FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE
(Free-Press-Release.com) October 12, 2011 -- A recent survey on entrepreneurs working from home, conducted by award winning PRO Elite online marketing expert, Lena Bjorna, reveals the biggest challenge these online entrepreneurs face is the overload of information available on the Internet.
61.5 percent of participants complained of the excess of advice, and 42.3 percent criticized the lack of real guidance and mentorship. In another question 88.2 percent of survey respondents were not working closely with a mentor.

Despite the fact that home-based business income opportunities are exploding, and fast becoming the number one way for baby boomers to supplement their retirement income, "the excess of information and advice is overwhelming" comments a New York based boomer female entrepreneur. "I’m craving some kind of guidance and mentorship because it’s difficult to navigate this new experience, and minefield of information."

Asked how often they spend money on training materials, 38.5 percent answered "never," 23 percent said, "once a month, and another 23 percent answered, "several times a month as needed."

Participants were then asked about their learning material preference. 53.8 percent opted to learn using videos, and 43 percent favored online newsletters.

The final survey question asked, "if a successful online marketer offered a guaranteed blueprint to make a six-figure income, how much would participants be prepared to pay for this opportunity?"
10 percent responded less than ten dollars; but tied for first position 30.8 percent answered more than ten dollars, or over fifty dollars.

In conclusion, the majority of home-based online entrepreneurs surveyed, seeks mentorship and guidance, and is more than ready to pay for this invaluable advice.
