100% Online Business?
So I get asked a lot- “How is it possible to run a business 100% online?”
Usually, I get asked this through a private message, or comment on the new Life Fulfillment Mentorship Page. It’s one of the best questions to ask. As a matter of fact, it was the first question I asked when I decided to make an online business my initial Career that would launch my future dreams (Publishing books, finishing a 2nd college degree, and becoming a public speaker).
In the words of one of my most favorite professors,
“We live in a digital world, and it’s only going to advance in that direction, exponentially. The most ‘advanced’ cities, nations, or countries buy over 90% of what they own online, and shipped to their door. No need to spend gas, time, or having to deal with catching a deal or running out of stock that was due to a physical store not ordering enough of a certain product. That’s another thing, in a physical store, it’s always spending on inventory, rent, electricity,etc. This will always cost over $100,000 or even millions if you’re a large corporation.
Today, in online modern business, you understand that creativity is #1. Being yourself is the most valuable asset to anything created. Best of all, you go from investing millions, to only a few bucks if you educate yourself enough. Technology can never replace creativity. Creativity prospers technology. If what you do can be replicated with a certain program, consider your job in jeopardy within the next 5-15 years. As a matter of fact, many of my friends had to get their PhD’s due to Secretaries no longer being needed in certain academic establishments, businesses, and employment positions that were available while they were earning that particular degree. For example, a high school principle can now search through a cloud database for any information they need on a particular student, in their comfortable chair, and instantly.
This does cause unemployment, but then again, we are an evolving society. We are also turning into a world of instant gratification. If we have to wait on someone else, we get impatient. If the papers they fetch are incorrect, we get upset. If we can do it ourselves, we’re happy and satisfied at the ease of speed and accuracy.
Personally, I had to attain 2 PhD’s to be here in front of you all right now, because the world changes. If I did not change WITH the world, I would be unemployed and miserable. But I have a family to take care of, so I educated myself, and got a second PhD in informing you all at the serious level this needs to be taken- if you do not apply technology or systems along with your human touch of creativity, the world of tomorrow will not employ you within the next decade or so. This is not a warning, nor a scary story. It is reality, and I lost many jobs because someone else wrote a program that did what I had done. Now, let’s continue on with the chapter…”
That’s my professors take on the matter. Sounds scary, doesn’t it? But it is true. Now here is my view:
I buy almost 95% of what I need to live with online. The only thing I buy at a physical store is food. Yes, it’s able to be purchased online, but the fact that food has to be timely shipped, fresh, and has an expiration date- it would cause my groceries to go from $20-50/wk into the thousands a month. So anything else, just like you, I buy online.
We both buy books online
We have memberships to movies online (Netflix, Hulu, etc.)
You are reading this online
We read reviews on something we want to buy online
We love getting things shipped to our door that was bought online
Over 87% of people LOVE online shopping due to customer satisfaction and how easy it is to return something if they didn’t enjoy it. Consider this against trying to get a refund at the store and you cannot simply due to, “You opened the box.”
You found this blog through my facebook, twitter, maybe even YouTube or Google Search- all which are online
The personal touch of a business, such as ChallengeToLive, creates a real relationship. As long as I’m alive, I’d love to help you in fitness, life fulfillment, income increase, or all three plus more. Compare that to a store where you’re just a customer, and you’re dealing with a different person every time.
So what do you think? I love going to places in person that cannot be replaced online. Restaurants, acting theaters, live concerts. But notice that the people who work there have to be themselves, or at least to a certain degree. Don’t you love it when you see someone being themselves, happy with what they do, and it’s a unique experience every time? Those physical business will be around for quite some time. And online- you can literally run a global business within a few weeks by being who you were meant to be. I invite you to give the Life Fulfillment Mentorship Program a try. Better yet, I promise your life will grow and you’ll find yourself a new positive chapter in life! I await to see your name in the application list. And, as always, with your health & success guaranteed,
