Why Owning Your Own Internet Business Right Now Is a Good Thing

Andy Jacob, CEO of a world renowned Internet traffic monitoring company (leadpile.com) has said, "a market of young super Internet consumers will be utilising the Internet in all parts of their lives by 2012. They will be unlike any consumer in U.S. history". This statement comes from his prediction that by the year 2010, the online commerce (e-commerce) market will be a 1 trillion dollar industry.

Successful people position themselves in front of future trends. Furthermore, THE FACT'S are telling us that the Internet industry isn't slowing down... in fact, it has only just started to begin!

The point is... the pie is definitely up for grabs and. It's up to you to decide whether you would like a piece of it...

Many people that were starting an Internet based business found it difficult to achieve the success that they aim for not because they don't have the drive, desire or commitment to succeed. In fact, this group of people singularly represent the highest percentage of human ambition achievement across the board ... i.e. Bill Gates (Microsoft), Michael Dell (Dell Computers), Steve Jobs (Apple), etc, all started from their garage/bedroom corner...

Through personal experience, I have found that one "time" problem area that limits business and revenue development for this group of people is the pre-misconception they have over the power of the Internet.

Here's what most would classify as their main problems:

I need the best technology to run my business...

But, it's to expensive to me right now...

The technology is beyond reach...

I don't know how to use technology...

I don't know who I can trust to help me...

I find it difficult to get people to visit my website...

No one comes to my website...

I can't do it...

Most people are scared of the word "technology". This is why I seldom talk to clients about technology (although, I assure you that we at IITIS do a lot of research and are kept up-to-date with it). More importantly, people are constantly looking for "solutions" that work for them.

One clear cut way to solve your technology frailty is to let the "technology expert" worry about the technology side of your business so that you can focus on the business side of your business. That is why most people starting an Internet based business need to partner with a "technology expert" so that their well planned Internet business idea will not tumble like yesterday. More importantly, people need to partner with a bloody damn good one! Without one, it is the same as building a house without a professional builder and an architect.

Matthew Ng (Author) launched, grew and SOLD his first Internet based business before turning the age of 19. The second venture he founded, IITIS ("eye eye tea eye as"), is recognised as Australia's first 24/7 web, print and IT full service agency for micro and small businesses. Over the past two years, this small but growing company has established a vast clientele not only in Australia but in various offshore countries such as the USA, UK, Malaysia, China, etc.
