I suspect that far too many people fall into the trap of thinking that online jobs work from home is easier to start and run than offline work. It is possible that online work could require less money upfront to start but I’m not convinced less work is an option unless you have that so-called magic selling product.
Online Work
Most people starting out with online work probably do not fully understand what they are getting involved with. They understand the internet, and that they can pretty much access the world from their PC. So then maybe it is true that if one starts an online work by setting up a website then the whole world will see it and buy from it - Right?
Offline Work
Next, your offline work needs a product or service to sell. People are not really likely to just stop by and drop off money without getting something in return. Online work needs a product or service to sell also. The opportunity itself is not a product. Direct marketing used this same work model they sold products as well as offering an opportunity for one to make an income-generating work.
Need a Website to Promote
Ok, so now we’re legal and have our work started with a good product or service offered. Does the money flow begin now? Not really, since very few people will know that your work exists. You’ll need to do some advertising to make people aware of your work. Online work is very similar. You’re going to need to promote your website so that others will know you are out there.
Growth Rate
As your offline work begins to grow, you’ll find the need to bring on other resources to assist with the additional work. You may also outgrow your space or need space with better accessibility for more people. Online work will also require more resources as it grows. More often the needs of online work are digital or electronic versus the physical needs of offline work. However, most of these electronic products or services have associated costs.
Final Words
The point of this comparison is simply that online work does not simply succeed overnight. Sure, there are always exceptions, but most new workes take time and effort to succeed. If anyone tells you differently, then be careful! Don’t be too quick to pull out the credit card. Online work can be very rewarding just as offline work is for many people. Just be realistic as you approach it. You are free to copy this article to your site as long as you include the following resource information with an active link to my site:
