Before you succeed with yourself or other people it is very important to conquer your mindset and to figure out how to control your emotions when it comes to business, or how to control what you are experiencing and what you’re thinking. If you don’t have it in yourself and haven’t figured out in your own mind that you are entitled to be successful it becomes really difficult for you to have success particularly in a home business but also in anything else. So when we think about getting your mindset in getting successful there are many different ways and many different things out there that we all have been exposed to. A lot of people suggest you go to different seminars to listen to motivational speakers and tapes and also to read. I agree with that because education primarily is going to do you good. It doesn’t hurt to learn more and have experiences.
Getting around successful people.
When I first started out in my first venture in home based business, I used to struggle, spend money on different things losing money, spending it left and right. It always seemed that I was spending a lot more than I was having profit but that made me come to the conclusion that I need to find people that can teach me more than I know. People that know more than I do and have experienced success. These people are the ones that you need to get around take a little of what they know and what they learned. You don’t have to listen to every single word and do every single thing they say. You don’t have to rely on everything they say, but it is important to understand where they’re coming from. You don’t have to agree with everything but the knowledge you get is going to start to register with you. Take some of the ideas in your own way or maybe you just want to duplicate it and do it yourself.
You always hear from people you know and love that “This is a scam; it’s never going to work… or get a real job”. These are people that care about you saying you can’t make money doing that. Why do you think they say such things?
They never made any money
They were scammed before
OR THEY”RE TRYING TO PROTECT YOU
See they think it’s not possible because they’ve never seen it with there own eyes. Those people saying that to you probably have a job; they probably have debts, mortgages on their houses. Yes they may be happy… but are they financially successful?
However if they were informed they would instead ask you what marketing strategy you would be using to promote your business. They’ll ask more questions in terms to try to get you to think instead of trying to beat you down.
I’ve got the mindset of an entrepreneur like you guys do. The reasons I looked for another way to earn money is because I didn’t find the typical nine to five job to be right for me. I wanted leverage, residual income, I wanted to own something, to have unlimited potential and all of those things don’t work in a job but they don’t understand that, because they’ve never been around that.
Save your conversations about your business with people who relate to that. Do not talk to your friends about it unless they ask. People you want to talk are people in your organization, people you’ve enrolled people in forums. They want to talk about your business or business ideas. However you should be careful for those who are negative or those trying to recruit you in their business instead.

How To Find Products?
Finding Hot Selling Products to Sell
In order to locate products that sell online, we need to
understand what people already want to buy. Finding a good
choice of idea or product is always accompanied by interfacing
the demand for the product in the current market and the level
of competition or market share that the product will be having
in the long run.
"What should I sell? What products are hot selling? These are
the questions most people are trying to find an answer in order
for them to make the definite decision. And if we really want to
know the answer to this question, our only choice is to do some
research. There are all kinds of twists along the road that may
lead you to think you have a high-demand idea. We must be able
to understand and satisfy the need, wants and expectations of
our customers on a certain product that they're trying to buy.
This three are called the basic needs or minimum requirements in
a purchase. Needs are the basic reasons or the minimum
requirements consumers are looking for in a product or service.
They are called the qualifying or "gatekeeper" dimensions in
a purchase. Wants are the determining dimensions among many
choices. Expectations, on the other hand, are values or
intangibles associated with a product or service. Expectations
are actually part of "wants" but they become extremely
important when products or services are not differentiated.
For example, in reading a logic book, university students look
for the following: Relevant logic concepts use of simple
language, easy to understand and affordable prices. These
similar ideas can be applied to Internet Sales as well. After
all, the Internet is just another place to sell products. The
basic concept of demand is the same there as it is anywhere
else, and has been all the time.
Now, the second thing that must be considered in finding
"hot" products to sell are the level of competition or the
market shares do your product will have. Market share or level
of competition means the ratio of your brand sales versus the
total market sales. While companies would naturally define its
target competitors, it is actually the consumers who ultimately
decide the competitive frame, or the list related products or
services that consumers consider when exercising their
purchasing power. We must therefore choose the market segment
where we can have a potential leadership or at least a strong
challenger role. Because the overriding objective of getting
into this business is not just to satisfy the needs and wants of
our customers but to do so profitably better than his
competition. Otherwise, our competition will end up satisfying
the customers better than our own interest.
Third factor to be considered in finding hot selling products is
finding out the general interest level about the product. General
interest in a product helps us to gauge where our demand and
competition numbers fall into the big picture. Simply saying, if
there isn't much demand for the product, and there isn't much
competition, it would seem that it might not be good a good put
up for sale. But the research doesn't stop here; there is one
last thing to be considered to exactly find the hot selling
products that you've been looking for. We must also learn how
others are advertising those products. If there are a good
number of them doing so, it may mean that it's a good product
to get into. Coming to the last phase of the process is
analyzing and evaluating all the information that has been
collected. We have to look at all of the data we have collected
on demand, competition, and advertising, and make decision as
how they all balance out.
And here are several factors or aspects that must be measured:
(a) not enough demand means not enough people are going to buy
(b) too much competition means not enough of a profit to go
around
(c) too much advertising drives up the price of pay per
click ads, and competition as well
(d) not enough general interest, combined with low demand,
means there may not be a good market even if there is
competition trying to make the sales.
Just some of the many things to consider when choosing
a program or product to promote.
