The Grand Internet Business Idea that Didn’t Succeed
So you want to do a startup, eh?
Startup life and culture is super sexy and all sorts of founders are appearing in their jeans and t-shirts and boyish/girlish grins on the covers of magazines and newspapers across North America. Seems that millions of dollars of money is being thrown left right and center at anyone with a dream and the gumption to pursue it. There has been no better time to quit your day job and pursue this. It costs next to nothing to build stuff on the web, right?Today’s question is from Pamela: I am in a situation where I need to increase my monthly income by about $1,000 per month. We already eat as frugally as we can and try to buy only when something is on sale. We economize at home with utilities. I don’t think there is much else I can do besides actually increasing my income from home. In addition to selling online, which I already do, what other work from home opportunities are there that would enable me to see a $1,000 increase in income in a short time?

“Lifestyle” and “Business” Are Not Mutually Exclusive Terms
Some readers misunderstood my recent post comparing startups to lifestyle businesses . Common wisdom is that the only way to build a really profitable and important business is by working like an indentured servant to your business. Noah Kagan runs App Sumo , which provides “daily deals for web geeks” and has bootstrapped his business to impressive milestones in just over a year without giving up control or lifestyle freedom.I had a picture in the office of my first company with the logo above and the capital letters JFDI. (In case it’s not obvious it’s a play on the Nike slogan, “Just Do It.”) I believe that being successful as an entrepreneur requires you to get lots of things done.
