Online Start Up. Build a website or Turnkey website? (Part 2)

Copyright © 2006 Penny Shellswell

Choosing a turnkey website

As with affiliate programs there are thousands of sites to choose from and trying to discern the good from the bad can be like looking for a needle in a haystack. The more promotional sales letters you read the more confused you can become.

Some sales letters make it all sound so easy. ‘Click here to earn $150 in under 4 minutes’. ‘Earn $2000 in your first week’. Don’t be deceived. Most successful online businesses are not get rich quick schemes.

It is not possible within the scope of this article to list all the things to beware, but fundamentally if there is no product to sell, avoid it. If you are asked to join before you know what it is all about, I would be suspicious. If there is only one product, can you really build a large income?

Is there any way you can check out the honesty and integrity of the person behind the promotional sales letter? This is not always possible but it can be a help in the early days to get a feel for who is promoting the package.

How can you get sound advice?

If you needed a dental check up you would not go to an electrician! If you needed a plumber you would not go to a college teacher. Does this sound obvious? Yet it is quite staggering the number of people who seek advice, about whether to start an online business, from unqualified people such as family and friends. Beware the trap!

If you need advice on anything go to an expert. Somebody who has gone ahead of you, paved the way and has proved the ground.

It is quite scary the number of people who when it comes to the internet seem to throw caution to the wind and common sense out of the window. They read a promotional sales letter, get all excited and sign up. Only then do they look in more detail and wonder what on earth they are supposed to do. You need to be able to rely on a helping hand.

We had an email only last week from someone who signed up to one of our programs and then emailed us with questions. We were able to point her to some training and step-by-step information.
