You Do Not Have To Be A Tech Geek
Posted by: | CommentsWhen talking to other moms that don’t have internet businesses, but are interested in doing so, I find that most are put off by the technical aspects of internet marketing. That need not stop you from building an online business. There are so many resources that meet you at your own level. From easy to use Squidoo pages, to blogging, to outsourcing all the technical aspects, you can find the help you need to get your business on the web.
Take yesterday for example. I know how do do a lot with WordPress. I can get a new one set up by myself with usually no problem & I set up this eBizmommy.com blog myself using a theme from iThemes premium WordPress themes. I even made my own header (the graphics at the top of the page.) But that doesn’t mean I know the in-depth code work necessary to figure out why my website kept crashing in the Internet Explorer browser window.
So what did I do? I asked someone who knew what they were doing to look at it. I posted on the support forum at iThemes on a Saturday night, and asked. I love iThemes because of the great WordPress themes they have as well as the awesome support. By Sunday Morning my problem was diagnosed. (By the way, never use the Firefox plugin Bi.tly if you write a WordPress blog…big glitches!!)
Ronald at iThemes, figured out what was happening on my computer when I was working on my site, and helped me fix it. I could have wasted days, or even given up, had I tried to find the problem myself…but an expert took just a little while to set things right.
Your time is valuable. I made the mistake early on to try and learn it all myself. I do know a lot about building websites and blogs now, but it took a lot of time I will never get back! Use the resources at your disposal for a quick and easy way to take your business idea and make it a reality! Don’t get bogged down in the technicalities. Do it if you like the challenge, or feel comfortable around computers, but outsource it if your don’t.

Why Do You Want An Online Business?
Posted by: | CommentsI didn’t really have a plan when I began my online e-commerce business. I started out giving some of my makeup to friends & family, then it was on ebay, then before you know it I was building my own website. One of the biggest things that hurt the growth of my business was the lack of a plan and a goal. But most importantly I didn’t have a reason for what I was doing. I just had in mind to be able to afford extras for my son & fill in for special items. It wasn’t until I got my “WHY” & my goal established that my plan started coming together.
I encourage any new mom that wants an online business to give lots of thought to why you want to start that business and what your goals are. This will help you when you find yourself straying from your original plan. You can ask yourself “will this get me closer to my goal?”
Three wonderful resources I can recommend that will help clarify your goals are:
1.) Download the FREE Report “Magnetic Goal Setting” by Danielle Miller –
http://www.magnetic-goal-setting.com
2.)”Finding Your Why” by Carrie Wilkerson- the Barefoot Executive -
What FUELS You? Driven by your WHY!
3.) & Then Watch The Boss Movie
If you use these resources before you begin you home business you will be well on your way to figuring out how your business can enhance your life, rather than rule it!
