I help women build a smart and profitable business online. Starting a business might feel easy, but making it successful takes tons of work. I am a multi-passionate mompreneur, and I teach people how to build multiple income streams with ease. I know how much it takes to run a successful business. Today I am sharing about the 10 factors that affect your online business success.
10 Factors that affect your online business success

As I mentioned earlier, starting a business needs courage, but making it successful needs the right path and hard work. This online world is like putting together a puzzle. But if you consider these factors, it will shift many things for you, ultimately affecting your business.
Here are the ten factors which going to contribute, in fact, to the success of your online business.
Business planning
Planning is a fundamental step in each process. You must have heard, “If you fail to plan, you plan to fail.” So before you jump on making other business-related decisions, create a business plan first. A business plan gives you the clarity to the path of success.
Taking responsibility
As we know, everyone wants to be a part of success but not a failure. To be a successful entrepreneur, you need to take responsibility for both success and failure. This is a key element of success. Don’t make an excuse. Successful online business owners don’t blame other people for their loss. Not everything works in one shot. You need to do the trial and error methods. If you try something and it doesn’t work, then learn from it. Remember, “Learn from your mistakes, don’t run from it” How you learn from mistakes is more important than the fact that you just made a mistake.
Developing good habits
A successful business owner knows that when you have good habits every day, it helps you move forward in your business. For example, if you develop the habit of doing social media updates every Friday, you are more likely to be successful in keeping it up to date every Friday. Maybe as a business owner, you want to have a morning routine to feel energized. I want to say develop habits, and it can be any habit like a business planning session or using a planner. These helped me to come out form the fear of doing Facebook live.
Act upon it and Implement
Planning is nothing without implementation; in the same way, developing habits is not enough; you also need to implement it in your daily routine. It applies to everything. Suppose you made a business plan, but you are not taking action upon it. Without effort and implementation, how do you get success? Taking action is essential to get a win.
Believe in yourself
One trap that people get into is letting self-doubt control their decision-making ability. If you believe in yourself, you will be more successful. To believe in yourself, don’t try to reinvent the wheel. The information you need is out there. If you learn it, you will be able to make decisions based on knowledge. There are no new bits of information; you take something and make it your own. Most of us have trouble believing ourselves and showing compassion. Showing ourselves compassion is key. We worry about everything else and too hard on ourselves.
Being in the right environment
The environment is one of the factors that indicate success. It matters what kind of people you are surrounded with. The people you allow in your circle and your life is essential. Follow the people where you want to be. That’s whom you admire, and that’s whom you want to be. Being with good, trustworthy people, you will be more likely to succeed. This is what exactly I did when I got started in my online business. I started building my network marketing business in 2012 online, and I reached out to leaders in the company and introduced myself through Facebook. I asked them, “can you give me one key factor that contributed to your success?” Most people don’t do this because they are scared.
Passing your comfort zone
It’s a straightforward, cut, and dry the best way to have success is to get out from your comfort zone, and how do you do that? You can do it by taking action. Consider the little things like if you are nervous about going live, get over it. The way to get over it is by going live. Sometimes we premeditate what people are going to think in certain situations, which is where we need to get over the ego. Because that’s how you learn new things, grow, and experience success. I would recommend the book “Big leap by gay Hendricks.”
Developing Processes
I teach women how to build smart and simple businesses because I have done everything the hard way. I have seen so much fluff, and I am tired of seeing people be distracted from building what they want because they think they need to be doing it like someone else. Smart and successful business owners, they know how to develop processes for everything that they do. When anything from your business becomes a process, it’s more likely to get done at the same quality over time. If you are in the network marketing business, you want to look at what processes can you put into place for your team?

You cannot please everyone, including yourself
When you are working on anything, whether it’s a project, working with your business manager, or VA, there is only one person you need to please, and that is your ideal audience. You are speaking to your audience. It helps perfectionism and procrastination go out of the window because my website I built with my audience in mind, but I built its looks for me. I needed to do is instead of worrying about what it looks like, I need to make sure my website was set up to convert. Nobody cares about the color, fonts, or design of the website. The only goal you need to think about is the value you are giving to your ideal audience. If you worry about what everyone else will think instead of your ideal audience, you will most likely end up appealing to nobody.
Know what’s working and not working
If something is not working, you need to replace it, but it’s important to know what’s working and not working. If you run ads or you are running traffic, you have to look at the metrics. Please learn from my mistake. I counted on a Facebook manager to tell me what to do and know my metrics. That’s not smart because you end up losing a ton of money. The Facebook platform is costly. Hence, you have to know your analytics.
Now you have all the factors to improve your online business and make it successful. Mark my words and focus on getting out of self-doubt first. And then skyrocket your business by enhancing every factor I mentioned above. To get more support, feel free to join my Facebook group.
