LOL! That was innovating I've never heard of those ideas before in the forum LOL! The simple truth is that it isn't easy making money online unless you know what you are doing. Even when you know what you are doing it takes time, effort, patience and most times money to have real steady income.

*puzzled* are people taking this seriously? I thought it was a parody - like saying How to become a millionaire in 2 steps. 1. Think of a money-making idea 2. Make money
I wonder, does anyone make a business plan anymore? I seldom see it mentioned when dealing with an online business. It seems like there should be no difference between online and brick & mortar. I still purchase wholesale. I still package and mail the product. I still collect tax and get taxed.
yeah of course if you only make shits amount of money like $1000 or $10000 per month, you dont need any business plan. If you want to make millions, business plan is needed, no matter if it's offline or online business.
You cannot get even a very small business loan without some sort of plan and P&L statement. I have gotten loans for my b&m but never tried for an online business. I wonder the difficulty involved in getting a loan for an online business?
