Article Overview: A kid at a candy store wants a piece of everything. It all looks so good in the eyes of a child so they have to have one of each.

New Online Business Entrepreneur are like Kids at a Candy Store!

A kid at a candy store wants a piece of everything. It all looks so good in the eyes of a child so they have to have one of each. Why is it that a new online business entrepreneur acts the same way with internet marketing? Is it because of the internet and all the information readily available for us to have? Is it because we are so gung ho at first we have to have it now and don't have the patience to wait? Or is it that we feel that we have to be such great student to become successful?

See, the problem with this is if you try to learn so much in a short amount of time, you will suffer of what I call "Brain info overload". Learning new things is great but learning too many topics too fast can actually be harmful. So when you start your online business, knowing how to priorities will be your biggest challenge.

So let's analyze this. If your mentor of your new online business tells you that in order to be successful, you must read these 5 books, then watch these 5 webinars and be on these 2 conference calls and I will call you in 2 days to answer any questions, what happens to you? Just how much do you think you will retain? The answer is may be 30%-40% and you will not be an expert in any of the subjects you will have learned about.

Most successful entrepreneur were not built overnight. In fact, it usually takes 6 months to a year for most to see major success. So let's take a different angle. Let's establish a timeline that is more reasonable. Let's start with the 1^st book, let's read it in the first week and let's use the next 2 weeks to become familiar with the training and put in place what we learned. Let's do this with each books, webinars and conference calls. 6 months from now, you will have completed all the training and you will be good in each facets of your business and you will have an online business that is growing and making money.

This is precisely what I teach my new community members. Learning one online marketing technique at the time, become good at it and then move on to the next one and do the same all over again while maintaining the previous one. Building any business is a marathon, not a sprint; you must use intelligent patience in order to be successful.

In time, these are the results you will get. You will become an expert in a particular subject without a "Brain info overload". You will be able to execute said subject and watch it generate results. And after some time, you will be able to teach others what you have learned so they can become successful themselves. When all of this is in place, you will be the making money that you wished for from your networking business.

Now of course, there are many other factors that will decide if you are going to be successful or not. Choosing the right business that has the right training, marketing, products and support is another key to your success. Finding a great mentor that will be there for you is another one but the most important one is YOU. Just how motivated are you? What is it in your life that makes you want change? Is your goal strong enough to inspire you to invest the time and effort to be successful? You must be able to answer these questions to know if you are ready or not.

Last is taking action. Too many people just stand on the sidelines and watch other people get rich. If you do the same thing over and over the same way and you expect a different result, according to Einstein, you are insane. Do something different, gamble on your success instead of watching others as you walk past the people in 1^st class.

Keep striving towards your financial freedom. Sincerely, Ghyslain

Re: Exotic Tea Shop Website for Review - Hi David, - Background is nice and fitting, but I don't like the header. The title completely blends in with the background? - About Us shouldn't be second from the left on the navigation bar. People read from left to right. The commercial intent is to buy, the online store should probably be second. - Online Tea Store... too many choices without supplementary information. No description of product choice. oz and pricing should be stylized separately from the name of the product. - Online Tea Store.... Visuals is definitely very important in raising commercial intent. Someone who comes to the site through SEO is searching for exotic teas and not particulars. Meaning they're browsing. Text is not enough for a browsing shopper. - World of Tea... the information can be organized a bit better. Again, visuals. Some of this info belongs to online tea store. I'm not too sure on the name. - Tea & Treasure... not sure on this name either... mainly because you have "World of Tea" next to it. Navigation should be transparent in conveying information to the users. Why not call it "Find Us" or "Visit Us"? - Email newseletter.... "occasional updates" containing what exactly? Again, my humble opinion. Hope you find it useful!

Re: iPhone Apps: Biz Idea! - San Diego, California – Got an idea for a killer iPhone app? With more than 1 billion applications sold since its launch last July, Apple’s iPhone App Store has become one of the fastest-growing tech enterprises in recent history, and gained a reputation as something of a developer’s goldmine. Success stories such as that of Ethan Nicholas, whose iShoot app has earned him $900,000 in eight months, have only added to the App Store’s appeal for would-be iPhone entrepreneurs. “The runaway success of the App Store has created the legend of the iPhone millionaire,” says Ian Maskell, principal of iPhone App Freelancer, a company aiming to make it possible to get your idea into the App Store without technical knowledge and minimal financial outlay. “Everywhere we went people would say: ‘I’ve got a great idea for an app.’ We saw an opportunity to level the playing field and allow anyone the ability to become the next success story, regardless of their ability to program or write code.” So Maskell launched iPhone App Freelancer, a website offering the ability to turn great ideas into apps with little or no programming knowledge. Rob Shoesmith, a 27-year-old garbage collector from Coventry – England, submitted one of the first ideas to iPhone App Freelancer for development. Shoesmith says he has only had an iPhone for a few months, but has been following the growth of the App Store since its launch. He wants to keep the specifics of his app under wraps until its launch, but describes it as a user-generated advice service.
