Marketing - Starting a home-based internet business


Expert: Kip Gienau - 4/4/2004

Question
I would like to start a home-based internet business and need your advice on the best products or services to venture into.  I would also like to know how I can develop and use my creative thinking ability.

Answer
Hi Garth!
If you are planning on starting a business you first must select something you are good at and have a natural passion for. There are thousands of online businesses a person can start but most of them just cost you money and make the seller rich. The best way to make money on the internet is to offer an unusual service or an information based service, people will buy expert information. You must choose very carefully or it could cost you a bundle of cash, don't be lured by claims of making millions on the internet, do research on the products, customers and see what other business owners have to say about the products. As for the creative ability I feel it's something a person needs to possess and trainning will only improve one's ability. Pratice brainstorming, solve others problems, ask questions about everything always say what if then find a suitable solution. Read books listen to creativity tapes and once you start to develop this ability how it will be used will emerge, best of luck.
Kip
