There is so much to learn about owning and operating a profitable internet-based business. We get excited about the possibilities but don't know where to start.

I created a short, sharp checklist that will cut through the clutter and get you moving in the right direction. At the very least, it will give you a game plan.

In this podcast, you'll discover the seven must-haves for an online business. 

1. Business License (Check your local city and state)
2. Business Insurance (Check online and compare. Example: Hiscox) 
3. Choose an Email Service Provider (My personal favorite, Active Campaign) 
4. Build Your Website (Create an Online Presence) 
   • Dan at BizSites
   • The 5 Building Blocks to a Winning HomePage 
   • Write a Killer "About" Page and Engage Your Audience
   • How to Craft a Work-with-Me Page That Speaks Directly to Your Prospects 
5. Understand the Art of Copywriting
   • Episode #13: The Difference Between Marketing & Sales 
   • How to Write Copy that Sells by Ray Edwards
6. Graphic Design (Outsource or use Canva Pro) 
7. Create a Free Offer (Lead Magnet)
