Bisnis Kecantikan dan Kesehatan, Perpaduan Herbal Treatment & Teknologi

Esther House of Beauty

Esther House of Beauty berdiri sejak tanggal 26 juli 1994 dengan nama Esther Beauty Clinique and Slimming Center, kemudian berubah menjadi ESTHER HOUSE OF BEAUTY, yaitu perusahaan yang bergerak di bidang kecantikan dan kesehatan kulit yang menawarkan konsep perawatan dengan memadukan bahan baku alami (herbal treatment) dan teknologi modern (oleh Esther House of Beauty dikenal dengan sebutan advanced aesthetic therapy) dan telah memiliki cabang di 14 kota besar di seluruh Indonesia.

Sejak tahun 2000 kami memberanikan diri untuk memperluas bisnis ini dengan system kerjasama waralaba (franchise). Konsep kemitraan kami adalah kerjasama selama 5 tahun, dengan investasi awal Rp 400 juta yang sudah termasuk di dalamnya berupa peralatan-peralatan operasional dan non operasional, treatment equipment, serta biaya harga training dan sebagainya (tidak termasuk gedung/renovasi se-harga -/+Rp 200juta).

Alasan kami mengembangkan usaha ini karena peluang dan potensi yang ada dalam bisnis kecantikan ini sangat terbuka luas. Masyarakat mulai memandang kecantikan tidak terbatas hanya sebagai kebutuhan sekunder atau bahkan tersier, dan hanya terbatas pada kaum hawa saja. Kini masyarakat makin melihat kecantikan sebagai gaya hidup dan kebutuhan primer.

Dari segi potensi bisnisnya, terlihat dari makin maraknya salon-salon dan klinik-klinik kecantikan yang makin menjamur tidak perduli seberapapun competitor yang ada. Serta makin maraknya pameran-pameran kecantikan yang cukup besar yang membawa bendera internasional dengan berani menginvestasikan event tersebut di Indonesia. Oleh sebab itu, kami merasa sangatlah tepat jika kami mengembangkan bisnis kecantikan ini sebagai pembawa jawaban dan solusi akan setiap permasalahan akan kecantikan dan kesehatan kulit. Dukungan berupa pendampingan dan pendidikan dan latihan yang berkesinambungan bagi SDM (min.1 tahun sekali), jaminan pengadaan dan distribusi bahan baku khusus yang berkesinambungan dan selalu menjaga kualitas, system penetapan harga dan pemasaran yang terpadu, standarisasi tampilan bangunan dan penataan interior/eksterior tempat usaha.

Persyaratan menjadi franchisee juga cukup mudah, yaitu hanya mengajukan permohonan secara tertulis, dan bersedia untuk diwawancarai, mempunyai tempat/lokasi usaha sesuai dengan criteria yang telah ditetapkan, yaitu minimal luas tempat usaha 200 m2 (dilengkapi dengan IMB, listrik minimal 1.300 watt, instalasi air panas dan dingin dengan tenaga listrik, PABX telephone system, generator, tempat parkir memadai.) Persyaratan lainnya adalah, bersedia menjadi franchisee aktif, serta melaksanakan system operasi klinik sesuai “standard operational procedure” Esther House Of beauty. ***

Mau Bisnis Yang Tidak Terpengaruh Pada Trend, Life Style ataupun Mode?

Mau Bisnis Yang Tidak Terpengaruh Pada Trend, Life Style ataupun Mode?
kiriman: Bpk. Ya'kub Suherman, Salatiga

Apotek K-24
Tiada hari tanpa prestasi, begitulah kira-kira kata yang tepat untuk apotek k-24. Waralaba asal jogjakarta ini terus melakukan ekspansi bisnisnya ke beberapa kota di Indonesia sehingga beberapa kali mendapatkan peng-harga-an dari MURI (museum rekor dunia Indonesia). Bulan Agustus lalu saja contohnya, apotek k-24 baru saja mendapatkan peng-harga-an rekor MURI sebagai apotek yang melakukan pembukaan outlet terbanyak serentak, 24 outlet di 13 kota. Pembukaannya sendiri dipusatkan di kota hujan, bogor dan diresmikan oleh wakil gubernur jawa barat, H. Dede Yusuf.

Menurut Wenny Tri Suryani, franchise manager apotek k-24, dengan dibukanya 24 gerai secara serentak, membuat apotek k-24 semakin mengukuhkan diri sebagai jaringan waralaba apotek terbesar di Indonesia dengan total outlet per September 85 buah.
Sementara Gideon Hartono, direktur sekaligus founder apotek k-24 mengatakan, apotek k-24 diwaralabakan agar bisa sebanyak mungkin menyebar di seluruh Indonesia sehingga bisa mewujudkan misi luhurnya yakni meng-harga-i masyarakat dengan menyediakan kebutuhan akan obat-obatan yang asli dan komplit secara merata, serta selalu melayani 24 jam non stop.

Gideon menerangkan, bisnis apotek adalah ladang emas yang ber-harga tinggi yang tidak berkesudahan apapun kondisinya. Dia akan tetap dibutuhkan, sepanjang orang masih meng-harga-i kesehatan. ”Jadi ini bukan bisnis musiman. Tidak terpengaruh pada trend, life style, ataupun mode,” ujarnya.

Dari segi harga investasi, untuk membuka apotek k-24 relatif terjangkau. Pasalnya, franchisee fee-nya cuma di-hargai-i Rp 80 juta untuk masa kerja 6 tahun. Sedangkan untuk harga royalty fee juga relative rendah, hanya 1,2 % dari omset kotor per bulan. Gideon mengatakan harga royalty fee di apotek k-24 adalah yang paling rendah dibanding waralaba apotek yang lain. Rendahnya harga royalty fee dimaksudkan agar tidak memberatkan franchisee.

Selanjutnya, untuk pendirian gerai minimal membutuhkan ruangan berukuran 60 m2 dengan lokasi di tempat yang strategis. Ruangan tersebut harus sesuai standar apotek k-24 mulai dari mebelair, interior, eksterior, sarana IT dan signage. Kalau dihitung secara keseluruhan, untuk membuka 1 gerai apotek k-24 franchisee harus menyediakan dana investasi awal se-harga Rp 650 juta hingga Rp700 juta.

Karena merupakan bisnis waralaba, maka dukungan kepada franchisee sudah termasuk dari harga dan pasti akan diberikan. Dukungan diberikan mulai dari dukungan pra operasional sampai dengan operasional. Dukungan pra operasional seperti survey lokasi, desain outlet, penyediaan SDM, initial training, stok obat awal, dan lain-lain. Sedangkan dukungan operasional meliputi training SDM, pendampingan, administrasi dan financial, serta promosi dan lain-lain.

Lantaran apotek k-24 buka selama 24 jam non stop serta produk obat-obatan yang dijual asli dan terjangkau harga-nya, dari pengalaman outlet yang sudah berjalan, rata-rata bisa menghasilkan omset yang sangat membanggakan, sekitar Rp 250 juta-300 juta sebulan.

Hi-lab, Laboratorium Diagnostic Centre
Kesuksesan apotek k-24 merajai jaringan waralaba apotek di Indonesia, membuat sang founder Gideon Hartono mendirikan usaha laboratorium diagnostic centre yang diberi nama hi-lab. Dan sama seperti apotek k-24, hi-lab juga disiapkan pengembangannya melalui pola waralaba dengan harapan bisa meng-indonesia bahkan meng-asia.

Sebagai langkah awal, hi-lab yang dirintis oleh Gideon pada desember 2007 di jogjakarta, akan membuka cabangnya di Jakarta. Menurut Wenny, pembukaan cabang hi-lab di Jakarta merupakan hasil kerjasama dengan salah satu franchisee apotek k-24 di Jakarta.” Sejak awal hi-lab sudah dibuat dengan system yang siap untuk franchise, semua sudah ada standarisasi,” kata wenny.

Dijelaskan, sebagai laboratorium diagnostic centre hi-lab mengutamakan kecanggihan teknologi. Dan lagi-lagi kecanggihannya itu sudah diakui oleh MURI sebagai laboratorium pertama di Indonesia yang hasil labnya dapat diakses melalui sms dan internet.
“kelebihan hi-lab sebagai diagnostic centre adalah paling luas, teknologi canggih, berkualitasdan cepat namun dengan biaya yang terjangkau,”imbuh Gideon. ***

Advertising techniques for small online and home based businesses.

What's the greatest advantage that you have when advertising your small online or home based business?
The written word! Your website content. Your ads. I believe that the written word is the second most intimate form of communication in the world. It's our major advantage! As you're reading this article, you are reading my words, and my thoughts. But I believe that people subconciously interpret the written word, as though it were being spoken or heard.

Yes, they are my words, and my thoughts, but... what you are reading right now is being "broadcast" to your mind in YOUR voice! I'm literally "closer to you right now, than I would be if I were sitting right next to you. When someone reads your website content or ads, it's completely voluntary. No filters. Just you and your potential customer. Now the question is are we going to constantly go on about the benefits of our products, our guarantees, and our low, low prices, or are we going to use this time to address our potential customer's want's and needs. When a person makes a purchase there's always a "human" factor involved in the final decision making process.

For example, you may need dish washing liquid today. Sounds simple right? So am I going to tell you my customer how great my dish washing soap is? Or will I mention an article I read not long ago about the many different types of bacteria that lounge on kitchen surfaces and utensils even when they look clean? Approach number one was all about how good my product is. The latter technique, is all about you. My potential customer.

Now we are showing concern for the well being of our potential customer. And isn't that what most purchasing decisions are all about anyway? Well being. Having more. Replenishing resources. Charity. It's all HUMAN. Not just products, benefits, prices and guarantees. Everybody has those! And furthermore, the next time that potential customer visits your online business, they may not need dish washing liquid, but there's a good chance they WILL remember the concern your home based business, (which should represent your unique personality) showed for their well being.

If a two percent sale conversion rate is average for overall Internet purchases, then there has to be a better way to convert potential customers into loyal customers. Because as a small online business owner, If you try to buy all of your customer's through Pay Per Click, the minute you stop paying per click, or can no longer afford to PPC, you lose all of your potential customer's! You will never really own your online business, if you have to pay for every click. I think that the most economical way to approach this ridiculous two percent conversion rate is to make the most of the potential customer's you already have.

I think it's way to easy to "blame" the public, our potential customer's wariness of privacy issues, accountability issues, and not being able to physically touch or smell their purchase's for what seems to be a reluctance or phobia of shopping online. All of these topics are concerns, but in 2007, I won't allow my home based business to lean on that "crutch."

I believe that the majority of people who use the Internet would LOVE to complete a purchase online!

I remember the first purchase I completed online. The convienience of it was literally exhilarating! I couldn't believe it! Click and I had what I wanted! I think my first purchase was a DVD from Amazon. Take a second... remember how you felt when you made your first purchase... As you're thinking about how you were feeling when you completed your first Internet purchase, I'll move on to our next point, how can we influence our customers, and potential cotomer's adrenaline to flow in a way that will cause them to remember and think about YOUR products and or services...

Remembering past experiences
When I used to sell pre need funeral arrangements, (Hey! you gotta' work to eat! smiles!) Their sales training program emphasized getting our potential customers to recall the last time they may have helped or observed family or friends make funeral arrangements after a loved one has deceased.

Usually those are very somber times. Sometimes very unpleasant emotional moments occur. My job was to help you to remember those possible moments to the extent that you would do anything that you could afford to do, to alleviate yourself, family or friends from experiencing these unpleasant moments again. Our main "key phrase" was "Death always comes as a surprise." Remembering those sad and somber emotions would usually make a potential customer's adrenaline flow enough to lead to action, which on a good day was usually a sale. My first solo customer cried a river, weeped, bawled, and leaned on a wall! And i'm a disc jockey! I make people happy! I didn't know what to do! Talk about a two percent conversion rate. I found it that day! I didn't know whether to apologize or to ask for the sale!

Of course you probably don't want to make your customer's cry... but, if you can help your customer to remember how they felt the last time they needed or wanted your products or services, or if you can help your customer realistically anticipate what it would be like to own your product or services, help them to take ownership of your products or services before they complete the purchase cycle, you'll be on your way to communicating with your customer's on a subliminal level. Just below the surface. Which is where you wil also find trust and confidence. People feel a kinship with others who have similar experiences to their own. best Buy, Amazon, Microsoft, are all way too big now, to have the luxury of being able to communicate with the majority of their customer's on a personal level. As a small online or home based business owner, you have the opportunity to connect personally with all of your potential customer's and customer's.

How do you do this when all types of people from around the world, with different languages and cultures are visiting my online business? Answer?

First of all let's understand that your website content and your advertisments are the same. Even if you have a strictly content based website. Everything that you do online is an advertisment for your business. Alway's remember this... when you are communicating with masses of people at once, you can't address the "PEOPLE."

Sounds weird right? Here's what I mean...
If you try to address "people", you are bound to leave certain groups out of the conversation. Due to cultural, language and age barriers to name just a few obstacles. What you need to figure out is this...

What is it that ALL human beings have in common? Well... I'm glad you asked! (smiles!)
Feelings, Feelings, Feelings! We all have feelings. We just experience them in different proportions.
When you are writing or choosing the content for your home based business, you need to speak to your potential customer's humanity. No matter what you are selling or informing about... connect on a human level. Where is the humanity in your product or services? Do you repair roofs? Then you protect families!, Do you help others start their very own home based business? Then you provide opportunities for families to enjoy a better life, which in turn makes the world better for all of us!.

Do you get my point? Tie what you do into humanity. Then no one get's excluded!
The other thing you have to do is truly CARE about your potential customer's. If you've noticed I hardly ever refer to them as "Traffic" or "website visitors." I won't allow myself for one minute to think of the people that visit my home based business as "numbers" or as "unique visitors." As far as my mentality is concerned, everything on the Internet is "virtual" except for the PEOPLE.

I may never physically SEE you... but I know you are there, and that you are a real person trying to make a better life for yourself, and those who are close to you. I know that you don't want to be lied to. I know that you don't want me to waste your time. I know that you want what you want. And that you need what you need. What more do I need to know? How can my business be of assistance? How can your business be of assistance to your potential customer's on a human level. On an emotional level. Developing customer trust and confidence is the real "shortcut" to success with your small online or home based business! It may take a long ways to "get there" but the wait will be well worth your while! And the good news is... building trust and confidence is a task you'll only have to do once!

This two percent average conversion rate for all online businesses is ridiculous. It's mediocre at best! You are not a mediocre person! DO NOT allow a set of statistics to convince you into accepting mediocrity. The two percent conversion rate should only apply to those small online and home based businesses that focus strictly on the concept of sell, sell, sell! Instead of trust, trust, trust, and confidence, confidence, confidence!

If the success of your small online or home based business is leveraged on creating an urgency to Buy Right Now, then the success of your business will be limited indeed!
Ohhh...Look at the time!

I gotta go now! I MUST return to my mountain top retreat! (smiles!)
Don't forget what I said!
Peace, and have an inspired day!
And always remember...
"Any pursuit is great... when GREATLY pursued!" ***

Melihat Bisnis Kecantikan Amethyst Slimming Center
kiriman: Rohman Supratman, Rojolali, Jatim
Bentuk tubuh yang ideal, langsing dan sehat adalah dambaan setiap orang, terutama wanita, dari dahulu sampai saat ini. Dengan bentuk tubuh yang langsing dan sehat, harga dan rasa percaya diri akan meningkat. Sayangnya harga mahal untuk mendapatkan bentuk tubuh yang ideal seringkali mendapatkan hambatan gara-gara pola makan yang tidak sehat dan kurang berolahraga. Alhasil, bentuk tubuh ideal dan langsing seringkali menjadi sesuatu yang mustahil. Ujung-ujungnya putus asa dan tidak percaya diri.

Amethyst Slimming Center memberi harapan kepada mereka yang sudah putus asa dan merasa tidak ber-harga dan tidak mungkin memiliki tubuh yang ideal dan sehat. Menurut Alex Iskandar, Director Amethyst Slimming Center, metode pelangsingan yang digunakan adalah slimming massage, suatu metode pelangsingan tubuh yang aman, nyaman, affordable dan tentunya result oriented. ”Dijamin bisa susut 2-8 cm dalam sekali treatment,” tandas Alex.

Hebatnya lagi, Amethyst Slimming Center bukan hanya memberikan hasil yang sangat nyata, aman, nyaman dan manusiawi, tetapi juga ingin memastikan agar semua orang dapat mendapatkan pemahaman cara mendapatkan tubuh yang proporsional dengan benar, aman dan sehat. ”jadi layanan yang ditawarkan bukan sekedar pelangsingan dan kecantikan saja tapi juga mencakup unsur kesehatannya,” kata Alex. Dengan demikian Amethyst berbeda dengan Spa atau relaksasi lain. ”kita sangat fokus di bidang usaha Slimming center dan tidak “berpetualang” ke bidang-bidang yang lain seperti spa, perawatan rambut, refleksi dll,” imbuhnya lagi.

Tak heran, dengan keunggulan itu Amethyst dari yang awalnya hanya masih home service yang kurang ber-harga, dengan mengirim terapis ke rumah-rumah kini telah banyak memiliki pelanggan loyal. ”Center kami banyak dikunjungi oleh pelanggan dari Jakarta Timur dan Selatan. Oleh karena itu kami membuka cabang lagi di Senayan, Pondok Indah dan terakhir di Gading Serpong,” beber Alex.

Alex menambahkan, Amethyst Slimming Center menawarkan system kemitraan kepada masyarakat yang tertarik di bisnis kecantikan dan kesehatan. Kemitraan yang ditawarkannya secara umum sama dengan yang lain. Mitra akan dibantu start up awal mulai dari pelatihan terapis, pelatihan customer service, pemilihan kontraktor/supplier equipment, pembelian produk sampai dengan marketing dan pre opening consultation. Mitra kemudian juga akan diberikan marketing tools dan SOP untuk pembukaan outlet dan operasional serta standard pelatihan untuk terapis.

Tidak ketinggalan mitra akan di training oleh terapis yang berpengalaman dan mengerti anatomi tubuh selama 1-2 bulan agar dapat memberikan pelayanan yang sesuai dengan standard Amethyst Slimming Center.

Untuk kemitraan Amethyst Slimming Center dibutuhkan harga investasi sebesar Rp 200 juta all in. Sudah termasuk harga inventory, harga equipment, harga renovasi dan harga perizinan. Investasi ini diluar harga franchise fee Rp 50 juta dan sewa tempat usaha.

Investasi Amethyst terbilang tidak mahal. Dengan pelayanan treatment beragam mulai dari pelangsingan perut, pelangsingan lengan, pelangsingan paha dan perawatan payudara. Jika sehari ada 8 treatment, harga sekali treatment Rp 250 ribu maka dalam sebulan menghasilkan omset Rp 60 juta. Omset sebesar itu, dalam kurun waktu tidak lebih dari 1,5 tahun sudah ROI.***

* They are new, in shiny boxes and have factory backed warranties! Thosethings are all very important to the person buying the products off of you.
* If the product turns out to be flawed you will be able to send it back towhere you got it from and get a replacement or repairs.
* New products will attract more attention and usually get more bids.Everyone wants new stuff! So when you sell new stuff make sure you letpeople know that it's new! New products are something to brag about.NEW products disadvantages;
* It is harder to get your hands on new products and you will almost alwaysneed a tax ID. Stuff like kitchen knives and toasters is usually easy to findand available to anyone who can afford the minimum order quantity.
* Stuff like plasma TVs, laptop computers and DVD players are a littleharder to find and unless you order a truck load can sometimes leave littleroom for profit (on eBay).

Stuff like expensive watches can be nearlyimpossible to get new unless you have a friend or partner who already hasaccess to what you want. * Most suppliers sell new products to retail stores, you are not a retail store!Retail stores sell everything for full price, most of your sales will be at least25% lower than retail, this leaves you with less room for profit!Now even though the disadvantages seem discouraging, you can make a ton ofmoney selling new stuff! When you sell new you usually have the latest productsthat are being advertised while you sell them, if the competition is selling used orrefurbished stuff the probably have last years models.

So your products areprobably superior.Used products can be great sellers, depending on what you sell. Not everyused product is a good seller and most used products are hard to sell. Becauseevery one wants NEW stuff and used products usually don't come with aguarantee.You need to sell stuff that keeps its value over time. Watches, jewelry, antiquesand collectibles are examples of things that keep their value very well. Usedelectronics and even clothing can also be good sellers, as long as their relativelynew. A camcorder that is only one year old and is in good condition will alwayssell. A 20 year old stereo with scratches and cracks won't.If you are going to sell used products that don't keep their value very well(electronics, shoes, food?) you should sell relatively young products that are goodsellers.

Camcorders, DVD players, MP3 players, designer clothing etc. etc.In other words if you are selling stuff like electronics, clothing, accessories andother stuff that doesn't keep its value very well. You should sell stuff that isrelatively new and is somewhat "hot".If you are going to sell stuff that keeps its value well than sell stuff like watches,jewelry, collectibles, antiques and unique items. Unique items sell good becausethey are interesting and rare, the age sometimes ads to the value just like incollectibles.***

Info Dasar untuk Melangkah Bisnis Waralaba

Info Dasar untuk Melangkah Bisnis Waralaba
Bisnis waralaba tidak mengenal diskriminasi. Pemilik waralaba (franchisor) dalam menyeleksi calon mitra usahanya berpedoman pada keuntungan bersama, tidak berdasarkan SARA. Waralaba adalah bisnis jangka panjang. Keuntungan yang diperoleh digunakan untuk investasi lagi agar merek semakin kuat, untuk riset, dan perbaikan manajemen.

Selama ini ada beberapa alasan yang salah dalam mengembangkan bisnis waralaba. Yakni, mendapat keuntungan dalam waktu cepat, mengatasi kekurangan modal, meraih untung dari franchisee (pembeli waralaba), ingin mendorong produk/jasa yang lemah, dan ingin memuaskan diri sendiri.

Agar niat mencari untung tidak berubah menjadi kerugian, perhatikan hal-hal berikut, seperti diingatkan oleh Ketua Asosiasi Franchise Indonesia (AFI) Anang Sukandar, sebelum menekuni bisnis ini.
1. Menjaga mutu secara konsisten, penampilan bersih, rapi, menyenangkan, dan bergengsi.
2. Memiliki konsep bisnis yang jelas, berpengalaman dalam mengatasi berbagai persoalan yang muncul, dan telah terbukti keberhasilannya.
3. Bisnis mempunyai keunikan tersendiri sehingga tidak dimiliki pesaingnya.
4. Keunggulan itu telah dibakukan secara tertulis, mulai dari pemilihan lokasi, perijinan, analisa bisnis seperti jam operasional, sistem manajemen dan sebagainya.
5. Pemasaran, pelatihan dan pengawasan harus jelas agar mutu tetap terjaga. Itu sebagai bukti dukungan pemilik waralaba pada mitra usahanya.
6. Dengan standar operasi yang ada, ilmu bisa diajarkan dan mudah dipelajari orang lain dengan baik dan benar.
7. Potensi pasar yang besar.
8. Keuntungan pasti diperoleh bila bisnis dijalankan dalam kurun waktu yang telah ditetapkan. Keuntungan itu bukan sesaat, melainkan jangka panjang.
9. Perjanjian bisnis yang jelas, setara antara pihak yang terlibat, saling menguntungkan, dan memiliki dasar hukum yang kuat.

Anang juga mengingatkan, waralaba adalah peluang usaha. Tapi, peluang usaha belum tentu waralaba. Peluang usaha berpotensi dikembangkan menjadi waralaba, namun belum cukup mapan. Pasalnya belum ada keunikan atau terbukti menguntungkan sehingga belum bisa disebut waralaba.

Waralaba Vs Peluang Usaha
Waralaba dan peluang usaha lain. Jika Anda ingin mengetahui perbedaannya, simak apa yang diutarakan oleh Burang Riyadi, konsultan bisnis waralaba. Ciri utama bisnis waralaba adalah kesempatan mandiri, dukungan pemasaran, kesempatan menggunakan nama dan jaringan, dan dilandasi perjanjian.

Sementara business opportunity (peluang usaha) berciri-ciri kesempatan mandiri, dukungan suplai produk dan jasa, tidak perlu menggunakan nama dagang, dan lebih fleksibel. Keuntungan bisnis waralaba adalah proses belajar singkat, menggunakan nama usaha yang terkenal, mendapat bantuan memulai usaha, jaminan suplai dan dukungan usaha lain, serta kekuatan dalam kegiatan promosi yang efisien.

Peluang usaha memberikan keuntungan dalam hal tujuan melaksanakan usaha kecil terarah, menggunakan metode usaha yang dikenal, mendapat bantuan memulai usaha, dan jaminan suplai dan dukungan usaha lain.

Dari sisi kerugian, sejumlah hal bisa disebutkan di sini bila Anda memilih bisnis waralaba. Di antaranya, meski usaha milik sendiri, kebijakan umumnya masih ditentukan oleh franchisor (penjual waralaba), dan untuk membentuk sistem yang baku, perlu proses yang birokratis. Sedangkan kerugian dari peluang usaha adalah transaksi biasanya putus, kebijakan penjual peluang usaha tidak selalu disampaikan kepada pembeli peluang usaha secara kontinyu, dan perlu kreativitas dan pemahaman sendiri dalam segi manajemen usaha.***

To Make Money Online Requires Tremendous Time and Energy

I am really trying hard to keep balance in my life with my new home-based internet marketing business. It has been hard, because I am also teaching piano full-time from my home! Having over 60 students(half-hoursessions), it becomes hard to fit in everything that I need to do in a 24 hour period.I am finding myself driven to work in my online business for several hours a day when I am not teaching. It seems as though posting on Craigs List is MUCH more important than doing the wash, vacuuming, or taking my dog Bella out for a long walk.

Having a successful online business takes work,drive,desire,motivation, and most of all, it takes time. I do think, however, that if our lives go out of balance because of the all-consuming home-based business, that we will run into problems. It has been a month now since starting my online business and my life is still out of balance.

I have not been excercising, my eating is poor, and things that are normally a priority for me have been put on the back burner. I decided this evening that I will find a return to balance in my life starting tomorrow. I will do it slowly, because trying to return to balance too fast will put me out of balance again!

I Want To Make Money Online!! Help!

Yes.. I also want to make money online too. I started to work from home about ten years ago as a piano teacher and I have not looked back since. And now my goal is to make money online as an internet marketer. I honestly have to say this this is one of the hardest things that I have ever done in my entire life!
First of all, the competition for business is huge!! There are thousands of people trying to sell their products and services on the internet just as we are.

How on earth, with all of this competition do we get noticed? You do not want to be one automobile on I 95, because chances are, your will not be seen. So how can people find us without spending a whole lot of money? This is what internet marketing is all about. It is learning how to market your product or service on the internet so that people will find you. If you have your own home based business and are trying to sell your product or service, you MUST know how to market. If you do not learn how to do this effectively, you will more than likely become one of those statistics of people who fail or give up.

I personally tend to think, however that more people are giving up than failing! I am learning how to market in two of the programs that I currently sponsor and I am spending A LOT of time learning how to get myself seen out there in cyberspace. Writing, like I am doing now is a very big plus (both blog and article marketing). In addition, find out about the forums and classified ads that can submit you to all of the major search engines such as google and yahoo.

It will take time, however, you WILL make money online if you learn how to market effectively, stay positive, and stay patient. You will not get rich overnight, however, slow and steady wins the race! Good luck!! ***
