The Truth About Internet Business
Every day, in the real world, millions of people drag themselves out of bed, take a shower, grab some coffee, and head off to work—wishing there was an easier way to make a living.
Almost all of these people know someone who has quit the daily grind and now earns a comfortable income working from home on their computer. To them, working from home sounds like the perfect solution.
Unfortunately, many of these unhappy workers jump into internet marketing with no preparation, no training, and no understanding of what they’re doing. They hope for success, but without the basics, failure is almost guaranteed.
According to many sources, more than 90% of online business start-ups fail within the first 120 days. Yes—NINETY percent!
This should be a serious warning for anyone considering online business as a full-time replacement for their regular job.
But here’s the good news: success is possible. The other 10% succeed because they don’t rely on luck. They succeed because they understand how online business truly works.
Successful people don’t expect to “get rich quick.” They know it takes real work, real strategy, and real commitment.
It’s surprising—people who would never open a physical business think they can magically succeed online without any business knowledge at all.
Some believe they can work only when they feel like it and still make good money. They think an online business means freedom without effort. But that’s not how it works. Success takes discipline and consistent effort.
Wrong Perceptions About the Internet

The high failure rate of online businesses isn’t shocking when you consider how many people think running a website is as simple as building a page and waiting for money to roll in. It doesn’t work like that. Running a successful online business requires self-discipline. Many new entrepreneurs think they can stay up all night, sleep until noon, and work just a few hours. They expect customers to find their website automatically and start paying them. That’s a fantasy. Online businesses are not automatic. Yes, experienced marketers eventually earn more with fewer hours—but only after many long, demanding days of hard work. Most beginners are completely unprepared for the amount of time and effort required to build a successful internet business.
No Business BackgroundYou need to understand basic business principles like expenses, profits, losses, and how much money you’ll need to keep things running. You don’t need a college degree, but you do need basic business knowledge. If balancing a checkbook is a challenge for you, it’s wise to keep your day job while learning the ropes. When you start an online business, you MUST keep your current job. Your family still needs financial support while your business grows. Every successful business follows proven business principles. Success doesn’t happen by accident—especially online. Only 10% of new internet businesses survive the first 120 days. It’s unrealistic to expect profit right away. Most businesses take months to become profitable. You must have enough money set aside to support both your business and your household during this time. This is called “capital”—and you cannot avoid needing it. You must use good financial judgment. If you can’t, make sure you have a partner or spouse who can—and listen to them. To succeed, you need: • Commitment • A product • A website • A payment processor • And most importantly—a PLAN We will discuss all of these in the other sections of this website.
