What is the cost of starting a business using your computer?
What I mean is with everything involed getting e-books, CD’s, personal coaches, making phone calls, and everything else you need to help start your business without the other people that are involed or the one’s who won’t to make a profit from you starting you own bussiness with the computer. I receive e-mails all the time about people that can help me start a business but, they all won’t something. I don’t know who is for real or not. I do know you got to invest some money and I know you won’t get wealthy over night. So what do I need to look for?
I am not sure to sell a product or try to offer direction in finding a product when starting my internet business.

Jere answers:
I suggest you start by reading some books on the topic:

– 101 Internet Businesses You Can Start from Home by Susan Sweeney
– The E-Code: 33 Internet Superstars Reveal 43 Ways to Make Money Online Almost Instantly—Using Only Email by Joe Vitale
To start an internet business, you need to have:
1. The right business model: a product or service that people need and want
2. You know how to build traffic
3. You know how to convert those traffic
Yes, it is not easy. But you can learn.

How do I create an internet access page for my home network?
I want to create a page that will sit on my home server that everyone who intends to use the internet (through my network) must view. They must enter a username and password to be granted access. How do i go about this?

Jere answers:
I assume you have a residential internet connection (DSL or Cable) and a typical home router with wireless. You need to change your router to use RADIUS authentication, or you need to change your home network to incorporate a ‘captive portal’ like you encounter at some internet cafes, libraries, and other areas that offer internet access (free or for a fee).
See the Wikipedia entry for a start.
Check your home router’s documentation — very few include captive portal features in factory firmware, but some small-business model like ZyXel have that feature. Your router may support RADIUS authentication, but you’ll need to set up a RADIUS server on your home server or an alternative box.
If your router firmware does not support RADIUS or includes a captive portal, check for your router in one of the third-party firmware sites like DD-WRT or CoovaAP. You probably still need to work with a web server and/or radius server on your local network to support the captive portal login.
I do not have experience, but consider Untangle Lite. This is s free router package that includes a Captive Portal. Untangle has a reputation for ease of use. However, this requires creating a box that sits between your guest network and the internet. You may need to add a second wireless access point or router to provide guest wireless access that goes through the Untangle router.

What is a profitible market to start your own business in?
I am 22 and i have a B.S in Business. I want to start my own business but there is so much out there it’s hard to decide what to do.

Jere answers:
I think if you sell business structures and set ups to trades people, this would be a way to go. Lets say a trades person is running their business and is doing a rotten job at it. You could sell them a package on a hard drive to help them run a business. In the package would be instructions, spread sheets and data bases ready for set up and running.
A business model would be included that would detail a company structure and wage chart. Cappings and plans and distribution of incoming cash could be pre-determined. You could even include a communications package including web pages and Internet services.
Is that what you had in mind?

Richard asks…
How come blackberry internet is so slow compared to other internet?
On other phones the internet seems to be a lot faster.
Why is it so slow.
Also why are blackberry’s so expensive when they are not even that good?

Jere answers:
First, you are paying for the brand name, and that the Blackberry is a business phone.
Many people buy the phone for personal use, but never even use it for what it’s designed for, Push-Mail.
Depending on what carrier you have the phone on, and the model you have, the phone may not be able to support 3G speeds. You can check your model online and see if it can do 3G.
If it can, and it’s not the carrier incompatibility, then it may just have a slow processor. Nothing you can do about that.
Hope this helps.
