Three Mistakes Killing Progress In Your Online Business

By Russ Howe


Before you attempt to make money online take a moment to look at the statistics. Over 90% of people who try to become their own boss via the internet fail to see any results. Today we'll run through why this happens.

While there are many people out there who believe every online business is a scam or pyramid scheme, you also have a massive group of people who are just as misguided. This group believe they can make a lot of money by simply getting lucky, being in the right place at the right time with a ground floor opportunity. Both of these groups of individuals are common in the MLM and affiliate marketing industry, but neither gets results.

Take a look at those who are achieving results and you may well be surprised to discover that they are not internet guru types. They tend to be regular people, quite similar to those who complain they can't get any results, but they have a few major differences in the way they treat their business. The actual business itself doesn't even matter. It could be Mary Kay, Empower Network or any other established affiliate program. If you get the basic rules in place, you tend to see better results. []

What causes this massive separation? After all, most of the folks who are getting great results seem to be regular, everyday people with no discernible difference from anybody else. There are a few very big factors which play an important role in separating the successful from the unsuccessful in this industry.

* Planning.

* Your attitude can be your best friend or your worst enemy.

* Work ethic.

The principles to becoming your own boss lie within the three rules given above. It doesn't really matter which business you choose, there are several hundred online which offer various ways of working from home and different things appeal to different people, so be sure to take your time and choose your opportunity for your own reasons rather than hype. Once you have done that, however, be sure to apply today's principles.

The first step is setting out a business plan. One of the beautiful things about working online is that you can join an affiliate program which doesn't require any 'ground work' on your part. The company is more than likely already established and you are dealing with what is essentially a ready-made home based business. This can also be a negative, however, as lost people people don't take their opportunity seriously. If you don't set out a long-term plan you won't reach success. This is the first rule of going into business for yourself.

Secondly, attitude plays a massive part. Speak to anybody who is successful in life and the first thing you will notice about them is their attitude. They live for what they do. They breathe it. More often than not, they are people who look to make the most of a situation rather than use it as an excuse to fail. You cannot fake this aspect, it comes from who you are. Not everybody is cut out to be their own boss.

While many people talk a big game, few people actually want it as badly as they make out. They like the idea of the end result but not the effort required to get them there. Work ethic will play a vital role in your journey. You need to treat your opportunity with the serious attitude it deserves and you need to put in the work for yourself. Try to do something each day of the week to move you closer to your long-term goal.

Despite all the advertisements you may see online promising to teach you how to make money online with a secret guide to instant riches, the rules of success remain largely unchanged from those which apply to running a business in the high street.
