In this episode we’re talking about the top 3 myths WOC struggle with in starting an
online business.
Here we go …
Myth#1: You need a lot of money to start your online business
This is a myth that stops so many WOC to take the leap of starting an online business.
Sure you need some money to start your business, but in reality you can start any
business with as much or as little money as you want. In many cases a large investment
in the beginning may not be a good idea. Starting small will give you the chance to test
your idea, perfect it, and scale as you grow.
So before you let this myth paralyze you, allow yourself to just go ahead and work on
your business. Don’t worry about the money just yet. No amount of money will help
you if you don’t have a viable business idea. Work on that dream for now and watch the
possibilities show up in your life.
Myth#2: You need to know everything about running an online business
Starting and running your online business will give you the opportunity to be
resourceful, maximize your existing skills and acquire some new ones. But that’s no
different than what you’ve been doing all your life!
For example think about your current role, did you know everything about the job on
day one? Likely not! But you didn’t let that stop you. Running your online business will
not be any different. You will acquire the necessary knowledge and skills to increase
your confidence as an online business owner. And for those skills that you don’t have
the time to master, you can always outsource for a small fee.
So before you let this myth stop you, allow yourself to visualize your dream business
and get a clear picture of what it would look like. This process will help you understand
some of the things that you are comfortable doing, the tasks that you need to refresh on
and the tasks that you’ll need to outsource.
Myth#3: You have to wait for the right time to start your online business
This is a myth that stops so many WOC to prioritize their business.
When it comes to starting a business there’s never the right time!
Waiting for the “right time” may never happen. If you have the desire and the vision,
NOW is the right time! Use this as an indicator to propel you forward to launch your
online business.
Now that we’ve busted these myths, what steps are you going to take to making your
online business happen?
