Why Should you Start an Online Business?

See the five reasons below

Low Startup Capital: Unlike running a traditional business that you need to sort-out money to rent a shop space, you do not need to have a physical store or physical outlet to showcase your inventory. So, in this way, you save a lot of startup capital. See: How to Make Money Online Without Any Investment with a FREE Blog
Always Open for Business: For example, if you have a website and its 24/7 ready to accept payment, anyone can pay you anytime anywhere in the world
Work Anywhere you want: For me, sometimes I work in café, sometimes I work from home. So it’s up to you and you have the flexibility to work anywhere you want. With online business, you can sit at home and become rich.
Access to Global Market: You have access to global market instead of just a local market. As for me, most of my student for my online course comes from the countries that are outside of Singapore where I live in. So, to go to tap on the global market that have a very huge potential
Cost Saving: As compared to year ago when I have a physical classroom to conduct my class, now I conduct my class online, so I save the rental, I save the logistics, I save the transportation cost. SO, there are lots of costs that you can save if you decided to run an online business

Five Types of Online Business you can start

In this section, I am going to share with you 5 different types of online businesses that you can consider to start in the future.

Selling Physical Products: The most type of online business is selling physical products. For example, if you manufacture, you design, or you create handicraft, you can then sell these physical products through a website. So you can setup a shopping or eCommerce website and you can put all your items online and when people come to your website, they can just payment. After you receive the payment, you can send them the product9s) that they have ordered. The disadvantages of selling physical products are that you have created your own products or buy these physical products from somewhere else before you can ship it to your customers.
Selling Digital Products: What I mean by digital product are products like eBooks, online videos, audios or software. These are products that are not tangible. When people purchase it, they will receive link to download. So you don’t need to package and ship them out to your customers address. The advantage of this business model is that you do not need to create a physical product and ship them out to people who ordered for them. This business has low maintenance as compared to selling physical products.
Selling Services Online: There is a website called Fiverr.com where you can find a lot of people offering their services to you for a small fee. For certain services, only $5 will do. So, If you do services like logo design, drawing of graphics, writing of articles, online marketing, video animation, and programming. You can offer these types of services online through this very popular platform called Fiverr. Simple go to Fiverr and list your services.
Selling Other People’s Products or Services: This is a very common type of online business. Here instead of selling your products or service, you are selling other people’s products or services. This is commonly called affiliate marketing. How is works is that, if I am an affiliate, I don’t need to have my own products, I don’t need to provide my own services, All I need is to go online and search for other peoples products or services and become their affiliate to promote their product. Take for example, if you go to Amazon, you can see that amazon offer a program called Amazon Associates. If you join the associate program, you will get affiliate link from Amazon. So, then you can to promote any Amazon product. You can send your affiliate links to your friends and it your friends click on your affiliate links and go to Amazon and purchase any product from Amazon, you earn a commission of the sales. That’s how it works. The grate advantage of affiliate marketing is that you do not need to have any of your own product or services. All you need to do is to join an affiliate program and you are good to go. Make sure that affiliate program have a lot of good products for you to promote.
Selling Advertising Space: If you have a popular website, a blog or you have a popular newsletter, you sell an advertisement space to companies or to small businesses to help them to advertise their products or services. Of course, the disadvantage of this is that for many beginners who do not have a popular website or a popular newsletter, this will take a lot of time to build it up.

How Much Money Do you need to start an Online Business?

Let’s breakdown the financial requirements

Bluehost ($10 per year)
Bluehost ( $0.99 for first year with free domain name)

In order to have an online business, you will need to have a website or a blog. In order to have a website, you need two (2) things. You need a domain name and you need hosting. A domain name means the url that people have to key-in to find your website. For example my domain name is Jambadmission.com.ng and that is the url I have registered. To register a domain name, it cost about $10 or less per year.

Web Development:

Now that you know the price for domain name and hosting, the next thing is the web design. There are two ways to create your website.

You can learn and do it yourself, which is not that difficult especially with the introduction of WordPress. You can use WordPress to create website without learning programming.
You can ask someone to do it for you. So depending on your category or your criteria, it may cost from $500 to $5,000 depending on your requirement.
Product Development: If you are selling a physical product, you have to calculate how much the cost to manufacture the product is. If you buy the product from somewhere and resell it at a higher price, then you need to find out the price that you will pay for the product that you are selling. It’s more costly if selling a physical product. For affiliate marketing, there is no product development fee involved. So if you are starting an online business based on affiliate marketing, then you do not need to budget for the product development fee
Email Service Provider : Many people have not included this into their startup cost. These email service provider is a software that help you maintain communication with your subscribers, or your customers no matter how large is your customer base. For example if you have 50,000 customers, autoresponder can help you to maintain communication though email with these clients. There are many autoresponders you can use. Most popular one is GetResponse, I pay about $20-$30 per month to have GetResnponse auto-responder services. Getresponse is good because you can send bulk emails at once. If you are using your gmail, yahoo or Hotmail, you will not be allowed to many emails in one time. That’s why you need email service provider so that you can mass send emails to your customers whenever you have offers, promotions, and you can nurture your subscribers in the list using the outoresponse feature.

Most Important Thing you must know – Build a List

There are few important things you should know before you start an online business. That’s what I am going to share with you in this section.
The concept is called the least nurturing process. Before I continue, I will want to remind you that most of the visitor that will come to your website for the first time will not buy things from you.
This is law of eCommerce and you can’t alter this law. So, you will have to accept it. Most people that come to our website will not buy things from us for the first time which is okay.
The problem is, a lot of people nowadays, when they start an online business, they don’t see this and they thought that most people that will come to their website will buy things from them.
This is where the problem lies. The truth is, when people come to your website, they are just visitors and the number one thing is not to make them buy immediately but to convert them to subscribers by giving you their name and email address.
For example, if you run an eCommerce store, you may decide give aware $10 discount voucher to entice your visitors to subscribe to your mailing list. People may subscribe to your mailing list but they may not buy from your website immediately.
After they subscribe to your email list, then you can schedule to send them educational emails, you can send them monthly newsletters, you can send them tips about your products or services. From these educational emails, you will slowly convert your subscribers to customers when the time comes when you have promotion or new products.
You can send it to them and when they see that it’s something that they need and it’s offered at a reduced price, they will buy your product of services. The whole process is called a “conversion funnel”.
Always have a mechanism on your website that can capture names and emails of your visitors in exchange of something useful that you can send to them. This is very important concept that you can understand.
No matter what type of online business that you run, capturing your visitors name and email is very essential and a critical point of an online success. In the next section, we are going to look at different categories of online business.
Buy a Bluehost, install WordPress and a Free or Premium WordPress them.
