A few weeks back I was giving a coaching session and was baffled to hear that the individual I was talking to had joined a web programming online course so he would have the technical skills to begin an online business.
I ended up the call very frustrated.
Technical skills are not vital for starting an online business.
The main mistake many people do when beginning online is to believe that they need first to know how to code.
Somebody is thinking of beginning an online business and... join a programming or web engineer online course.
Do you see any logic here?!
I now understand why web-programming courses have been flourishing the last few years on the Internet!
With individuals intrigued by the opportunity that lies in having an online business, they mistakenly believe that by gaining the technical knowledge they will be able to start an online business.
You can be the best online software engineer in the world and still struggle in being a successful digital entrepreneur.
I get it - without a site, you can't go far on the web.
The uplifting news is that whether you want to blog or sell products online, you can have a website without having to type a single line of code.
I am thinking obviously at WordPress, my favourite website builder platform.
But Wix is also another great alternative for any individual who needs an online presence.
Don't let a lack of technical skills alarm you
The Internet is always changing, which implies that it offers opportunities for any individual who has something valuable to offer.
If you've ever considered starting a business, I strongly recommend going online.
