I suppose I should have titled this “HOW I CHOSE MY HOME BASED BUSINESS”, but that was just too long.

In looking for an internet business, I have some basic, required elements. I wanted to find a business that involved four things I loved most: staying at home, using my computer, using the inter-net and learning something new. The fact that I could make money involving these requirements made it even more enticing. With these requirements in mind, I started looking? A search of the Internet revealed hundreds of businesses meeting the first three requirements, but their meeting the fourth was questionable. Being a retired liberal arts educator, I know nothing about business; therefore learning something about business was desired objective!

I also had two other requirements. I did not want to have to personally sell something---meaning I did not want to contact people in person to ask them to buy something. I am an educator, not a sales person. I absolutely could not ask someone to buy something from me. The second requirement was that I not have to buy or carry inventory!

I did find one that I thought met all of my requirements, and I paid the hefty sign-up fee. This business did meet the first three requirements very well. The fourth---not so well. I learned some things, but not the right things. The superb coaching I was promised was not there. They did not call me as promised. Not only that, they did not respond to my emails or calls. The inter-net classes were poorly executed. Even so, I did learn some things. I learned that there were other things to consider when choosing an inter-net business!

Because I had no experience in building a website, I found that I needed one ready made for my use. If you have to build your own and lack the experience to do so, your profit does not start until you get the site up and running. This was not provided in the business I bought into. They did provide some inadequate instruction in building a website.

An inter-net business needs a variety of attractions to bring people to your website. Sure, it is important to sell the business. But you need something to bring many people to your website; people who may not think they want a business. They may be attracted to the website for shopping and when they get there, they may find themselves attracted to the business itself.

Finally, there are many home-based business out there. We have to learn the skill of media placement, advertising, if we are to be successful!

The business I bought into included none of this! As a result, I got absolutely nowhere.
