Before You Make Money Online

By Russ Howe


If you're currently attempting to make money online in your spare time you have undoubtedly encountered the masses of people trying to sell you miracle systems or must-have accessories for your business. Today we're going to show you exactly why most people in this industry fail and we're going to pull no punches.

Today's coach will prove to be an eye-opener.


Full time dad Russ Howe explains how he was able to make money online despite starting with nothing.



You'll encounter masses of people trying to sell you a quick solution to all of your financial problems. In fact if you were able to line them up end-to-end you'd probably circle the globe more than once. There is no miracle solution.

The fact is you will become another failure statistic unless you get real with your business. Nobody can become your own boss for you. Always remember that. Like any industry, there will always be countless individuals or companies waiting to prey on the naive nature of others.

Before you begin on any journey with a view to self employment you must complete the simple check list shown below.

* You need a goal. Set a long term goal for your business. Where do you see it in two years from now?

* Do something you actually enjoy. It's your business, after all.

* You must do something, even if it's very little, to build your business every single day from now on. Most online marketers aren't silly, they're lazy. That's what separates the successful from the unsuccessful.

All three points work in tandem with each other. By setting up point number two, for example, you will make point three far easier. It's easier to build your business every day if you actually enjoy your business, right?

People get swept up in the moment of excitement when they first discover a way to become their own boss. They forget the reality. You don't go from broke to a beach in Barbados overnight. They lose interest in the dream when they realize the work needs to put in towards getting there. Most people do not fail, they simply quit.

We see this all the time, even in established businesses such as Empower Network you come across people who believe it's just going to happen for them. The main asset involved in becoming self employed is not your intelligence, bank balance or who you know. It's simply your drive.

That makes it sound easy, of course, because if you ask anyone who has suddenly decided to do this they'll tell you that they are determined as hell. The truth is, however, you only discover how much you really want it once the novelty wears off.

Look at the real world for an example. Not everybody who sets out to create their own business actually succeeds. That's because not everybody has the stomach for self employment. It's a tough gig. But if you are trying to make money online the first rule is realizing the big secret - there is no 'secret formula'.
