Why Have An Internet Marketing Business?
Author: Murray Hughes
"The Internet Gold Rush is under way" Bill Gates, chairman
Microsoft Corporation.
Early settlers understood if you are going to build a
community, build it near a permanent, abundant source of
fresh water. And that's why in all countries around the
world, communities were built around streams, rivers and
lakes. That's good common sense.
Now let's apply that same wisdom to developing a business.
If you are going to develop a work from home business,
develop it near a permanent (or long term), abundant source
of cash flow. You'd agree with that wouldn't you? Again
that's good common sense.
More succinctly, you identify where huge amounts of
money are being spent in a growing industry with good long
term prospects.
The Internet complies with these criteria better than any
other industry in history. Gold, silver, coal, oil, LPG
have all been massive industries but you either had to
leave home to stake your claim, invest more than the
average person could ever afford before even seeing your
first dollar, the resource dried up and the opportunity
ended or the industry became obsolete.
If current Internet and e-commerce trends continue, which at
the moment there appears to be no reason why they wouldn't,
indeed a new age in consumerism has arrived. The statistics
speak for themselves.
[U.S. online retail sales are expected to reach $65 billion
in 2004, and will continue to grow by a compound annual
growth rate of 17 percent through 2008 to top $117 billion,
according to a report issued from Jupiter Research.
"Market Forecast: U.S. Retail 2004-2008," the growth in
online retail will be due in part to new online buyers, not
just veterans, who have come to embrace the medium. Jupiter
expects that the online buying population will grow by 14
percent in 2004, representing 30 percent of the U.S.
population. By 2008, one-half of the population will make
purchases online.
Online retail growth will be fueled by another factor:
increased average spending per buyer. In 2004, online
buyers are expected to spend an average of $585 person, up
from $540 per buyer in 2003. That trend in higher spending
is expected to increase over the next five years: Through
2008, average spending per buyer will be close to $780 per
buyer.] Taken from an article by Laura Rush, Clickz.com
They are extremely promising statistics and the implications
for those of us who are creating an Internet presence now
are profound. If you are able to develop an effective
Internet marketing business now, your income could grow at
a compound rate for the next several years.
There are additional reasons why now is the perfect timing
for starting an Internet marketing home business:
The industry has already been successfully pioneered and
many of those that trail blazed before you have made
available, information about every imaginable facet of
Internet marketing. See Internet marketing courses at

Building and developing web sites no longer requires you to
learn HTML code. There are several software products that
make building web sites easy and enjoyable.
Making your site available on the Internet for other people
to visit is very cheap. For example, buying a name can cost
less than $6/year (if you know where to go, see cheap
domain names) and having it available on the Internet can
cost as little as $7 to $8 per month or even cheaper if
you're prepared to settle for lower quality standards.
There are hundreds of pre-packaged, ready to go work from
home business opportunities that don't require you to build
anything. They provide training, resources, web sites and
support. Unfortunately, a lot of them are not worth your
time. See The Best Work From Home Business Opportunities
for the programs that I personally endorse at:

You have immediate access to a world-wide market; over 729.2
million (March 2004).
If you sell a digital product distributions costs are
practically zero (amazing isn't it!)
Profit margins are very, very high; levels unheard of in the
traditional business world.
Your number 1 salesman (your web site) will never take a
holiday, working day after day 24/7 for a little at $8/month!
There is no better time than now to begin your business and
change the course of the rest of your life. Every journey
begins with the first step but no one can take it for you.
Take action now.
