Are You Stuck At Home Mom?

When you first started out in the adult stages of your
life, you were "Care Free". You had no responsibilities...
you went everywhere you wanted to go. No body or nothing to
stop you from doing as you please.

But you met Jim and fell in love. Three years and three
children later, both of you are doing fine.

But one afternoon you turn up for work at the restaurant
you work at for the past five years and the boss call you
to the office.

Jane, you are valued worker... you have work here with me
for the past five years and the performance of your duties
"was" excellent. (The moment you hear the word "was", your
heart starts to beat faster now, because it knows the
unexpected is coming). But due to the decrease in business,
i have to let you go. Sorry...

Now, all sorts of thoughts starts to run through your
mind... only Jim is working now and we have a lot of
expenses to take care of. The mortgage to be paid,
insurance for the home, insurance for the car, the Nursery
for the kids, and on and on, you are worrying.

But you are an intelligent woman and decided to cut back on
spending, putting that savings where it is most needed. The
first thing you did, was to pull your kids from the
nursery. You are at home now, so there is no use in paying
a nursery to keep your kids. Great...

One day down the road, your postman turn up with your Bank
statement, and you notice the $25.000.00 you had for
savings is decreasing slowly. You are now down to
$15.000.00 in six months, even though Jim is still working.

Common sense tells you, you're heading for a financial
fall. You decided to look for another job but can't find
anything to do... the country is in recession and jobs are
hard to get. What are you going to do?

Side Note: [Your dismissal may be a blessing in disguise
for you, but it is not apparent as yet. One thing i learned
to do, is to look into the negative for the positive. The
positive is always hidden within the negative...

Heck! you may get a job tomorrow that pays you twice as
much as you were working for before. Your new boss is more
respectful and understanding than the other guy... and you
start to wonder, why i did not find this job before?

You see how the positive came out of the negative? If your
previous boss did not fired you, you would not have found
this better job...]

But it is not my idea for you to work for someone else
again...

After tending to your kids in the morning and putting them
in their play-room, what next? Nothing to do, except
monitor the kids periodically...

You have lots of time on your hand to play with... so what
are you going to do with this time? Turn it into money, by
starting your own home-based business...

It is now time to stop using your computer for games,
Emails and surfing only, and turn it into a cash machine...

I a quite sure while you were surfing the net, you came
across many business opportunities and ignore them. Things
were sweet and dandy then. You were working and never
thought about starting a home business.

But now is the time to start thinking seriously about a
home business. You see, you can't get a job and your
savings are dwindling daily. You must put a stop to this
right now, or else, in the next six months, you will only
have $5,000,00 to live on. This will be a financial crisis
for you and your family.

You may be saying this guy is right, but i don't have any
business ideas... how do i start? My answer to you sister,
is if you don't have a business idea, use someone else's
own...

The Internet allows you to use other peoples ideas, and
make money quickly and easy, without investing a whole lot.
You can almost start your business without any cost to you.
It's true...

One simple business idea is - you can go to "Click bank",
sign up for a free account, look for products to promote
and start promoting them through writing articles or a
blog, and make good money.

The only thing you spend here is time, and you converted
that into money, without spending any... how's that?

But you don't want to make only a few bucks here and
there... you want a legitimate home-based business, that
will support you and your family for life with little
effort. This should be your main gold, financial freedom...

Here is where you have to start spending money but not
much...

The easiest business venture anyone can get into on the
Internet, is affiliate marketing. These programs are free
to join and they provide you with all marketing materials
and training necessary, for you to promote their business
and earn your commission.

I advise you if you opt for "affiliate marketing", to get
your own domain name, a website and hosting. You can
purchase a domain name for about $9.00 the most. "Web
hosting" hosting varies, but you can get a good package for
under $30.00.

You can get someone to design a website for you, but that
is going to take a great part of that $15.000.00 that you
can't afford. So what is your alternative? Purchase cheap
software and build your own website...

Those same articles you were promoting the "Click Bank"
products with, along with some others, can build your
website. Just plug them into your "Article Site Power Kit",
and less than 5 seconds, you have your website finish and
ready to upload to your "web host".

If you used the "Click Bank" idea i gave above, you would
have made some money, and made it quickly. If you had known
about P.P.C advertising, and used it, you would have made
even more money than you got.

This is where knowledge comes in... and it doesn't come
over-night! But within 30 days the most, you could be
marketing your business like a pro...

The idea here, is to find an affiliate program that you can
benefit from. It must be a program that is going to pay you
residual income monthly. provide you with a website, if
necessary,Provide you with all the training materials,
videos etc. so you can learn quickly and easy.

In other words, you want to be earning while learning...

Now tell me, after trying the "Click bank" idea, setting up
your website and you are making $500.00 to $2.500.00 a
month, and a job opportunity suddenly arise, will you take
that job?

If your answer is yes, i would like to be close to you, so
i can throw a bucket of ice-water from your head down, to
wake you from your sleep... You can not get rich working
for someone else...

Build A Money Making Niche Website

Niche Marketing at its best helps to solve people problems
daily. If you can come up with a product or service to
promote in a niche market, to help people solve their
problems, you will be off to a good start.

You will be able to build a money making niche website, and
you can quickly build an opt-in list of thousands of
potential customers. Everyone has problems of some sort...
they need help, some sort of advice.

If you are new to online marketing and came with your own
product ides or service, all is well and dandy... but if
you don't have a product or service to start with, start
searching the forums...

A good way to find out what people are looking for to solve
their problems, is to visit the forums. People discuss
their problems on forums.

They discuss problems that they wont talk to their best
friend about, so they can remain anonymous. And they look
for solutions online for this same reason, anonymity...

By visiting the forums, you can find out what people are
most concerned about. Take your notes and research the
product or service and provide it for them, earning your
commission in the process.

If you gather all the information you can find about the
topic, you can star to write articles on it, or have
articles written for you cheaply.

By writing lots of original content on the topic, you can
build a content rich website for that niche market, to help
with the problems you have identified, and that will serve
the needs of the people.

Another good way to use the forums to help you build a
niche market website, is to join as many forums as you can.
Identify the problems that are being discuss the most. Post
a question that will produce lots of responses, and use the
responses to write an e-book or report on the topic.

Many people will purchase an e-book that is filled with the
information they are looking for. They will also purchase
books that will tell them what other people, with the same
problem they have, are doing about their problems.

There are also some tools on the web that can help you find
niche markets quickly, saving you lots of time and effort.

Niche Marketing Is The Answer

Advertising is expensive and it is very unlikely that you
as a beginner, will be able to pump the type of money into
your business as you would like to in the beginning.

But if you have the the money to advertise your products
and services, go right ahead and start to market your
business. You can start to use pay-per-click for the best
results.

But if you don't have an advertising budget at the
beginning, what are you going to do? how are you to market
your business?

"Niche Marketing" is the answer! You see, we are unable to
advertise our products and services to the whole world,
simply because we don't have the money to do that.

But we don't have to do that either, to make money
online... thanks to the power of the Internet. We can start
our business and make money from it, without investing any
great sum of money.

All the money you really need, is to pay for a Domain name
and hosting for your site. This is less than $50.00 to set
up your business... and if done correctly, you can rake-in
a few thousand dollars a month.

Niche marketing affords you to market your products and
services to a limited audience. With a computer, Internet
connection, and a good idea, you can be in your own
business in no time...

The basic idea here, is to target the people (market) who
would be interested in purchasing the products or services
you have to offer. You can then advertise on a shoe-string
budget or use free advertising.

Finding a niche market for your product or service, should
not be difficult at all. All you have to do, is to think
about the people that your product or service will have
appeal to, and target them.

This will be your market, these are the people that will be
willing to purchase your products or services.

Niche marketing is simply selling a product or service to
those who want or need it most...

Deciding what niche market to get into should be based on
one simple principal. "There must be a demand for your
product or services". If there is no demand, there is no
market, and no money to be made.

Research your product and research your market, to find out
if you are offering them what they want.

As long as you are offering something that will improve
their standard of living, something that will make them
feel better or help them to solved a problem, you have it
made... you will be on your way to financial freedom...

Taking your family on that vacation is no longer out of
reach, it is only months down the road now...

Give Niche Marketing A Try

If you have the money to advertise your product and
services like the "Big boys" does, all is well and good.
But if you don't have this advertising budget is a
different story.

Advertising is expensive and as a beginner, it is unlikely
you have this type of money to throw into advertising. You
will not be able to compete with the big guns. So what are
we little guys supposed to do to make a living online?

"Niche Marketing" is the answer... we can't advertise our
products and services to the world at large, since we don't
have the funds to do that. But we don't have to do that
either, to make a decent living online. Thanks to the
Internet...

Niche Marketing is selling a specific product or service to
a limited audience. If you have a computer, Internet
connection and a good idea you can go into business for
yourself immediately.

All you have to do is to target the people who would be
most interested in purchasing your product or services. And
your advertising campaign, can be done on a shoe-string
budget, or free.

Finding the right niche for your products or services is
not that difficult. Just think about the audience your
product/service will have appeal to, and target them. This
is your market, these are the people who will be willing to
purchase what you have to offer.

Niche market is selling a product or service to those who
want or need it the most.

Deciding on what product or service to promote in a niche
market should be based on this simple principal. There
should be a demand for your product or service... if there
is no demand, there is no money to be made.

You should offer something that people actually need.
Something that will improve their standard of living,
something to make them feel better or help them to solve a
problem and you have it made...

If you can do this correctly, the better living standards
and family vacations is only months down the road.

Experience Marketers Looks For A Niche Market

Niche marketing is the buying or selling of a product or
service in a special area of demand. What this really means
is that a product or service is being sold to the people
who would be most interested in that particular product or
service.

Some big businesses uses niche marketing to sell their
products or services. For instance, a company that makes
computers and its accessories, may advertise an all-in-one
scanner/printer/copier to the home business computer user.
At the same time, they target larger businesses advertising
single function machines.

What makes niche marketing so attractive to sellers is, it
stretches their advertising budget a little further. It
cost them less to advertise to a specialized market, than
it does to advertise in a broader market.

Your niche marketing must be designed to meet the needs of
your specific targeted market, if you want to make money
quickly. Therefore, provide the products or services that
meet the demand of your niche and you will get better
results.

For instance, if you developed a product that when given to
"race horses", it makes them run faster and win races...
only those people who own race horses would be interested
in your product offer.

And 98% of these visitors are likely to purchase your
product. It is what they need to boost their winnings on
the track, and they will go for it...

On the other hand, try selling your product to people who
own ponies, mules, or donkeys and see what happen. Very
little sales, if any at all... all four legged animals, but
the wrong market... these people will not purchase your
product. Their animals are not for racing.

Niche marketing is an effective and cost efficient way to
advertise and sell your products or service, to a specific
audience. Buyers that will purchase your products or
services...

All experience marketers looks for a niche market or a
niche within that niche market, and focused all their
efforts there, giving the potential customer what they
want. And make good money by being focused in that specific
area of marketing.

Micro Niche Finder will provide you with profitable niche markets!

Subdomains For your Niche Markets

Building a niche empire is a good way to make serious cash
from your online home-based business. To do this, you have
to create lots of separate niche websites, each one
generating a profit. Added together, these profits can give
you a substantial regular income.

People who build these niche websites also have to buy a
domain name for each one, giving each site a separate
identity for search benefits.

Domain names are cheap, but if you set-up a hundred sites,
this is going to add up to a great sum yearly. It is also a
lot of hassle to find domain names that are not in use
already in use. It is also another hassle to set-up these
sub domains, and manage the annual renewal payments.

Some of us have found a much easier and cheaper way to deal
with these problems. The solution is using a web hosting
feature called "sub domains". A sub domain is a special
feature offered by some web hosts.

Your domain name looks something like this...
"dogbite.com", Using a sub domain name would look like
this... "fleapowder.dogbite.com".

You can put any text phrase you want to, in place of the
word "fleapowder". Usually, this would be the keyword of
the nice you are targeting. So you would expect the term,
"fleapowder.dogbite.com" to contain information and
articles about "fleapowder".

Please note that the "fleapowder subdomain", is hosted as
part of the "dogbite.com website. And it is hosted as a
subfolder, on my "dogbite.com, called "fleapowder".

Another thing to note is, as far as the search engines are
concerned, "fleapowder.dogbite.com is treated as a separate
website to "dogbite.com"

By using subdomains, you will still get all the benefits
from the search engines as a separate website, but without
all the hassles and cost involved.

this is an easy way to create new websites, which have the
name of the niche ("fleapowder" in this case), at the front
of its web address, in exactly the same way as if you had
buy a separate domain name for the site.

If you have a hundred sites, you can use this method to
save 1000's a year on domain names...

To use subdomains, you have to find a host who supports
them, but many web host provides this feature now, at no
extra cost to you. It is still going to take you time and
effort to create each subdomain, using a technical looking
control panel.

So how do you get around the technicalities? By using a
software tool to completely automate everything for you...

There is a software tool you can use to do this. It is
called "subdomain creator".

Just enter the domain name, user name and password for your
hosting account into the software. The soft ware will
remember this information for future use...

You then enter the name of the subdomain you want to create
into the large box provided. For example, to create a
"fleapowder" subdomain, you just enter "fleapowder" into
the box.

You can enter as many subdomain names as you would like to
into the box, press create the subdomains button, and the
software tool will create all of them for you
automatically.

With this simple software tool, you can set up hundreds of
subdomains, with just a few minutes work... it is the easy
way to harness the power of subdomains, while saving you
time and money.

Is Building A List Difficult For You?

How many times have you heard that the money is in the
list? Yes, it's true... building your list is essential if
you want to have a successful home-based business online.

You may have tried building your list already, only to find
out it's not an easy task. It can take you a few months or
years to build a list of a few thousand subscribers.

But there are marketers out there on the Internet who have
built their list to hundreds of thousands, and in some few
cases, over a million subscribers.

Have you ever wonder how they can achieve this? It's not
really a secret. They use a strategy called "Viral List
Building"...

Viral list building is a simple strategy, but you must have
your own product or service with lots of people searching
for it, and a way to force these potential subscribers to
subscribe to your "News Letter". That's all there is to
it...

To use this strategy requires three components...

* You must have a great product or service that appeal to
your market and lots of people want it. They must be
jumping over each other backs to get your product or
service.

* Find a way to spread it around the Internet to get lots
of users to use the product or service.

* And most important, is to find a way to get every user to
subscribe. If your prospects are not subscribing, you would
not be able to build your list. And if you can't build your
list, you would not be able to make the type of money you
want.

This may sound a bit tough to put together, but it's not.
All you really have to do is to use a "Viral Master List
Builder" and you are through to the finals.

Residual Income Home Business...

If you know anything about online marketing, then you would
appreciate that making residual income would be better than
making a one time payment. Residual income pays you a
guaranteed monthly income.

Now when looking for a residual income business
opportunity, there are a few things to look for. Make sure
you are representing a legitimate online business, that
will pay you on time each month.

Make sure that you are being provided with the marketing
materials to help you market the product effectively, and
there must be lots of training materials and support. A
good residual income business opportunity will provide all
that is necessary for you to make money easy and quickly.

What makes a residual income home business opportunity
attainable for anyone is the training. If you are a
complete newbie online, you can follow the training that is
provided for you. You should follow the training if you
want to really succeed with your home business.

Now that you have found the ideal residual income home business
opportunity, what else do you need? Your personal TOOLS!

I recommend you get your own website and hosting set-up
first. If you have your own website, you can place a
subscriber form on it to collect your prospects names and
email addresses, and start building your list. The idea
here is, if you have your own list, you can send them
offers anytime you choose to.

You will need an auto responder to follow-up with your
list. This should be pre-filled with your follow-up
messages. Make sure your messages are directly related to
the product you are promoting. Give your prospects the
information they need, loaded with the benefits they will
get from using your product.

Many affiliates miss this fact... they join an affiliate
program and start promoting the products without this
knowledge. They are loosing money daily, and i would say
that they are even loosing more, if they are using PPC
advertisement for the product.

When you send your prospects directly to the product page
without capturing their names and email addresses, you are
leaving your money on the table for the program owner. He
now owns your prospects, which you paid for through PPC,
and will market his products to them for years to come at
your expense.

It is true, that with a residual income opportunity, you
will get pay a commission each month someone you refer,
remains a member. But you should still collect their
contact information... you own them!

A good residual income home business opportunity program would
have everything pre-configured for you. All you would need
to do is just copy, paste and send some visitors, making
sure you have a way to capture their information first.

As long as you can get traffic to your site, a residual
income business is the way to go... some programs owners
even teaches you how to generate traffic to your site.

Affiliate Fire Extinguisher

Thousands of affiliates are burning more than half of their
commissions and they don't even realize it.

Most of us online have heard about the benefits of securing
our affiliate links, by hiding them in redirect pages,
cloaking pages or some other method.

Some of us use software to create these solutions which can
vary from page generators to tracking scripts. But there is
one piece of important information you will never find
mention on web pages selling these types of tools.

If you are using any tool or script to secure your
affiliate links, you could be loosing more than half of
your commissions as a result.

Most of us don't realize this... even the successful
affiliates! But not all affiliates links are the same.
There are many technologies and scripts behind affiliate
programs, all with their own unique properties.

These properties have an impact on what methods can be
safely used to secure and promote our affiliates links. So
if we use a strategy that is not compatible with the
affiliate program script, you will be loosing some of your
commissions as a result.

This issue affects every single software tool on the
Internet that claims to help protect or secure affiliates
links. Research on the Internet has shown that there are
thousands of affiliates who are loosing more than half of
their commissions to this problem.

The hurtful part about this is, none of these affiliates
have a clue what is happening to their commissions...

This problem tells us that it absolutely important, to make
sure we are using the right solutions to secure our
affiliate links. But there is no easy way to check this, by
looking at the link itself.

So i uses the Affiliate Fire Extinguisher to give me a full
detailed analysis of any affiliate links i am using. This
help me to save my commissions from burning-up.

This technique provides a report that tells you what
solutions are supported by the affiliate program script
behind your link, helping you to eliminate the risk of
loosing your commissions to technological related problems.

You can now instantly determine the optimum strategies for
success for each affiliate link.

It is really heart-burning to discover, after spending so
much money on P.P.C, advertising your affiliate link, you
are not reaping the full benefits of your commissions.

Make the Leap to Affiliate Marketing Success

Make the Leap to Affiliate Marketing Success
Copyright © Stone Evans, The Home Biz Guy

http://www.PluginProfitSite.com/main-12596>


If you are going to become a successful affiliate on the
Internet, you need 3 "intangibles." These are things that
must come from WITHIN you.

===> Intangible 1 <===

First, you must have a strong WHY.

Why must you make affiliate marketing work? What is driving
you? What is it that you CAN'T have in your life anymore
and/or what is it that you absolutely MUST HAVE now?

For me, I couldn't stand working 12+ hours a day anymore
and missing the experience of my children growing up. I also
absolutely HAD TO HAVE the freedom of being able to control
my life and finances through a little box that I could carry
with me anywhere in the world and not be tied to anyone's
time pressures or demands but my own. That was my carrot and
my stick. I felt a great pain deep in my gut of missing out
on my children's lives and the incredible freedom that
succeeding in this business would provide for me. I found my
why. You MUST find yours.

===> Intangible 2 <===

You must BELIEVE that it is possible.

If you don't believe that it's POSSIBLE for you to make
money with affiliate programs or make your living on the
Internet, you won't. It's that simple.

For me, figuring out that it was possible was just a matter
of realizing that many other people were ALREADY making
great money online. If they could do it, I could too. It
would just be a matter of figuring out what those people
were doing and then adapting it to my situation.

There is no shortage of undeniable PROOF that people
(millions of them) are making money online with affiliate
programs. Just get online and do some research and you'll
find countless testimonials and stories of REAL PEOPLE
making real money on the Internet. Or head to your local
bookstore and you'll find the same documented evidence of
this fact. Truth is, it's getting easier and easier to make
money online with affiliate programs.

I've always said that "affiliate marketing" is the job of
the future. In the "old" days, you had to go to a
potential employer, apply for the position and hope for the
best. Now you can simply go to any company you want, fill
out their affiliate application and start work immediately.
Affiliates are the new working class. Believe me, making
money with affiliate programs or making your living on the
Internet is WAY MORE than possible. It is pretty much (or
will be soon enough) unavoidable now. Affiliate marketing is
the "job" of the future that's already here TODAY.

===> Intangible 3 <===

You must be willing to MAKE THE LEAP.

Ready, FIRE, then aim... This is the operating philosophy
you MUST adopt to succeed with affiliate marketing.

That's backwards for most people who like to aim before
they fire. The fact is the Internet is a moving target...
The only thing constant about it is change. You need to stop
analyzing the game and simply jump into it. You can't learn
from the outside... You have to be IN THE RING to truly
understand it.

The lesson here is that you will never really be READY to
start an affiliate marketing business. You simply have to
start one. This is what I call "Making the Leap."

The good news is that the cost of failure on the Internet is
very small. In the "brick and mortar" world you need to
evaluate things very carefully before you decide to open up
a business. It's almost always necessary to invest
thousands of dollars to get an offline business off the
ground. However, on the Internet you can often start a
successful business for less than $100. The Plug-In Profit
Site is a great example of this as you can see here:
http://www.PlugInProfitSite.com/main-12596

You simply need get IN THE GAME... Each moment that you stay
"out there," you're wasting valuable time that you could
be learning and skills necessary to become a successful
affiliate marketer. In fact, if you're not in the game yet,
you're ALREADY behind the times. Make the leap to becoming
a successful affiliate marketer today!

the world make money online with affiliate programs. If you
can follow 3 easy steps, you can get your own custom
website, autoresponder (email follow-up software) and

Tips On Running Your Home-Based Business!

Many people would like to start their own business, but
dread the idea of becoming their own boss. They do not
believe they can make it on their own. Others who believe
they can make it on their own, usually claim they do not
have enough money to start, or they can not get the finance
to start. They are some who took the challenge, believing
they had things under control and end up failing, simply
because they did not had a business plan to follow. As
someone said before me, " if you fail to plan, then you
plan to fail "

They are those who had foresight, intuition and a solid
business plan to follow. They knew the Internet provided the
opportunity for them to start their home-based business with
little capital or for free. So the above statements were
meaningless to them. In their mind, they never existed.
These people are working at their home-based business
successfully and raking in thousands of dollars monthly.

A home-based business does not have to take-up all of your
time at first. You can have your home-based business under
flexible working hours. It can be done during your spare
time, or before and after your working hours. By starting
out small, and on a part time basis, you will be assured of
your finances, even if the business does not pick up and
make money for you right away. A business takes time to
mature.

Every business venture is a risk, and your home-based
business is no different. But the advantage of setting up a
home-based business, is you can do it on a shoestring budget
or for FREE. Thus, making the risk involved much lesser.

While a home-based business can be rewarding financially, it
can also bring challenges and frustrations to you as a
businessman. A home-based business man may have more time on
his hands, but he faces the task of making sure his business
earns, or else he loses his financial security. Some
home-based businesses do not take off immediately, and the
rewards can only be reaped after a certain period of time.

Working or doing business at home can be lonely for some
home-based worker. You could find it strange to be working
alone, after several years of working in an office with
other people.

How to choose the right home-based business to get into?

You should make a list of your skills and talents, as well
as your experiences, either at work or in business. Create
at list of at least ten business ideas you are interested
in, and cross this with your talent and skills list. You
will have a good idea of what business is ideal for you,
given your talent and experience. Do your research on the
marketing possibilities of the business ideas you have
chosen. A good business idea must be able to respond to, or
create a market need. Must be able to last for a long time,
even if it is highly competitive. And you must have an edge
over the others.

When choosing your business venture, consider whether you
have the financial capacity to operate and maintain the
business, before it can give you profit. Most business do
not automatically become money earners, and you the owner
have to sacrifice time and financial resources, to help the
business grow.

It is also best to choose a business venture that would
match to your personal situation. If you have children in
the house and your prime consideration in starting a home
based business is to be with your kids, then choose a
business that would not take you out of the house. It is
also best to brief family members on the requirements of the
home-based business, so they would know how to behave
themselves, once the business starts.

Running you own home-based business is a different ball game
from your office work. You have to keep yourself highly
motivated and confident, because you do not have a boss
breathing down your neck, to see things are being done well.
You have to be a critical of your methods and your schedule,
to make a home business work.

Selling

businesses have some form of selling. Selling is as
important or even more important than the invention of a
product. Without the right selling skills, a good product
can go to waste.

Investigate on the companies that are selling the same type
of products as you are, and see how they are doing it. Study
how effective your selling approach would be, by studying
their strengths and weaknesses. But the real gist of selling
is in knowing your target market. Know your customers needs
so that you can reach out to them.

Marketing

Marketing is always an important part of any business. Your
marketing plan will be vital to your home-based business.
With effective marketing, your business will be off to a

around your neighborhood. Post them on bulletin boards. And

Avoiding Home Business Scams !

Yes, you have heard that highly tempting proposition at
least once... with this job or business opportunity, you can
make money quickly and in huge amounts. You do not work as
hard as you are working now, and you can do it from the
comfort of your own home. But are we to trust such offers?
How can anyone tell if a home business offer, is fake or for
real? Here are some of the most common business scams, you
should be on the lookout for and avoid them.

The “Envelope Stuffing” Scam

This is one of the most infamous of all home-based business
scams. This one requires you to send a small fee to a
company who will send you a specific number of envelopes to
stuff. You are then promised to be paid a fee for every
envelope that you stuff. But more often than not, the money
never comes in. Instead of earning, you have actually lost
your money, because you have paid the company an initial
fee.

The “Call 1-900-“ Scam

Advertisements for this scam will tell you to call a 1-900
number in order to obtain more information on a
home-business offer, or a work-at-home job. But 1-900
numbers, unlike 1-800 ones, are not toll fee and requires a
fee. So, you end up losing your money by just making the
call. And the information they have promised you? Often such
information is next to trivial, and totally useless.

The Scam that Turns You into a Scammer

With this one, you will receive an email promising you lots
of earnings, by just using your computer at home to send out
some emails. But you must send them a small fee to receive
some instructions.

What you get here for the fee you paid them, are some
instructions on how you can send the same email you
received, to other addresses. And the payback you get?
Non-existent.

Some Tips on How You Can Avoid Home-Business Scams

1. If it seems too good to be true, chances are, it probably
is. If a home business idea, or work-at-home-job, offers you
huge amounts of money for doing next to nothing, chances
are, what you will actually get in return is next to
nothing. Or worse, you would have lost your money as well.

2. Never pay a company for the chance to work with them.
Remember, you are looking for a home-based business, because
you want to be paid. Not the other way around.

3. If it is spam, it is most likely a scam. There is only
one thing to do with spam, and that is to delete it.

A home-based business can be a very lucrative and fulfilling
venture, but make sure that you are starting one that is
legitimate and with actual worth. Otherwise, you will
realize that you have left your job only to be taken
advantage of.

Basic Home-based Business Productivity Tips!

You finally did it! You’ve taken a brave, big step and have
started your own home-based business.

There’s no turning back at this point, and the stakes have
undeniably been raised. It’s time to reap the rewards of
your courage and hard work. It’s time to earn money. It’s
time to get productive.

Here are some tips to help you increase the productivity of
your business and receive what you deserve from your
home-based business.

Make a schedule and stick to it.

Having flexible hours is one of the best benefits you can
have, running your home-based business. But your flexible
hours can lead to the failure of your business, if you don’t
know how to manage your time properly.

Don’t you think for one moment, that because you control
your own time, you don’t have to keep to a schedule, or
stick to a routine. You should set a particular time of the
day for your business activities, Let,s say every morning
from 7 to 12 am is good.

This is important if you’re now
getting accustomed to be working at home business. And, you
should stick to that schedule as much as you can. Don’t be
tempted to put off your work for a later time in the day,
because “something new comes up”. Don't be distracted,
something new to you will always come up. All you have to do
is devote a certain amount of your time everyday to your
business, and you can spend the rest of the time in any
other activities of your choice.


Try avoiding these distractions.

Don’t work in front of the TV or while listening to the
radio. These could distract you form your work. Just because
you’re free to do whatever you want, because you are
working for yourself, doesn’t mean you should do whatever
you want. You must fulfill your business obligations for the
day. And until you’re done with them, keep away from those
things that might distract you from your business
activities.

Set goals for your business.

You may have a goal that you plan to achieve in the long
run, but it is wise to keep your goals realistic. Don't
fall for the get rich quick scam. You have to work hard to
achieve your goals. Nothing comes easy, and everything has a
learning curve. You can aim for one objective daily, for
instance, sending out your emails to potential clients on
Monday, or finalizing your business portfolio on Tuesday.
You should also have short-term goals to help you achieve
your long-term goal.

Have fun.

Avoid becoming stressed out running your home-based
business. The reason why you started your home-based
business in the first place, is because you wanted to be
free from the regular troubles of your previous day job. If
you handle the running your business with passion and
determination, you and your business are bound to succeed.

Have You Decided To Start Your Home-based Business ?

Now ! You have decided to start your own home-based
business, but you are not sure what kind of business to
start and how to start it.You want your business to work,
but you do not know what to invest in it to get it to work.
And, as if you did not have enough problems, you have very
little money and do not want to spend it all on a business,
that might fail.

So what are you to do?

You will need to provide leverage for your business. But the
best part is, home-based business leverage does not always
have to mean money. There are many other ways to give your
business the extra push it needs to get it started.

Here are some ways to provide that leverage for your
home-based business.

Leverage your business with your time. Time equates to MONEY!


Find a home-based business that allows you to invest your
time, instead of large amounts of money. Choose a
home-business idea that you can use your spare time as
capital, along with any small monetary investment. This is
less risky, and has lots of potential for providing you with
a generous income.

Make sure that the home-based business you decide to start,
not only allows you to leverage your time, but it should
allow you to leverage your time wisely. This refers to you
investing a small amount of time and money, but reaping
large rewards for your efforts.

Leverage your business with your money.

Because you do not have a lot of money, does not mean you
can not use the little that you have, to provide you with
greater returns. You can do this by finding a home-based
business that will allow you to use small sums of your
money. By investing the little capital that you have in a
home-based business, you may be able to earn maximum returns
with your minimal investment.

Before you venture into a particular home-based business,
you should study your options carefully. Research the
industries available and determine the most lucrative one,
and consider venturing into that.

You have to a lot of effort into your business to get it to
work for you !

Do not be tempted by these “get rich fast” proposals. They
are risky, and will leave you with less money than you had,
when you first started into them. You should appreciate the
value of hard work and make sure you put a lot of it in your
business. It is said that with good quality, comes
excellence, and excellence pay's off in the end. "Good
quality = Excellence = Payday...

Venturing into a home-based business, should be a
fulfilling and rewarding experience for you. Remember to
have fun, and be passionate about your business. Problems
will arise constantly, but with the right positive mental
attitude, you will make it through as a success, rather
than a failure.

Tip:
As the saying goes here in my country "Barbados"... You do
not have to have "BIG MONEY" to venture into your
home-based business. You can actually start and run your
home-based business without "one red cent", using
affiliate programs. With affiliates programs, you do not
even need a website, and you can use free advertising to
promote your business. Here is a program you can
investigate, and it is FREE to join:

Is A Home-based Business Right For Me ?

Almost everyone is talking about a Home-based Business, and
some giving it a try. You’ve probaly heard numerous success
stories of people earning more than they used to, from the
comfort of their own homes. You’re almost tempted to leave
your job, and embark on the home-based business venture
yourself. But you’re not sure you’ve got what it takes...

First thing is, a home-based business is not for everyone.
Many have succeeded in it, but there are just as many who
fail. They either ventured into their home-based business
too quickly, and unprepared. Or they just could not handle
its demands. In the end, the promise of the rewards of a
home-based business was nowhere in sight.

You don’t have to make the same mistake! Here are some
questions you can ask yourself, to help you find out if you
got what it takes, to start your own home-based business.

Do you think you can mind your own home-based business, and
make it successful?

Once you have started your own home-based business, you will
have to give the business the attention it needs for it to
be successful. You will probably be working alone, which
means there will be no more lively conversations with your
officemates around the water cooler, and no more chatting
about last night’s TV shows over lunch. So If you are the
kind of person who like to thrive in such kinds of social
interaction, chances are, you may find that working on your
own home-based business, might become boring.

With your home-based business, you will be trading your
office interaction with family interaction. If you would
rather spend time with your kids and your spouse, than with
co-workers, then a home-based business might just be right
for you.

Do you need someone else to motivate you to reach your
goals?

Do you find yourself playing the role of “follower” instead
of “leader” more often? Are you happy with such a situation?
If so, you might not be cut out to start a home-based
business of your own. Your home-based business needs a
leader... Being your own boss means you’re going to have to
motivate yourself to reach your business goals. So if you
are more comfortable taking orders from someone else,
instead of you doing the ordering around yourself, it’s best
you stick to your day job.

Are you happy and comfortable with your current job?

As the saying goes, “if it ain’t broke, don’t fix it”. If
your current job is able to pay for the bills, allow you
enough time for yourself, and your family, allow you to take
your family on vacations etc. then there’s probably no need
for you to start out from scratch, by putting up a business
of your own.

In the end, only you and you alone,can determine if you got
what it takes to start a home-based business.

Simple Bookkeeping For Home-based Business !

Bookkeeping can be somebody's nightmare. People who are not
good at numbers do not like to do bookkeeping. These people
rely on others to do their bookkeeping for them. But that's
for a fee of course.

In starting or managing a home business, bookkeeping is one
important thing that you should not forget about.
Bookkeeping, when you really think about it, is very simple.
There's nothing more to it than recording your daily
financial activities, like the money you earned and the
money you spent. It is similar to balancing a checkbook.

If you maintain a good bookkeeping records of your business,
you can accurately monitor your income against your
expenses. You can see outright if you are making some profit
or not. Here are some easy steps to handle the bookkeeping
of your business in no time.

1. Open a business checking account. Go to your local bank
and open an account under your business name. Sign the
necessary papers and get the account registration card
together with your account information. Get your imprinted
checks as well.

2. Get an columnar notebook or a simple notebook. Start
jotting down your daily income and expenses. Start each
summary with the current date. It would be best if you start
from the day you first opened for business.

3. Make two columns, one for income an one for expenses.
Then proceed in writing down your income for the day, and
your expenses on the other side. Tally everything at the end
of the list. You can also put there the difference of the
two, and label it deposit, or however you intend to save the
money.

4. Accurately maintain a daily, monthly, and yearly log.
Just continue compiling these information. At the end of the
month, summarize all your earnings. Do the same at the end
of the year. This is going to be a good basis for inventory
too. And also for tax purposes.

That's it! That's all it takes to do simple bookkeeping.
Isn't it similar in writing a personal diary? Only on this
one, it's all about money. It doesn't take to be a math
wizard or an accounting major to do these simple steps. You
can also read more on some bookkeeping materials or enlist
in a bookkeeping correspondence course. Bookkeeping can be
very simple. You just need to get the hang of it.

Tips On Successful internet Home Business !


On average, 60 million individuals access the web, with
growing millions of “newcomers” and thousands of new
internet businesses being set up every month.

With this large and increasing audience, several have
ventured on an internet home business and became
millionaires. More and more are now embarking on online home
business opportunities with hope to become successful.

Vision, wisdom, innovation and hard work are techniques and
skills online home business gurus have in common and used
from the beginning of their online home business experience.


Most homebased business gurus began as small home business
entrepreneurs, with very little capital, but nevertheless,
succeeded.

Jim Daniels

Started with $300 investment, he focused mainly on content
and really gave clients what they paid for. While most
internet marketers focus on trying hard in selling the
products, Jim focuses always on imparting free valuable
information to his customers to earn their trust prior to
selling.

Jim Edwards

He authors numerous ebooks covering subjects like article
writing, internet marketing, ebook publishing and many
others.

His recent product called the “minisite creator”, is a web
tool allowing individuals with no experience in webmastering
to create quickly a very functional website intented to
build sales.

Rosalind Gardner

With “affiliate websites”, she made about 435,000 dollars
each year and has written recently, an ebook entitled "Super
Affiliate Handbook" wherein it teaches accurately how one
can copy or match her success.

Here are the gurus combined common guidelines in developing
good habits for internet home business success:

1. Plan your business. Set an attainable periodical and
long term goals, establish your budget and as much as
possible stick to it.
Do some periodical checking so to verify any changes from
your business plan and carry out remedial actions.

2. Put up a moderate initial investment. Use what you
already have, for instance, your PC need not be “top of the
line”. Instead of renting space, use a corner in the living
room, bedroom or kitchen. Spend prudently.

3. Innovate. Yes, you can also bring in innovation unto your
business. Study all aspects of your operation then change
some ways of managing your enterprise.

4. Choose services and products that give a solution to
people’s problems. It a known fact that information is most
favored by consumers. Keep researching.

5. When you fail, try again. Homebased internet business is
definitely not a quick-get-rich system. It will take time
but with hard work, it will definitely come.

Do what the gurus did. That is, acquire wisdom by learning,
be trustworthy, have good supply of valuable information,
and give yourself time to acquire the experience so to grant
you knowledge.

Explode Your Business With Viral Marketing!
by Justin Blake, CEO ViralShock.com

Creativity.

This is one virtue a site must possess to lead the race in
the ruthless competition in the Internet based business.
With so much competition and rivalry going on, every method
of marketing must be employed and utilized.

It doesn’t matter if you have a killer product or a
fantastically designed website, if people don’t know that
you exist, it doesn’t matter, and you are not going to make
it big. Worst of all, you business could just get killed.

While there are so many methods and schemes used by so many
e-commerce sites today, there are still some of those that
can help you with an extra boost in the popularity ratings.
One of these is the so called Viral Marketing.

While the term Viral easily depicts a virus, a word very
much dreaded by all computer owners, it is not what it
seems. You do not actually use a computer virus to spread
your business; on the contrary it just might kill you.
Everyone has had enough of all those pop up ads and spyware.


Viral Marketing Overview

Viral Marketing also known otherwise as Viral Advertising is
a marketing technique used to build the public awareness of
one’s product or company. They use many forms of media to
reach out to the public without actually promoting the
product by riding on in other forms of addictive means that
could get a person hooked and be obliged or amused to
actually pass it on, with the product or company
advertisement along with it.

In a nutshell, companies ride on the idea that if people
like the content of a media they will pass it on to their
friends and family. They sponsor the certain media, such as
a cool flash game, funny video, amusing story and such,
which one may pass on to another with the company brand or
logo or the products description or any other content to
help promote the company or its product.

Viral marketing has become a popular means of advertising
and marketing because they are relatively low cost. To avoid
being tagged as spam mail, viral marketing counts on the
eagerness of one person to pas on the product. If a person
sees the name of the person they know as the sender, they
won’t block it and open it as well.

Many companies offer incentives such as discounts and
rebates when they help in spreading their viral marketing.
They rely on the number of recipients a viral marketing gets
from one person in determining the amount or number of
incentive they can be attributed with.

Using Viral Marketing to your advantage

The main and foremost advantage of viral marketing is that
you get a lot of publicity and public awareness about your
site and your company. You get to generate a flow of traffic
that are potential customers. With a little ingenuity and
imagination, plus some incentives or prizes, you can reach
out to a great number of people and announce your
existence.

Most sites and companies are catching on to the
effectiveness of Viral Marketing and Advertising. Not using
it could kill your business. Along with other schemes and
methods in promoting your site, like Search Engine
Optimization and such, viral marketing could easily push you
ahead in the rating games.

Viral Marketing could be a sneaky way to get people to know
about you and your company. You get them to pass your
advertisement along. They are also very low cost that not
investing in it could be downright a business suicide. All
it takes is a great idea, a good addicting game, a funny
story many ideas are still out there. Create gossip or a
buzz. Many movies are promoted by using scandals and gossips
to make them more popular. Remember the movie “The Blair
Witch Project”?

Many big companies have tried viral marketing and have had
many success stories with it. A classic example is
Microsoft’s Hotmail. They were the first known big company
to utilize the scheme and it has worked wonders for them.

Now it’s your turn to use viral marketing to work wonders
for you. Act now and reap the benefits Viral Marketing will
provide for you and your sales figures.

Setting Up A Home Business Without Spending A Fortune !

The cost of starting up a home-based business need not be
extravagant. In fact putting up a home business from home is
much cheaper than renting office space or a shop downtown.
Many entrepreneurs often do not have much money at hand, to
start a large business from home. However, just having a
dream is sometimes the biggest capital one may need to start
a business from home.

Like any other business enterprise, cost is a major
consideration that should not be left unrestrained. Many
people who go into business for themselves tend to lose
track, and start spending on a variety of items even before
the business has had the chance to take off. Before starting
a home business, it is best to create a financial plan which
should incorporate where the money should be invested first,
in order to make a profit.

Setting up a home business should be approached with
caution. Heading into the home business without taking into
account costs and income will could lead to failure.
Remember, you must be prudent with regards to expenses, so
as not to go over board, and at the same, allow the business
to grow steadily and strong.

Cutting Costs setting Up a Home Business.

The costs involved in setting up a home-based business, will
depend largely on the type of business. However, in most
cases, entrepreneurs can use most of the items already found
within the home, to help cut down on costs. Most homes today
already have the technical equipment, like computers,
printers, and fax machines. These items will be sufficient
enough to cover some of the basic office equipment, until
substantial profits are met. In fact, using these items can
cut down the initial cost of putting up a home business by
about half.

As much as possible, keep extras to a minimum, such as
business cards, stationary as well as supplies. Although it
can be exciting to have one’s own name on a card as business
owner or manager, the costs of these items can add up to a
considerable amount, when ordered at a professional shop.
Fortunately, there are numerous software graphics programs,
that are simple enough for even a non-technical person to
operate.

The cost of advertising a home business is another expense
that most entrepreneurs can keep at a minimum. The World
Wide Web is a wonderful medium to advertise a home-based
business, as it does not cost much to set-up a website.

Tips On Running Your Home-based Business !

A home-based business does not have to take-up all of your
time at first. You can have your home-based business under
flexible working hours. You can do it during your spare
time, or before and after your working hours. By starting
out small, and on a part time basis, you are assured of your
finances, even if the business does not pick up and make
money for you right away. A business takes time to mature.

Every business is a risk, and your home-based business is no
different. The advantage of setting up a home-based
business, is you can do it on a shoestring budget. Thus,
making the risk involved much lesser.

While a home-based business can be rewarding financially, it
can also bring challenges and frustrations to you as a
businessman. A home-based businessman may have more time on
his hands, but he faces the task of making sure his business
earns, or else he loses his financial security. Some
home-based businesses do not take off immediately, and the
rewards can only be reaped after a certain period of time.

Working or doing business at home can be lonely for the
home-based worker, who could find it strange to be working
alone, after several years of working in an office with
other people.

How to choose the right home-based business to get into?

Make a list of your skills and talents, as well as your
experiences either at work or in business. Create at list
of at least ten business ideas you are interested in, and
cross this with your talent and skills list. You will have
a good idea of what business is ideal for you, given your
talent and experience. Do research on the marketing
possibilities of the business ideas you have chosen. A good
business idea must be able to respond to, or create a market
need. Must be able to last for a long time, even if it is
highly competitive. And you must have an edge over the
others.

When choosing a business venture, consider whether you have
the financial capacity to operate and maintain the
business, before it gives you profit. Most business do not
automatically become money earners, and you the owners have
to sacrifice time and financial resources, to help the
business grow.

It is also best to choose a business venture that would
match to your personal situation. If you have children in
the house and your prime consideration in starting a home
based business is to be with your kids, then choose a
business that would not take you out of the house. It is
also best to brief family members on the requirements of the
home-based business, so they would know how to behave once
the business starts.

Running you own home-based business is a different ball game
from your office work. You have to keep yourself properly
motivated and confident, because you do not have a boss to
see things are being done well. You have to be a critical
of your methods and your schedule, to make a home business
work.

Establish Your Home-based Business!

Why keep work for someone else and commuting to an office
daily, when you can establish you very own home-based
business, right in the comfort of your home? This would
give you flexible hours for working, lesser expense on
traveling to and from work, and no boss breathing down your
neck everyday.

Imagine you are working as a sales employee for my
Company,"Ellfit Enterprises". You works up to the wee hours
of the morning, so you can sell advertisement space, worth
at least a million for the smallest size. When the sale
goes through, you get $20 worth of commission. What you are
actually doing, is enriching my Company "Ellfit Enterprises"
through your efforts, but you only get your base pay, plus
the $20 commission---that's all you get for the millions of
dollars you brought into my Company, "Ellfit Enterprises"
coffers.

Now, if you decide to establish a home-based business,
similar to what you are doing now for my Company, "Ellfit
Enterprises," you get your old clients and build up your
mailing list, you will have more money to take home each
month, than if you remain working for my Company, "Ellfit
Enterprises".

If you are unsure about your business prospects, but are
ready to start a home-based business, you can do it on a
part time basis. This means you will start your home-based
business venture, but still hold your eight to five job for
financial security, until such time you are confident enough
about your business venture.

While a home-based business will not necessarily make you a
millionaire over-night , ( there is nothing wrong if it
happens), it has numerous benefits, like flexible work
hours, no boss breathing down your neck every day, savings
on fuel and time going to and from the office, and most of
all, you get an income that will be dependant on your
creativity, ingenuity and industriousness. If you done it
for my business "Ellfit Enterprises", you can do it for
yourself...

The trend today is a home-based business, using the
Internet. There are people who have become very successful
in their Internet home-based business. But if your
home-based business is not built around your hobbies,
skills, interests and experience, it may be difficult to
achieve the level of success you are seeking.

It is very easy to say that you want to start a home-based
business, but deciding on the kind of home-based business
you will have, is the most difficult part. First thing, you
must be realistic and take stock of what you have available
in terms of your skills, interests and experiences. If you
have a hobby that can be turned into a home-based business
venture, then that is better. It will mean lesser capital
and effort, since you already have the expertise. Get into
a home based-business that you will enjoy doing.

There are many hobbies that can be turned into a home-based
business. Like baking, gardening, cross stitching, and
catering etc.etc. If you are a licensed professional, you
can offer your services as a lawyer, doctor or designer. If
you do not like selling, you can try training. And there are
many other areas of interest, which you can turn into a
home-based business.

Are You Ready To Invest In A Home-based Business?

If you are tired of having to wake up early every morning,
so you can avoid heavy traffic, and arrive at your work
place, before the clock says you are too late, for today's
session... Then, there might be a solution here to that
problem. But it takes guts, hard work and determination.
"Start A Home-based Business."

You can avoid all the hassle associated with going to
somebody else office everyday, by investing in your own
home-based business. A home based business is a business
venture, that is based right in the comfort of your own
home. No more commuting...

Many people dream of a home-based business, not only because
it offers them an opportunity to work at home, and avoid
them the hassle of traveling to work everyday, but because
of it financial rewards. A home based business may be risky
because you never know what fate awaits your business
venture. But, a person who has successfully established a
home based business, has struck gold.

A home based business affords you the freedom to do as you
please, and allow you to operate your business using your
own style and skills. And the beauty of this is that, a home
based business requires very little capital and low
overhead. You can also start your home-based business
absolutely free of cost-without one red cent- and start
making money. The only investment required, is your time.
Compared to a mall-based business, which requires expensive
rentals, a home based business requires no rent at all, and
this is a favorable factor in the success of your business.


A person starting up a home-based business, should choose a
business which he/she is already familiar with. Or it can be
his/her hobby. In this case, it is presumed that you
already have most of the equipment needed to start your
home-based business. Most homes already have telephone
connections, so using a telephone for your home based
business, would no longer be an additional expense.

If you are already equipped with a computer and printer, you
can use them in your home-based business, either for
printing marketing leaflets, or for setting up an inventory.
You can even make your computer the basis of your new
home-based business, catering to the printing and computer
requirements of your neighborhood.

A home-based business does not only allow for minimal
capital, but it also creates savings for the businessman.
These savings can be in the form of your budget for fuel,
working uniforms, vehicle depreciation and time, which would
be otherwise expended, if you work somewhere else.

If you are working for someone else, you get a fixed amount
every month, no matter the amount of effort you put into
your work. But if you own your own home-based business, what
you earn will depend on how industrious you are, and how
dedicated you are to your business. Simply said, the more
effort you put into your home-based business, the better
your financial rewards will be.

Articles With Hyperlinks!

Articles With Hyperlinks!

http://www.ideal-homebiz-products.com/start

Writing articles is an excellent way to build your
reputation, as an expert in your field. It is also a good
way to build profits, into any affiliate program you are
promoting. The key is to write informative articles,
without having them sound like advertisements.

There are many ways to incorporate your affiliate
hyperlinks in an article submitted for publication. The
most common and acceptable way to do this, is by including
a short bio of yourself as author of the article, along
with a hyperlink to the site of your choice.

This will build your reputation as an expert. And your
readers will go to the recommended website for more
information. You can also tell your readers that as an
expert, you highly recommend this certain product or
service, and that you have used it yourself.

This is called the author resource box, and it is standard
practice with almost all article directories and submission
sites. If you are submitting to individual sites, make sure
to include a disclaimer along with your article, that the
resource box must be included, if the article is to be
republished in any blog, ezine or newsletter.

Another way is to write a review, of a certain product or
service, and tell the reader that they can have a look at
the product, by following the link in the article.

Many article directories will allow up to three such links
within each article, as long as the article itself, is not
just an advertisement for said product or service.

This can work to your benefit if you join several different
affiliate programs within the same niche. You can do a
comparison between them, and include your link for each
one.

Another approach that works well, is to weave your
affiliate links into your articles, simply by being
creative with the wording.

By describing a product or service within your article, and
using an affiliate hyperlink to take your readers to a
page, which can better describe your points, will more
likely be accepted, and increase the chances of the readers
clicking your them.

Research has proven that the most effective links are text
links. They far exceed banners and flash animations, when
it comes to click through rates. By adding these hyperlinks
into your articles and distributing them across the web,
using them on your own sites and blogs, you will see more
clicks and more affiliate sales.

Do You Realy Need To Be Successful?

Do You Realy Need To Be Successful ?

http://www.ieal-homebiz-products.com/start



If you ask five people what to do to be successful when
starting a business on the Internet, you will probably get
five different answers. expect to hear everything from,
"you absolutely have to have a business plan" to "failure
is eminent, without my new software." Although a business
plan is very, very important, and there are some very
valuable software applications to help grow a business. But
there is one aspect of success, that seems to be very hard
for many people to overcome.

This is a story to illustrate the point. A friend, named
Mike wanted to start his Internet marketing business. But,
Before he began selling anything, he hired someone to coach
him. His coach did not have any really revolutionary ideas,
pretty much the same as many other guru's, but he was
honest with Mike, when he needed to hear the truth. Mike
would followed his instructions on researching profitable
niches.

One time Mike coach emailed him with a suggestion,
that he thought would make it easier for Mike. But mike
responded, saying that he thought the suggestion made by
his coach, was nearly impossible. Mike told him, "I can't
do that, it's too hard." The response from His coach was
paramount to Mike's success. It changed everything for
Mike. His coach replied saying, "Mike, if you think you
can't, then you're probably right."

Mike then understood what his coach was getting at. Mike's
own thoughts about what he thought he could and could not
do, were holding him back. Mike decided that very day, that
he could in fact do what his coach suggested to him, to
find a profitable niche. That's right, he made the decision
that he could do it, and that he would not give up. Not
only did Mike find a profitable niche, he found ten
profitable niches. Mike quickly started his first Internet
business, selling a hard good product, and it turned out to
be a total success. This rest is history.

Question yourself! what could you do, if you removed "I
can't" from your vocabulary, and weren't hindered by what
you think are your abilities. Mike knew nothing about the
niche he started in, but his business took off like
gangbusters. And he learned about his product as he went
along. He didn't know how to build a website, but he
learned. Mike's success had nothing to do with a large
starting capital, he started with less than $300.

Your success at any business venture, has very little to do
with talent. The money you have to invest, or knowledge
about the product. And a whole host of other excuses, that
people come up with, about why they can't start their
Internet business. Your success have everything to do with
your determination to succeed, and perseverance, when
challenges come your way. Now don't go and throw money down
the drain because you don't want to give up,

please use common sense. If you haven't made any money
after a couple months, don't decide that online marketing
is not for you. Consider moving on to find another niche.
There are millions of buyers, in thousands of niches,
waiting to buy... Keep ploughing away, until you find a
need, to meet in a specific niche and fill that need. It
only take a few months to get to know your market.

Every month, there are millions of people searching for
information, on how to make money on the Internet. Yet less
than 3% of those people ever make any money. The difference
between those that succeed, and those that do not, is that
the ones who make money don't back down, when faced with
the same challenges, that all other online marketers face.
It boils down to this, you have to delete the phrase, "I
can't" from your vocabulary. Don't be one of the 97% that
give up right before you strike gold.
