Not everyone wants to work for a boss. There are a lot of great benefits when you are working for yourself.
1. No one is watching over your shoulder.
2. You take a break when ever you want to take one.
3. You can take a vacation when ever you feel like getting a break.
4. No office politics.
5. The great feeling that you have accomplished something in your life.
6. Personal freedom
Becoming your own boss takes a lot of courage and stamina.
You need to be self motivated and take action everyday. While you have been taught many years to get a good education so that you can get a good job, those thoughts need to get out of your subconscious mind. This is an important aspect to run and continue to run your business. Look, the fact is that many people who have "jobs" will tell you that you are probably wasting your time. They will tell you to get a real job and stop fooling around.
While many of your friends or family try to tell you to get a job, you need to stay focused and do what ever is necessary to succeed. It would be a good idea to read motivational books and listen to tapes on a daily basis because once people brainwash you to get a job, this can overwhelm your mind and you might actually follow through with it especially when money is short and you have just started out. You need to know that things are not always going to go your way. You will have many setbacks, frustrations, and angry moments. This is a part of being financially independent and having your own home based business.
What ever you do or don't do, never ever quit. If you are just starting out and aren't making what you expected, keep moving forward and learn something new everyday. When you start a business, offline or online, there is a possibility that you will lose some money when you start. If you have a job and just started a side business, keep your job until you are sure that you can live with this kind of income that will help you pay for your bills. Many people have a job and a business on the side and wait a few good months until they are making enough from their business.
Some people, when they work hard and take a lot of action with their business, sometimes are not making enough to cover their expenses and bills from their business income for a particular month. Do you know how mind boggling is that? When you work so hard and you are not making enough is a sure motivation to quitting and throwing everything overboard. This is where truly entrepreneurial individuals see an obstacle that they can overcome as opposed to quitting.
By staying persistent all the time, you will eventually succeed with your business. When you do reach success, the feeling of having people look up to you for this kind of business success is tremendous.

Getting Ready To Become Your Own Boss?
The Benefits Of a Home Based Business
By: Helen Cox
Setting a business from home is a big step and although the benefits that you will receive from doing so will be highly rewarding you have to ensure that you have thoroughly planned out your business to eliminate the element of failure.
One of the first decisions that you will have to make when it comes to setting up your own business is clearly what type of business you intend to go into.
There are many options open to you when it comes to setting up your own business; many people choose to use a hobby or skill to develop into their business such as craft skill, cookery/baking, recording/editing of music or photos and child care as well as languages. However one of the most popular ways of going into business is via the Internet.
There are thousands of opportunities arising within the Internet. You should evaluate your options and consider the value of the benefits you will receive from your Internet home business.
You might want to consider running a website or a web based business or maybe writing articles to be used on websites. Your options that are open to you when it comes to running an Internet home business are really limitless.
The Internet is a gateway to any aspect of business and opens you up to a whole new world of customers. Whatever your business is aiming to sell or whatever service you are hoping to offer, with the help of the Internet you will be able to make it a reality.
Becoming your own boss gives you independence, financial freedom and allows you to make smart decisions as well as to get motivated. There are countless benefits that working from home will bring you such as the freedom to adjust your working schedule. You can say goodbye to the familiar and stressful commute to work.
Having your own home business means that you work when you want to work; fitting your work around your family instead of the other way round. If you want to work throughout the night one day and not another then you can. If you want to take a holiday you have no one but yourself to answer to and as your business will most likely involve the Internet you can literally work from anywhere in the world as long as they have an Internet connection.
By working from home you save money on fuel and travel expenses as well as having the best chance of making your business a success as your costs will be as low as possible.
You also gain more self respect from owning your own home business as you will have a high sense of achievement and self appraisal for doing something on you're own and turning it into a success.
When starting your own home business it is also important to keep in mind that money alone is not enough to get your business to where you want it to be. Our main reasons behind the choices that we make in life are almost always emotional so the impact of these choices on our lifestyle is important.
The impact of owning your own business is always almost a positive affect on your life as it gives you freedom and reduces stress level. It allows you to be able to work the hours that most suit the needs of your family.

22 Insider Tips to Wroking from Home Successfully
22 Insider Tips to Working from Home Successfully
by Gobala Krishnan
Last Monday, I got up at 9.30am, enjoyed my slow bath and long breakfast, read the morning paper (not just the headlines) and finally entered my "office" at 11:00 a.m. No stares, no sarcastic remarks, and no reprimands. I felt so focused and energized, as if the morning breeze itself had lifted my spirits and breathed young, new life into my soul.
For the first time, I finally felt how it was like to be the master of your own destiny; to be the captain of your own ship. I felt what it was like to be a home-based entrepreneur working for what my heart wanted to pursue, not for unrealistic figures in a budget I didn't care for.
I read in the papers about the newly completed train project that stretches over 700 miles from Qinghai (China) to Lhasa (Tibet), dubbed one of the most amazing engineering feats of the new millennium. I searched the Internet for some pictures and was amazed by what I saw. I then marked three weeks off the 2006 calendar. I knew I had to go there. This time, unlike the past, I didn't need to ask anyone's permission. No leave forms, no lame excuses to keep you at work, and no cancellations.
Although "working at home in your underwear" is a much abused cliché, as a home based business entrepreneur, you'll begin to realize how fulfilling and motivating it can be to be your own boss, set your own goals, and work in line with your passion or what you really want to do in life. However, if you're not careful, you'll end up doing nothing and will soon be reluctantly seeking another J.O.B when your home-based business dream turns into a nightmare.
Here are some tips to avoid "home business disaster," work at home productively, and achieve your goals in record time:
Your Home Office
As the nucleus of your home-based business, setting up and organizing your home office can be the key to your success:
Learn to separate work from play—Although working at home is fun, you must learn to mentally separate your work from your personal life. Otherwise you'll get it mixed up and both will suffer. Do not put too many personal things in your working space and vice versa.
Separate the "home" from the "office"—Yes, you have a home office or a SOHO (Small Office Home Office) as it's popularly called. But you need to physically separate the two. For this reason, it is never a good idea to put your office in your bedroom or share it with any other room. If you have a small living space and can't afford a separate room, do what I do. Just determine which part of your hall or living area to convert to your home office, and mentally draw a "line" separating it from the rest of the room. You can also put full or partial partitions if you want.
Separate entrance is best—If you can afford it, create a separate door or entrance into your home office. This is especially useful if you expect a lot of clients at home.
Create wireless networking—Cables are messy and troublesome. If you have more than one PC just use wireless routers and create a wireless environment in your home.
Be fully equipped for business—Technology has made things cheap, so make full use of it. I personally use the TelExtreme VoIP service that gives me unlimited calls to local, domestic and international fixed and mobile phones for a flat rate. I use Skype when I travel with my notebook and use it to automate all incoming phone calls, record messages and send them to my email (you can learn more on how to do this with my e-book on Internet Telephony). You could also get a 3-in-1 fax, copier and scanner for under RM800! You can't afford to have an ill-equipped home office if you're serious about making the type of income you dreamt about.
Business Management & Productivity
When you are a "one-man-show" small business dreaming of doing multi-million dollar big business, you'll definitely need these tips:
Set your working hours—The number one mistake people make is thinking they can work whenever they feel like it. This can backfire, so make sure you set regular working hours such as 10.00am to 5.00pm and stick to it as much as you can. Of course since YOU are the boss now, you can set your time as you like, and you can always adjust a little here and there.
Have an efficient follow-up system—Use email auto-responders, voice message recorders and even toll-free numbers to manage inquiries and follow-ups. This would free up tons of your time and also help you to focus on planning your next strategic business moves instead of being a phone operator.
Don't get distracted—If you use email notification software (like Gmail Notifier) or instant message services like Yahoo Messenger or MSN Messenger, turn all these off during work hours. Don't be checking your email throughout the day, as it DOES NOT help you be focused. Instead, dedicate a few hours in the morning or evening to answer emails. If you find that the bulk of your daily time is spent looking at emails, then you're having the wrong strategy and focusing on the wrong priorities.
Finance & Profitability
When you stop getting a paycheck at the end of the month, it can be both the most exciting and most terrifying thing at the same time. Here are some tips to avoid financial black holes:
Be debt free first—If you want to start your own home based business, but you're already straddled with huge amounts of credit card debts and loan repayments, make sure you clear all or a significant part of it first. It's too risky carrying around all that debt on your shoulders when you start a business, where there is no safety net and fixed income to protect you.
Correct any financial "bad habits"—If you run a credit card debt by spending lavishly, you need to correct this first before going full time in your own home based business. It really doesn't matter how much money you can make by working at home. All that matters is how much money you keep at the end of the day.
Don't be afraid to explore new sources of income—There are more ways to make money out there than you can possibly imagine. Don't dismiss any opportunity without thoroughly researching it, or you could be missing out on the opportunity to retire richer, earlier! I once ignored trying out paid autosurf programs simple because I was too lazy to study it. Two years down the road I realized that I passed up the opportunity to add an additional RM2,000 monthly to my income. Don't do the same mistake!
Plan and monitor your cash flow—If you don't want to get up one day to find your wallet and bank account completely empty, plan your cash flow. Make a list of payments you will be receiving and the expenses you need to make. As an employee, the company plans WHEN and WHERE you get your money, but as an entrepreneur, you need to learn to master cash flow. Don't confuse "cash flow" with profits, since you can go broke even if your business is profitable but you don't see any real money in your bank account.
Aim for profitability before expansion—Make sure your business is profitable before you actually decide to go full time. If you need to spend more on your business than what you make, you are in a dangerous zone. If your home business is not profitable yet, you should have a back up plan to support your expenses, and you could consider part-time jobs to pay the bills.
Focus on residual income—If you make RM3,000 a month but need to work for 6 hours a day, it would be better if you hired someone to do the bulk of the job and only get RM500 for yourself. Even though it's less, this now becomes part of your residual income, i.e. income that you get without working. You now have the time to explore other sources of income instead of being tied-up to daily routines. Think like a business owner, not like an employee.
Swatting The Loneliness Bug
When all your friends are busy slugging at their 9-to-5 jobs and you're at home with lots of time on your hands, the truth is it can get pretty lonely. Here are some tips to overcome your post-employment loneliness:
Don't limit yourself to any location—If you ONLY work at home, then your situation is not much better than it used to be when you struggled for your former company. If you have a laptop or notebook, then you're already as ‘mobile' as it gets, so explore your options! Work in the library, at Starbucks, in the park, on the beach, by the swimming pool, or anywhere else where it's quiet and relaxing enough. After all, what's the point of having your own home-based business if you don't enjoy the perks?
Invite friends over for lunch—Even if you can't or don't cook, invite friends over for lunch. At least you'll have some company, and you'll get to see the look of envy on their faces when lunch break's over for them.
Host parties and networking sessions—Now that you're your own boss, you actually have the time and freedom to plan stuff like this. A simple barbeque dinner can help you re-establish bonds with your old friends and create tons of useful referrals.
Join network marketing—Even if your home-based business is not centered on network marketing, do join one with a reputable company. This will put you in a situation where you meet tons of new people every day and some of them will eventually become your new business partners or even newfound friends.
Marketing and Promotion
Your home business is NOT about YOU. It's about everyone else around you, how you connect to others and let them see the value that your business can provide:
What's your Instant Impact Message—Most small or home business owners can't describe their business in one sentence. Even when they do, it speaks nothing of the uniqueness of their business. "I do internet marketing" is a statement that does nothing to promote your business to others. Instead, if you say "I help small businesses with low budgets find unlimited clients over the Internet using affordable and simple solutions" then you now have a ‘value statement' that will stick in the minds of others even when they sleep. Having your own Instant Impact Message is the toughest, and most important thing you can do to successfully market your business. Don't describe what you do – describe the value that others can get from YOU.
Don't forget the power business cards—If you used to hand out business cards to clients in your former company, why stop now? Business cards are a cheap and good way to advertise and promote. But instead of putting useless jargon and boring titles, put in your Instant Impact Message.
Offer free coaching—If your business "Helps people feel and look professional and confident by mastering communications skills" than you can always offer free coaching to your prospective clients. Just do a simple class where you can teach them how to speak better, listen better etc. etc. Free coaching can help you cement your position as an expert in your field. When people like what they get from you for free, they are more likely to become paying customers and self-driven marketing machines for your business.
Maximize your local contacts—So over the years you developed a good relationship with the owner of the restaurant right opposite where you live. Now that you have your own business, you have to maximize ALL the contacts you collected over the years. The people you've met in your previous job or social functions can give you extra marketing leverage. So talk to the restaurant guy. See if you can work out a mutually beneficial business relationship. Everyone around you, if you know how to do it, can help you grow your business.

Home Based Tips for Achieving the Perfect Balance
By: Diana Ennen
It's HARD! Most home-based working moms and other entrepreneurs are saying the same thing now, how do I do it all? How can I run a business and balance a family at the same time? I know, I've been working at home since 1985 and although it gets easier, it is still a challenge.
Here are tips for finding balance. They have helped me considerably through the years and I hope you enjoy them as well.
1. Keep in mind that it's a learning process. No one is perfect. One of the greatest gifts I did learn was to no longer beat myself up so much. So what if I didn't do it all today. So what if my house didn't pass a white glove test today (or ever). I really enjoy my business. I really enjoy my family. I feel as long as I do the best I can do, I'm a winner today.
2. To be able to get it all done and enjoy your family, create boundaries, both work-related and personal. You don't want to have to do it all and once you start saying no, you'll be amazed how truly awesome it feels. When you keep in control, things run better. Plus, I believe both your family and clients appreciate knowing what is expected of them.
3. Have a schedule to follow and stick to it as much as possible. Avoid unnecessary interruptions, including constant e-mail checking. Set a timer for checking emails, message boards, routine tasks. Think of time as money. Avoid time robbers such as friends that IM all day just to chat. This isn't to say you can't have fun and friends, you want that, just keep control and don't let it interrupt your day.
4. Get out of the office and do your work whenever possible. I do a lot of writing as a virtual assistant and publicist. Instead of sitting in the office, I go outside and work. It feels great to have a change of pace. A good cup of java and I'm good to go. Plus, find out if you can take your kids places and work. I will often be able to take my kids to the beach where they can play and I can catch up on some edits.
5. Multi task whenever possible. When I prepare dinner, I will often do a crock-pot meal with the meat designated and also prepare a meal in the oven as well so I'll get two meals out of it. You feel like Day 2 is a day off. Also, I'll prepare lunch for tomorrow at dinner. That way I can prepare a healthy lunch and snack the night before for both of us. When I'm not in a rush in the morning, I have more time to devote to putting healthy things together. You'd be amazed how good it feels to stop and eat a pre-made salad or sandwich while working instead of grabbing for something else.
6. Take small vacations to get away. Plan a Friday, Saturday, Sunday vacation. This helps because we don't feel overworked. Also, when you're busy, don't let exercise and going to the gym be the things you give up. You need those for energy.
7. Take weekends and evenings off. It's so easy to get caught up working 24/7. But when you take this time off, you feel so much more energized. And you get to connect more with your children.
Working at home can be a challenge, but it can also be the most rewarding journey ever. I believe that not only I benefit from the experience, but my children as well. They get to see a confident positive mom who loves going to work every day. And that's priceless

Working From Home Has More Advantages Than You Even Know
By: Erik Jacobson
A Stay-at-Home Worker With the advent of the computer and the advancement of technology, working from home has become a growing trend in the working world. Telecommuting, as it is called, is a viable alternative to going to a physical office outside your home.
Whether you are employed by a company as a telecommuter or you are an entrepreneur working from your home, the benefits of such an arrangement are very lucrative.
As we approach a recession, it becomes necessary to cut costs. With telecommuting, you save money on gasoline and clothing. Not only do you save money on gasoline because you don't have to drive to work, but also you save wear and tear on your car. This includes money spent on car repairs such as routine oil changes. When you have a home-based business, you don't have to get dressed up for work.
Thus, you save on money spent for clothing. There are also many psychological advantages to home-based businesses. In today's world, stress is cited as a leading cause of illness. With a home-based business you do not have the stress of getting up by an alarm clock and having to be at a certain place by a certain time. You avoid the stress of traffic.
In addition, not having the stress of a boss over your head might be the major advantage of working at home. You can work at your own pace, independently, without having an authority figure to report to and watch you.
Finally, telecommuting has its social advantages as well. You can spend more time with your family, if you have one, and/or your pets. The comfort and love of these two entities bring inspiration and motivation to the table.
Moreover, working in a warm, familiar environment, rather than the sterile nature of the office, can spur creativity and productivity.
The added income, combined with the lower cost of living, add up to some serious money. Once inside a home based business you will enjoy the positive work experience of having a team of helpful individuals train and teach you the strategies to success.

Why SFI Works For Some And Not For Others - Which Will It Be For YOU?
Why SFI Works For Some And Not For Others—Which Will It Be For YOU?
Thanks to Bill Alland, SFI Bronze Team Leader
When listening to other SFI affiliates on forums, conference calls, and e-mail, you hear SFI success stories and you hear wailings of dismay.
Which ones are true? Both!
Here's why:
SFI works, if you...yes, YOU...
A. Do a little work,
B. Make a tiny commitment, and
C. Do your small part each and every month.
Simple as A, B, C!
Don't follow this simple plan, and you'll find yourself among the wailers.
Commit your efforts to your SFI business and, very soon, you could have your own SFI success story to share with others.
That's because you'll have a plan, a pattern to go by.
Follow the path, the instructions, the recipe, and consistently and persistently duplicate the efforts of others who succeed...and the chances are excellent that you too will succeed!
Don't do your small part, and you're on your own. And it's quite likely you will fail.
Why? People who join an opportunity and then sit back without putting forth the effort are what the industry labels "lookie-loos" or "tire kickers." They walk around the system, check it out, form their opinions, and come to their premature—and often incorrect—conclusions.
And that's OK. After all, it's human nature to want to check something out before jumping right into it. What's NOT OK is when these same people fail to consider there's a better way. They don't stick around long enough to understand and learn about the opportunity sitting right in front of their faces. They then go off on their own without ever realizing that there are literally hundreds of people who have been where they are and who can show them exactly what to do and how to succeed.
They make the BIG mistake of never trying out SFI for themselves, of never following the pattern, the plan, the path already laid out and marked for them. They never commit themselves to success or the SFI home-business system. They don't do their small part. And what happens? They come to the incorrect believe that SFI can't do anything for them. Or, they simply sit back and watch, waiting for others to do it all for them.
Either way, they fail!
But you don't have to be one of them. The fact that you're reading this right now proves that you're ready for success and are willing to put forth the effort to get it.
So, what IS your small part? What can you do NOW to help ensure your home-business success?
Simply this:
1) Find someone—anyone—who wants Security, Freedom, Income, or ALL THREE. Chances are, you know dozens, maybe even hundreds, of people that fit in this category, people who are desiring these things in their lives right now. Just pick ONE.
Then introduce yourself. Get to know that person and let him or her get to know you. Make sure they're in the market for the things you have to give away and sell. Don't mention SFI yet. Instead, focus on the benefits: the tons of free training materials, courses, articles, etc.; the great features of the SFI home-business program; and the quality products and services available.
After you've begun to build a relationship of trust and mutual interests, then—and only then—introduce them to SFI and let the program close the sale for you.
It's at this point that one of three things will happen:
Your prospective customer will not buy into SFI and will go on to something different,
The prospect will like what he/she sees and become a customer of yours and SFI's,
He or she will join you and the SFI global opportunity...or better yet, both 2 and 3!
Remember the saying: "Some will. Some won't. So what? Next!" Don't spend your time worrying about the "lookie-loos" and "tire kickers." Move on to your next prospective home-business team member or customer!
After you've performed this small task, what's left for you to do?
Just two more things:
2) Set an example for your personally sponsored SFI affiliates by committing yourself to success with SFI. Be sure to retain your EA (executive affilate) status each and every month to maximize your earnings.
3) Let your personally sponsored affiliates know that they too must commit to SFI and do their small part to reach success. It's the way folks succeed with SFI and make money. In other words, these new folks must do as you have done...or fail.
It's called Teaching and Duplication.
Tell your team members what you know and show them where you found that information. Then, simply repeat the process again with another person...and keep on doing it.
It's that simple: 1, 2, 3. Nothing else. Following this simple recipe, you can now refuse to wail in dismay and separate yourself from the "tire kickers" and "lookie-loos"...the people who never get it, and who never do it. People who will always be wondering how others have succeeded and who will never make it big...in anything, ever.
The bottom line? Take charge of your SFI business now, and join the people who get it!
And remember: "If it's to be, it's up to me!"
To Your Great Success!

How Affiliate Marketing Businesses Can Generate Online Income
By: Juhani Tontti
What is affiliate marketing?
To put it simply, it means that the affiliate business marketer promotes his merchant`s products or services and gets commission, if the prospect will buy.
Now the affiliate marketing business merchant sets up the business facilities, i.e. promotion material, products, payment systems, training, support and up-dating. This helps the affiliate in business very much, because he can concentrate into promotions.
1. Affiliate Marketing Business Shortens The Learning Process.
For many new people in the affiliate business marketing, it would be just impossible to start without merchant, because what he gets as a ready-made package would be beyond his skills.
2. To Start Online Using Your Totally Own Material Would Be Costly.
On the top of the needed skills, the starting costs would be above starter`s budget. Now the merchant has produced the necessary promotion material and used very expensive experts, because he can share the costs with so many affiliate marketing business owners. This keeps the quality high.
3. The Training Is So Effective That Who Ever Can Do It.
One of the beauties of the affiliate marketing is, that a good program has so enthusiastic training course that it makes it`s job: draws the a new affiliate into the fascinating world of this business immediately.
4. Attitude Is Affiliate`s Strongest Power.
As said above, anyone can learn online marketing with the help of the training course, mentor and online support. Because there are no business hours, the learning process is very flexible, the system works day and night, 24/7/365.
5.The Online Marketing Is Extremely Rewarding.
The learning process brings new skills quickly and new skills bring online income quickly. Because the whole affiliate business is an information business, the improving skills are in the main role of rewarding.
6. When You Learn To Promote You Can Use It All Over The Net.
The secret in the learning process is to select one or just few affiliate business marketing strategies, learn them and repeat them so much that you will became an expert.
Many Internet Marketing Gurus' still turn to the affiliate marketing when they need an extra online income. By leveraging their enormous mailing lists, they are able to bring in thousands of dollars with a single email marketing campaign, even with one email!
For most of the starters, the affiliate business is the realistic and quickest way to learn the cornerstones of affiliate marketing business and then use that skill for new products again and again. That is the real beauty of the affiliate business marketing.

How To Profit From Affiliate Marketing

In today's tech-driven environment, many people are doing business online through a marketing method called affiliate marketing. Many participants in this unique online marketing program are earning substantial incomes.
In order to make it big in this field, there are some things that you can do to make yourself stand out from other affiliates, and quicken the process of increasing your earnings along the way. In affiliate marketing, it is not essential that you have your own Web site or your own products and services.
This Marketing Program Is Considered One Of The Easiest Methods
Many online marketing analysts consider affiliate marketing as one of the easiest ways to earning profits online, and most make good incomes right from the start. In order to craft an effective online marketing strategy, the first good thing to do is to conduct a thorough research, and choose a great program to join, as well as find the best possible products or services to sell or refer, as this will give you the best vehicle for getting a significant amount of profits in the shortest time possible.
How To Get Significant Profits From Affiliate Marketing
This novel online marketing method is considered a great way of profiting from the Internet. In this method, you promote other people's products and get commissions when there is a sale generated from your marketing efforts. What are the best ways of gaining better profit margins with this program?
- Choose The Right Products And Services To Market.
First, research on the products and services that are in tune with the preferences and needs of your potential target customers, as there may be any number of similar products in one category. Choose the products or services that have a solid brand name, image, pricing scheme, and are in constant demand. By doing this, you will be able to accelerate your goal of getting substantial profits through a high sales volume.
Once a product you promote gains customer approval and acceptance, customer levels of confidence will rise and they will learn to trust you more. It will also entice them try the other products that you add to your list. As you keep increasing the number of products and services you promote, you should also expect your profits to rise.
- Throw in A Lot Of Hard Work.
You may find it surprising, but some people still think that this type of marketing program is a quick get-rich scheme. As there is no such thing as earning profits without putting in any type effort in this world, in affiliate marketing, your aim should be to create as many exposures for your links as possible on the Internet. This process will require you to keep on the lookout for new marketing strategies in planting links, crafting creative business strategies, and so forth. All these require a great deal of determination, discipline, initiative, and significant time and effort.
- Ensure you drive Targeted Traffic.
Many new affiliates think that by just sending any traffic to a site, there will be sales. In this type of marketing, the quality of the traffic counts a lot too. You need ready buyers to visit your marketing page, so that they will be more likely to take action and buy through your page.
- Create A customer list or database.
You need to have an opt-in list, because you need to get your visitor's information such as name and email address, as some individuals will usually not buy on their first visit to a Web site. It's vital that you have an opt-in list that captures their information first, or else you will lose them for good whenever they do not buy over at your affiliate sales page.

Work From Home - Creating Your Future
Work From Home - Creating Your Future
By: Wanda Grindstaff
It is a fact, the Home Based Business arena is the fastest growing segment of our economy. Being an entrepreneur and a Home Business Owner, funny how when people ask what I do, they immediately think I am going to recruit them into "one of those" things. I have to laugh.
There was a time when I thought the same thing. That was before I realized the majority of new millionaires in the USA were from Home Based Businesses. And now, I know many of them myself. People who "got it". People who understand about free enterprise and how to create their future.
But this is not something we are taught. We are taught, go to school, get good grades, get a good job, do as you are told and retire with a good pension. Yeah, Right! First of all, I tried that only to be fired with 28 years on the good job and no benefits or income. So what did I do, I got real mad. Mad at myself, for not taking control of the situation earlier in my life and creating my own future.
So now, looking back over the past few years, comparing where I was to where I am, it is mind boggling how far I, we have come. Now we live where we want to live, we travel when we want, we sleep in if we choose (cold winter days), or get up early just to play on the beach any day we choose. We are free. Our phone does not ring in the middle of the night any longer and I do not have to plan my vacation based on when my boss wants me to go. Life is wonderful.
But getting to this point in life takes a few things.
1) It takes a decisionThings don't just happen, they are created. You must decide what you are going to create
2) It takes actionYou have to move forward and action is what creates results
3) It takes knowing WhyYou must know why you do what you do. You must have something driving you, something all consuming, something bigger than yourself
4) It takes clarity on your goalsIf you do not know where you are going, you will never get there. Be crystal clear on your goals.
5) And it takes a vehicleTo live free, you must have an excellent income. Make sure you have a business model which supports your goals. If your goal is to make $50k per month, make sure you have a business capable of producing that level of income very quickly.
6) It takes commitmentTo yourself, to your why and to your goals
7) And it takes good mentoringFind people who have accomplished what you are looking for and follow them. Stay close, observe and take on their habits and their posture.
So just go for it. Anyone can be free to work from home and create an amazing and abundant life. But you have to put all the pieces together. If you miss any of the pieces listed above, you will never completely reach your goal, you will end up settling. Never settle, never give up and remember.
If you are not on the right path now, change the course and go another path. But YOU have to do it, no one will do it for you.

Get Google Ads Free Now!
A new breakthrough secret is all you now need in order to get your Google AdWords pay-per-clicks FREE!
A gentleman from New York discovered what he calls an "oversight" on the part of 99.9% of all marketers that allows him to get otherwise paid-for advertising at Google as well as all other search engines that allow sponsored ads.
And no, nothing about his "secret" is illegal - nor does it require that you know someone on the "inside" at Google, Yahoo, MSN, Overture and others.
Instead, the New Yorker boasts proudly "...this is something that I caught onto just before 2000 when there was so much search engine craze running around, and started doing small just to test things at first ... but which I later expanded on after getting the hang of it."
This same fellow went on to start and operate sixteen separate online companies selling everything from pet food, DVDs, children's toys & games, books, software, and sold not only his own manufactured products but became an affiliate for other web businesses - all the while applying his mastermind secret.
Over the course of nearly eight years the New Englander confesses "I've actually gotten over $87 million in advertising that using my secret I never had to pay for ... and the largest share of which was more recently in Google pay-per-clicks as well as other forms of pad advertising at search engines ... all of which I got for free ..."
So powerful is his secret that he's able to monopolize any niche online, and can always secure the top premium spots just above the usual organic results featured at most search engines.
He still has to set up an account with the search engines - but after applying his secret he is removed from having to pay for all the costs otherwise involved.Again, nothing about his secret is either illegal or robs from the search engines.
One spokesperson from one of the most popular search engines said chuckling after being made privy to this amazing secret "Wow! Ha! This is really unique ... and in my expert opinion it would only serve to enhance and bring more business to us at [name of search engine withheld for legal & confidentiality reasons] and not cause us to lose business in the slightest. Amazing!"
The northerner revealed that in this nearly eight years' period of time since applying his secret he's done well over $300 million in sales revenue with a most diverse line of products, and most recently in the last two years netted nearly $166 million after really "buckling down and pressing my secret to its fullest potential."
Now to everyone else's fortune, the city slicker is releasing his secret for getting an unlimited amount of pay-per-click ads to the general public. But he's not promising any of us for how long.
A bit of an eccentric, the gentleman says "We'll see just how long I can make it available before it saturates things."
One famous public web guru pointed out that although this man may gain economically more so as a result of the publication of his secret "he's already so amazingly rich that whether he continues or discontinues its sale will neither make nor break the man, but not grabbing it for yourself while it's still available could prove disastrous for you as you may only have one chance, and a very limited one at that, to get this."
It is currently available at:
http://jamesparmi.freegoogle.hop.clickbank.net
...so you may want to head on over there now and get it.
It's in a very easily readable format and is quickly and readily understood and mastered by anyone with even a 4th grade reading level.
While you're there, why not scroll down and review for yourself the huge successes others are now having with this incredible breakthrough in targeted advertising now made freely available
to the rest of us?
To your success,

42 Killer Domain Secrets Exposed!
42 Killer Domain Secrets Exposed!
Copyright © 2004 Jim Symonds
Every website needs a domain name. Example "WebBootCamp.com" is a domain name. Your domain is your website address, a.k.a. URL (universal resource locator). Should you use your company name for your domain? Maybe, maybe not. Is it memorable? Easy to spell? Does it contain keywords that relate to your business? For more considerations on choosing a domain, I've put together the following checklist.
Pick a memorable name. How catchy is it? Would the average person be able to remember just your website name, without looking through their bookmarks (if they have even bothered to bookmark it, that is)? Make it easy to spell! Face it, most people can't spell. Try to target for the masses when you pick your name. Think of everyone having a 7th grade education.
Make it short, try for a two or three word domain. When possible, name your company the same as your domain name. Whether you actually add .com to your company's name makes little difference.
Use keywords in your domain. Try services like http://inventory.overture.com/d/searchinventory/suggestion/, https://adwords.google.com/select/tools.html, and wordtracker.com to see what people are searching for, in BIG NUMBERS, related to your subject.
Don't use numbers or hyphens. These are easily overlooked or forgotten when people type in your domain. Unless you're using a stand out combination like 911alert or 123homerepair, don't go numeric. If you use hyphens, then every time you tell someone your domain, you have to say "it's blah-blah-blah.com - with the hyphens". This is not impressive, and you risk losing traffic to blahblahblah.com. You're asking your potential customers to work harder, to remember tedious details about your name. Simplicity is important, because you want them to find you. You're building a brand here.
Don't buy any other extension except a ".com" This is the best branded domain extension, highly known and trusted. Any other extension is practically worthless, in my book. In addition to being first in the minds of the public, remember also that most people trying to find a company will put a .com after that company's name in their browser. It's second nature to most of us. A .org can bring attention for non profits, but even most of those companies will try to purchase a .com as well.
Avoid running names together that end in a vowel and begin in a vowel. EXAMPLE: freeebook.com Also try to avoid having the second word start with the same letter as the last letter of the last word. These combinations can look weird, and are often likely to be misread or simply forgotten. By avoiding these two combinations, along with numbers and hyphens, we make sure our words (and our brand) will stand out.
EXAMPLE: WebmasterNow.com
Good For Starting Sentences, Not Domains Avoid starting your name with THE, or A, if being used as the word A. EXAMPLE asimplehome.com - "a" is likely to be forgotten. While it is true that directory listings usually list alphabetically, search engines do not.
If you can come up with a catchy name starting with "a", by all means, do so. You may find yourself first in the yellow page listings. Have a look there first, and see what the competition looks like. What are their names, how do they rank?
Now, here's where it gets interesting. You'll see that names starting with numbers get displayed first (for non paid listings). So the big question becomes, is yours the type of product or service that will do well from yellow page traffic? You must carefully weigh this against overall branding of your company.
You could of course, have more than one domain, and more than one brand for your company, but be careful about promoting the same sites with different names to the same search engines. You could find yourself banned from those search engines altogether.
Brand New?
Don't pick your name as your domain name, unless you're famous. Names aren't keywords (won't help your search engine rankings), and usually easily forgotten. Unless you've built a big brand around your name already, stick to a good key phrase! It is much easier to brand.
Who's who, and is my name taken?
To search available domains, and to find out who owns registered ones, use the whois function at http://www.internic.net/. If you come across a registered domain, it will show you where it was registered. The next step to detecting the identity of the actual owner, is to visit the registrar (this is where the domain was registered) site listed, and use their whois search. This should provide you with name, address, phone number and email of the rightful owner. Unfortunately, this information is not always available, but it is most of the time.
A Common Myth Equals Missed Opportunities All the great domains are taken. Hogwash! The dirty little secret is, thousands of great domains expire every day! Here's a handy resource for finding great expired and expiring domains - http://deleteddomains.com/ - I've found some real gems here, like webbootcamp.com, webmastertoolset.com, customoilpainting.com and customoilpaintings.com - all formerly owned and let go, just to name a few.
When applicable, do try to get the singular and plural versions of your domain like we just saw with customoilpainting(s). When one could be easily be mistaken for the other, it helps to be covered this way. You're also protecting your brand.
Another expiring domain service to check out is snapcheck.com. They have some interesting statistics for expiring domains, such as google page rank and yahoo and dmoz listed domains. Bear in mind that any "perceived value" on a domain put there by a search engine listing or page rank is inherently fleeting. That's because the content that was responsible for that listing is now gone, and it is simply a matter of time before the search engine's spiders crawl the site again, and re-evaluate it's content. In other words, the search engine ranking is very likely going to disappear soon, unless you quickly repopulate the site with compelling content, worthy of the rank the original site had.
Roads To Nowhere, No Stops Ahead
One tasty bonus that accompanies a popular site is link popularity. This is how many other websites link to the domain in question. Think of a link as a road into your website. Quite often, webmasters do not update their links when the site they're linking to changes or disappears altogether. So if you find an expired (or soon to be expired) domain with high link popularity (many links to the domain), it may well stay that way for some time to come.
Case in point: special-report-network.net was once a very successful ad network run by online marketing guru Allen Says. For reasons unknown, he shut down the site and let the domain expire. The domain had over 14,000 links pointing to it! The weird part is, it still does! Want proof? Go to alltheweb.com and search for "link:http://www.special-report-network.net/", without the quotation marks. This will show all the sites linking to it. The domain got snatched up by Ultimate Search, a hong kong company that registers thousands of domains, and makes money from paid search results. The site has nothing to do with the original ad network site that Allen built and made successful, yet the links remain, and links equal traffic.
Bear in mind not all links are created equal. Link farms (A.K.A. FFA or "free for all" links pages), and seldom visited by real people. Instead, automated programs add people's URLs when they submit to a mass submission service, hoping to generate big traffic. Instead, all they get is a bunch of spam, which they've agreed to receive, in order for using the service. How can I snag that expiring hottie? When you find a name that is pending deletion (the owner hasn't renewed it), the next step is to try to secure it, the moment it becomes available.
Strangely, domains do not fall back into the pool of availability the day they expire. It can take up to 60 days or more in some cases for them to "drop", and the times are not announced. Thankfully, there are automated services to perform this task for us, such as Namewinner.com, Snapnames.com, Expirefish.com, and Pool.com. Prices vary, and none can guarantee success. Namewinner lets users bid against each other for expiring domains and only the winner pays, while Snapnames and Expirefish are first come, first served, meaning only one user has a shot at grabbing a particular domain. Snapnames also has the most registrar partners, (including Network Solutions), which may give them an edge for securing expiring domains that are currently registered with their partners. They also have the highest price tag, and you pay whether or not they secure your name. Pool.com is a newcomer that seems to rival the services of Snapnames, with better prices.
One more method you might try, is going directly to the current owner. Let's say your desired dropping domain is already "back ordered" on Snapnames.com, and Expirefish.com. Now you can still bid for it at Namewinner.com, and Pool.com, but you feel the odds are against you. If you're really hot on the name, and willing to pay a premium, you may be able to bypass the solutions above, simply by cutting a deal with the current owner. This can be a bit risky however, because once the owner realizes your interest, they may decide to ask for a unreasonable sum of money, or simply see value in the domain again (generated from your interest), and renew it as an investment.
Assuming you can make a deal, you may want to suggest using escrow.com, which eliminates the possibility of fraud for both of you. The owner will need to renew the domain before they can transfer it to you. The Website Graveyard - Visit Those Spooky Remains! Once you've found a deleted or soon to be deleted domain you fancy, you might want to take a trip into the past, to see what that site used to be! Now bear in mind most domains that are registered are never developed, so there may be nothing at all to see. But for those domains with a tangible history, we can often peek at their ghost, courtesy of the wayback machine at http://www.archive.org/.
One Owner, Driven Only On Sundays Another way to check the history of a domain, is simply to search for it. Try searching google, and groups.google.com, to see what people may have said about the site. You may think twice about purchasing a domain with a sketchy history. Speculators Beware! Don't go overboard and buy every known extension for your brand - (.net, .org, .biz, .info, etc.). Big corporations like google can afford to buy all the country domains. When you're starting out, remember, domain fees are yearly, and you need to consider the lifelong cost of each domain.
For most people, one domain is just fine. You may think snatching up good domains and reselling them would be a lucrative business. The problem is, finding a buyer is not easy. In fact, that's an understatement. Don't register domains containing trademarks. You will likely here from that company's legal department if you do, and will be forced to relinquish the name by The World Intellectual Property Organization (WIPO), or a lawsuit, or both. Who's in charge? Icann (The Internet Corporation for Assigned Names and Numbers) oversees the domain registration business. Their URL is http://www.icann.org/. If you ever have trouble with your registrar, it may be worth reporting to Icann. Case in point: A client of mine tried to switch his domain to another registrar (at my suggestion), to get added free features (free URL forwarding), and save money. His current registrar denied the transfer, and tried to charge him a fee for leaving! Once we threatened to take up the matter with Icann, and publicly expose them at Icann's forum (http://forum.icann.org/regxfer), they immediately backed down, and released the domain.
If you believe someone has registered a domain that infringes on your trademark (or has infringed on your intellectual property), the authority to see is The World Intellectual Property Organization (WIPO), at http://wipo.org/ Brand Awareness Capitalize each word of your domain in your sig files and letterhead, and anywhere else you advertise your domain. It helps your brand stand out. EXAMPLE: http://www.webbootcamp.com/ looks better than http://www.webbootcamp.com/ Also, only add in http://www. when you're creating links back to your site (i.e., email, websites, and online forms).
In all your offline advertising, such as signs, business cards and letterhead, you should definitely skip http://www and just use "YourDomain.com". You only have a second or two of people's attention when they see your URL, so make it count. Brand that name! Just make sure your web host has your site set up to show without WWW. Most sites are correctly set up to display when a person types in "YourDomain.com", or "www.YourDomain.com" but a handful, maybe 10% or so will show page not found, if you skip "www". That could be devastating, so check with your host, and demand that your site come up either way! Ready To Buy Your .com? Don't overpay! I'm still surprised that many people don't know they can buy domains for under $10 these days. Shop around.
Currently I recommend http://www.tosdomains.net/. They offer a lot of extras like URL and email forwarding, free. Keep Your Registration Current! Don't let your domain expire! You cannot afford to be even a day late in payment. If it falls into the redemption period, you may find yourself high jacked by your registrar for an outrageous renewal fee. See this illuminating article for more about the redemption period - "Domain Redemption Period Farce Exposed!" here: http://www.sitepoint.com/article/1034. If your expired domain falls back into the available pool, it may be registered by anyone, and you may have little recourse trying to recover it.
The easiest way to ensure you are sent renewal notices for your domain is to keep your email contact current for your domain. Perhaps the most common reason for people losing their domains, is simply that they switch ISPs, and subsequently, their email address changes, and they forget to update that information with their domain registrar. If you own a lot of domains, keeping up with administration can be tedious. One trick I rely on, is to use one domain for my primary business email address, and on that registration "admin" contact, I use my ISP email. For all my other domain registrations, I use my primary business email address (based on my primary domain, which I will never let go). Now, if I should switch ISPs, all I need to concern myself with is changing that one domain record, to reflect my new ISP email. All my other domain records have that primary domain email as the admin contact, so as long as I keep the one record current (and keep the email account active), all will be current, and all domain renewal notices will be sent to me.
In the end, it's not so much about the name, as it is what you make of it. Just look at all the big successful internet companies out there with strange names! Yahoo!

10 Mesmerizing Ways To Reinforce Your Profits
10 Mesmerizing Ways To Reinforce Your Profits
http://www.pips.visit.ws
1. Anticipate any objections your visitors may have
about your product offer. You must research your
target audience's needs and wants.
2. Remember not to use outrageous or unbelievable
claims in your ad copy. People are too savvy online
and won't believe you.
3. Pick a good name for your business and product.
Your names should be memorable and describe the
kind of product your offering.
4. Solve your customer complaints by being quick
and friendly. The faster you respond, the more your
customers feel you care about them.
5. Never think your customers are satisfied with
their purchase. You should be constantly finding
new ways to better your product and service.
6. Market yourself, as well as your product. You
could write articles, ebooks, do free consulting,
do speaking engagements, etc.
7. Find new target audiences for your products or
services. For example, if you're selling coffee to
stores try to also sell it to coffee shops.
8. Use the phrase "invest in our product" instead of
the words buy or purchase. This makes prospects
feel they're investing in their future if they buy.
9. Create offline affiliates to market your product.
Have people sign up at your web site to sell your
products through "house parties".
10. Use logos and slogans for your business. They
make it easier for people to remember and identify
your business.

10 Killer Ways To Sell Your Back-End Products
10 Killer Ways To Sell Your Back-End Products
http://www.JaimeParmis.com/pips.html
A back-end product is a product you attempt to sell
your customers after they have recently purchased a
related product from your business.
If you're not trying to sell back-end products to your
customers, you're making a big mistake. It is easier to
sell to existing customers than it is to sell to new ones
who don't trust your business yet.
Below are ten killer strategies you can use to sell your
back-end products to your existing customers:
1. When you ship people the first product they bought,
insert a flyer or brochure for your back-end product
in the package.
2. Give customers a free subscription to a customers
only e-zine when they buy your product. You could
include your ad for your back-end product in each
issue.
3. Send your customers greeting cards on holidays or
on their birthday. Include a small advertisement inside
the card for your back-end product.
4. After people order your first product from your web
site, take them to a "thank you" web page and include
your back-end product ad on that page.
5. Send customers a free surprise gift after they order
your first product. You could attach another ad with
the free gift for your back-end product.
6. If you're selling an electronic product, like an ebook,
include your ad for your back-end product somewhere
inside the electronic product.
7. Give your customers a free membership into your
"customers only" private site. You could include your
ad for your back-end product somewhere inside
the private site.
8. Contact your customers by phone and ask them if
they were happy with their purchase. You could tell
them about your back-end product.
9. Send your customers a thank you letter by mail or
e-mail. You could mention your back-end product
somewhere on the letter.
10. Ask your customers if they want to be updated in
the future when you have new product offers. You
could have them sign up to receive e-mail or snail
mail updates.
Your business will have a greater chance of surviving
when you attempt to sell back-end products to your
existing customers.

How To Become Financially Independent In Less Than 3 Years Through SFI
How To Become Financially Independent In Less Than 3 Years Through SFI
by Winston Saga
Wish you all a great month. I am sure this year is going to be a year of Prosperity, Abundance and Great Health.
There is a time to sow and a time to reap. If you sow more, you will reap more. If you sow little, you will reap little. You cannot sow and reap in the same season. Everything has a season.
If you think of poverty, you will become poor.
If you think of prosperity, you will become rich. If you keep your mind healthy, your body will be healthy. If your mind is weak and timid, the body will become sick and stressed out.
People always talk about their bills, pay checks, and their circumstances. I will advise you to talk to your inner mind and also to your friends and family about good health, prosperity and happiness. The more positive thoughts you feed your mind, the healthier your mind and body becomes.
A good friend of mine became a millionaire in one year using "auto suggestion." Auto Suggestion helps you to reprogram your subconscious mind. If your mind is negative, filled with fear, doubt, and worry, you will live in a negative vibration all the time. Everything in this world is energy. We are nothing but energy. If you have negative energy all the time, you will have a very painful life. If you have positive energy, you will have a very successful and fruitful life.
It is very easy to change from negative to positive. It takes 21 to 30 days to change the way you think. Start saying to yourself,
I am a happy person, and I make other people happy.
I always think good thoughts in my mind.
I am very rich. I am a Millionaire.
Repeat that 100 times before going to bed. The good news is you don't have to meditate or relax your mind. Again, repeat it 100 times when you wake up in the morning. Right through the morning, repeat the same affirmation. Your old thoughts will come and bombard you, but don't worry...slowly, your old thoughts will give way to the new thoughts. If you want to become rich, you should think of riches all the time. If you want to be healthy, you should think of health all the time. If you want to be poor, think of poverty all the time. It is your golden choice.
Enjoy every minute of your life. See life to the fullest. The mediocre see the cup as half empty, a prosperous person see it as half full. Whenever you have time, say to yourself:
I am healthy. I am happy. I am rich. I am successful. I love myself. I reject all thoughts that cause worry and anxiety. Worry is a useless habit. I am calm and peaceful person. I always make other people happy. I am kind person. I give my love to the poor and needy.
You cannot become rich by working for someone. You will make your boss and your company rich. SFI could make you rich with as little as 20 minutes a day. Send newsletters to your affiliates every week. Send motivational tips. The way you can make money in SFI is by helping other people. The more people you help, the more successful you become.
SFI really works. Become an Executive Affiliate and start earning money. Talk to your friends, colleagues, barber, dairy owner, super market staffs, your dentist, courier person, mail delivery person, and paper boy. You won't know who is waiting for an opportunity.
I e-mailed couple of my friends. I got a response from two of them saying they were glad I e-mailed them. They were looking around to start a home business. Immediately they joined.
There is opportunity everywhere. There are 7 billion people in this world. All you need is three good people to help you. If you set your goals—with a purpose, a road map, and persistence and determination—you will be on your way to success.
Surround yourself with successful people. Read motivational and sales books. Read autobiographies and biographies of great men and women. Listen to tapes and watch videos. If you follow these instructions for the next two years, you will be a different person. You will think differently; your knowledge will be different from other people; you will walk differently; you will respect other people; you will have more money in your bank account; and, above all, you will have great health.
Reading makes a full person. See Gery Carson (founder and president of SFI) as your role model. Spend time with two or three people who have the same interest as yours. Have a master-mind program. Help one another, and things will come easy for you. Share your experience, knowledge, and wisdom.
If you spend two years working the SFI program, you can earn $5,000 a month...it just takes a little effort.
Let this year be a year of prosperity, abundance and great health.
Remember, overcome procrastination, motivate yourself, and be the person you want to be! See yourself as successful. YOU create your circumstances...circumstances never create you. It is your choice. To become rich is your choice; to become healthy is your choice; to become confident is your choice. You are created in the image of God. God wants you to be successful, prosperous, confident, happy and blessed.
Show unconditional love and, above all, charity. Give 10 to 15% to the poor and needy. When you give money to the poor—the poor won't be able to return the money back to you—you are lending to God, and He will pay you back 10 times more. Don't say to yourself "When I get the money I will give." It will never happen. Give what you have and see the difference. First, you will become a different person and, secondly, you will be filled with love, joy, good health, and prosperity.
If you haven't yet advanced to Executive Affiliate (EA) status, go here:
http://www.sfimg.com/ea
Keep in mind, you can advance to EA status. Make the best use of it. Many network marketing programs cost you more than $1500 dollars to start with. With SFI you can start your own home business with "0" dollars! A fantastic organisation...Be a part of it.
Wishing you the very best.
