Do your remember when you first started out in the online business world? You probably had questions and problems along the way. Wouldn't it have been easier if you had help?

You'll get many benefits from helping online business newbies. Below are eight possible benefits you could receive:
1. You will feel good knowing that you had a part in helping them build their business. You can sit back and say "I had a part in their success."
2. They may become one of your best friends. Most people can use new friends, even business owners. You may even become business partners and create a totally new business together.
3. You could end up being strategic business allies in the future. You could regularly do joint venture and cross promotion deals with each other.

Hi senorita,
Thanks for stopping by and glad you liked the post.
I totally agree with you on all the eight points listed in your post. None is more true than the one where you mentioned about one buying a product or service from someone who once helped you solve a problem.
Few months ago I sought the help of a total stranger half way across the globe. I emailed a blogger and internet marketer in Japan, Craig Desorcy about a problem that I was having. He gladly helped me solve my problem without asking for a fee. Three months after this help from this guy in Japan, I became friends with him, bought a product and service from him totaling $197.00 and is planning to consult with him for an additional business project with good financial reward for him.
So I agree with all your points.
Happy blogging!
