So you want to make money online? But how do you get started when you have little to no money? Just because you want to pursue an idea, you still have bills and other obligations to take care of, not to mention to cost associated with maintaining and growing a business.
While building a business online doesn?t require the type of start up cost a traditional business would, you?ll need to know how to get things moving in the right direction quickly so you can start generating income.
Here are 5 ways to begin making money online, plus a few tips on how to create a profitable business out of nothing. The best place is not the most sexy but it will get you in the door and generating some income so you can expand your online business:
1. Freelancing
Do a simple google search for terms like ?freelancing?or ?freelancing jobs? and you will come across a number of freelance opportunities.
Start browsing the freelance job boards, get signed up and complete your profile.
Things you should know before you get started:
- Your business name and online contact information
- A brief yet concise description of your business and the services you offer
- Create a well-rounded portfolio if applicable or a detailed description of your skills
You should always be able to explain exactly what you offer and what makes you unique or qualified.
What services should you offer?
I am sure there are plenty of things you know how to do that others do not. Think about skills acquired in school, special training or certification, hobbies, and work that can be help a client fill a specific need. The key is to make sure you convey your expertise so people who come across your profile are comfortable and know you are competent and capable of completing the task at hand.
Where should you offer you services?
Apply any and everywhere. You can start with sites such as freelancer, fiverr.com, elance, and odesk. Until you have a money making business of your own this is your job so aim to build up your client base, make customers happy and generating the income you need to invest in the online business of your dreams.
2. Selling Information
This is similar to freelancing but the focus in on training others how to accomplish something. The Internet is filled with a plethora of information and people are willing to pay good money to obtain that knowledge. If you have skills and knowledge that others will pay for, why would you think they wouldn?t pay YOU for it.
What Information Can You Sell?
You can sell anything on the Internet. There are always going to be people out there that know less than you and are willing to pay to learn. Your job is to find those people and set up a learning environment that allows you to transfer than information. You can do one-on-one trainings, group trainings, you can sell ebooks and video products. All of this can be done with little to no funds.
The great thing about information is that you will always have it, and you can resell the same information that is in your brain over and over and over again investing no more than your time.
Do you know how to create websites, design Facebook pages, generate traffic on youtube, write a book?
Use that knowledge, package it up, promote it and sell it!
3. Friends and Family
I know, I know. It can be difficult asking friends and family to support YOUR dream when many times they don?t believe in or even understand what it is you are trying to accomplish. But, if you do have supportive friends and family that are willing to help jumpstart your online business, why not share with them your vision.
The important thing is to show them you are serious, your passionate and taking on this venture not as some hobby but as a real, legitimate business with significant income potential. Talk about your work, help them to understand your level of commitment and dedication. This way they will feel more comfortable in investing in you.
If they know you are in this to win it, they will be more likely to help out!
4. Getting a Job
Oh my GOSH!!! That is the last thing you wanted to hear right. You?re an entrepreneur not an employee. The whole reason you want to start your own business on the Internet is to not have a 9 -5.
But hey, when your options are limited it is going to come down to how bad, and how fast do you want to get your business moving. So you just might have to suck it up and get to work if money is not flowing as easily as you wished.
Look, minimum wage is more than zero wage. So get out there, do something and flip that paycheck into ads, leads, product creation, an online marketing system. Whatever you do, spend your money wisely and you?ll see a much greater return. Before you know it you?ll be saying Adi?s to that lame job and hello to the online business you always wanted.
5. Leverage Connections
One of the biggest money making opportunities for me came from meeting the right person at the right time. All it took was a chance encounter, my ability to articulate what I was good at, and I was asked to become a partner in a social media network startup. You may be just one connection, one introduction away from an opportunity that can bankroll your ultimate dream.
The bottom line is that you have to get out there and connect with people whether it be offline or online. Let people get to know you, what you do, what you are good at, and what you want to accomplish. Most people genuinely what to see others succeed and are willing to support, share and refer when they know you are sincere.? The more people who know you, the better chance you have of being connected to someone who needs your services or expertise.
Cultivating connections equals cash. So don?t be afraid to make new friends, meet new people and show up at local events.
Bonus Tip: Have A Plan
I am always talking about having a plan or success map. Write down your goals, your mission, necessary resources, and how much money you need ? not only to build a business but to pay your bills and live. Know your priorities and what action steps you need to take on a daily basis to ensure you are always moving in the right direction. When you map out a plan your success rate skyrockets. Starting a business of any kind is not a guaranteed thing, so you need to be as prepared as possible so you are in the best position possible to achieve your ultimate goal ? making money online!!
