Actaully Dominic, its not rediculous at all but rather a pretty accepted figure. Do a Google search for home business, internet marketing or mlm failure rates and you will find a 97-99% range. Now, I will admit that this is a bit deceiving. This is because statistics have also shown that most new entrepreneurs fail on the first 2 ventures they undertake; a statistic that holds true even for brick and mortar entreprenreurs. They are far more intelligent and savvy on business #3 than they were when they were a green business newbie. I would assert that if they had learned those lessons (from biz selection to planning and marketing strategy) as they began their first venture rather than “failure school” then, in many cases they could vastly alter the learning curve and take a far more direct path to success.

Where exactly does the following, and ridiculous, statistic come from?

“It is one of the main contributors to the home business failure rate being 98%.”

I am curious of it source (reference), and highly questionable of both its reliability and validity.

I recently started my own home business and I haven’t looked back. It certainly feels good, especially since my company let go a bunch of people.

This article is right on target with what an aspiring entrepreneur needs to know. I agree totally with what you said about choosing who you follow. I wish I would have read this when I first got started and before I spent lots of money on fly by night offers of help. I can tell that you genuinely want to help other home business owners. I also love that quote at the end!
