of ebooks. If you’re looking for something in particular, email me & I’ll point you in the right direction. Lee (at) TruthParlor.com

4. How many hours a week do I have to work?

Once you get a system in place, and are successful, you can run an Internet business on just a few hours a week. There are numerous examples of people who spend no more than a couple hours a day to earn thousands of dollars every week. Others are extremely happy to earn an extra few hundred dollars a month and control their schedule.

I personally spent about 12-14 hours a day when I first started my online ventures (well, I spent that many hours when I started my brick & mortar businesses too), but the difference is comfort. It’s certainly much easier to put in those hours in the comfort of your own home.

Now, you can certainly start with less hours if you have a full time job already. Just be patient and know it will take longer unless you jump head first into PPC marketing as described above.

These might have been a few of the questions you had about starting an Internet business. The best way to find out if running an Internet home business is for you is to get into the game and give it a try.
