What a knucklehead!
When I first started online, I had no idea what this online biz stuff was all about. With almost 25 years in sales, marketing and business management, how hard could it be, right?
With an entrepreneurial spirit and absolutely no idea what I wanted to be when I grew up, I dove right in.
First, I tried an eBay store. That was a whole lot of work with very little profit. I just didn’t enjoy it.
Next was the pre-fab SMC drop ship estore thing. Drop shipping is where a wholesale warehouse company sells a ready-made store full of their products. You sell their products and make a very small profit and the company ships the goods. No stocking of inventory and no shipping hassles, however unless you are selling a butt load of products, the profit margin is pretty low.
Then I jumped into network marketing selling a nutritional product that I still use, really love and believe in. I wasn’t comfortable promoting a network marketing product. It just wasn’t a good fit for me and frankly it cost me an arm and a leg. I went in the hole $7,000 with that one!
By this time I’d been at it a couple of years and was getting nowhere fast and making NO money.
Finally I had to admit that I needed help. My offline business and marketing experience just wasn’t helping me much online. I had no technical skills and needed to get an education to learn how to build a business and market it online.
My education journey began…
I learned and learned and learned – and learned some more. By this time I was so fearful and my confidence so low that I wasn’t implementing what I was learning. I had developed a poverty mentality. And Oy! the money I spent and the time I wasted.
What if you know now what I didn’t know then?
Here are six strategies you can use in your online biz to start making money quicker:
