If you're thinking about starting a home based business online you're on the right track to establishing a good business foundation.
Internet opportunities are abundant and there's simply tons of good information to get you started. However starting out can be overwhelming.
I suggest learning from those who have made a business of creating successful entrepreneurs. If you plan and take the proper steps, you will be amazed at how soon you will be up and running and making a profit.
Here are 6 lessons that I believe are the "real" secrets to successful business building for your online business:

Lesson 1: Don't expect overnight success. Despite what the television ads might state or what the information products might claim, success in the online world doesn't happen overnight. There will be a few who will spot a profitable trend before anyone else does, but eventually the income will fizzle and they'll have to find another profitable trend. Just like any other business, an online business takes a great deal of time and attention. Some of the tasks can be automated, but you still have to pay attention to what's happening so that you can effectively create your marketing and promotion strategy.
Lesson 2: Be willing to give your info away for free. Some experts will tell you never to give away your information or expertise. I advocate that you should demonstrate what you know, as that is key in helping you build online relationships, and those who are really ready to implement your strategies will seek you out.
Lesson 3: Another good business building strategy is to submit your site to as many directories building a successful online as possible. This also is a tremendous way to get tons of back links to your site.
Lesson 4: You can't have a successful small business without having a successful small business marketing plan. Effective small business marketing is the way to growth and profits.
Lesson 5: You need to have a marketing plan and a daily schedule. Once you've created those plans STICK TO THEM.
Lesson 6: Writing articles is an excellent business building technique. Surprisingly, this is one of the best ways to keep customers, draw new customers and give yourself more avenues for advertising. All of which are essential for your e-commerce business to survive and flourish.
