Online Business: 14 Steps to Start Your Business (Part 2)

Step 9. Build Your Brand

Start to think up domain names as soon as you decide on the direction of your business. You need a name that will be short, easy to write and memorize, free and ideally with the extension “.com”. There is not many much left, however, the task may be more difficult than it seems. After getting a good domain name, register in the most popular social networks, using the name of the brand as a username. This is necessary so that customers can easily find you (and that these names are not occupied by your competitors).

Step 10. Overcome Your Past

Everything in the past has to do with where you are at the moment. Perhaps you were disappointed, but now a new day has come. Most of us rely on ideas laid down in childhood. And our expectations are due to the alleged “instant success”, which is promoted by television and the Internet. This can lead to frustration, self-doubt and even a sense of failure. A small success in the network today can bring you more income, increase your professionalism and develop self-confidence.

Step 11. Do Not Wait for Approval with A Sinking Heart

We all seek endorsement from others. In business sphere, the approval of superiors is the most important, but the approval of colleagues, subordinates, and clients is also important. If you want to feel good, you will also need the approval of friends, relatives, and spouse. Unfortunately, working alone, getting approval is not easy.

You should develop sufficient confidence in your ideas so that you can implement them even when you do not have a boss behind you. This, by the way, can change your life more than money. Self-esteem is earned, not bought, and it brings dividends every day. Keep moving on and soon you will realize that real freedom is an opportunity to do what you like. You will be truly productive, and will not waste time trying to impress colleagues or your boss.

Step 12. Find Online Support

With the help of a network around the world, you can find friendly people who share your interest in self-development and entrepreneurship. They will be happy to help you cope with what prevents you from improving your life. Try to communicate in social networks and forums, discussing issues related to your chosen field or industry. By becoming part of these communities, you will be able to strengthen your success.

Step 13. Create Projects, Not Companies

Provide yourself with specialists who will perform what you do not know yet or do not want to do. On the Internet, you can find information, support, or people who can help in the implementation of almost any task. When you are ready, you can take a step forward and begin to manage your own projects, turning them into a business. Create new sites and transfer them to someone else for little money and move on to the next project! Implement several successful projects, and you will have a team of people, each of which can be contacted for a specific task. This makes it possible to repeat operations, creating new projects, and turning them into business.

Step 14. Avoid The “Jealousy Machine”

Try not to compare yourself to others. You may think that many of you are superior, but you do not see the whole picture. Many worked diligently for several years before you came to the Internet, others are supported by large companies, previous experience, family money, personal connections, or they have other advantages that are not available to you.

Social media is not a real life. It is more like a meeting of classmates, when everyone chooses, about what to tell. And they exaggerate all the good! Perhaps you will become worried if the audience of competitors (or even friends) is greater.

But remember: you have embarked on this path because you are determined to create your vision. Build an online business honestly to receive rewards for your hard work and create a decent life for those who are most dear to you.

Perhaps the idea of starting your business seems like a global, frightening event, but today it’s simple and cheap, like never before. You can go to larger markets, despite the fact that you are not an expert in the field of Internet technologies, which was previously impossible. Even small ideas can turn into large profit generators.
