Default What do You want?

Nasrat:

Let me get this straight so I know what you're asking...

You want to know from those who PLAN to start a home-based Internet business (that is, those who do not yet currently have a successful Internet business), what they require to make their business successful, right?

If I am reading your question wrong I'm sorry. The fact is, those who are planning to start a business don't know what they need to make it successful because they haven't tested anything yet and so they can't answer your question.

If you want to know what it takes because you are planning to start a home-based Internet business, then here is what you need...
[*]A product to sell that people want.
[*]A website to sell it from.
[*]A way to accept payment.
[*]A way to reach the people who want your product to let them know they can get it from you.

Parts 2 through 4 are easy. There is plenty of webpage creation software and plenty of templates freely available to use. Clickbank, PayPal and Revecom can handle your payment processing. And ezines and search engines should take care of getting the word out about your goods or services.

Will having those three in place make you successful?

Not necessarily. You need to TEST your marketing - right message to the right people at the right time. And you need to take care of Number 1... selling what people want... that's the hard part and what brings most people undone.

Is that the sort of thing you were looking for?
