5 Fundamental Secrets To Making Money Online That No Web Developer Will Share With You! Mikhail Howitz May 27, 2019·6 min read

One of the most pivotal decisions human beings are faced with today is if you should keep growing a career in your 9–5 job or do you become an entrepreneur?

Learning how to make money online can be tricky and this is the reason I felt a strong urge to put out some resourceful information on how you can start your own online business and make money online, while still keeping your day job.

Imagine living your journey for five years, then abruptly discovering everything you worked toward was nothing near what you expected. A large number of people coming out of college or in corporate careers go through this experience. The career path you chose to study for 4 years, so you could finally get a job that eventually you wake up one day and realize that this is just not for you… It sucks, but it honestly is a reality for most young and old individuals in the corporate world.

Entrepreneurship is not an easy journey, the time and money you invest only begin to manifest later on, but like all businesses the faster you get started the faster you get paid.

All I want to say to you is that you can fall into the trap of being a procrastinator or you can get to work. When starting a business all sorts of excuses will come your way, “I don’t have the money to start a business, where will I find the time”, whatever excuses you are about to think of, I’ve already heard it and that is why I have made it simple for you to find a business idea and then grow your business into a brand and begin to make money online.

All you have to do is follow these 5 simple steps:

If you are reading this article now, it tells me you have access to a smartphone or a desktop device, either way, all you need is access to the internet. If you have a smartphone, go to the app store or play store and download an app called Pinterest or if you are on a desktop device go to www.Pinterest.com to access the website. Pinterest is a social network platform that gives you access to all types of creative ideas in really cool images, where you can share your images and gain inspiration from what already exists on the platform. Once you have logged onto Pinterest, search for images or ideas you think will do well and begin to save these images of current and relevant products to your account. Once you have identified a few products you now have a basic idea of what you can sell to your market. I would advise you to do some research to see what your competitors are selling and then write down a few ideas on how you can make your product more unique. Another tip when researching what product is best to sell online, you can go to www.Amazon.com and click on the top 100 best selling products, then go through those products and identify a few that you have knowledge on, choose one of these products and then head back to Pinterest to grab your cool images. Now that you have your idea, head over to the app store or play store and download an app called Alibaba or go to www.Alibaba.com to look for a supplier of the product you have just identified on Amazon and Pinterest. Alibaba has a world of suppliers and this is where you will find suppliers that will manufacture your products at jaw-dropping inexpensive prices and best of all they will even ship these products to you and your customers. Start speaking to your suppliers and get a feel on the various qualities and prices of the products you are looking to sell. Once you are happy with the pricing, you will need to order a sample and have it delivered to your home, this will enable you to see what the estimated time of arrival looks like and now you can approve the quality of the product before promoting it and sending it to your customers. When you receive your item and you are happy with it, you will be in business. Setting up a simple website won’t take you a long time to do. There are many options, but I want to show you a simple way to set up a domain name and build a website for your products to live on and for your business to look professional online. You might be saying to yourself I don’t have a logo for my product… This next step will allow you to get a business set up online very quickly. Shopify is an e-commerce site that provides you a platform online for you to sell your products and services if you have a service based company. For now, we are just going to focus on setting up a product based online business. Get yourself a FREE trial at www.shopify.com which you can operate on either a smartphone or a desktop device. Shopify will help you design a logo for your business and add in all your products onto your new e-commerce website platform. You can pick from a range of cool templates that suits your business well and set up your payment gateways to be linked to your business bank account. Once your Shopify website is set up, now its time to share your business with the world. Facebook, Instagram, Twitter, and LinkedIn all have different purposes and it is vital for you to understand your target market and where your consumers live. Your next step will be to register the businesses social media pages, one small tip will be to keep your domain name and social media names the same. For example, if your business name is “happy socks”, make sure your social media accounts and your domain name reads “happy socks” it just makes it so much easier for your customers to find you. Once you have your social media accounts registered, here are a few apps that will make posting for your business more fun. Typorama, UNUM, Airbrush, and Swish are a few great apps to manage and create a really awesome looking social media account for your brand.

This final step is often overlooked by businesses, but if mastered and executed correctly, it will change the growth of your business tremendously. When a customer buys a product online or at a store, it is the experience that allows them to come back and make the second purchase.
