Big, bigger, biggest — are you overwhelmed by competition online?
If you’re overwhelmed by competition online, relax. Here’s the best quote I’ve heard all year:
“Selling on the Internet is like fishing in the ocean. There are enough fish out there for a lot of folks. You don’t have to catch all the fish; you just need enough to feed you and yours.”
This point is made by Rob Snell in his book Starting A Yahoo Business For Dummies.
You don’t have to be big to do well online. You don’t even have to have ambitions to become big, in fact many people recommend staying small — less hassle, less angst, less risk.
Whether you’re starting out online, or have been selling online for years, remember that the online world is vast, and expanding every day. As the online business world expands, it creates even more opportunities.
Get fishing! And if you want a bigger net, contact me for marketing and copywriting help. (Smile.)
