Is Making Money Online Easier Than Making Money Offline?

By Russell Howe


If you have heard all of the claims coming from the mouths of internet guru's then you've probably wondered whether you can really make money online as easily as people like to make out.

Of course, not everybody can succeed. Just like any other area of life, there are far more people who try and fail. Despite looking different on the surface, there are many similarities between trying to reach success with an affiliate plan versus trying to operate a small business in your local area. Companies like Empower Network are actually quite similar to offline affiliate programs like Mary Kay when you strip away the online aspect.

The internet is often falsely billed as an instant solution for those who want to build a secondary income. This leads them to fail because of a negative mindset. No matter what medium you try to become your own boss with, you are going to need to work very hard at it to succeed.

Thanks to the creation of the internet, everybody with a computer now has the ability to make a living for themselves in some way. Whether that means becoming an affiliate, creating your own company or turning a pastime into a part time career, there is great potential to be reached by those who are serious about getting results.

But before you get carried away at the prospect of making a living without leaving the house, you need to know that most people who attempt to do this don't succeed. Not everyone grabs the chance to become their own boss.

The old mantra of, 'Success is not given, it is earned' still rings true to this day. Once you get over the fact that your business is based online you are left with exactly the same scenario you'd need to face if you were opening a plumbing business or a sportswear store. There is no quick fix.

Quite simply, it is easy to be misled on the internet and if you are genuinely entertaining the idea of becoming your own boss you need to approach it with the serious mindset you'd adopt if you were going to open a business in your local area. All of the stories you see of real success with affiliate programs are the result of people taking their business seriously, none of them simply got lucky.

Before you get involved with any affiliate plan you must be aware of the fact that success is not guaranteed. In fact, it is more likely that you will fail. In order to make money online you will need to overcome challenges, many of them mental, but if you are persistent you will find that the internet represents a great method to become your own boss.
