What are the Biggest Mistakes in Starting an Internet Business
Jul 10th, 2007 by Charles
Think some more…
From the beginning of the business, thinking is a very powerful tool to invent your business from scratch. Don’t just follow and do something as people tells you.. Think over them and learn to know why it is done this way… Of course, action is the only thing that makes a business a success… When you have something urgent to be done, just do it first… Then ponder over it and think how to improve it even better! Go and get assistance from books and tools for your brain to digest as you think along…
Lousy Time Mangement!
Time management is so useful… Set aside some time for your business, reading up, your family, your girlfriend, your friends and relatives.. Life consists of everything in you… You don’t just do business only… You also have your own family to accompany… You still need to do more exercise to keep yourself fit while coming back to sit and work…
No faith in Internet Marketing
While it sounds a good idea to do website at home and make money, you might not have the faith that it’s going to cover your monthly salary so that you don’t have to wake up early and work for other people and keep complaining… Internet marketing is definitely not magical… It’s just a another business model for us to tap on which is a very powerful one… While there’s failure in business, treat each failure as a learning step to your greater success!
Not Going Through the Process
Don’t ever think of taking shortcut to be successful… Success is always been determined by people who have worked hard for it.. And the difference between them is working smart versus not working smart… Working smart and working hard are two different issues altogether! I wonder why people tend to put them together and say “You got to work smart! Not work hard!” This is WRONG! We got to work hard and work smart!
Learning only from one source
You might want to learn from various sources to get your exposure to your niche… Don’t just rely on one person… Learn from the people who can teach you different areas to cover where you are lacking… See how they did it and thank them for it.. It’s always polite to do that because people only like to do business with “friends” and not strangers…
Lazy Bum!
Sorry that Internet marketing is not for lazy people to make money… Yes you might be sleeping late and waking up late… But your work must still be finished on time just like any other business!
Fear
Some people just have some fear which cannot be explained… If they can just go ahead and do what they need, they would have been successful…
Copy Cats
While ideas are built upon ideas, some people simply have no ideas and keep copying… Don’t copy… Innovate! In the end, you can’t find your momentum of doing your business and you have missed that important learning curve right from the start!
Take Control!
When we start to take control of what we are doing, we are forcing ourselves to start looking from scratch. Have a good look at the things that make your business work… Try them out and go through the process…
I bought Stuart Tan’s book on Secrets of Internet Millionaires. Read something along this topic and thought I would want to write something better.
