The #1 Reason People Haven’t Started Their Own Online Business?

They don’t know what they don’t know – so they can’t be sure they’re even asking the right questions to solve their problems.

These days it’s no exaggeration to say that millions of people want to start an online business.

Because they are already aware of the advantages:

⁃ supplemental income while building your online business and still working 9-to-5
⁃ the very real prospect of eventually replacing your existing job’s income
⁃ complete control over future increases in your income
⁃ spend more time with your family and doing things that bring you happiness
⁃ money independent from a job, from energy draining co-workers, and bosses
⁃ total portability of your income, independent of your location
⁃ freedom from financial scarcity and all the compromises it demands
⁃ sustainable cash flow throughout a long retirement

And those advantages aren’t hype. Millions of people are enjoying those benefits right now.

We’ve lived entirely from online income for about twenty years, first raising a family in Idaho and more recently while traveling the world together.

Online income really does deliver a lifestyle of freedom. And that can be a pretty intoxicating feeling.

Once you’re free, you begin to understand all the ways you used to be constrained. It’s something you have to experience to really understand.

Still, millions of people want to get started but haven’t.

So . . . we asked them why?

We Asked Thousands of Subscribers

We surveyed our subscribers and discovered – on average – they have delayed starting for eight years. Eight years!

Why?

The Top 6 answers they gave us for what has prevented them from getting started building their own online business:

A) Can’t decide what business to build
B) Can’t find time to devote to the project
C) Can’t find a match between their interests/values and a profitable online niche
D) Can’t find a niche/idea that isn’t already saturated
E) Don’t know whether my idea would make any money
F) Can’t get honest, credible advice about online businesses

Those are all completely legitimate concerns. But they aren’t really about time, or money, or even procrastination.

These concerns are all about having the information needed in order to have confidence to move forward.

You Just Need the Truth About How It All Works and What It Requires

Let’s take a closer look at those Top 5 obstacles that people perceive.

A) Can’t decide what business to build.

The truth is there is an embarrassment of very good choices. And many people get the rare opportunity of starting from a clean sheet of paper so they can deliberately choose an online business that involves something they are enthusiastic about.

But most of the indecision comes from not knowing enough about the nuts and bolts of how a chosen business would operate. Is it good for an introvert? What does the day to day work involve? How long does it take to make money?

Some of those answers can be dealbreakers. Some answers are encouraging and motivating. When you can get all the answers you need, it’s pretty easy to decide what business to build.

B) Can’t find time to devote to the project.

Online businesses have a wonderful characteristic that brick and mortar businesses can never match; they can be built piecemeal.

A person starting a coffee shop can’t sign a lease on a location this month, then wait three months until he buys tables and chairs, then wait a few more weeks until has has his signs made. The expenses would drown him.

But any online business can be built using whatever time you have – or make – during the week. They are so inexpensive to create and maintain that fixed costs are in the tens of dollars, not even the hundreds.

All of that is to say, it really doesn’t matter how fast you build it – two months, or two years – and all of that becomes clear when you know the actual roadmap that you’re following.

In the abstract people think they don’t have time. When they know the specifics they can make a practical plan that works, no matter how busy they are.

C) Can’t find a match between their interests/values and a profitable online niche

There are two things to know about this issue. One is that it is not a prerequisite that you must do something you “feel passionate” about in order to succeed online.

A person could make a great living selling outdoor patio furniture with a dropshipping store without even having their own home or caring much about furniture. The same goes for an affiliate site that focused on boating.

The second thing to know is that building an online business can be many people’s best shot at living their dreamlife of being immersed in something they really like.

In our videos we show examples of this using travel, being an expat, and loving a particular dog breed. But it’s no exaggeration to say there are hundreds of possibilities. For example, most of us can’t be professional musicians or athletes, but we can run an online business that is all about music or a sport.

This is just another instance of needing more information about options so that a person has confidence that she is choosing an online business that is a great match for her, and she can see for a fact that this type of business can make her all the money she needs.

D) Can’t find a niche/idea that isn’t already saturated.

There is another big advantage in the online world of business; there is enormous transparency. Using some simple tools it’s possible to see the value of any niche, sub-niche, or even individual websites.

That means that before spending time and money on a project you can research and investigate whether it’s something that is already working for people like you.

Plus the online economy reaches into the trillions of dollars annually and is growing faster than any country’s economy. So ‘being saturated’ is rarely a problem anyway.

Because so much online traffic and commerce is transparent, you can be certain you are choosing something that will make you the money you need to make.

E) Don’t know whether my idea would make any money

Here’s another place where the transparency of the online world works to your benefit. By analyzing the keyword phrases related to a product or service – no matter what it is – it’s possible to investigate the financial viability of any idea a person has.

Seeing the financial value of your idea in black and white is what gives you the motivation to move forward.

It’s also fairly easy to perform excellent competitor analysis to see what others are doing in that niche and how you could add your own tweaks and refinements.

F) Can’t get honest, credible advice about online businesses

The truth is, the vast majority of people offering online business tools and information are honest. It’s hard to stay in business if you aren’t.

The real issue is the natural bias that comes with people who have specific business models to sell or help you with.

– a company offering to help you be a Freelancer might not tell you it’s not a good choice for people who “hate dealing with other people” or who don’t cope well with uncertainty about income fluctuations.

– a company offering some Ecommerce businesses might not tell you upfront that you’ll need a lot of capital to purchase and store your products.

– a company offering to help you make ‘passive income’ with an Affiliate site might not emphasize how long it takes before you see serious money and how much content you’ll need to create.

– not to mention all the companies selling ‘sales funnels,’ ‘social media retargeting tools,’ and ‘email opt-in tactics’ that you don’t even need until you’re seeing some actual cashflow.

At SafelyLeaveTheRatRace we aren’t in the business of trying to shoehorn everyone into the same business model in the same niche.

We’ll help you with any online business you want to have. So we’ll tell you to pros and cons, and the truth about the work involved and how long it takes to grow into a cash cow.

As it says at the top of our website, We Help You Choose, Build and Scale Your First Online Business.

We have experience with every one of the six proven models and we have no bias about which one you choose – because we know there is no ‘one size fits all’ answer. What’s perfect for one person would be a bad choice for another.

That’s the real truth and we aren’t afraid to say it.

These Videos Have The Exact Information You Need

If you’ve been looking for truth, candor, and an objective explanation of how people are making money online and what type of business would be right for you, then you’ll want these new videos.

In each type of online business we tell you How it Operates, show you Variations & Examples, candidly discuss the Advantages and Disadvantages, What it Requires From You, and the Secrets to Success.

And we use our twenty years of experience to show you what’s behind the curtain in terms of how these businesses make money, get traffic, and flourish.

This is how you discover what type of online business is really best for you and your personality, skills, experience, and interests.

FREELANCE MODEL (Also called ‘Gig Work’): This is the single fastest growing employment sector in North America, Europe, and Asia. For most people, it’s the #1 fastest way to start making money online.

It’s also the least expensive online business model to set up. In fact, it often cost exactly zero to get started and start earning. It’s not for everyone, but if you have the right mindset, temperament, and work ethic you can not only make good money, you can make great money.

EXPERT MODEL (Also called Coaching or Consulting): This is the other fast track to online income – for people who have an existing skill, knowledge, or profession that permits them to find a ready clientele.

Even for the people who don’t easily see themselves as an ‘expert’ at anything, this model has the potential to find sub-niches where your life experience can be monetized. It can also be one of the most rewarding and satisfying models because you directly help clients or customers.

ECOMMERCE MODEL (Including Dropshipping): This type of business was already growing at a stellar rate – then the pandemic hit and it saw ten years of adoption occur in four months. Now more than ever, millions of people are shopping and buying online because they’ve learned how easy and convenient it is.

This model also has the advantage of allowing an owner to stay in the background and not be the face of the business. Nice for introverts.

AFFILIATE MODEL (Also called ‘Passive Income’): This is an easy model to understand because it’s actually been used for centuries. It can be very lucrative and it can scale into the stratosphere using outsourcing.

However the term ‘passive income’ is a bit misleading – this type of business requires just as much work as any of the others. But this is another place where the owner can be virtually anonymous and have no contact with customers because there really are no customers.

MARKETPLACE MODEL (Also called ‘Influencer’ or ‘Community’): This model takes full advantage of one of the most powerful aspects of the online world – the ability to drawn people together despite physical distance.

When you can combine that aspect with building a marketplace or community with a focus on something you personally value and want to be part of, it can be the best opportunity you’ll ever get to immerse yourself in what you define as your dream life.

MEMBERSHIP MODEL (Also called ‘Recurring Revenue’ Model): Often a hybrid of two or more of these models, Membership can deliver all of the advantages of most others and combine them with the peace of mind that comes from recurring billings for an ongoing value you create.

It’s also another opportunity to create a business centered around something meaningful and fulfilling to you personally. By focusing on a tight sub-sub-niche, it can be possible to make a very nice income from just a few hundred members.
