Starting and building an Internet business is not an easy task.
There is the never-ending learning about promotion, marketing,
website design and building, technical problems, HTML, cgi,
java; the list goes on and on. There are a few things you should
think about when you are planning your online business. These
three things are some of the most basic yet most important
aspects that could make your business a success!

These are Perseverance, Passion and People!

**Perseverance - Building a successful online business can take
months or even years. Examine your goals and your life.

Will you have what it takes to not give up when things are going
bad?

Do you have the determination to work this business for weeks or
months without making any money?

Do you want to give up most of the small amount of spare time
that you now have?

Go over these questions in your mind and see what you come up
with. Despite all the "get rich quick" ads you see, this most
likely will not happen. Most people will not even get rich
...
... lowly, however, you can make a good income.

You might start making a small amount of money in a few weeks or
months, then you might not make any for a few months. You must
not let yourself give up, when business is not all it's cracked
up to be! You must have Perseverance!

**Passion - When you are choosing your business, build your
business around something that interests you, something that you
are passionate about. This will help you keep going when things
get tough.

Will I want to work with this business everyday?

Does this business interest me enough to keep my determination
going?

Will my passion override any doubts that I will have about
becoming successful?

Ask yourself these questions and see what the answers are. You
cannot build a successful business around something you have no
passion or knowledge about. If you are nuts about horses, build
your business around horses, not cats! You must have Passion!

**People - When you are working an online business, you have to
get involved with people. It may not be face to face, but you
will have to deal with people from all over the world, everyday.
Treat everyone with respect and answer all questions in a timely
and courteous manner. You must also be able to deal with rude
people. Treat these people with respect also. Be firm, but
courteous. Rarely have I had to deal with this problem, but it
does come up.

Do I want to have to deal with all those people on a day-to-day
basis?

Can I handle all the different situations that can arise when
dealing with people?

Can I accept the fact that I cannot please everyone and be able
to handle the rejection?

You do not necessarily have to be "the life of the party" but
you must be able to handle the problems that working with all
kinds of people can bring. You must be able to deal with people!

I must tell you that I have made so many friends since starting
Web Success. It is one of the most enjoyable aspects of Internet
marketing. Web Success is the second business that I started on
the Internet. With the first business, I did not take the three
P's into consideration and it failed within a year.

When I planned out Web Success, I really thought about what I
wanted to do and how I wanted to do it. Because of that planning
I have learned a few things about myself.

I have learned that I have more perseverance than I thought
possible.

I have learned that I have a passion for helping people get
started with their business and that I am good at it.

I have learned that working with people all over the world has
been a thoroughly enjoyable, rewarding and interesting
experience.
