The Internet Entrepreneur Chronicles I

The Last Bastion for Free Thought

There is a great tug of war going on in society. The polarizing effects of our banking institutions has brought it to the fore front. Todays global economy can effect everything. Not only our banking systems, but our very way of life.

Entrepreneurialism is founded on the premise of free thinking individuals. Merit, success, hard work and individual prosperity is rewarded to those who maintain focus and discipline creating a venture that benefits all and the belief in unlimited wealth. That is the essence of Capitalism. Capitalism allows free enterprise to take place and businesses to flourish. It's value is simply based on one thing, the free voluntary judgment of the consumer. Capitalism offers the freedom of choice.

There has been a slow erosion of Capitalism, a shift towards a more all inclusive system that "shares the wealth". The premise is based on the fact that there is a limited amount of wealth to be shared in the world. It must be equally divided thus the work be equally divided. There is no penalty for not meeting the minimum requirement and no reward for individual merit. The mere idea of "shared wealth" minimizes the reward to the hard worker and encourages a dulling of creativity. Now, if you were offered a job that told you no matter what you do, you get paid. You don't get paid more or less than anyone else. There is no additional pay for overtime, but you receive your benefits like everyone else. Sounds secure doesn't it, sounds like an easy way to earn a paycheck. Sounds like Socialism.

Socialism is a utopian ideal that kills free enterprise. It stifles creativity and the entrepreneurial spirit. In Americas's Silicon Valley there were no new IPO's for the second quarter in what was once America's second industrial revolution. There was only One new IPO in the third quarter. Clearly there is a slow down in the economic growth to put it mildly. Complicated tax codes and bureaucratic penalties for doing business in the United States has forced many Industries to outsource or outright leave for kinder shores.

The Internet is the last bastion for the free thinker, the maverick, the maker of dreams that is the Entrepreneur. It is untouched by the bureaucracies of our governments. It offers unlimited wealth for those who are disciplined and work to create innovative opportunities. It reaches every country, every shore, every nook and cranny where the free thinker may exist. Every day, a new dreamer is born ready to live the dream that we here in America created in 1776. The world is a much smaller place with the innovation of the Internet; we don't know where the next Einstein, Alexander Graham Bell, Thomas Edison or Bill Gates will crop up. But as long as the Internet remains the realm of the Entrepreneur, they will be found, cultivated and grown. Capitalism is the hope and dream of many around the world searching for freedom. Wealth and prosperity for the individual IS possible as long as we keep this beacon of light burning strong.

The Beacon of Light

Written by Corie Wallace - Marketing Strategy Specialist

Have You Ever Seen the Face of God?

I have. I am one of the lucky few. He did not show himself to me in an image of Fire or an image of a Mighty Man. He showed himself as the lamb. In the image of a man in a wheel chair. A man in a wheel chair with cerebral palsy. A man left abandoned hoping that a stranger would offer him help.

His will was strong, you could sense the fire within his soul, you could sense his mighty power, it was only his body that had betrayed him. He asked each person as they walked by for assistance and aid, all ignored him, shunned him, and looked the other way. He did not waiver. He remained steadfast.

Finally, a blessed woman stopped to listen although her friend tried unsuccessfully to have her move on. Her dark skin glowed around her face as if she wore a halo. She was to be his guardian angel. He told her of his plight. He had been dropped off by an assistance vehicle service in the wrong area. The driver did not pay attention to the address and simply left him. He was lost and alone. This angel of a woman, armed with her cell phone took action. He provided the number to the service and his id code and she listened, called and demanded they return immediately and drive him to his correct destination.

She stayed with him until he was safely on his way.

She had been tested and deemed worthy.

The scene played out before me. As I sat there, I became filled with a sense of overwhelming peace. I said to myself "so shines a good deed in a weary world". I walked passed the woman and told her "God bless you Angel". I have been changed ever since. There is a sweet smell in the air, the sky is bluer, the clouds are puffier and whiter, the sun shines brighter.

See, I was meant to witness this act. I was outside in that spot for 15 minutes only never to return there for the rest of the day. A portal, a window in time. I know now that our humanity is not lost, that it does still exist.

Why do I share this story?

For I vow, if you reach out, I will be there.

If you fall, I will catch you.

You have a choice who you do business with, how you conduct yourself, who you work with, who you spend your time with.

If you choose me, I will care, make you proud, help you succeed and grow.

That is my shinning good deed in a weary world and my promise to you.

Buying a Business Safeguards

Buying the wrong business for you.

Whether you plan to be a hands-on owner or hire managers to do the bulk of the work, most entrepreneurs need a business that suits their skills, knowledge, interests, and personality. Otherwise, the business may not be successful.

Signing contracts or agreements in your own name. Do not put contracts, loan agreements, or the lease in your name. You need to have or set up a corporation or LLC to buy the business, since you don't want to subject your personal assets to the risks of the business.

Not doing proper due diligence.

Just because a business appears to be successful, and even shows a profit, does not mean that it is not without problems. You need to find out exactly what is owned, borrowed, leased, and owed. You don't want to get saddled with a pile of bills, unpaid vendors, rent due, and other outstanding debt.

Not knowing why the business is being sold.

A business owner may simply say that he's retiring. However, he may know that a competitive superstore has purchased the property across the street. Determine why the business is up for sale and what the business environment will be like once you take over.

Ignoring the company image.

Most businesses have established an image or a brand over the years. Customers are familiar with this and changing it quickly can be self-defeating, since this image may be integral to the value of the business.

Not having a favorable purchase contract.

Not unlike buying a home, you will need to negotiate details regarding the acquisition. From physical concerns regarding the property, to assets, intellectual property such as trademarks, stock, and outstanding bills, you need to define in the contract who is responsible in each area and exactly when and how the responsibility shifts from the seller to you as the buyer. It would be wise to consult an experienced corporate lawyer. \

Overextending yourself financially.

A common mistake is going into serious debt when buying a business. You are better off either waiting until you have sufficient funds to purchase without significant debt or putting together a buying team.

Making drastic internal changes.

The time in which it takes to train a new staff can cost you money and drain your reserves. Often, the current employees are the most familiar with the internal workings of the company.

Not promoting the business.

It is a big mistake to assume that since the business is already established that it will simply promote itself. Even if the business has a solid base of steady customers, you need to immediately establish a comprehensive advertising and marketing plan.

Not knowing the value of the business.

Buyers have to do a detailed financial analysis of the business to determine the appropriate price to pay. This includes reviewing income and loss statements, balance sheets, key assets, contingent and actual liabilities, and cash flow statements. You may find that it is more cost-effective to start from the ground floor with a brand new business.

ItsGoodBusiness.net is by far one of the best business to buy now on Google. Tom Prendergast, CEO of Inetekk and owner of the ItsGoodBusiness.net business plan, has spent painstaking hours in the formulation of the perfect business plan on the Internet today. All the pieces are laid into place for making this a substantial Google business.

Following the ItsGoodBusiness.net business model is simple and cost effective.

Buy an Internet business that will stand the test of time.
Here's the bad news if you're planning to buy a business: According to industry statistics, over 90% of the people who begin the search to buy a business fail to ever complete a purchase. Even worse, the average person looks at business for sale listings for 18 months and still, they never buy one! What a monumental waste of time!
Part of the problem is that most businesses listed for sale are overpriced and have plenty of problems. Buying a business is a major undertaking. There's a lot at stake. This is one decision you must get right the first time. If not, the consequences will be enormous!
Why so many failures? There were several common reasons given by those who failed to realize their dream of business ownership, or worse, ended up buying a bad business. Most were first-time buyers and they admitted to having totally underestimated just how much was involved with each stage of the buying process. They felt overwhelmed and ill-equipped to handle all of the new situations and major decisions they encountered.
If you're going to buy a business, the old expression - "If you fail to prepare then be prepared to fail" - is so true.
The business you buy will determine your financial future: buy a good one and the rewards will be incredible! But don't take anything for granted. You cannot guess your way to success. It takes "know how" to be successful in this endeavor. When you have the right information, it's easy to make good decisions. But without the knowledge, you'll end up buying the wrong business!
There is some good news: 82% of the people who follow our program and use our free ongoing consulting buy the right business within six months. You'll soon read some of their incredible stories.
Before you invest your savings to buy a business shouldn't you first learn how to buy the right one?
Buy a business where your ROI is going to prove fruitful over the coming years. Most people buy an Internet business based solely on emotion. Its important to consider the business plan, the business objectives and every conceivable element that the business model has to offer.
ItsGoodBusiness.net has all the business plans in place. From search engine optimized positions, highly sophisticated sales teams, motivated and caring customer support and all the essential elements are locked into place for people looking to buy a lucrative and sustaining business on Google for the long term.
There are no get rich quick businesses for sale on Google that work. ItsGoodBusiness.net is a get rich slow business plan. Look at buying this business as a realtime investment into your future.
