Joe Dent is a top internet marketer who likes to make money online.

There are many ads and articles that suggest the most common reasons for home based business failure and why it happens to so many home business owners. Some say to avoid failure you have to have a "secret" or some talent that only the most successful. Do you believe that is the only reason?

Money

Let me tell you a brief story that might change your thinking and get you back on track to making money at home and yes, online!

Example 1: I know of one marketer who didn't have very good English skills who nevertheless made ,000 with his business opportunity after only 3 months in the network marketing business. Sounds crazy, huh? However it is true. Why?

More in a minute, but readon.

Example 2: I'm acquainted with another marketer who is on his way to earning almost $ 500,000 in his 1st year with a 4 year old online business, and he did this primarily with making videos for YouTube. How?

These guys are pleased with their early success but there's something they are not happy about. They know their programs work.

So what did they have that resulted in sales, that so many other new people do not have? Why did they NOT become part of the large number of home based business failures, while so many others using some of the same programs fell short of success and gave up?

There are many reasons people fail in their home businesses, but here are a few that stand out.

1. NO LEADS: You've heard this many times before, but, to survive, muchless thrive in this, or any, business, you've got to learn how to generate leads traffic. No leads, you die; many leads, leads abundance, you succeed. Simple as that!

But lead generation can be costly for the newbie. But free leads are the best strategy for the newbie in the beginning so you are not so worried about advertising costs when you still learning the skills required of the successful home based business network marketer.

2. UNREALISTIC EXPECTATIONS: There are so many pitches that tell you how easy and simple everything is that you will start having sales your first week in business, or be earning $ 15,000 in your first 30 days. Oh, how those "simple" and "easy" claims used to whipping me!

So do some people achieve these phenomenal claims? A few do, of course.Do most? No. Most top earning early achievers have a lot of prior experience in the industry even if it's been "old school" and "offline" using traditional methods such as cold calling, buying lead lists, having hotel meetings, and chasing friends and family. But online marketing newbies haven't had that much experience in generating online leads traffic. For them the early going may not be easy.

3. NO AUTOMATED SYSTEMS: Learning how to set up your program may require more hands on than a newbie has time to give. If you are fortunate in having a system that pretty much closes the sale for you, then you have more time for lead generation as opposed to time consuming lead followup. This is what you should look for when starting out so you can spend all of your time generating leadstraffic.

4. YOU! The main reason people fail is because they look for reasons OUTSIDE of themselves to have success. They're looking for the right program, the right mentor, the right systems, the right tools, training, etc. All of these are essential and important. But If you want to really have the success in your business and the lifestyle you both deserve and desire it is time to stop looking outside of yourself for your results.

The simple reason I say that is because it is YOU, and only you, who creates the success you achieve and the results you produce.

You and only you. No one else! You have to make the decision that failure is not an option, and that you will have success no matter what. You have to decide that you will do, find, learn whatever it be,takes, and for however long it takes, to achieve your specific goals and clear to be a success.

Committing to that one, all important fact significantly reduces your chances of home based business failure.
