For Those Who Think Anybody Can Do This
189
We've had many a discussion the past couple of weeks about running your
own home business and many here have said that anybody who wants to do
this can make this work.
I've said the opposite, that not everybody is cut out for this and got plenty
of slack for it.
Well, here is just one sample of the proof that not everybody is cut out for
this business.
This is an email I received recently. The only thing I edited was the person's
name so as not to embarrass them.

Hello!
I need Help I do not have a penny to use how can i make an internet
business ...
Regards,

Okay, at the risk of sounding prejudice, this person is from a non English
speaking country (obvious from the email) and can just about communicate.
In further correspondence, trying to actually help this person, I tried to
get some idea of how bad their financial situation is and what skills they
have so as to find out if there is anything they could do to maybe earn
just a few dollars.
After countless hours of assistance, the person has almost no command
of the English language, has no money and has no skills. I tried to suggest
Bum Marketing but there is no way this person can write an article that
will get read. His English is that bad. He can't afford to outsource to get
the articles written and has no skills to barter to have the articles written
for him.
In short, I wracked my brain trying to think of something that this person
could do. And with 5 plus years of marketing smarts behind me, I couldn't
come up with a thing.
Okay, maybe I'M the stupid one. Maybe a real crackerjack marketer could
turn this person into a profitable home business owner.
If so. If you still believe that anybody can do this, post your suggestions
below.
Remember, he has no skills and no money and can just about speak English.
I couldn't help him.
Maybe YOU can.
