Building Better Teams Through Executive Coaching
© 2003 From the dawn of publicly held corporations, CEOs and upper-management executives have been placed on a pedestal. Too high to touch, too strong to falter, too knowledgeable to need help. Unfortunately, this stereotype perpetuated for far too...

BUILD IT AND THEY WILL COME
BUILD IT AND THEY WILL COME
"I'll just wait until all of the kids are in school."
"No way can I try anything new with the
overtime they're throwing at me."
"I don't have the skills to start my own
business."
"I'm just not computer-oriented. I use mine only for email."
"Nobody really makes money working on
the Internet."
‘Most of the so-called work-at-home
‘opportunities' are really ‘ripoffs.'"
I've heard them all... even used some myself at first.
No one is saying that you simply plug into the Internet and become rich. Nothing worthwhile comes easy. All
successful ventures involve some effort. An Internet business is no exception. However, the effort must be
accompanied by dedication and "staying power."
"Build it and they will come," from the movie, Field of Dreams, has significance in the world of Internet
businesses. Building a provocative and interactive web site is the foundation of the Internet venture. Once done, there are many ways to attract interested people to your site.
We all have been warned at one time or another by people in businesses of all types that "The first year is the
hardest." For some, it does not take that long to realize their first clear profit. Personally, I received a check - albeit small - after two months. Recently, a fellow Internet
business owner informed me that he has started receiving $200 each month after seven months of effort - and his
business is growing steadily. Another, after several years, is now earning $30,000 each month. Much depends on the time and effort that is put into the business.
Then you hear the skeptics say, "Don't quit your day
job.!" Actually, unless you have the seed money to stay at
home and start your business, your new venture can get off the ground with only ten hours a week of your time. Thus, "keeping your day job" is not a barrier, but a resource as you build the business that will take you away from that daily grind forever.
Finally, "Every journey starts with a single step." Putting off that "first step" using one or more of the
"reasons" listed at the beginning of this article - and some even more creative ones - one day will find you looking around you at the Internet business successes and wondering why you put it off for so long.
You know... come to think of it... I could have saved a lot of time here. The basic message in this article
could have been stated in four simple words:
IT'S UP TO YOU!
Why not let me show you how to "grease the wheels" and get started on a path that will lead you to the dream that all of us have and few of us achieve - financial independence.
LET ME HEAR FROM YOU!
