Hey,

I wanted to thank you for filling out the survey. This was a huge
help to me and I want to address the area that most of you listed
as your main challenge to starting your own family business on
the internet.

Actually, it was not what I thought it would be, although it is
related.

I thought you would list the “technical aspects” as the main
challenge, but although a large number of you that listed that,
the #1 challenge was “where do I start?”

“What do I do first?”

“What do I sell and how do I sell it?”

“I don’t know how or where to start!”

“Where do I begin?”

“We have no idea how to begin, what to do, etc… I’m sure you
get the picture!”

Do you feel the same way? I know I did when I first started out.
After all, what good is choosing a domain name, getting some web
hosting and building a web site complete with shopping cart if
you don’t know who you are trying to sell to and what they
want!?!

That is why I started at the very beginning with my new course,
“Secrets to Building Sites that Sell”. The first video is
“choosing what to sell on the internet” and the very next video
covers the different types of web sites and which ones work well
with which products. You see, not everyone will want to sell the
same things (which is a very good thing!) and not everyone will
want to sell in the same way.

Some of you will want to sell good old-fashioned hard goods that
you ship and we teach you how to determine the demand for your
goods, the best type of site to make for hard goods and where to
find wholesalers to purchase those goods. Others will want to
recommend other people’s web sites and receive a commission for
the recommendation. We teach you where to find those affiliate
sites and products, how to build your pages for maximum effect
and how to ensure that you get the credit for the sale and thus,
the commission.

Still others will want to create their own products and “Secrets
to Building Sites That Sell” will show you step by step how to do
that, which types of web sites to use and how to measure demand
BEFORE you spend all that time creating a product. Nothing is
worse than spending hundreds of hours on a product that nobody
wants!

Of course, some will want to sell all of the above and “Secrets
to Building Sites That Sell” will show you how to integrate all
of those types of products and methods of sales into a single web
site.

At this point, you may be wondering what “Secrets to Building
Sites that Sell” is and how it can do all these things. Well, it
is a video tutorial that shows you step by step how to choose a
niche, measure demand in that niche, how to choose a product that
niche needs and is willing to pay for, what type of website works
best for your particular product and selling method, how to set
up a web site and put it up on the web, how to integrate a
shopping cart and collect the money and so much more!

How do I show you all this? Do I come to your living room and
show you on your computer? Well, actually I do better than that!

I have made a video of my computer screen and I have recorded my
voice as I talk you through each step. You will even see my mouse
movements as I go through every movement you will go through. It
is like looking over my shoulder as I explain every part and why
it is important. And the best thing is that you can watch
something again if you need to.

You see, if I get on a plane and come to your house…well, you
would see me demonstrate it one time…and then I would be headed
back home. But this way, if you want to see the exact steps
again, or you want to pause while you get a cup of coffee, I will
be patiently waiting inside your computer until you tell me to
start again.

And you can go at your own pace…when you have the time…or
perhaps assign video clips to your children so they can learn to
do all that I am showing you! Think about what you will be
empowering them to do. Earn money at will. That is a skill that
does not come along every day!

So, where do you start?

Well, if you have “Secrets to Building Sites That Sell”, I will
take you by the hand and we will start at the very
beginning…together! You will understand the Big Picture so you
know where you are going. Then, you will learn all of the steps
to getting where you want to be…having a PROFITABLE web site
that you are certain will succeed because you will have
researched it thoroughly using my tested methods for niche
research.

Even many of you that have a web site already have never started
at the very beginning. Have never looked at the big picture of
where your site is, what it is trying to accomplish and how you
are going to achieve your goals. Is your site a stream-lined
vessel able to navigate nimbly through the rough waters of
competition? Perhaps you need to start at the beginning
with the end in mind.

Here is a quote from someone who has gotten a sneak preview of my
course…

Steve, I have to say that I would never have even got this far
without your video tutorials on Secrets to Building Sites That
Sell.

Almost every screen of setting up any of these new accounts or
programs presents me with questions that, without help, would
have brought the whole project to a halt. Instead I watch the
relevant tutorial screen by screen, know just what to do and see
immediate results without all the frustration.

When you get used to doing these things, it seems laughable that
someone would get so confused … but until the learning curve is
mastered, the obstacles are real!

When I was a child I couldn’t imagine how anyone could drive a
car and I can remember the day as a teenager when I sat in a
remote country lane in England behind the wheel of our family car
for the first time  … and actually made it go!  I laughed with
joy and delight!

For many more years, I have been wondering how anyone could
possibly build a website and how could we ever successfully
translate our business and writing ideas into the intricacies of
cyberspace.

Wow!  It’s actually going to happen!

Next time we will cover the second main challenge to starting a
family business on the internet…the technical challenges.

Until then,

Blessings,

Stephen Beck
