Working From Home

I am one of those rare people who actually like my job. I work in the entertainment industry for a company that installs and maintains projector equipment. I travel the world and meet a wide verity of interesting people. It took me a long time to earn the position I am in and the respect of the people in the industry. I work 40 or more and sometimes less per week. When I am working I make great money, but when I am not working I make nothing. I knew that I needed to do something to change this fact.

The home business industry is the perfect solution. With the internet and cell phones I can virtually work from anywhere. Working is the key though, I would not expect to just sit around and do nothing at all. To build a business from home takes time and investing in my own business. While I was sitting at my desk drinking my Caramel Macchiato I was looking for the best programs to join. I found that Strong Future International had one of the best affiliate programs available on the internet. SFI has two main things that I was lacking. First thing is the ability to earn residual income and the second being able to earn leveraged income. To become qualified for this type of income all one has to do is sell enough of the many products to earn at least 10 Sales Volume Points and do this each month. I took another sip of my Caramel Macchiato and thought to myself that maybe I could do this. I looked at one of the products and noticed that just one bottle of Liquid Nutrition would get me 10 SVP for the month, but could I sell one each month? Would I even buy this stuff? I gave it a try and the stuff is actually pretty good. It hasn't grown any of my hair back yet but it does give me the nutrition I need.

The next week I was sitting at a StarBucks looking at my e-mails drinking my Grande Caramel Macchiato when I saw one of those SFI ones. A letter from my sponsor letting me know that I should consider putting in for a Standing Order for the IAHBE membership, that I would really benefit from it. I thought, where am I, going to get extra money to spend on investing in myself. The next e-mail was another one from SFI telling me congratulation on a sale. I went to the website to see what was sold and believe it or not I had sold two bottles of PurJava. I took another sip and thought watch out StarBucks I'm in the coffee business now. I checked out what PurJava was and thought WOW this stuff really sounds good. I got a couple of bottles myself, to give it a try.

I took a look at just how much I was spending each week on my Caramel Macchiato and didn't even realize that I was spending anywhere from 25 to 30 dollars a week on coffee. I thought maybe I should cut back and give myself the business. I still indulge sometimes but now I only spend about 25 dollars and I now have 75 extra to invest in my own home business. I learned to take a look at myself and see what other things I sell that I also buy from someone else. I put in a Standing Order for the IAHBE membership and with it some Liquid Nutrition and the Weight loss drink mix. Not only does that qualify me for executive affiliate status each month but it also qualifies me for wholesale purchases and I can get 20 free leads each month. Twenty leads may not sound like a whole lot, but each one has the potential to earn me that leveraged and residual income I was learning about.

I learned that it is important to build my business and just like in my engineering job it is important to have the right tools. I found that one of the most powerful tools on the internet is having your own website. The problem with that was that I had no idea how to design and set up a top level website. I gave it a try though but soon realized that it would take me a few more years to really learn how to make a good website. I needed a domain name, hosting, lots of content, graphics, links, articles, and much more, not to mention design it all and maintain it. I learned quite a few things installing all those projectors and working with many different people around the world and one of the things was don't waste your time trying to reinvent a tool that already exist.

The Wealth Online Website, already exist. "WOW" promotes six top rated affiliate based businesses that can earn you money online. The Wealth Online Website is a fully designed and operational website that will help you build your home business. All one needs to do is get a domain name and hosting and join at least five of the six affiliate programs. That is the easy part. Kevin will do all the hard stuff for you and help you with tips on promoting your "WOW"

Remember that working from home is still work, but unlike the typical job, you have control over what you do. One of the smartest things you can do is join a group of people that want you to succeed. By joining WOW you will be apart of an incredible team of people that are succeeding in the home business environment and will show you how to be apart of that success.

I once had a traditional 9 to 5 job with a corporate salary, but mergers and acquisitions took away the security and my hopes to move up the corporate ladder. My job experiences made me determined to never let anyone control my paycheck again. I was not going to work the rest of my life for others only to make them rich.

Work at Home Leadership

Another thought is to look at the current growth of your home business. Think about this for a moment - What if your downline sponsored only half of what you sponsored last month, what kind of business growth would you have next month? What if they got those same results over the 6, 12, 24, or 60 consecutive months?

If you are like 98% of the marketers in the online marketing industry, you are not sponsoring up to 10 people each and every day. In fact, you are lucky if you personally sponsor one person a month. But it does not have to be that way for you!

You can personally sponsor 5 to 10 people into your network marketing business each and every day. Sponsoring 5 to 10 people is really simple, but it does take time and effort!

CHARACTER: "Doing what you said you would do even after the feeling has left you." ---Abraham Lincoln

To successfully recruit and build a lucrative work at home business, there are no true secrets. They are termed as "secrets" because you do NOT know about the strategy, technique, or information. Tapping into a resource like Work at Home Business Resource, there are no secrets. In fact, I hold nothing back and teach solid work smart nuts 'n bolts of what it truly takes to earn a six-figure income through network marketing as well as how to personally sponsor 5 to 10 people each and every month into your business. No secrets, all the specific details are in the training provided by Work at Home Business Resources.

TIP - Tap into the resources provided by Work at Home Business Resource. Spend 30 minutes a day learning something new, enhancing your knowledge and skills. At our resource you have access to countless articles, special reports, market-tested scripts, work at home business opportunities and so much more.

The Secret -- Consistent Action! This strategy is simple, yet for most people the strategy is not easy. The reason it is not easy is because most people do not know what "consistent action" really means. Most people confuse keeping busy with real action. They stay consistently busy rather than consistent in the actions that will build their business.

Let's look closer at the meaning of consistent action. First, what do we mean by consistent? Consistent means to be conforming to a single set of principles, not contradictory, steady and constant. Secondly, what do we mean by action? Action means the process of functioning, doing, or working.

In terms of online marketing, consistent action means taking the necessary effort to move forward to build your business. This means to take real action, the action must be something that moves your business forward - so it grows. When we talk about sponsoring people, action is the activities done putting you in front of your prospect because without being in front of the prospect, nothing can be sold. If nothing is sold, no one makes any money.

If you continually spiral in consistent busy work, your business won't grow. It takes responsibility on your part to take action to grow your business. You can't blame your upline because chances are your upline doesn't know how to take real action. This is not uncommon. It is a fact of the Internet marketing life.

TIP - Lead by example and lead with action - consistent action!

Do you think more people would do business with you if you could prove you are personally sponsoring 5 to 10 people every day? You can bet on it! You can personally sponsor 5 to 10 people every day with consistent action. However, you have to have the guts to develop that consistency, which means you MUST make a commitment that will not allow you to waiver.

It is not easy! You will be challenged and fall flat on your face many times. The key is consistency. Learn from the failures grow from there. This is not about perfection, it is about improvement. Success does not just happen - you need to prepare to succeed.

Realize, you will stumble and fall. Things never go as planned. But turn these failures and defeat into learning experiences. This will strengthen your character and achieve more success when you begin to accept failures as a part of true success. Remember, with just a handful of leaders on your team who master sponsoring 5 to 10 people a day can help you realize phenomenal residual growth!

Work at Home Business

Taking advantage of a work at home business opportunity can afford you many benefits that far outweigh those provided by any employer.

If you're already working your own work at home business or are just entertaining the idea, it's important that you evaluate your options and consider the value of the benefits you'll receive.

A work at home business can provide you with independence and financial freedom, if you make smart decisions and are suitably motivated!

Money, alone, is not enough to drive anyone to start a successful work at home business. Reasons for doing anything are almost always emotional and, in this case, the impact on lifestyle is most important when considering work at home business opportunities.

For example, let's say you're Doctor earning $200,000 a year. That's a pretty good salary and, in addition to the prestigious title, you're likely to have enough money to buy most of the finer things in life - a nice car, house and a good holiday every summer. But what do you have to give in return?

You still have to turn up for work according to your contracted hours. You can't necessarily go home at a moment's notice and you certainly can't take more than your allocated holidays each year. To make matters worse, when you stop working (and you will), the generous income you've grown used to also stops!

You have no freedom - freedom to do what you want, when you want... so, what's the answer?

Starting your own work at home business can give you personal freedom and, depending on the business you choose, can earn you an ongoing residual income (an income that continues whether you work or not) to give you true financial freedom!

As a work at home business owner, you can set your own schedule, work the hours that are most convenient for you and have time available for family obligations and leisure activities.

Working from home in your own time allows you the freedom to adjust your schedule according to the needs of your family - be home when the children are out of school is just one way in which many people have benefited from starting a work at home business.

Another recognized benefit of running your own work at home business is the reduction in your stress levels. Naturally, any business will likely produce its own kind of stress but certain factors can be avoided when you take advantage of one of the many home business opportunities that are available to you.

You can say goodbye to your daily commute, save money on your fuel and travel expenses and you can have the extra time in the morning and evening to relax and interact with your family, if you so desire.

By starting a work at home business you can create an income working from home which, in turn, provides you with financial and personal freedom. But, more importantly, working your own home-based business can give you self-respect and a sense of achievement.

Want to be a consultant

Let's say you have more than 20 years experience in your chosen field. For the sake of this article, let's say you have been in the nonprofit field for 25 years and are at the very top of your game. And let's say you're a bit bored with the hum-drum day-to-day routine of being an executive director. You love nonprofit sector, but you need more of a challenge and you yearn to help people grow and achieve success in their nonprofit careers. Plus, you'd like to earn a little bit more money and are a bit tired of the board of directors overseeing everything you do.
Perhaps it's time to go into business for yourself. Perhaps it's time to become a consultant, a coach, a speaker and trainer. The thought is exciting, albeit a little frightening. You're current salary is certainly respectable for a person with your skills and experience, and the health insurance and retirement plan are comforting benefits that you don't want to relinquish. But none of these factors have been able to sufficiently scratch that darned itch that keeps telling you it's time to start your own nonprofit consulting business.

Going into business for yourself as a consultant, coach, or speaker requires determination, a little self-sacrifice (in the beginning), and a lot of experience. People hire consultants because they need the expertise of someone who has been there and done that...hundreds of times. There are consultants in literally every career field, and once they become accustomed to the process of generating clientele, they can make over double what they were earning as employees. In fact, recent statistics show that successful and established consultants can make anywhere from $1,200 to $5,000 per day.

There is power and prestige in consulting that can rarely be found in management positions, even executive positions. The power comes from calling the shots as a business owner and making sure people know they need you; the prestige comes from being the very best in your field...and making sure people know it.

But there's a not so subtle difference in owning your own business and owning your own consulting firm. Lots of people own businesses. My fiance owns a deli, my father owns a small publishing business, and my mother owns a bakery. But owning your own consulting firm lets people know that you're the crème de la crème in your field - and if they want to rise to the top like you have, they'll hire you to help them.

Consulting firms, like the one you will soon own, can be anything from a one man show to a large agency boasting senior and junior associates. Most consultants make their day to day income from coaching and mentoring individuals in the field - charging anywhere from $300 (for junior level staffers) to $500 (for senior executives) per hour. They also assist clients with organizational development, strategic and financial planning, and a host of other services including workshop facilitation and board and staff retreats. And if they like to speak in front of audiences, many consultants make thousands of dollars simply talking to a crowd for a few hours about their experiences and knowledge.

While it's not as easy as 1-2-3 to quite your job and start making $5,000 a day as a consultant, it's certainly not as difficult as it looks - especially if you're very very good at what you do and have expertise that few can match. Start off as a moonlighter, which is the term used when someone has a "day job" but works on their own business in the evenings. Make a simple business card for yourself and during your lunch hour at work, go to chamber of commerce or rotary meetings where you can network and talk to people about your new consulting practice.

The best home based opportunity

If you are considering telecommuting and are currently searching for a home based opportunity, then you need to research freelance home based jobs.

Many home based opportunities are scams and do not provide a significant income for someone wishing to use telecommuting avenues. Freelance work provides great home based jobs that are risk-free and give you the chance to work from the comfort of your own home while still being assured of legitimate employment from companies who will pay you for your services. In our opinion, freelancing is the best home based opportunity.

Freelancing allows you to search home based opportunities through submitting applications on available positions that people are offering where you can telecommute or simply work in your own home office. If you have the skills then you have a great chance to find a home based job that fits your talents and expertise.

Freelancing is also a great home based opportunity because it significantly reduces your need of online or offline marketing. Marketing is often the most difficult task in a work at home business if you have never tried it. With freelancing you are able to offer your services at freelance jobs boards. You don’t need to go and sell products to your friends, spend hours trying to attract quality traffic to your website or make any cold calls. You can earn a steady income unlike network marketing where you income can range from nothing to a huge amount.

Freelance work also allows you to be your own boss, set your own hours and simply work when and where you want. Your income really depends on your efforts. This offers excellent benefits in that you have greater independence and you will be able to have your own tools for the job available. You may also be able to determine your own salary levels based on how much you charge and how much people are willing to pay. Determining factors will be your experience in the particular job.

Work at home freelance jobs also help you reduce your taxes. There are many areas where you will be able to claim tax benefits when you are involved as an independent contractor in your own home based opportunity. You will be able to claim tax write-offs for some of the expenses related in running a home office such as the cost of the home, travel expenses, equipment and insurance, magazines and books, and various other expenses which may be relevant to your freelance job.

Succeed Online

My wife and I pursued income opportunities from home about 5 years ago. Our first venture was with eBay auctions. Fortunately, my father owned a sports memorabilia business in a small town (La Grange, TX). He accumulated a ton of memorabilia but did not have the "traffic" to sale his items. With the Internet experience that my wife and I learned about, we were able to auction my father's items on eBay. This is how we learned that the Internet would soon become our "gold mine"!

We're sure that everybody knows that with the right products, income can be earned online using the power of online auctions. By using this POWER, we learned how to build our own web sites, optimize them for a particular subject, and start earning a huge income without paying the fees associated with auction sites.

This knowledge and experience progressed into successfully finding free affiliate programs that pay you for selling their products. It sounds easy, but our experience and "back breaking" work behind the computer is what it really takes to earn an income that may replace you current job income. There are millions of free affiliate programs, but you won't earn a dime until you learn how to market them and find the programs that actually pay you.

Unfortunately, we spent tons of money trying to market these programs that are…to put it simple…SCAMS…at least 99% of them! Examples include Get paid to read email programs, get paid to click programs, get paid through Paypal…..bottom line is what my wife and I call-Get Paid Easy programs.

After 2 years of scams, we learned that there are legitimate home business opportunities online. We learned that the only way to succeed with an online business is through finding legitimate online marketing businesses combined with mastering search engine optimization. In other words, build your own web site that will result in page 1 search engine rankings on innovative search phrases. You'll never get page 1 rankings for keywords like "business, money, home, work, finance, rich…etc". We learned to build sites concentrating on keyphrases like "work at home business, business opportunity at home, online business opportunity, etc".

Within the sites we built with these key phrases, we concentrated on legitimate and better business bureau membership online programs. Our first challenge was to filter out the online marketing businesses that were scams….and filter out the online businesses that appear to be legitimate, but prove to be illegitimate.

While searching for our current online "Gold Mine", we spent tons of money advertising our sites and trying online programs, and tons of labor building web sites. After 3 years of patience, persistence, and ambition, we NOW work at home full time. A combination of legitimate online home business opportunities, mentoring others, search engine optimization web design, and traditional marketing methods have resulted in a true home business income for our family.

Online Business Plan

You're excited. You have a great idea for a profitable online business. Maybe it is an original idea that has not been marketed online before. Maybe you have come up with a new spin on the ordinary. Whatever it is that has influenced you to start your online business, be sure that you have a plan before you begin. The business summary should give a brief description of the entire business and is an integral part of the overall business plan. After you have completed the business summary you should begin to list the objectives or the goals that you want to accomplish through the business. Next and perhaps most importantly, you should develop your marketing plan. The marketing plan will address all the specifics of the business. When developing the marketing strategy you should consider the following:

The target market. The target market is the customers that you expect to see visiting your site. For example will your product be more appealing to college students or those who are in retirement?

Consider the competition for your product when determining the marketing strategy. Choose a product that will be seen as unique and useful. Visit sites that are offering the same or similar products. Find out the cost, and how they are marketing their product. Finds out the pros and cons of their business and try to improve your product based on their flaws.

Research the various methods for advertising online. You should become educated about search engines and how they work since each one is different. Also be sure that you know how to submit your site to search engines. You should be prepared to spend a small amount of money on advertising, but the profits that you will gain from the advertisements will prove to be money well spent.

Think about pricing. Again, look at the competition and see what similar products are selling for. Pricing can play a big role in the success of your product since selling a product well below the average price may lead customer to think that there is a problem with the product or that it is not of the best quality. However, pricing items too high could also detour customers.

Determine the shipping method. Be sure that you know how products will be shipped so that you can have shipping details clearly posted on your site. If you are shipping things of great value, you should consider providing shipping insurance. Also think about shipping outside the country that you live in.

Think about the different methods of payment that you will accept. If your business does not accept credit cards, you should be ready to give up half if not more of your sales. If you decide to accept credit cards will you use a merchant account or will you use a third party credit card processing center? Both will help you get started and the third party processing center will handle all of the business so you don''t have to. You should decide which you will use and also if you will accept checks or money orders. It is essential to have a secure server when taking credit cards.

Missing Your Chance to Work at Home

Wouldn't that be disappointing? No one likes to think that they have wasted their chance, missed their opportunity. But that's exactly what happens to many.

Sometimes you can become so focused on a single-minded purpose that you miss the opportunity when it presents itself. Maybe it wasn't the goal that you started out with, but that doesn't mean that it's not the right path to follow.

Years ago, I left my career to stay at home with my kids. I remember the months after I had made up my mind? I was obsessed with my dream of becoming a stay-at-home mom. It was all I could think about: How would we make it happen? Could we afford it? I dreamed of watching my girls play from our porch, cooking dinner every night, having the time to work in their classrooms, go to their sporting events.

Long story short, we did it. It wasn't easy; I quit my job, we moved to a different area, my husband had to transfer. But we did it.

It was just as I had dreamed it would be... for a while. But it didn't take long for my restless nature to crash the party. I soon realized that I needed professional interaction. I also needed to be able to contribute to the household income, as much for personal fulfillment as out of financial necessity.

So, I decided that I should try to find a job that I could do from home. I'd have the best of both worlds. I knew that I had valuable skills and experience. It never occurred to me to start a business- I'd never owned a business before so it never crossed my mind. I just wanted a job.

Of course, once I started looking around I realized that finding a job that I could do from home was not going to be easy.

Then I came across an ad for an opportunity to promote an educational product. I would earn commissions on my own sales as well as the sales made by any others that I invited to join. That's right, it was a Multi Level Marketing opportunity, not that I really knew what that was at the time. It looked pretty easy, so I gave it a try.

What ended up happening was that I earned enough money to start my own business. I plunged every penny that I made into building the business that I run today, 2Work-At-Home.com.

An MLM was not what I was looking for, but it ended up being the right road. It's not something I wanted to spend the rest of my life doing, but it helped my to achieve my goal. And that goal wasn't even the one I started out with. I'm really glad that I didn't miss my turnoff.

Here are 5 tips that will help you to avoid missing your chance to work at home:

Be open-minded. If I had been as closed-minded as many people are about MLM's, I would probably still be trying to run my website with a free webhosting account. Ask yourself, "why not?" and educate yourself before closing the door on an opportunity.

Recognize when what you're doing isn't right for you. Sometimes you work so hard to achieve a goal, you fail to see the forest for the trees. Be honest with yourself and whether or not a situation is right for you.

Don't waste your time. We all know by now that there are no typing jobs out there, right? Stop going down the dead-end roads of the home typist, ad placing and mail processor jobs.

Invisible Income Opportunity

How would you feel if you had been searching desperately for something, some magic solution to a problem, and come to find out it was right there in front of you the whole time-- you just failed to see it?
For many searching for a way to work from home, this is exactly what they're doing.

There is a common misconception out there that's preventing alot of people from realizing their dreams of working at home. Is it holding you back too?

Time and time again I hear this sentiment, "I don't want to start a business. I just want to do clerical work for a company" or, "I see so many opportunities, but they're all scams because they charge a fee".

Now, before you say "well, isn't that true? Shouldn't there never be a fee?" realize that there is a big difference between a telecommute job offer and a business opportunity. And I hate to tell you this, but companies just don't hire teleworkers to do clerical work for them. There are plenty of telecommute jobs out there, but they are for highly specialized skills that require specific training. If you have a knack for sales, there are no shortage of companies that will hire you to do cold-calling from your home office.

So, that leaves us with two options: To get the training that's required for a telecommute job (programming courses at a local college, for example), or to start a home business.

For some reason, the idea of taking courses or going back to school is usually met with resistance. "I can't afford it" or "I don't have time" are typical responses. But think of it this way: Your goal is to land a telecommute job. All telecommute jobs require specialized training or skills. Doesn't it make sense to obtain the training that's required for the job you want? Isn't it worth investing in some classes if it means that you will be qualified for telecommute jobs?

Ok, so maybe you're not interested in working in sales or becoming a programmer. The other option is to look at a business opportunity. This suggestion is not usually greeted with enthusiasm. And this really is the issue at hand: Why not a business opportunity?

This is where so many people overlook the chance to work from home; the idea that if an opportunity charges a fee, it's a scam. It's a common misconception that stands in the way of many a would-be home worker.

The truth is that almost all business opportunities require an investment. You can't expect to start a business without some expenses, can you? The really exciting thing is that with the Internet, it's possible to start out with a much smaller investment than in the brick-and-mortar world.

The important thing is to be able to discern the legitimate offer from the scams. There are some simple checkpoints that can help you to determine if a business opportunity is legitimate.

How To Get Rich in a Home Based Business

I read recently that by looking at company's checkbook and at their daily schedule you can determine whether the company will be successful. Why? Because when you know where a company is spending its earnings and the kinds of daily activities (nature of meetings, etc) that consumes its time, you can determine a company's priorities. And priorities are the best predictable measures of success. I think the same can be said for an individual, and for the purpose of this article what we are really looking at is one and the same, because a home business entrepreneur essentially is an individual, a sole proprietor.

So my question to you is this? What does your check book register look like? Are you investing in your business by budgeting some of your income to advertising, to learning about your business, and to getting other people involved in your business? Or does most of your money go toward other personal interests? Most importantly, is working your home based business a part of your daily schedule or is it a hit and miss proposition, where you spend a few hours one day, then don't do anything for several days, then catch up on your business emails and spend a little more time on your business, then return to other personal interests before spending more quality time on your business. Since you started your home based business have your priorities significantly changed or are you still doing everything you used to do and trying to find time somewhere to devote to you business?

It cannot be overstated. Your priorities will determine your success. It's like the old axiom, "if we keep doing what we've always been doing we'll keep getting what we've always gotten."

About three years ago my doctor informed that I was pre-diabetic. He explained to me that this is a hereditary condition and that I would most likely have to start taking insulin in a year or two to maintain an acceptable glucose level. But there was one caveat. He said if you exercise regularly, eat three meals a day but eat less than you do now, stay away from starchy food, eat only green vegetables, quit drinking soda, start eating more fruit, and quit snacking before you go to bed the effect of your diabetic condition can be prolonged almost indefinitely. He also said I needed to lose at least 30 pounds. I purchased a glucose monitor and began checking my blood sugar regularly.

After six months, and 30 pounds lighter I returned to my doctor for a checkup. He said I had made remarkable progress, but as a precaution he kept me on some diabetic medication. After six more months I once again returned to my doctor for another checkup. To my surprise, he called all the nurses into a room with and said, "here's the guy I was telling you about. He's the only diabetic patient I've ever had who did what I told him to do." Two days later he called and said, "your labs look so good I'm taking you off the medication. I'm convinced you have made a permanent change in your lifestyle. I'll see you in a year."

It is incomprehensible to me that most people who are diagnosed with a treatable medical condition are not able or willing to change their priorities. I did. I started exercising regularly. I have not eaten potatoes in three years (well I have fudged on this a little, but not more than two or three); I quit eating popcorn and ice cream or other sweets. I haven't had a sip of any kind of soft drink in over three years. I changed my priorities. The result is that I feel much better, I have more endurance, and I have even saved money by not getting my regular milk shake fix that used to be part of my daily routine.

I learned an important principle through this experience and it has everything to do with operating a home based business. The principle is this. Let's call it the inflexible priorities principle. Most people are unwilling to change their priorities, even when they know that doing so will improve their life. That's why by some counts 97% of home based business owners quit after less than six months. That's unfortunate because it takes about that much time for most of us to start to realize our earnings potential. And regardless of the rationale they come up with, the reason these people quit is due to their application of the inflexible priorities principle. Like all the other diabetic patients my doctor treats, though they may have good intentions they can never discipline themselves to a permanent change in their priorities.

As Stephen Covey stated in his popular book Seven Habits of Highly Effective People, "the key is not to prioritize what's on your schedule. The key is to schedule your priorities." H.L. Hunt put it this way. "Decide what you want, decide what you are willing to exchange for it. Establish your priorities and go to work."

For a pre-diabetic patient, there's no such thing as an immediate cure. It takes time, it takes discipline, and it takes a determination to change one's priorities in life, and to make this change a part of one's daily routine. It's the same way for a home business entrepreneur. There's no get-rich-quick formula in existence. It takes time, determination, and most importantly, a willingness to change ones priorities permanently. As pre-diabetic I have learned to be creative in coming up with different kinds of food combinations for my meals. I've had to refrain from drinking soda on those hot summer days. Instead I drink a lot of water now. As a home based business entrepreneur I've had to discipline myself to spending some time on my business almost every day. But I look forward to activating my creative energies in ways that will help my business achieve success. I've once again reprioritized some things in my life. And once again, I'm finding it fulfilling and I'm finding that is leading me to an improved lifestyle.

Home Based Business Experience

How did my home based business get started? It all began with two simple steps! I made the decision and I took action. As a successful internet marketer and home business owner that is all it took to begin building a profitable online business from my home.

I am sure that I'm not alone when I say that I have tried many different job opportunities but never becoming truly successful with any of them! For several years I had run a small business from my home supporting it by working part time to provide a another income source, I had to make money while I built my business.

Then one day my wife who is a work at home mom said, "a lot of people are making residual income by using affiliate programs and internet marketing plus becoming very successful all while working at home! That night I made a decision to learn the business and find the best way to make money. Being new to the internet side of business I wasn't long seeing the opportunity suddenly opening up before us, all because of the first action I took.

To be successful we set deadlines to have certain tasks accomplished by. It's good to set deadlines and lay out business plans. After all, this is a business.

We searched for companies that were positioned for growth and had a proven record of integrity. We knew that we needed all the free marketing tools that were available to limit overhead costs. Slowly a trend began to develop in our online business searches, certain companies were consistently turning up in keyword searches and phrases. Our attention began to shift to narrowing these down with criteria that was important to our family! Then before our 30 day deadline was up we had found and chosen an online system to market! That system of course is the Wealth Online Website (WOW). It contained the Free website we needed to promote our home business, many gateway sites to promote our business opportunity, and the products we needed to retail to help generate a quick profit. Oh ya, it was all Free to join!

WOW haven't we done well so far! So we had our business set up with legitimate affiliates programs ready to market and the site to promote them. A step closer to me becoming a full time stay at home dad, and not a moment to soon. At this point sleep was getting scarce, I had this burning desire for success and new the road was laid out for me, all I had to do was follow!

I quit my job, devoted seventeen hours per day to learning and promoting my new business venture and here I am today. I can't wait to get up each day and get to work, in my home office,where I am truly the boss. A combination of smart work, desire for change, and a clear business plan has propelled me into the world of successfully marketing a home based business.

It doesn't come easy but when it does come you will be rewarded tenfold. One of the biggest challenges I find is staying focused when the kids are calling "dad" or there is someone knocking at the door. Stay focused and your business will grow! Know your markets,know your products, and be proud of what you to have to offer. My personal advice to others is devote as much time as you can to get off to a fast start. The longer a business runs without results the more likely you are to get discouraged and ultimately fail. Successful businesses are not born over night, they take time to grow. We all know that everything in life needs food of some form to grow,right! Well your business is no different, it needs a continual feed of essential up to the minute best business practices to grow also.

Whatever you do NEVER quit trying. Opportunity is always just around the corner. In fact, most of us run into it everyday, without even realizing it. You must change your outlook on life,develop a positive mental attitude! Become an eternal optimist, no more negative thinking allowed. If someone else can be successful then you can to. Some tremendous advantages of work at home internet business is the extremely low overhead cost,you can be a in a profit situation very quickly! Your customer base is only limited by your marketing strategy so get at it.

Business Marketing

Business Marketing is one of the four basic types of Search Engines. Business Marketing is also one of the most cost-effective ways of targeted internet advertising. According to Forbes magazine, Business Marketing or Pay Per Click, accounts to 2 billion dollars a year and is expected to increase to around 8 billion dollars by the year 2008. Let us take a quick look at how Business Marketing Search Engines work.

These engines create listings and rate them based on a bid amount the website owner is willing to pay for each click from that search engine. Advertisers bid against each other to receive higher ranking for a specific keyword or phrase.

The highest bidder for a certain keyword or phrase will then have the site ranked as number 1 in the Business Marketing Search Engines followed by the second and third highest bidder, up to the last number that have placed a bid on the same keyword or phrase. Your ads then will appear prominently on the results pages based on the dollar amount bid you will agree to pay per click.

How do you make money by using Business Marketing into your affiliate marketing business?

Most affiliate programs only pay when a sale is made or a lead delivered after a visitor has clickthrough your site. Your earnings will not always be the same as they will be dependent on the web site content and the traffic market.

The reason why you should incorporate Business Marketing into your affiliate marketing program is that earnings are easier to make than in any other kind of affiliate program not using Business Marketing. This way, you will be making profit based from the clickthroughs that your visitor will make on the advertiser site. Unlike some programs, you are not paid per sale or action.

Business Marketing can be very resourceful of your website. With Business Marketing Search Engines incorporated into your affiliate program, you will be able to profit from the visitora who are not interested in your products or services. The same ones who leave your site and never comes back.

You will not only get commissions not only from those who are just searching the web and finding the products and services that they wanted but you will be able to build your sites recognition as a valuable resource. The visitors who have found what they needed from you site are likely to come back and review what you are offering more closely. Then they will eventually come back to search the web for other products.

This kind of affiliate program is also an easy way for you to generate some more additional revenues. For example, when a visitor on your site does a search in the Business Marketing Search Engine and clicks on the advertiser bided listings, the advertisersa account will then be deducted because of that click. With this, you will be compensated 30% to 80% of the advertisersa bid amount.

Business Marketing is not only a source of generating easy profits; it can also help you promote your own site. Most of the programs allow the commissions received to be spent for advertising with them instantly and with no minimum earning requirement. This is one of the more effective ways to exchange your raw visitors for targeted surfers who has more tendencies to purchase your products and services.

What will happen if you when you integrate Business Marketing into your affiliate program?

Business Marketing usually have ready-to-use affiliate tools that can be easily integrated into your website. The most common tools are search boxes, banners, text links and some 404-error pages. Most search engines utilize custom solutions and can provide you with a white-label affiliate program. This enables you, using only a few lines of code, to integrate remotely-hosted co-branded search engine into your website.
