Understanding The Rules Of Online Business Success

By Russell Howe


With so many individuals becoming affiliates of programs like Empower Network and Vittel, it would make sense to take some time to learn the rules to online business success. When you are trying to make money online there are a few unwritten laws which, if applied correctly, will greatly enhance your chances of success.

Sadly, most people who jump into the online business industry fail to take themselves or their chosen business program seriously enough. This leads to over 90% of people failing in their attempt to become their own boss.

There are striking similarities here with real-world businesses, too. Much like affiliate programs, most high street businesses commonly fail within the tough first year.

Despite the marketing which makes it look easy, the fact is self employment isn't made for everyone. You can't reach success until you get the right mentality in place. The three rules given today will help to effectively grow any business they are applied to, providing you are willing to put in the effort. []

* Understand that there is no short-term remedy for long-term success.

* Don't focus on simply 'building a wall', focus on laying an individual brick as perfectly as you can. Eventually you will have a superb wall.

* The quickest way to reach success is to help others to do the same thing.

Now we will run through the points for you in a little more depth, clearing up any doubt you may have as to their meanings.

The biggest issue with most home businesses is that many affiliates are looking for an instant ticket to riches. This is partially down to the way opportunities sometimes market themselves, and partially down to the affiliate trying to find an easy way to become their own boss. You should lose that mentality if you want to become successful in your chosen opportunity.

If you speak to any successful entrepreneur they will agree that once you are able to get past the hype surrounding home businesses you will be able to get far superior results.

Our second rule is about consistency. As Will Smith once said, "When the other guy is sleeping, I'm working. When the other guy is drinking beer, I'm working..." One of the biggest mistakes you can make as a budding internet marketer is to treat your online business like a part-time hobby, or something you choose to do for five minutes every few days. If you do that it will not grow into anything substantial.

By applying even just a small effort every single day you can make a big long-term change to your chances of success. What may seem like a small effort mounts up over the course of six months to a year and, before too long, you have built a great foundation of content for your brand. []

The final point is one which often causes confusion. Many sponsors in affiliate programs tend to provide little support to those who sign up underneath them. This is a big mistake, because it leads to a lack of retention. While it is partially understandable that they might not want to tell others their secrets for fear of increasing their own competition, this is a bad move to make.

Rather than seeing your own referrals as competition, see them as team mates. Most businesses of this kind reward you further if your team mates or referrals go on to achieve success, so as well as improving your own retention rates you will also gain financial rewards from others succeeding in their own business, too. Furthermore, your reputation as a helpful sponsor will be greatly enhanced.

There are a number of ways to make money online nowadays. Overall, it doesn't really matter if you choose to do it with a company such as Primerica, Empower Network or anything else. The key to success lies in your ability to take your business seriously and apply your efforts to growing your brand on a consistent basis.
