Do You Treat Your Home Based Business Like A Business?
At this point the voice transferred me to another wonderful voice that represented a group of Internet Marketing strategy Consultants. This voice asked me a series of questions. Some I refused to answered because it was just none of their business and others because I just did not want to answer them. This did not discourage the voice at all. In fact they were in full agreement with every objection I raised. The voice could not have been more of a friend.
In the past, learning how to trade would to take years to perfect. You would have to learn how to read price charts, recognize patterns, use oscillators and indicators, have sound money management techniques plus keep your emotions in line the entire time. It was no easy task!
When I stopped working, I found myself cutting back on expenses just so that I could generate more ‘operating capital’ for my business. Anyway, you’d probably be having too much fun with your business start-up to waste time on entertainment, buying DVDs, movies, going out to dinners, and shopping sprees just to name a few luxuries. You will be surprised how much money you can save for something of more value, your freedom!
Any business you want to start you have to put some work into it. Usually you have to work very hard at the beginning but the hard work pays off in the end. The best and only way to financial freedom is to have your own business.
There are going to be things you like more and less about working at home. Some things are harder to do or less interesting. As much as you can, spread those things out with things which are easier or more fun for you to do.
As a network marketer, your target market is other network marketers. Why? Because they ALREADY believe in the network marketing concept. You don’t have to spend time trying to convince and explain to them why having a home business is a smart move. You don’t have to explain the override concept or go over 100 objections on “Is this a pyramid?”. If you’re going to market online, and even offline to an extent, it’s imperative that you’re directing your message and getting in front of your target market. If you can do that successfully, you’ll see your success curve will be dramatically reduced and your message will be received 100 times better than when you’re talking to a bunch of unqualified, broke people who have no ambition or desire to improve their situation.
Especially if you have kids in the house while you work at home, there are some distractions that are harder to control than others. Household chores, television, pets, neighbors, friends and kids don’t always stick to your schedule. Do your best to deal with these by planning ahead for them.
