If you are tired of the corporate grind and you are ready to break out on Your own and start a business, there are several options available to you. In this article we are going to weigh the options of starting your own Internet business vs. buying a franchise.

Option one: Buying a Franchise

The lifestyle of an entrepreneur seems pretty attractive from the outside, and often when people are looking to be able to run their own business, be their own boss, and work the schedule they choose, they consider buying a franchise. A franchise is appealing because it’s a proven business model, they have a well-known brand and pre-existing customer base. There is no re-inventing the  wheel when it comes to running a franchise. You simply follow the proven business model hopefully to success.

But there are a few downsides to this option. Franchises require a sizeable upfront investment. They also require a considerable investment of your time while it is in the beginning stages of getting established. You must hire and manage employees, comply with both the rules and regulations of the company and the location where your business is.

With any new business you are taking on some amount of risk, but with a franchise you have invested so much money upfront and so much of your time and energy that if the business were to fail, you would still end up in considerable debt until you pay off all of the franchise fees, and the expenses of closing down a retail location.

On the flip side, there is always the possibility of the franchise becoming a huge success, which might mean opening more locations and taking up more of your time and sacrificing your quality of life.

Option two: Building an Internet business

Part of the wide appeal of starting an Internet business is that you can begin with very little money. You do not need to lease office space, hire employees or worry about expensive overhead costs. You can work from the comfort and convenience of your own home, set your own hours (however you will actually have to work) and work at your own pace. You set the rules and you determine your rate of growth.  Without the considerable upfront investment costs, it does not take long to break even and move into profit with an Internet business.

The downsides, however, are considerable. You are responsible for the success or failure of your business.  Because of the low cost of entry, many people do not take their business as seriously as they should, they don’t plan carefully, and they don’t manage their time efficiently.

But when you find success in an Internet business that you have started on your own, there are few things more satisfying. You can build a business that will provide you with residual income that will allow you to work fewer hours without sacrificing your income.

When weighing the two options, it really depends on your personality, what kind of lifestyle you desire for yourself, and how much upfront money you have to invest in a business venture and how hands-on you want to be in shaping the business.

There are various reasons why there are many individuals who want to start their own home-based Internet marketing business. Some are saying that the amount of money that they are earning from Internet marketing is higher compared to their monthly salary from their regular work. It even comes to a point that they are earning money similar to or more than the salary of their managers and department heads! This is relatively true, since there are Internet marketers who are earning as much as a hundred thousands of dollars within a month. For more information logon to www.sell-using-the-web.com
Other reasons that these Internet marketers may include in their list are their differences with their respective bosses, spending more time with their spouses and children, the chance of traveling which is virtually impossible if they are just ordinary employees, the chance for an improved quality of life, and others. There may be other reasons behind their determination to start and continue their home-based Internet marketing business, but these are all under a single theme.

All individuals starting their home-based business really look for one thing-and that is FREEDOM!

If you have your own home-based Internet marketing business, you will gain freedom from the pressure of your work. There will be no boss who will tell you what you need to do and what you need not to do. There will be no alarm clock that will wake you up and go to your dead-end work that does not pay you enough to let you do what you want to do. You will be able to tell your children that all of you will be going to Disneyland during Yuletide season because you have enough money. You will be able to watch your favorite musicals or play your favorite sport since you do not have work to attend to.

Yes, it is about money. However, if you do not have the freedom with the things that you want to do and you always act as if you are a robot who will follow everything for the sake of earning more money for your family. By starting your own home-based Internet marketing business, you will be able to ditch your boss, your bedside alarm clock, those coats and ties that you wear, the gripping clients, and other pressures that prevents you to enjoy your work.

There was once an Internet marketer who confirms that the freedom offered by home-based Internet marketing business is really fantastic. He starts his day at 10 o’clock in the morning, going to his “office” on his favorite lay-around-the-house clothes. After doing all of his Internet marketing-related task in the morning, he will sleep again and will wake up at around 4 o’clock in the afternoon, do some grocery shopping on the nearby grocery store, and checking his personal computer unit if there were any updates with regards to the deals he had made early in the morning. He can do all of this because he is the boss and in-charge of his home-based business. There was no real potential loss since he can make it up on the next day.

That is freedom-even in the strangest way possible. You do what you want or what you need to do without asking permission or worry about what will happen to your pay slip if you leave work earlier… or probably take a day or two off completely.

However, there are few individuals who realize the benefit of freedom in starting a home-based Internet marketing business. Most of Internet marketers just sign up on a particular Internet marketing program and make all the money that they could.

Another freedom that you will enjoy in starting you home based Internet marketing business is carrying your “office” on other locations aside from your bedroom or the basement of your house. Even you are in Disneyland, the coastal areas of Florida, or in the casino haven of Las Vegas, you will be able to close deals and earn lots of deals. You will feel more relaxed if in between your relaxation or vacation on other places, you are thinking of a business that is giving you salary no matter what you are doing.

The Internet has leveled the playing field, making it possible for anybody to start a business. O’Bryan, however, has given us the easy-to-follow instruction manual on how to first discover your niche and then build it into a big enterprise that can run itself from almost anywhere–all from his successful and proven formulas. A great book for anybody serious about a better quality of life.

(PRWEB) November 1, 2007 — Best selling author gives away over $10,000,000 in bonuses, while showing how anyone can create an online business they can run from anywhere.

With a financial slight-of-hand that he explains in his book, “Your Portable Empire- How To Make Money Anwyhere While Doing What You Love,” best-selling author Pat O’Bryan has given away over ten million dollars in bonuses and gifts without spending a dime.

“The trick is to remember that there’s no such thing as competition,” says O’Bryan. “The Portable Empire system is based on helping others-finding problems and solving them, and selling the solutions.”

“We’ve seen where dog-eat-dog social Darwinism has taken us, and it’s a trip that has left a lot of people behind. The Portable Empire system offers an alternative to dog meat.

Almost anybody can use this system to become recession/depression proof, and make a fine living with no bosses, no set hours, and no set
location.”

Sound like magic? Another get-rich-quick scheme?

“No way,” O’Bryan explains. “I get emails from people occasionally, with the saddest stories- they need to make huge amounts of money immediately- and I tell them to get a job. For now.”

“My system is based on technological solutions that are available to everybody right now for free. These resources have never existed before,” he explains.

“In my book I show you how to create an inventory of profitable products that are free to create, have no inventory or storage costs, and are free to deliver- but it’s not magic. You can build a large monthly passive income over time, but not overnight.”

The success of O’Bryan’s book has quickly thrust him into the forefront of best-selling authors. What do other best-selling authors of business books think of his book?

Mark Joyner, Wall Street Journal bestselling author of Simple’ology, says, “In a sea of snake oil and get-rich-quick nonsense about fast money on the Internet from people who haven’t really done it, O’Bryan’s book is a ship of sanity to an island of commonsense ecommerce. This works.”

Joseph Sugarman, Chairman, BluBlocker Sunglass Corporation and best-selling author says, “The Internet has leveled the playing field, making it possible for anybody to start a business. O’Bryan, however, has given us the easy-to-follow instruction manual on how to first discover your niche and then build it into a big enterprise that can run itself from almost anywhere–all from his successful and proven formulas. A great book for anybody serious about a better quality of life.”

“Your Portable Empire- How To Make Money Anywhere While Doing What Your Love,” is available at www.Amazon.com and all major book stores internationally.

You can take advantage of the ongoing $10,000+ bonus give-away at www.YourPortableEmpire.com/book.
