Do You Need A Website?

A question that comes up when getting started
online is whether or not you really need
a website.

There are differing views on this and I think
the answer will really depend on your strategy.

If you are in a hurry to get your feet wet
with your online business you can become an
affiliate for another company’s product. Then
you just promote your affiliate link which
will take any potential customers directly to
the company’s website.

By taking this approach you can receive commissions
for any sales and you wouldn’t need your own
website.

If you decide not to have a website, it can save
you time and money because you won’t need a domain
name or web hosting, and you don’t need to learn
about getting a website up and running.

The downside of this strategy is you will not
be building your list of potential customers.
Many people do not buy with their first exposure
to a product and need to hear about it over
and over again before they are ready to purchase.

By sending the potential customer directly to
the company’s website and not capturing their
name and email address, you will lose the
capability to contact them.

If you’re planning to build a long term business
it would be helpful to at least have a simple
website to capture names and email addresses.
This will allow you the opportunity to contact your
list multiple times about similar products
that may be of benefit to them.

There are many ways to get started online. Keep
in mind it is possible to make income with or
without a website. Your strategy will help
determine what will work best for your business.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Focus Thoughts & Forward Momentum

“Live life fully while you’re here. Experience
everything. Take care of yourself and your friends.
Have fun, be crazy, be weird. Go out and screw up!
You’re going to anyway, so you might as well enjoy
the process. Take the opportunity to learn from
your mistakes: find the cause of your problem and
eliminate it. Don’t try to be perfect; just be an
excellent example of being human.”
-Anthony Robbins
 
Enjoy your business and have some fun too! 🙂
