The Key to Success when Starting an Online Business
I’ve heard from a lot of people who have been financially impacted in the last few weeks that they’re thinking this is the time to start their own business. Some were already thinking about starting a business before all of this happened. While others hadn’t thought about starting a business before, but now need another way to make money that isn’t dependent on an employer.
I’ve been saying to all of these people that ANYONE can start a business. Your education, background, and past experiences don’t matter. What DOES matter is your desire and your commitment to SHOW UP for yourself and for the business you create. It doesn’t matter if you don’t have a logo or a website or testimonials from past customers.
What matters is that you are here to build a successful business.
A lot of new entrepreneurs feel uncomfortable or sleezy when it comes to promoting their business and particularly the idea of selling. But oftentimes, it’s because they’re not selling from a place of integrity. You’re not pressuring people to buy from you, you’re not pestering them until they buy or yell at you to go away. You’re connecting with your ideal customer and building a relationship. You’re educating them on how your business benefits them. And you’re letting them know how they can purchase. If you focus on education and value, it’s pretty difficult to ever feel sleazy when you’re selling.
In order to build a successful business, you need to set up a strong foundation for that business. And guess what? It DOESN’T have to take forever to do it.
You might also be wondering, do I need a logo? I can’t start selling until my website is done. What about my brand colors?!? A lot of new entrepreneurs I talk to struggle to start selling, because they think they need to have their branding locked down before they can promote their business.
But the thrush is, you don’t need any of those things to start making money in your business. I ran my digital marketing agency for 4 years and grew my revenue to $50k per year WHILE working a demanding full-time day job ALL without a logo, a website, or any branding at all. Those things are all nice to have but so often, new entrepreneurs use them as an excuse to avoid selling. You can have the most beautiful branding in the world but if you’re not promoting and pitching your business, none of it will make a difference. To be successful in business you have to promote it. Sell, promote, pitch, offer -- call it whatever makes you feel better, but at the end of the day, you’re still selling and it’s instrumental for your success.
Maybe you want to start your own business but you have no idea where to start?
Who would buy from you, you don’t have a lot of followers, you don’t know what type of content to create, how will customers even find you? Making money from your business is easy when you have a good marketing strategy.
