7. Download Skype (www.skype.com). It’s free, and will really help you to stay in touch with other members, as well as make cheap calls.  While you’re at it, add me (Matt Lloyd) to your contacts- my Skype ID is homebusinessbuilders.com.au.  That way if you get stuck at any time, I’ll be able to help you out- I’m online most of the day.

You’ll also need a good headset- you can pick one of these up from any computer or electronics store for around 40 bucks, although I suggest you get a good one for closer to 80 if you can afford it.  Since you’ll be using it a lot, it’s important that it’s comfortable and has good audio quality.

For a monthly fee of around AU$14.95, you’ll get unlimited calls to landline numbers in over 36 countries.  But it’s 100% free to call other Skype users, regardless of where they are.

8. Register for an Australian Business Number. This is a free process. To register an ABN online, go to: http://abr.gov.au/ABR_BC/. An ABN generally takes a week to process.  To register a .com.au domain name in Australia you will need an ABN number.  But you don’t need one to get a .com domain.

9. Domain Name. Start to brainstorm different domain names.  If you want some feedback or ideas, either contact your mentor or visit our Forums.

To see what names are still available and which one’s have been taken, just go to www.crazydomains.com.au, and use the Domain Search tool.

Tip:  When it does come time for you to purchase your domain name, you will likely be led through a sales process where they’ll try and upsell you on buying other offers.  Just ignore them all- you only need the bare basics for what we’re doing.

10. Recommended Reading: Think and Grow Rich –available as a free download at http://www.milliondollarbookshelf.com/books/tagr/index.php or http://www.milliondollarbookshelf.com/

11. Start listening in to the “International Live Presentation Webinar”. Access the next call  in the “Training Calls” section.  These will really help you to learn and understand how your new business operates.  I also recommend you introduce yourself on the call, and get involved.

12. Start Day 2 the “Fresh Start” way. Visit the “Training Calls” section on the home page, and register for the Monday Fresh Start call (remember to select your time zone when registering.)
