The world has transformed over the past decade, what with the introduction of the latest technologies such as tablets and Smartphones. What is impressive to see is the rise of social networking sites, which serve as a platform for people to come together and interact with each other. Numerous networking websites have surfaced over the year, but only few have remained and become well known by the masses.
4eLife is not just a networking platform, rather it is an online community, where people with different interest can come and interact with one another, share different business ideas, and enjoy their time having rewarding discussions. If you or anyone you know has a business idea, which they would like to discuss with prospective partners, or if you want to receive advice regarding the best way to start a business, then the 4eLife community is just the right place for you. Not only, will you come across some of the most knowledgeable people in a variaty of industries, but you can also help others in your community start their own business.
So, how can you benefit from becoming a member of this growing community platform? Here are a few simple tips that can help you.
Don’t Let Fear Hold You Back
At 4eLife, we encourage people to bring their thoughts forward. Never be afraid of doing something that is unique and different from the status quo. You can be sure to have a good time discussing and learning new things. Coming across people from different industries, experiences, and backgrounds, you can be informed about the latest trends of the market. Networking can help you go a long way, no matter in which industry you may be, or what kind of business you might have.
Strategize
While having a good business idea is always beneficial, it helps to have a strategy at hand. Before you go on to launch a business, it always helps to seek the expertise of veterans from the field. Find people who can give you sound advice regarding the initiative you are about to take. Then before you take a decision, always make sure that you have done your research. Having market knowledge is the key in making your business successful, so be sure to get your facts right before taking action on any decision.
Believe in Your Idea
When it comes to developing a business from scratch, you may face many uncertain circumstances and unseen hurdles. Never lose heart. Always believe in yourself and your idea. Remember what we have mentioned before, keep a close eye on the market and notice the trends. Adapt to changing situations, otherwise, keeping up with competition will become difficult.

Remember the Magic 8-Ball? It was a toy that was around when I was a kid -- maybe still is -- and you would ask it a question and shake it up, and it would give you helpful answers such as:
Go for it!
Don't do it!
You what?!
You're kidding, right?
Huh?
Well, maybe I don't remember the answers exactly. Anyway, it always seemed to me that if you had to shake up a Magic 8-Ball to get an answer, you were pretty squarely in the undecided category to begin with, and you might as well do what it said.
Now, I talk to a lot of writers who are overwhelmed at the prospect of a website, and it's too bad, because they have valuable things to say that aren't getting the currency they deserve. So in the spirit of the Magic 8-Ball, I offer the following types of websites to meet the goals of different writers.
- You Want to Promote Your Novels
You've already published a work of fiction, whether it's self-published, small press, or big publisher, and you want to give it more traction. Start a blog and review books in your genre. Post at least several times a week, preferably every day. Run your own reviews, but mix in links to other people's reviews where your can have an affiliate link to your favorite online bookseller for extra income -- if someone buys through that link, you get a commission.
- You Want to Promote Your Nonfiction
You write materials that help people solve their problems and get through life more successfully. You're published on paper, print-on-demand, ebooks, audio, video, or all of the above. You have the chance to make serious money with your website.
Create a website dealing with the problem you solve. Optimize it to get search engine traffic. Create sales pages for your products and promote them by writing short articles giving good information about your topic and distribute them to the article directories.
- Promote a Cause
Your book is all about changing the world. Create a blog with articles and news relating to that problem. Let's say your passion is finding a cure for Parkinson's disease. Post news items relating to Parkinson's research, along with information to help Parkinson's sufferers and their families, and have a prominent link to your favorite Parkinson's-related charity so that your readers can easily donate to the cause.
- Write for Fun and Income
Find a hot topic and blog about it. It might be celebrities, some specific health concern, making money, relationships, gadgets. Google Trends can be a source of inspiration for this. Post snippets of news and opinion relating to your topic, along with your own unique take, and get some contextual ads on your site.
- Support Your Writing Habit
A lot of people make a good living doing affiliate marketing, which is commission sales online. You promote someone else's product and get a commission. If it's an ebook, for example, you might get 50-100 percent of the purchase price for selling it. Build a website with links to the product author's sales page, and you write articles relating to the product and post them to article directories, bringing traffic and links to your site
If you haven't started your website yet, you are already missing out on great opportunities to build your author's platform and promote your work. Your writer's website is your doorway into a world where your skills are desperately needed and -- if you meet people's needs -- richly rewarded.
If the whole thing seems new and intimidating, just get a blog started and start writing. It will be easier than you think. There is information readily available to learn what you don't know, and people readily available to help or do it for you. If you don't start, you leave the global marketplace lacking your unique contribution.
