Why 97% of Online Entrepreneurs Do Not Earn a Profit

I want to talk about one of the main reasons why 97% of online entrepreneurs never make a profit. That is right only 3% of online marketers actually earn a profit. The problem is unrealistic expectations that cause people to quit much too soon.

The reason that online marketers are not profitable is unrealistic expectations. Many people do not look at online marketing as a business, they look at it as a way to get rich quick and approach it as a hobby. I like to quote Chris Widener, a well known Author and Speaker, "most online marketers have there short term expectations set too high, and long term expectations too low." This is the best way I have ever heard it said.

We all come into this business seeing videos and reading testimonials of how much income so many others are making and from that, we assume the online marketing business is easy. Well it is easy, compared to whatever you are doing now as a job, but you must approach it as a business. If you do and you stick with it, the reward will be tremendous. The people in those videos may have done it in two months or two years, the point is if it takes you longer but you still get there are you a failure. No, you cannot fail unless you quit.

I am going to give you a number that should a long-term commitment easier. Statistically on average online marketers that have been consistently doing it for 5 years, earn $80,000 a month. Is that worth a five-year commitment, of course it is?

To be a successful online marketer you need to do four things...

1.Make a long-term commitment 2.Take Action toward your goal consistently on a daily basis 3.Be Accountable (honest with yourself or someone to hold you accountable) 4.Above all DO NOT QUIT

If you are serious and motivated and you can do these four things, then you have what it takes to be one of the 3%. If you want more information about an online opportunity and to join our team of six and seven figure earners, go to the website in the bio. I hope this article was helpful and I wish you the greatest success in your business.
