Chapter 1: Reassess your Readiness and Mindset. In building your online business, you don t need a high start-up capital, compared to a physical business, that needs a space in a favorable location, office tools, sales staffs, inventories and deliveries. But if you choose to have an extensive digital business, you need to invest and when properly done, the ROI is attained faster compared to offline businesses. Now, if you want to start small, investment is also small. You can start through self-study and research, depending on your technical skills and resources and your capacity to learn independently. But before anything else, you should reassess yourself (as mentioned in the ebook.) if you have already developed these strategies before you start your online business. Having said this, you also need time management and patience to get things done. Mindset and Readiness strategies are important as you are trained to be learning in a virtual environment. Other things you should know: 1). To formulate your own learning strategies, whether you need the basic or more advanced approaches depending on the prior knowledge you have about 2
computer technology. Your online mentor and lessons provided can readily adjust to these approaches. 2). Consider getting an ecourse in case you decide to have a higher and more extensive learning. In an ecourse, every process will be taught in detailed through online support and modular approach. The teaching-learning style is simplified that could fit to every student s need even with little or zero knowledge about digital business. Based on my experience, you need to build your patience, time management and motivation to finish your task. 3). Increase your level of understanding and choosing your future niche. 4). Seek advice when acquiring tools and apps for your website. Chapter 2: List of Suggested Online Business Opportunities In modern times where almost everything is electronic, most physical businesses are trying to adopt changes like going paperless in plane or movie tickets, online banking and enrolment in schools, teaching tools from blackboard to computer-based instructions, online groceries and shopping at Lazada, OLX and Amazon, just to name a few. 3
With the power of the Internet, mobile phones and computers, we are now living in a fast-paced world and so with our acquisition of goals. If one of your goals right now is to start an online business, here s a partial list of opportunities that you can choose from. 1). ebook Writing If you have the passion in writing, you can create an ebook as your hobby and be profitable at the same time. There are people who want only the business but cannot write. So, they will hire somebody to do this part. You can be a freelancer to help them write their ebook. 2). Online Tutorial You can have an online business without sacrificing your passion in teaching. You can apply online teaching as it is noted that, Filipino teachers are the most sought-after online tutors because of their traits of being passionate and fluent in English language. What you only need is a laptop, with a higher system requirement and a good WIFI signal. 3). Blogging Learn to blog. Choose a powerful headline with artistic photo. If you re good in observing and describing places and events, then you can create a good content, and a good content will attract more traffic and profit. 4
Learn to create and curate content, a businessman will find you and hire you to blog about their business. 4). Article Writing or Content Writing This is related to blogging but is more useful in completing the information written in websites or in sales page. Many companies here in the Philippines rely on websites to have a strong online presence and attract more traffic for potential clients. 5). Facebook Page Advertising If you have a physical business, you can promote this online through a Facebook page. Having this kind of promotion is comparable to paying advertisement on newspapers or in radios before. There s a process in advertising in FB so you will not be charged with higher fees. Some people might think, that Facebook is only for selfies and other social interaction that has no use at all. But to the online marketers, Facebook plays an essential role in their business. 6). Website Design and Development Creating website today is less complicated than 5 or 10 years ago. There are already tools and templates now that are easy to manage. When I was just 5
starting my physical business in 2009, I need to hire a website developer and renew it annually. But today, you already have choices to hire and pay them one time, or you can enroll in a short course to learn how to develop your own website. Having a website for every business is already necessity nowadays. 7). ecourses Development ecourse need not to be long and complicated. As a teacher, you have participated in the revision of syllabus, curriculum and reading materials in your school. Apply your knowledge to make modules for your online courses. Making your own ecourse is a sure moneymaking venture. This is a little bit taxing at the beginning. But once automated and is well maintained, you will enjoy the profit up to your retirement age. 8). Affiliate marketing This is a higher level of online business similar with ecourse development. But this is easier to do as this is also taught step by step by your Online mentor You need to have the required number of subscribers before you can be an affiliate and expand your business. Affiliate marketing is about promoting and selling other people s products and paid via commission. This could happen once you are already familiar with other processes needed to put up your online business. 6
