Online Business Ideas You Can Use TODAY!
By Stephen Beck | June 14th, 2010Are you looking for some online business ideas? Sometimes the ideas on the internet can be hypothetical, but if you are like me, you want to hear a real-life person’s story. You want to hear how he or she build a business from scratch and not because they are internet marketing experts. I know exactly what you mean.
So a little bit about us. My wife Kerry and I really are the couple next door. We are not gurus. We are just two people who happened to get into internet marketing by accident. We stumbled upon the secret to creating information products that are very profitable, require little time, and give us tremendous amounts of freedom. I am a poster child for somebody who started an internet company late in life. I did not start this thing until I was in my 40s. In fact, I started all of this because I was going to seminary and did not have my regular income.
Online Business Idea #1 – Start With What You Know
The truth is that if we can do it, you can, too. Like I said, I have not always had an online business. For 20 years, I did home remodeling. Then my wife started up a little company called Curriculum Connection. She wanted to help other homeschoolers find curriculum to use. As it grew, she began asking me, “Steve, do you know how to build web pages? How can we get online with our products?” So I started working on it, and even though I was clueless at first, I quickly figured it out. At the same time, I was in seminary.
So I was 2000 miles from home. No friends, no family, and no job. And I had to replace that remodeler income it took me 20 years to build. I had to replace it fast. And I had to do all of this in my part-time because seminary required me to read 15,000 pages a year!
So I started looking for the perfect business. And the reason I tell you this story is to say, “I know you are busy. I know you probably have a full-time job. I know that you are experiencing the same things I was experiencing. But you can start an online business on the side in your part time, and pretty soon, if you work it right, it will eclipse your day job.”
Online Business Idea #2 – Define Your Criteria
But like I said, I started looking for the perfect business, and these were my criteria. I wanted to do something one time and get paid over and over. I wanted to invest a few hours a week and get paid really well. I wanted to sell a product, have it get delivered, get paid, have my partners get paid if I had some, all without me doing a thing. I wanted it on autopilot. And I wanted not just to get paid one time for a product. I wanted to turn every sale into a monthly income stream. I wanted low start up costs, high reward for little risks. I wasn’t asking for too much was I?
You might say I had unrealistic expectations. But think about it. There is a business that would meet all my needs: creating and selling information products online. Once you have created it, you can sell it over and over again.
You start off by spending a little time packaging quality content, market it on the internet, and then sell it quickly and painlessly. You really could almost put the whole thing on auto pilot.
Online Business Idea #3 – Start Small
You may have multiple dollar signs flashing through your mind, but I challenge you to think realistically. You can start an online business with only a small investment. You can own a domain name for $15 a year. You can pay $50 a year to host your site and another $20 to employ an autoresponder. It is a good idea to start small and grow into your business. Think of it as a snowball rolling downhill.
So if you have an idea, start today! Take these online business ideas and begin to market your products. You will find yourself headed to more financial freedom.
