Work at Home With an Internet Business & Make Money  

Posted by FITRI. R in ,

Is it really possible to make money working at home, doing business on the internet? Of course, we all hear of the get rich quick schemes, and the few entrepreneurs who came up with a staggering idea and are now millionaires, almost overnight, as a result. But for the ordinary individual working away from nine to five in a city office, is it really possible to make a good, honest living through the use of web technology?

The answer is

a resounding yes, but let's have a look at the very real options available, and why this is the case. Let's also consider some of the issues which can give the internet a bad name. Certainly for every individual who put the time, trouble and effort to properly research, plan and prepare for running their own business online there are plenty of people who dabbled, had a quick go, and lost substantial sums of money.

Let's be completely clear - the internet is not a money making machine, and it is highly unlikely that you'll become rich in a year's time using the internet alone. However, if you're prepared to give it serious thought, and prepared to put in the time and effort to do a proper job, then there is certainly no reason at all why you can't earn a decent living. The fact that you work at home, earn a living and in some cases even make money while you sleep is of course a huge bonus.

One of the easiest ways to get started is to consider buying into an internet franchise. For a fee, you can buy in to the business model, and receive permission to use the brand name, image and products, selling as though it was your own. This can provide you with the freedom to work from home but with less risk than trying to start from scratch.

If you have a look on the internet, you will find a huge number of online franchise opportunities, but be careful not to become too taken in by sales talk. If the opportunity sounds too good to be true, it almost certainly is. No franchise is going to turn you into a millionaire overnight and what they don't tell you when giving you estimated or potential income is that in order to even come close to that figure you would have to work around the clock!

Once you have found a scheme which looks good, and sounds the sort of thing that would really interest you, sit down with a pen, paper and a calculator and work the figures out for yourself. Don't rely on their estimates, but work out just what you feel it would take to earn the kind of income you need and how many hours you are prepared to commit.

Work out a worst-case scenario as well. What could be the worst that could happen? Months with no income and more money than anticipated going out to set the foundation is not uncommon. What could be the minimum on which you could survive whilst you wait for the business to start making a profit? Have you got enough set aside to pay the bills so that you can focus on growing the business without worrying about day to day household expenses?

One of the benefits of the internet is the fact that there are plenty of websites with information about internet franchises and other work at home schemes. You would do well to spend time browsing through these and seeing the advice that is there. There are plenty of tips available for free as well as advice on how to spot scams.

Make full use of these online facilities to make sure that you have not only found answers to all of your questions and concerns, but you've also found plenty of information which addresses those questions that arise due to your research.

Of course, for the really brave there is always the possibility of starting up your own home business from scratch. Certainly, this will give you the greatest flexibility and independence, with the freedom to run your own business the way you want to. You will undoubtedly have to work very, very hard to get things started. You will have to decide and create your own branding, design your logs and stationary and make your brochures, and this all before you start selling any products!

However, make sure that you join business networking sites like Ecademy as their you will find people who are able to help you address many concerns, such as accountancy to marketing, website building to promotion, search engine optimization to advertising. There are many aspects to running an internet business, and in order to get it right, it will do you a great deal of good to make these connections with other people who have perhaps already ventured down that same path and that can offer you the benefit of their experience.
