Hello everyone I want to speak about the reason I joined this great well put together program. You see like I mentioned in several posts before I have always wanted to be a entrepreneur for quite some time.
I took a college course on business and had a few ideas with offline businesses, but I could never get the funding for any of my ideas with the different companies that I tried in the past on getting funding for my business, but they all said even though your business plan has potential it's still too risky for our company to Fund your business with me having no experience.
So I became very frustrated and decided to try something new. Fast forward to now and I'm trying to do what it takes with a online type of business. But when I was focus on launching my ideas with a offline business, my business plan was well written and planned to open a Arcade and a Sports bar type of business. For those of you who never heard of a business called Dave and Buster's, this was the type of business that I tried to open in the small town where I live because that type of business is not available where I'm from.

But the funding cost was close to 1 Million dollars with a location and renovation and inventory and starting capital you know all the things that's involved with starting a offline business. Yet this plan did not work so now joining wealthy affiliate I realized I can have a successful online business with very low cost , no inventory, no expenses and all of that outrageous prices that comes with a offline business.
And my plan from day one is not to come up with some random niche but to form a idea that's going to be a well established online store from scratch. I got into a brief discussion earlier today with a member and I didn't like the way he came off with some of the things he was saying about my website. He said my website looks too broad and that my latest Posts didn't have anything to do with my niche. So I told him my website is based on selling Clothing Shoe's and accessories and who are you to criticize what I'm doing.
He thought I was just strictly talking about selling Clothing and shoes, he obviously didn't read everything I said which was selling Clothing, Shoe's, and accessories, with Accessories meaning bringing more to the table and being versatile to attract my audience, and if that's too broad so be it because I didn't come here to just promote a niche but to form a legitimate online store, Now don't get me wrong community I'm not disrespecting anyone or there ideas on a niche, I just feel I'm looking at the idea from a bigger picture.
I want to open a E-commerce online business In the future that's my plan, but I want to see if I can make it as a affiliate marketer first do to not having a budget yet for a E-COMMERCE business, and at the same time I'm still willing to go through the training just like everyone else because I'm eager to learn what it takes to be successful online as well as being a smart successful entrepreneur so I hope everyone enjoys reading this Thanks and Take Care!
