RAISING A FAMILY... WORK FROM HOME!

Wednesday 28 July 2010

Working at home is not new; it existed in the Middle Ages and during the Renaissance. According to one survey, about 40 percent of the total work force is either work-at-home, or self-employed. This is projected to rise about 20 percent each year.

Is working at home for everyone? Definitely not! Not everyone is able to handle being socially isolated. Not everyone is organized enough. Only you know what you are capable of doing.

You definitely have to be motivated and serious about this for it to work. If you are
serious about working at home, you will probably find a way to make it work for you. If
you desire to work, but want a schedule with your family, consider a part-time job you
can take while your children are at school. If you have a great desire of certain goals you
want to achieve, take a full-time job for a short time. But remember your children.

There are many benefits to working in the home, but the most important that come to my mind are:

• Time with the family. This is one of the greatest benefits.

• The flexible schedule. You save on sick time, take a vacation (if you have things in balance), and have an open schedule for things that may come up.

• Convenience. You couldn’t find a better place to work.

• Reduced costs. You eliminate lunches out, clothing, gas, parking, and traffic.

• Fewer workplace distractions. You get more hours actually on the clock.

• The potential to achieve a great income.

• Healthier body, spirit, and mind!

There are many people changing work schedules because they are tired of the heavy toll that commuting takes on their lives. Workplace and commuting stress can result in high-blood pressure, chronic headaches, back pain, alcoholism, drug abuse, and disease.

Some companies now offer a compressed work week; many are even offering a
telecommute schedule. The compressed work week offers 10-hour work days, allowing a
three day weekend every week. Nearly eight million employees now work at home
during normal business hours, according to Link Resources. This fastest growing part of
the work-from-home population is made up of salaried workers, better known as
“telecommuters” or “teleworkers.” This not only saves on the wear and tear of the
employees, it also saves expense for the employers.

For a full resource of legitimate work at home resources find time to visit:
[http://www.newonlineadsense.com] and [http://www.achristianmothersguide.com]. If you are serious
about finding work at home, I encourage you to visit these sites and search your heart for
what you may want to do. It’s not going to work with the first thing you find to do. This
is where persistence and motivation come into play. You have to be determined you will
find your passion and desire and stick with it.

Make Money Online: The Real Secrets to Selling Products That You Didn’t Even Create

Friday 6 November 2009

There are many individuals who are misinformed when it comes to making money online. Unfortunately, a large number of individuals believe that you have to be trained in a particular field or have special talents. The reality is that skills and training may increase your chances of finding a legitimate money making opportunity; however, they are not required. All you need to do is find an opportunity that requires little or no work and then you could be on your way to making money.

An opportunity that requires little or now work; if you are wondering how this is possible you are not alone. Most individuals are taught to beware of these business opportunities because most of them are scams. While you will find scams online, there real business opportunities out there that would not require you to put in long work hours. One of those business opportunities involves selling a product that isn’t even yours. You can do this by acquiring the private label resell rights for a particular product. These products are most commonly e-books, software programs, and content articles.

The first step in taking part in this amazing business opportunity is to find a private label product that currently has its resell rights available for sale. This can easily be done a number of different ways. Perhaps, the easiest way is to perform a standard internet search. If you are interested in purchasing the resell rights to an e-book, you will want to perform a standard internet search, using the words private label e-book resell rights. If you are looking to purchase content articles, software programs, or something else, you will need to replace the word e-book with what you are searching for. By performing this internet search, you should be provided with links to websites offering resell rights for sale.

An alternative to performing your own research is to seek recommendations from those that you know. If you know of anyone who has participated in this money making opportunity, you may want to ask them for advice. While product recommendations are good, it is still advised that you closely examine each product offer before making a final decision. If you do not know anyone who has participated in this type of opportunity, you can easily speak to those that you do not know. What is nice about the internet is that it allows you to connect with a wide variety of different people. These people may be able to offer advice or inside tips when it comes to obtaining the resell rights to a particular private label product.

Once you have found an individual who is offering their product for sale, via private label resell rights, you will need to consider their product. You will want to make sure that it is not only a quality product, but one that you will be able to sell. This is important because you will be buying the right to resell the product. Since you will be investing your own money into this business opportunity, you will need to make sure that you are successful. If you are absolutely sure that you have found a quality product that you can market and sell to the general public, you can go ahead and strike a deal with the product creator.

Although obtaining the resell rights to a product, such as an e-book, software program, or collection of content articles, will not require a large amount of work on your part, it is important to remember that you will have to do some work. To effectively sell the product which you acquired the rights to, you will need to market your product to the general public. Of course, unless otherwise stated in your resell rights agreement, you should be market the product in anyway that you see fit. In other words, this means that you should still be able to make money no matter how much or how little you want to work.

With affiliate marketing, the advertiser will create a link to the affiliate’s web site, the customer will just click on the link and he will be instantly directed to the company’s site. If a sale is made the affiliate will be credited for the sale.

dispite its money-spitting features, not all affiliate programs are worth the effort. Some affiliate programs can provide maximum earning potential, while others are not worth the affiliate’s time and effort. Therefore, it is very important to choose the right affiliate program to gain maximum earning potential.

3. The right price…

Obviously, money is the main reason why you would join an affiliate program. So it is normal to choose the affiliate program that offers the best commissions and incentives. Experts say the best percentage of commissions in affiliate programs would be the ones that offer 25% or higher commissions.

4. Instant statistical reports

Try to choose affiliate programs that offer real-time reports and statistics. Also it's best to choose programs that provide you the ability to track your performance and to monitor the merchant as well. Be on the lookout for tracking software or programs that an affiliate program can provide.

5. Safety is the best policy

Make sure you get paid. Since the dawn of the Internet, there have been countless frauds and deceptions lurking in the virtual sites. Therefore, choose an affiliate program that will definitely pay you the commissions you deserve.

6. In high demand

It is best to promote products or services that are in high demand. After all, you don't want to waste you time and effort promoting a product if it's not going to make you any money. Research your target market to find the products people are looking to buy.

7. Real products to sell

Be cautious of some affiliate programs that lure you to join and make you believe you will be selling a particular product, only to find out that the program is a pyramid scheme.

Given all that, it is best to meticulously choose an affiliate program that will not give you a run for your money. Try to be very picky when choosing the affiliate program you will promote. Choosing the wrong affiliate program can definitely do you more harm than good.

Top 7 Tips to Starting your Own Business

When starting your own business it pays to jot down a business plan and that is not too hard considering that many of the business plans are already out there for the type of business which you will probably be starting. The best thing to do is copy down an outline and a business plan that was done by someone else which is similar to the business you will be starting.

Do not copy it word for word but understand the basis for the business plan and the items you need to address. When starting your new business it is important to contact a lawyer to make sure that you are legally protected and can distance your personal assets from anything that happens of the business.

When starting your own business you need to make sure that you have all the proper paperwork filed and figured out with the local city, county and state agencies. Generally you can get a copy of all these things from your local Chamber of Commerce or the small business administration, which you can find a phone number in your phonebook.

Starting your own business is not difficult and neither is writing a good business plan; but making money is and the more prepared you are in advance the better your chances are. Please consider this in 2006.

Most online merchants are grouped around Merchant Directories such as Clickbank, Commission Junction and a host of others. You can make money as an affiliate with or without a website.

3. Pay per click advertising{popularly known as Google AdWords} is one of the quickest and most effective ways of making money on the internet. This is an advertising system based on search words in popular pay-per-click-search engines such as Google, Yahoo, MSN, Miva, Goclick and many others. It is possible to make money online literally within hours with the power of AdWords, but it is advisable for a beginner to receive proper tutorials in AdWords before launching his first campaign. There are several of such tutorials online, the most popular being Chris Carpenter's GOOGLE CASH.

4. Do you have a flair for writing? You may as well earn a good living online writing for others. Freelance writers are sought after on the net and many webmasters are ready to pay a tidy sum for some good ghost writing. And remember that you can do almost all your research on the internet itself. A popular site for freelance writers is Elance.com.

5. Another potential source of revenue for a writer is to write free articles for ezines, newsletters and article banks. A free article author quickly establishes himself as an authority in his field. In addition, he attracts good quality traffic to his website which has the capacity to convert into sales of his site products. This important free traffic is achieved by the author placing his particulars in the resource box at the foot of the article.

6. Do you have a personal problem-solving story - a long running battle with migraine which you finally solved through an alternative treatment, for example? Why not write about it and turn it into an ebook? You may very well be on your way to making good money on the internet. In fact, many of the hottest products online are of this nature.

7. Just mentioned above is an example of an information product. Information products are particularly sought after on the internet and are about the hottest ways of making money online. A second type of information product that can be sold easily online is information pertaining to the internet itself. This includes topics such as webhosting, internet marketing, home business, etc. There is a huge market for these and an ebook that will provide information on these topics is a money-spinner any day. And remember, you can get about almost all the resources you require to write a killer info product from the internet itself, a lot of the times for free. It just requires some dedication and commitment and where to look. A good starting place is the search page of Google.

8. Like most people, you may not be able to write your own ebook but you can still go ahead to make good money online as an ebook reseller.. There are many good ebooks online which are sold with resale rights. You can easily buy one such product and resell it under your own brand and keep a hundred percent of the profits.By buying an ebook with resale rights, rebranding it, ingeniously marketing it with multiple levels of affiliate programs, many entrepreneurs online have been able to make a tidy fortune. You can as well.

9. Do you have skills in programming, editing, proofreading, web designing and such related fields? Then you can make money online as a freelancer. On popular freelancing sites like Elance.com or Guru.com, it is easy for a freelancer to get jobs.

10. You can start your own hosting service as a hosting reseller. What this means is that you can buy a hosting reseller package from a web host and redistribute your space to subscribers. As a hosting reseller, you may even be in a better position to offer better service to your clients as you can easily switch to another web host in case of technical difficulty experienced by your original host. And you don't have to worry about technical support for your clients as this is handled in most cases by your web host

11. The easiest products to sell online and make money from are digital products such as ebooks. The second most important digital product is softwares. As a programmer can write your own software and market it online. Even without a product of your own you can make money from softwares as a software reseller or affiliate.

There are several companies online that offer full service electronic storefronts with ordering capacity, offer administrative functions and host your site for you. . Examples are Yahoo!Store, BigStep.com, FreeStoreClub.Com, and FreeMerchant.Com.

Secret Tips To Find Profitable Niches Online That Make Money Online

Monday 2 November 2009

If you have been hearing from friends or neighbors that people are making money online and still quite skeptical about it. Well I will be very frank with you it's 100% truth! However, only 10% of the hundreds people starting online business everyday succeed. If you like to know what they did, I would recommend you take some paper or open a note pad to take down some notes.

The myth about people making online is very real! From my 16 months of experiencing marketing online and making a nice living now from it many online marketers would always buy books or courses to learn from. In fact even I myself started reading courses online before I actually knew how people make money online. Most of the time I would using my guide book as the stepping stone to remind me of the process involved before I even get start making money online.

Step 1 - Find Out What You Like Best

Before you even start finding out niches or things you want to sell you have to list down at least 10 hobbies or interest that you have currently. PLEASE DO NOT miss this important step as it totally changed my life after I did just this simple work. When you fill up this list of 10 things you love to do the most you would instantly know what is your strong points and every individual have their own strong points.

Step 2 - Do A Research Online

There are many online research tools you can find online and some even require you to pay a premium to find out what people are looking for online. However lots of people made lots of mistake when it comes to keyword research. Keyword research cannot be done in just one day, normally a proper keyword research will take about 3 full days to complete. I often would use free tool to check on the search phrases and demand online.

Also because the data collected is not 100% accurate and some even say it's useless as many SEO experts would agree but at least there is some form of references you can compare online. The free tool will actually show you what is the keyword demand that people are looking for online. So let's say we type in Internet Marketing , you will find a demand of over 178,835 search per month in Overture's network and a competition of 392,000,000 for the term Internet Marketing. Some SEO Experts claim that is the wrong way to search as it's a broad term search. Some SEO Experts would just use "Internet Marketing" then Internet Marketing to search for competition online, however I find it strange to do that as most often who would type in "Internet Marketing" in Google? Not really many I must say.

Because of that reason I always use normal phrase to search for competition to find really good niches with little competition to feed the demand online.

Step 3 - Feet The Need

Once you have found a keyword that has high demand and low competition, you would know exactly what type of needs people really need online. All you need to do is go to networks like Clickbank or Commission Junction to find products to feed those need.

Here are just some of the HOTTEST niches online

1. Sex

2. Viagra

3. Gambling

4. Real Estate

5. Loans

6. Make Money Online

You will noticed most of the niches online are pretty much what human real need are. Although it is not widely said online but it's no doubt that Sex is the No.1 niche market on the Internet. You will be surprised the amount of money generate for both Sex and Gambling itself it's HUGE!

Step 4 - Generate Traffic And List

As a full time blogger and internet marketer, I found out that using blogs and squeeze page are the two most powerful tools you can use to grab leads online. This blog you are reading is generating over 10 to 20 leads per day! That's CRAZY if you ask me. Why are leads important? For one simple reason, you need customers to communicate with so that you can update them with the latest products and services

Step 5 - Focus And Create A Game Plan

Many people failed to make money online because they lacked to focus their attention online and it can be easily distracting especially when you are running your business at home where your bed is SO CLOSE to you... It takes lots of patience actually to see some form of results when you start your online business. I remembered my first check I got online was only $17.80, although it was small but that money earned did not require me to do off line sales talk.

And that's it! Actually I am really tired especially just came back from some army training but I very much wanted to share with you guys as I felt you guys would know the whole truth how people really make money online. If you are smart just print out this article follow what I say you WILL see results if you are consistent and focus for the next 4 weeks!

Using What you Know to Make Money Online...

When I am asked how I make money online I always reply, "Using what I know, what do you know?" After a few moments of blank looks the next question is normally "I'm not an expert on anything how can I make money from not being an expert?"

There is not a person on the planet that doesn't have people go to them for advice on one thing or another. Seriously I have met people who say they have no idea about anything and I ask "Really are you that stupid?" This normally gets me thumped or slapped but come on if you can't see what you know better than others or what you give advice on then is there any home. OK so I then help these people break this down so they can see things a little clearer.

Do you have children? Do you play a sport? Do you cook? Do you......... If you want to make money online then you need to think about what you know. If you ask yourself what you do day in and day out then you will soon realize that you can class yourself as knowing more than the average person about a number of different subjects not just the obvious ones.

I find one of the best questions to ask myself is what do people come to me to ask for advice on? In this case it is how to make money online!

So how do I use that information to make money online? Well here we go, you write about it online, you can write, seriously you can write. This is the hardest obstacle to overcome for anyone getting started in the make money online arena, here is the greatest thing in the world You don't need to be William Shakespear or J.K. Rowlings in order to be able to write and make money online.

As a child I was dyslexic, still have big problems with spelling some words my mind comes to a stop and it takes me a coffee to work out what I am trying to say. However you are currently reading one of hundreds of articles that I have written on different subjects. So you too could write articles to make money online.

The other thing that normally puts people off is that they want to get involved but the technical side of things scares the hell out of them. You do not need to be a computer expert or a website designer or programmer in order to make money online.

To give you all of the information on how to make money online would take a few more articles than just this one but there are thousands of articles available and good websites to give information. Watch who you get the information from there are lots of so called guru's out there willing to take every penny you have from you with empty promises to make money online overnight starting now. It takes time to learn how to make money online.

Make sure that if you are going to sign up to a website or for a product to explain how to make money online that it has a good support forum and good reviews. Many claim to have this but few actually give you what they promise.
