Make a Business Plan

The first thing you need to do before starting your business is to create a business plan. This document will outline your business goals, strategies, and how you plan on achieving them. Without a business plan, it will be very difficult to make your business successful.

 In this blog post, I am going to be sharing some of Kev's journal notes, and behind the scene capturing thoughts on how you can find your mission and that driver which keeps you inspired, how do you be motivated, how do you stay motivated to take massive action through the difficult times, the successful times, and always pull towards that greater vision. 

There are a lot of people in jobs they don't like, or they are training towards becoming these roles, and it's not really what they want to do, but they are settling. 

There is a 5 step exercise to find your life mission, and in this blog post, I am going to be sharing these 5 with you!

Vision

It all starts with the vision which you have got for yourself. Some people want to be free to travel, and some don't. You need to decide what that vision is for you. Some people just want to be a nice small family, nothing major, and go to their 9-5 job, come home, and have dinner with their family. That is what the vision...

So, let's start.

1. Goal Setting & Ultimate Visions 

Before 2015, Kev never really set goals in his life. Kev always had traditional goals in his life, like doing well in his career, having a loving and healthy family, and going on holidays. But, he never had any other types of goals - he never really explored goal setting. One of the reasons for this is growing up, not having any luxuries or any money, Kev came from a council estate, he started having limiting beliefs and ideas of the world of what you can and can't do. 

You should set ultimate goals and ultimate visions of what you want to achieve in life. Forget the circumstances, the resources and where you are from, we all start at different situations, and we all have...

One of the first things Kev asked himself back in 2015 was: "How are big businesses, organisations and cooperations able to operate at scale?" "How are they able to have genuinely 10s of thousands of employees?"

It was one of the questions, which really made Kev get thinking about, if one day he had a business which is operating at scale, how is this actually going to be achievable? And one of the things Kev started to really think about was, when he starts to hire one team member, he can spend time with that member, and he can help that team member develop, grow, teach, learn and develop their expertise and their experience and competence. But, what happens if he then has 10 team members? Is Kev going to be able to spend all the time and hours trying to teach individuals and team members on how to do a specific task. And that's when Kev learnt the biggest takeaway, which I am going to share with you in this blog post. This is, we as business owners and entrepreneurs, we don't...

In this blog post, we will share with you at least 6 other online business models which you could build alongside Amazon FBA. 

These online business models are fantastic opportunities which you may want to consider. The reason we say, “alongside Amazon FBA” is not because of shiny object syndrome, it is simply about thinking long-term.

Whatever you are doing right now, taking advantage of Amazon FBA is fantastic - to be able to start your own business by utilising them is incredible. 

However… We always want to consider long-term - thinking 5 - 10 years ahead.

In this blog, we will go through 5 hard truths why people fail with online business. These are supposed to be hard and hard to listen to, so if it causes you to go through some emotion and self-reflection, knowing that some of these imply to you, do not take it personally - take this as an opportunity to change and improve for the better. Anyone can easily fall into these traps, but acknowledging that you have or you possibly are going to is a great way to get out of this as soon as you can and to improve. 

False Expectation 

Some people think that the truth and the experience should have happened sooner, asking themselves, “Why did this not happen yesterday?” Why is it not happening within a month?” “Why isn’t it happening within six months?”

If you are going to be successful - when you are going to be successful, you must know that it is going to take time, whether that is 1 year, 2 years, or even 5 years. Because the truth is, to...

Sometimes hard, honest truths need to be said so that you are able to grow and expand ourselves beyond and above our comfort zones. And that is why, in this post, we need to be brutally honest with some of the hard truths Kev believes are some of the reasons why people fail to 100% automate online arbitrage. Difficult conversations need to be had, as a leader of your business and as someone who is wanting to take life on, you are going to be uncomfortable and you will need to make choices; you’re going to be in a position where people are looking at you, wondering where they are going and what is happening. You are going to have to make difficult choices and the one who has to be there to hand the notice in and have that difficult conversation - being there with the family, saying: “I can’t do that, I’m working today!” You have to be the one to get into those uncomfortable positions, to get to where you want to be.

Some People Just Simply Do Not...

The goal of this blog post is to encourage emotion and to help you understand why you may be struggling to build a successful business, so that you are able to pursue and continue on the right track, so that you have the freedom and independence to be able to do what you want and focus on what you want to. Maybe you want location independence and you want to be free to travel the world or maybe you just want to be financially free and no longer be unable to afford something which you really want. This is the potential of an online business. So, let's talk about some of the reasons you may not be succeeding so that you are able to achieve these things.

1 – Not Open 

 It is the most fundamental, they are not open to an opportunity. They are not open to believe that an online business is even a possibility.  

When Kev started his online business while he was an engineer, he was motivated and inspired and every night he was making...
