Five Obstacles To Achieving Success In Internet Business
A lot has been said and written about the obstacles to achieving all round success in Internet Business Marketing, but this article is going to submit an additional five obstacles to the ones that have already been preferred by other authors.
A. Get Rich Quickly Syndrome
The major obstacle is the mad rush to get rich quickly without recourse to patience. Whatever business you find yourself in will require hard work, capital and patience. No matter the promises made by an Internet venture, one will still need to come on board with capital and time to invest. But most people believe that money is there ready to be collected with ease.
This is wrong! Internet Business is something that needs enough time and efforts to set in motion and once it starts nobody can stop it! Rome they say was not built in a day.
B. Inadequate Experience
Another obstacle is that most Internet businessmen and women do not have the requisite experience to successfully run an Internet business. The experience they say is the best teacher. Your ability to use a computer/laptop and browse the internet do not necessarily make you a guru in internet business.
Regardless of internet business experience, you may have possessed before venturing into it, you still need to do a lot of research on the business and carry out extensive planning. Above all, you need to be mentored by an expert in internet business to succeed in this business.
C. Inadequate Working Materials
No reasonable person goes to the farm without the needed work tools like Hoe, shovel etc to work when you get there. This is one of the obstacles to achieving success in an internet business because a lot of people enter into the business without the necessary tools. A would-be internet businessman or woman needs to equip himself or herself with a very good computer/laptop, internet connection and electricity supply. In the case of developing countries like Nigeria where the supply of electricity is epileptic, you need a good electricity generating set as a back-up in case of power failure. So these working tools are very critical to achieving success in internet business.
D. Information Overload
The Internet is the cheapest source of information and because of this, people send different kinds of information to your mail about internet businesses. The volume of information sent is so much that you may become confused and frustrated even to the point of abandoning genuine ones that would have been of help to you. The best way to get quality information that would be relevant to you is to search reputable and well-tested Forums relevant to your line of business instead of going through heaps of irrelevant information.
E. Prevalence of Fraudulent Internet People
The Internet is a breeding ground for Internet Fraudsters of different sizes and shapes. These people have succeeded in duping a lot of people out of their hard-earned living, thereby frustrating them out of an internet business. The best approach to solving this problem is to stop believing everything you are told on the internet. In fact, scepticism should be your watchword. Seek expert advice from mentors on internet issues and above all run away from people that promise to make a multi-millionaire overnight, they are fraudulent people.
So as stated in the opening paragraph, a lot had already been said and written about this topic and this one is an additional five obstacles to achieving success in internet business that has not been said or written before.
But don't get all negative... there will be plenty of time for that later! :-)
