Your steps to starting a Business.

Because of the internet, these days getting a business started is just as easy as putting a pot of water on the stove.

Nothing is going to happen to that pot of water unless you add heat. The same applies to your business.

A business (pot of water) takes at least a year of you adding heat before you will start to see bubbles. Excepting faster results because it's an online business is setting yourself, up to fail.

Boiling any business down to it's core you find they are either selling a product or service. If you boil a business down and don't find that they are selling a product or service then it's a very good chance that it's a scam.

My blog falls under services. My online store falls under products.

Because of the internet, there is a lot of new types of services, and a lot of new ways for scammers to scam a person. They are still called Con-men.(They are not just men, there are women as well. They are really good sales-people.) Someone just starting a business for the first time makes easy prey for Con-men.

Ok, I've warned you about Con-men, I've discussed products and services with you, and I've hopefully put your mind to a realistic time frame.
