In fact, it doesn't take that much for you to begin making money on the Internet. And, if you will simply commit yourself to following a few simple rules, you too can become an Internet Millionaire!
Here is what you need to know to begin to build your business on the Internet.
1) Sell Something You Are Passionate About
Every single person that I have ever met who had created massive success in their lives was passionate about what they sold. They loved their products. They cherished them, and they shared their passion with their clients and sold millions of dollars of their products and services!
What are you passionate about? What keeps you up late at night and gets you out of bed long before your alarm clock goes off?
Take time to discover your passion. It will mean the difference between a mediocre life and a life full of passion! You CAN build a business with ANY product or service you have to pay money to obtain.
Think about the "Pet Rock." You can sell anything and make a fortune! And you can build a business based on a brand new, never before seen product, although that may require a little more time and effort.

2) Uncover Who Shares a Passion For Your Products
To be a success, you must offer your product to those people who share a passion for what you offer. WHO are these people? And most importantly, WHERE are these people?
What publications do they read? What web sites do they visit? What companies already do business with them? Who's client list can you leverage to reach these people at the lowest possible cost?
The secret of success on the Internet is to know who wants what you have and to know how to reach them at the lowest possible cost.
3) Create an Irresistible Offer
Let's face it, you and I buy when we are presented with the right offer... especially when what is being offered is something that we really want! Your success is going to be based on your ability to create offers that make people respond. The more irresistible the offer, the more you will sell.
Remember, price is only one reason why people will buy from you, so just having the lowest price is not always going to win you more business. You've got to think outside the box. Come up with offers that include more than just the main product or service offering. Now is the time for you to be creative, to use your
imagination and to create an offer that is dozens of times more valuable to the buyer than anything else that they can get anywhere else.
4) Let Them Know What You've Got!
Once you've got the product that your passionate about, you've discovered who else shares your passion, you know how to reach them, and you've created an irresistible offer to go along with it, now you've got to get the word out! Use newsletters, magazines, newspapers, e-mail (not unsolicited, however) use
anything you have access to let as many people as possible know what you've got!
If you're really creative, it's a good bet that the media will pick up on your offer and you can end up with tens of thousands of dollars of free promotions.
5) Test and Refine Your Offer
Once you let enough people know about what you have, take a look at how many people saw your offer and then how many of those people actually bought what you offered. If you like the numbers, keep going. Buy more advertising, tell more of the media, and keep on selling!
If, on the other hand, you were not entirely satisfied with the numbers, re-work your offer and then double-check your market and how you are reaching out to them. It could very well be that you have the right offer but are simply not reaching the right audience. Try a different market with the same offer, or try a new offer with the same market. It may take you a few tries to get it right, but it's well worth the effort! And I promise you that you will be happy with the results!
6) Deliver on Your Promises Promptly
Don't you just love to get the product or service that you ordered quickly, or at least know that it has been shipped promptly? Most of us do. When we buy, we are excited and can't wait to get the benefits of what we just purchased.
Your customers are no different. They want to know when they place an order with you that you will do your best to get them what they want as soon as possible. We all have stories of companies that took weeks to ship our order and we all know we won't be doing business with them again anytime soon, no matter how good the offer may have been.
When the order reaches you, get in the habit of making it a priority to get it invoiced, packed and shipped. You'll create a very loyal client base that will buy from you again and again if you do what you say you will do in a prompt and courteous manner.
Your Success is Up to You!
It's not hard to build a successful business, whether you do it from your kitchen table, the basement, the garage, or an office space, you can be very successful if you follow a few simple rules.
I have helped thousands of people build successful businesses on the Internet and I know what it takes to really make a business profitable. It's actually quite simple; give the customer more than you promise in less time than you promise. In other words, "under promise and over deliver."
Just look at any company you consider a success and I'm sure you will find they follow these simple rules.
