With these lines we begin a new manual which aims to give light to those who are planning a business on the web and do not have a close relationship with the developing world. With this text we want to help people wanting to start a business on the Internet but are possibly lost in a sea of doubt. The idea is to offer tips and advice to help those interested in the needs of a web project with regard to the technological.

Of course to analyze a business requires knowledge of many areas and few, if any, will bring together all the wisdom needed to make a perfect plan. We’re not going to help define a complete business plan, ie how you would define financially possible, where would the investment, how it is used, where and how to obtain income, etc… Nor will we give the formula to really know for sure if your business idea can have the desired profitability.

We would like to offer answers to any questions about creating a business plan, but our training we cannot, or want, get into the field of business engineering. Rather, we assess the extent of our experience on the more technical parts that entrepreneurs may wish to know in order to size their requirements and needs in the area of development, maintenance and promotion of the project. Also several different entrepreneurs with whom we have related over the years DesarrolloWeb.com will give us his views on Internet business, advice and some interesting facts about their own business plans.

Specifically, over the next few articles, discuss issues such as human personnel that will be needed to establish a web business, depending on what factors may be of interest to opt for the possibility of outsourcing certain services, such as the development of the page Web advice when evaluating development budgets, whether or not a professional dedicated to promoting a website, etc..
How did this text

I want to thank the motivation for the creation of this manual to Miguel and Alex, with whom I shared several email conversations about creating a business plan, they were doing for a new Internet project. The doubts of these partners in the business travel on the Internet are summarized in the following sentence:

We want your help to answer the main questions we have. All of them reside in the business plan, since we are not familiar with the Internet business and we know that handle orders of magnitude.

As I said, this book came about through an informal advice and Miquel did for Alex and therefore, as you can see, there are some items that are created by a question and answer format. I hope you find it interesting reading. Would you feel identified with the business concerns of these engineers and above all, you find the answers that were needed to solve your own doubts.

What must be clear is that in this situation are all the business ideas and they all started without any client so it is a process where low to very important is to develop a network of contacts or networking for to reach our potential customers.

It is, however, that many times to build a network of contacts is a slow process and we will have to do what the American business jargon is known as the “Cold Call” or translated “cold calls” that are calls to potential customers who do not know directly or through our network.

Many criticize and reject the implementation of the “cold call” but will often be necessary for a business idea and it makes them even before I gave some tips that can read in the article “Strategies for Increasing Your Sales by telephone tactics Cold Call.”

Now I want to extend this article with a new strategy I’ve read on the blog Young Entrepreneur and which I find very useful review given that the advice you give this website is aimed at a preliminary stage of “cold call” by appealing to a technique called “micromarketing” (read Micromarketing techniques to manipulate the minds of its customers and make more money).

The strategy is simple and aims to burn in the mind of your prospect’s name and what your business idea before the “cold call.” The steps are:

1. Send the first email address. This email just one will be presented with your contact information without waiting for any response of any kind, only tells you who we are and what we do. The prospective client probably quickly discarded this email.

2. Send an e-print. This email will arrive with a printout of our business idea, maybe a letter with a brochure or something. The prospective client shall surely discard this mail form.

3. Send a second email more specific. In this second email and try to sell my services or my products highlighting a problem or need to have the prospective client and how my business idea can help solve this problem or need. It should be more focused and try to capture the attention of the final prospectus of the email there an indication that we will proceed to call the prospective client to discuss the issue.

4. Make the “cold call.” Just as the fourth stage will proceed to make a cold call and at this stage the prospective client will not feel so cold and so-called because in his mind will already have heard before your business idea. May not be granted if it was at Step 1, 2 or 3, but in his mind will feel that you know about your company (ie micromarketing in action).

Try this strategy and comment on whether it worked or not. Remember that in the fourth step the idea is not selling anything but go to a fifth step is to get an appointment for personal fitness only then completed construction of the trust relationship that allows you to sell more and earn more money.
