Starting your Business (With A Blog)

You should be motivated at this point to actually start something. You have decided to submerge yourself into some information from a book or a guru or somewhere and hopefully you have your game face on.

Begin with:


Finding out what business you are in!
Are you a network marketer!
Affiliate junky!
Services or Product person!

For the beginner I suggest focus on one area, master it, then create new interests or sites.
Let us the example of a network marketer.  I am a networker, so we can use me.  I have a networking business that I want to make money residual income from - lots of it.
My network marketing company already has a website for me.  I send people to my self replicated site and they get some information and they can either call me for more info or - some sites have an auto responder attached to it.  (Auto responder: is a box for you to enter your name, number, email.) Then I can contact the potential client or independent consultants when I am ready. That's great but......

1. How do I get people to go to that site?

2. What if they did check out my business and they are not interested - what happens?
          - Right they go away, never to be seen again.

So lets create something that will supplement and complement my business.
Sitting down with a paper and pen I jot down - my ideas on what I will create around my blog.  I have to have content - (relevant information to share with others).  I have some options - I can focus my discussions on what the business means to me and how it is benefiting me (make it personal). I can also, share with others what is working for my business and what is not working.  In addition, I can share some tips that I have uncovered along the way - this might require me to do some research at some point.  Really, at this point I am not just selling people on how great My opportunity is, but I have become a knowledge base for my readers.  Helping others and I feel good about it and so will you.!


Next blog will be about building your blog - step by step, what it will look it - what will be about.
Also, more or what supplement and compliment mean.

AMAZON IS LETTING US GO!

This is an actual letter from AMAZON.COM to all California associates Title:  Notice of Contract Termination Due to Potential New California Law Hello, For well over a decade, the Amazon Associates Program has worked with thousands of California residents. Unfortunately, a potential new law that may be signed by Governor Brown compels us to terminate this program for California-based participants. It specifically imposes the collection of taxes from consumers on sales by online retailers - including but not limited to those referred by California-based marketing affiliates like you - even if those retailers have no physical presence in the state. We oppose this bill because it is unconstitutional and counterproductive. It is supported by big-box retailers, most of which are based outside California, that seek to harm the affiliate advertising programs of their competitors. Similar legislation in other states has led to job and income losses, and little, if any, new tax revenue...

Internet Gurus

Hopefully you watched the 20min video in the previous blog.  Maybe someone even went to Amazon.com and checked into ordering the whole thing.  So I will just continue for the people who are ready to learn more. If you have a traditional business there is something for you here as well but the majority of the focus will be about online marketing and making money from the Internet. As you know the Internet has grown by leaps and bounds.   Perhaps you have been checking out different options on the Internet and the secret on how to succeed seems to elude you. I will lift the veil for you, but you will have to do your part - learning how to make money is more than me telling you to do step 1-5 and boom your rich.  You will have to participate in the activity.  Focus and take some time and interest in your own success. There are Internet Gurus out there who have ongoing training, videos and webinars that are a perfect fit for some.  There are also som...

Why Blog?

I think we all blog for different reasons.  Some blog to share information about their journey, whether its business or personal.  Others blog to get people to focus on their business and products.  I am listening to this webinar right now and the speaker is explaining that blogging should be about helping people first and foremost.  And by helping others solve their problems and needs is the most promising way to help yourself build your business.  Remember you do not have to be an expert, you just need the will and passion to continue and show that you are putting yourself out there.  It will require some effort on your part.  There are no free rides, unless you have a rich uncle and they died and they left you a lot of money.  Or the lottery.  We all play but only a small percentage of us will win.  Building a business requires some discipline and dedication.  I am guilty of waning, I go off and focus on other things, well ot...
