Don’t Let the Recession Stop You from Starting Your Own Business
Many people who are interested in starting a home business assume that because the country is in a major recession right now, this is not the time; however, I ask you to consider the facts:
1. For most of the big decisions in life, e.g., getting married, having a child, starting a business – there is never a “right” time; there is only today.
2. To become wealthy, you really need to own your own business (93% of the already wealthy do).
3. In 2006, Fortune magazine called direct selling, including network marketing, “the best kept secret in the business world” with a 91% growth over the previous 10 years. It has a market of $30 billion in the United States and $100 billion worldwide. By 2012, that figure is expected to reach 6 billion.
4. Financial experts call network marketing a “recession proof” industry.
5. Warren Buffet called his purchase of a network marketing company the best investment he’d ever made.
6. Tom Peters, author of In Search of Excellence, called it the first truly revolutionary marketing shift in the past 50 years.
7. Internet businesses don’t feel the impact of gas prices, parking fees and childcare expenses.
8. Owning a home business provides significant tax advantages.
9. You, too, can become successful with an online business as long as you have basic language skills, and the ability to point, click and follow directions.
10. The Internet gives you more control of your financial future than a 9-5 job. You’re the boss, and the upside is incredible! You really can make a lot of money.
Affiliate programs are doubtless the easiest paths to initiate an online business, and most of them also include coaching per the product that you will be promoting for them.
The difficulty with most online businesses is that their coaching is narrow, and generally centered only on instructing you regarding their product (s). Sadly, you will have to have more information and skills than that.
A superb starting point for gathering all the rest of the education about internet marketing that you will need is to sign up for the Online Success for Beginners program.
Don’t be discouraged if you want to start a new business – hundreds of thousands of new businesses will launch in the next 12 months; yours could be one of them. Is this the right time for you to join them? Aren’t you ready to leave all the job-related stress behind you?
Carpe Diem! Don’t waste any time, seize the day! Today is the day to start an online business .
