  • The advantage of online business is that you can set up a lot of things very quickly, within a few hours, if you know the system. this allows you to know very quickly if an idea works.
  • If you test it and it gets a good response you can move forward investing more and advertising to generate further business.
  • In business, you have to be prepared for things to go wrong and be prepared to fail, learning from the mistakes and moving forward towards success.
  • When you are building an online business building an email database is key, even if you lose your platform your database is the way your business can continue.

  • You must run your business the right way -  treating others as you would want to be treated.
  • More and more companies are going to move online so the importance and cost of advertising can only rise.
