Step One – Planning & Budgeting

Okay, I know that sounds boring and probably isn’t what you’re interested in hearing.  The problem is,  while there’s plenty of info about “making money online”  that’s really not the same as building a sustainable business.  The bottom line is that without actual planning for the key elements of your business, it’s unlikely  you’ll ever have a business and certainly not a successful one.
