There are many lessons from my childhood which have served me well through my life,
 but none better than being willing to learn new things, embrace change, and roll up my sleeves
 for some good old fashioned hard work.

Hi, my name is Robert Hathhorn.
My first online 'opportunity' involved buying leads and placing classified ads, and I learned very
quickly that this was a dead end street. The most important lesson from that experience was that the most successful people online know how to generate their own high quality leads.
I could see that with the right education, it was possible to build a business on the Internet and the possibilities for growth were huge.
So I went looking for a way to learn how to market professionally online. The focus was on improving skills and delivering quality and value. And my lifetime of experience in business told me that this was the only way I wanted to build an enterprise of my own online.
It is a new frontier that is growing by the minute, but I know that to be successful online, you have to roll up your sleeves and learn the skills to attract the attention of prospective customers and business partners.
If you also find yourself looking online for ways to build a business of your own, and take control of your finances and your life, take this lesson from me...
Do your due diligence, ask all the hard questions and above all else, make sure you are entering in to an opportunity where you will be taught how to market on the Internet in a professional way. Online business is not so different to offline; it is all about the value and honesty you bring to your market.
As a top leader in Internet Marketing and a kind compassionate person, Robert provides advice, training, and support to individuals looking to build a Home Based Business. He provides his clients with a proven Home Based Business model. He is an expert in Social Networking Web 2.0 Marketing on Twitter, Facebook, Linkedin, and Youtube. He is currently looking for serious entrepreneurs who want to start their own Home Based Business and want to be personally mentored to achieve success. He helps his clients with their Home Based Business and provides them with all the tools and training to be successful online. He can personally mentor those who want to join the top 3% of people who earn a massive income from an online Home Based Business.

Re: Newbi here Re: Newbi here - Again. thank you. Well I am interested to become a home based entrepreneur.

Thanks Michelle
How can I start home-based business? How can I start home-based business? - I am not sure what you mean by home-based and how my story can help but my home-based business is my web design business. I can work from home and go out to meet my clients. These times (When I'm out) is the most 'dangerous', because if clients need some files or if something didn't get through email, I'll need to find the nearest internet hot spot (i bring my external hard drive everywhere) to service the client or come up with an excuse. initially it was difficult, working from home and starting up. work was scarce but I knew it was only in the beginning. after 5 months, I have quite a constant flow of work but still the cheques are not that regular but its getting there. I met other people who has started home-based business and they range from travel agents to company secretaries. hope that helps
Re: Balancing Your Man & Business Re: Balancing Your Man & Business - One issue is the same women face with little kids, if they run home based businesses. If you work out of your home, your man, or your kids, think you don't really work, and its okay to interrupt because it's "only them." But it actually is a major distraction to try to be doing some creative work and having your family coming at you all the time. Boundaries for home workers need to be set, and no guilting them out of it!
Home Based Business Home Based Business - There are many types of businesses you can run from home. First, you need to evaluate your strengths and weaknesses. What experience do you have that could be used in a business? Its also good to evaluate if you're the kind of person who can work for yourself. Not everyone should work for themselves and I know some who won't thrive because they aren't that kind of person. Not being mean, just realistic about some basic business info. I run my home improvement business from an office in my home. Its convenient and I save on outside office rent expenses. Chris
Re: Best way to start a business? Re: Best way to start a business? - Hi Rob Welcome to the forum, nice to see you in here. I agree that many people have started franchises without prior business knowledge, but if one listens to what Robert Kiyosaki says in one of his interviews where he is discussing franchise and MLM types of businesses. He says that for anyone joining these types of business their first priority is to learn what the franchise or MLM company can teach them. This will give them a solid start of business knowledge which can then be used in starting their own businesses from scratch. MichelleJ
