Starting an online business is absolutely do-able for anyone who is willing to put in the effort and learn the ropes. Just like any other business, it takes time and hard work.You have to educate yourself and be teachable. Honestly, that's all it takes.
I started online with absolutely no idea what I was doing. I started an eBay store, then I moved on to my own online shop. I had no education internet marketing or in building an online business. I was flying by the seat of my pants trying to be everything to everyone and I couldn't.
The one thing I had going for me was determination. I was bound and determined to carve out a niche for myself on the internet. More than anything I wanted to work from home on my computer and the time freedom that would give me.
Luckily, I realized I needed help. I started looking around for others who had success online and could teach me the ropes. That's when all the pieces to the puzzle started to fit.
You need to be selective and look for teachers your resonate with before you start spending money for training. And you will have to spend a little money learning how this all works. Don't buy everything you see and don't buy the highest priced coaching and courses you can find. Start small. Buy a lesser priced course and see if it is of value. Did you learn how to do something new? Was it easy to follow? Did you resonate with the teacher?
I have to admit that I surprised myself when I started my online education. I never actually expected to enjoy the learning process as much as I did. Heck, I didn't really expect to enjoy it at all. But I have loved every minute of it! Learning to build an online business is a fascinating journey. I've learned to conquer those simple technology tigers that used to bite me in the butt. I can install and build a WordPress blog, shoot video, create products, do article marketing, build a list, host teleseminars and webinars and everything in between!
This brings me back to my original question. You can't just start a business on the Internet with no experience, or can you? The answer? OH YES YOU CAN! All it takes is determination and to be willing to learn what you don't know.
