Your Questions About Doing Business Online Unit 8
Nancy asks…
Aren’t you glad you’re not me?
This year has been crazy for me. I am graduating from high school 1 year earlier, as I almost have all my requirement courses covered. This semester I am taking 5 courses at school, 1 night course twice a week and an online english course. I’ve been so busy with all my other courses and now I have to worry about english. The only final exams of the year are on June 15th and I need to finish the booklet before then and take my midterms. The textbooks I ordered just arrived and that’s the reason I didn’t get started earlier. So now I have 69 assignments to do, 3 novels to read, and a unit on shakespeare and an essay to write! I also have other exams to worry about and assignments to do and tests to write for other classes. As if I don’t have other problems, my mom has been away for 3 months to get a job and my dad is on a business trip and I have to take care of my siblings, clean, cook and worry about bills. My older brother and sister are in university and working part-time, so there’s no way they can help me and I don’t even have to explain anything about my little 8 year old sister, do I ?! On top of that, I have extracurricular activities and a job as a tutor.
English right now is my first priority, because if I don’t pass, my hopes of graduating early will be shattered and I would’ve done all that work for nothing. But I still have tons of other things to do and I have no idea how to stay sane with this many things to do?!
Jere answers:
So you have about a month to get all your assignment stuff done right? Just space out your schedule (ie. 3 assignments & 60 pages a day) and do the work accordingly. You don’t need to go crazy (even if the workload is a lot) and finish it before it’s even due, just as long as you finish before! If you concentrate on the entire amount of work to do, you’ll overwhelm yourself and will not get anything done, trust me. You don’t seem like the type to procrastinate, so you should be fine (: Stay strong, you can do it!

Jere answers:
Using what you have learned in Unit 11, both on the online school and in your textbook, you should have plenty of time between now and June 7 to do this essay. In doing it yourself you will absorb the information more thoroughly. If you need further help, use the internet and key in the salient phrases or words, e.g. “Dustbowl, USA”, “Black Tuesday”, “Do Nothing President”.
Come on now, you can do it, I know you can.

Ken asks…
How hard is it to sell 100,000 units of something?
Do you think it’s possible? The product costs $8.99. Any advice? I have trouble with online selling. It seems to be a gamble for me. I start it up, and give the hosts my money and then I’m left wondering, how am I going to get customers, why come it doesn’t look anything like a business website at all, and worst of all…I don’t even know how to form it correctly. Is there a solution to this,and where I can still be successful in selling my product. I got $400 to $600 to work with, but I don’t want to waste my money again on something that looks promising but isn’t going to give me more than what I put into it. If I put $400 into it, I at least want to be have made $1,200 out of it. Plain and Simple. Help me out. Poor man, trying to become more wealthier.
Jere answers:
Depends on what you have. I sold 108,000 units of something a few years ago in just 10 weeks with just 1 little free ad on traffic swarm (trafficswarm.com). I did not even have a separate website, just a page on another website. If people want what you have to sell, they will buy it. If not, they won’t. Advertise online with squidoo lens, hubpage, youtube videos, (I made a 90 second video using public domain video and free downloadable video software), product review sites and social networks. Write an article about your product and post it to ezine articles. Find out how many people want your product (and how much competition you have) by conducting a kei search for your product keyword on nichebot.com and spyfu.com If you need a website, you can hire someone to do it (but mine cost $300 – almost beyond your budget).
