With help from the right place, you can be successful with a business of your own. If you are a Christian, you can get more help from God than anywhere on the net! He can and will give you the guidance and help that you need to have a successful home business, if you will believe that He will do it and have faith in Him. You must let Him guide you and listen to Him - he knows what is best for your life and your situation.
Many people (Christians included) try to make it all on their own. Through much frustration and aggravation, they eventually lose all patience and end up giving up on their dreams. They never even think to go to the Lord with their problems! If they only realized that they are making it more difficult on themselves! Remember to make prayer a daily part of your life. Ask God to help you go in the right direction with your business, give you patience, and help you know what steps you need to take to realize your dream. Believe in Him with everything you have, put your business in His hands, and you will get great rewards!
Of course, you do have to help yourself. God will help you, but you have to help yourself. He does not want to hand you success on a silver platter, he wants you to work for it and earn it. He knows who trusts in Him, who works hard to try and better their lives. If you make an honest effort to better your life, your family and your business, put your faith and trust in Him, he will answer your prayers and give you the guidance you need to be successful in anything you do.

Accomplish Something EVERY Day
If you are trying to start an online business, or you already have one, it's very important to do something every single day to further your business. Whether posting on your blog, writing an article, whatever it may be, get something accomplished. Building an online presence is a slow task, similar to building a brick building, brick by brick. Most days, I like to do several different things for my business, but occasionally there are days you just can't spend alot of time. On those days, pick one task you want to accomplish, and DO it! You will feel better about your business and yourself. A neglected business is a failing business.

Honesty - How Refreshing!
A couple of days ago, I was surfing TrafficSwarm and came upon a home business opportunity that I thought looked pretty interesting. Of course it was FREE (ha-ha) as so many programs claim to be, only for you to find out after you enter your name and e-mail address that it really isn't. I e-mailed the person who I signed up under requesting proof that he had been paid by this program before I spent time setting it all up, testing it out to see if I would make any money, and putting it on my Home Business site. I was absolutely amazed when I received an e-mail back from him, saying he was still in the program, but he refused to pay all of the upgrade charges (this opportunity has multiple sites you join to make money). He told me he had been in the program since October 2006 (over a year) and hadn't made any money! Not many people will be that honest with you, and I really appreciated that honesty. When you work at home, you don't have time to spend working on something that is not going to produce any results! This person knows who he is, and if he reads this post, THANK YOU SO MUCH!

Why the Bad Rap?
Mention the words "Direct Sales", and people look at you as though you have cursed at them! I don't know what started this bad karma, but it simply isn't deserved. I made several sales calls in my local town this morning, and I actually enjoy it! Why not? You get to meet new people, see the products they carry, and even make some money every now and then. And sometimes you learn a few things, such as what types of products people like and what types of prices they charge. This helps you go back to make a second call. You know what types of products they are looking for, and what their price range is, making it even easier to sell to them the second time! If you believe in your products, direct sales is THE way to go when you desire to make a good living from home. There are so many different ways to market: To the public as I have been demonstrating above, home parties, church friends, online, the list is endless! So if you think direct sales is such a bad thing, don't believe it - try it for yourself sometime!

Hard Headed? A Home Business May be for You!
Many people try every day to start a home business of their own, but very few succeed. It takes perserverance, dedication and patience to be successful in starting your own home business. It also takes a willingness to learn. If you don't have these qualities, you shouldn't even waste your time.

Weary of the Forty Hour Work Week?
Are your working 40 hours per week making someone else money? That is what the biggest percentage of our population does, day after day, week after week. If you are dreaming of having your own business and the luxury of working from your own home, it is possible! You can work the hours you want, the days you want, and plan your work around your life, not the other way around!
It takes time and dedication, but working at home is so rewarding that it is certainly worth the effort and perserverance it takes to achieve your goal.
First of all, you need to decide just what type of home business you want to pursue. Is your interest in electronics? How about candles, computers, e-books or some type of software? Whatever your interest is, that is where you need to concentrate your efforts. If you try to pursue a business where the product or service doesn't really interest you, it will never have a chance to succeed. You must believe in what you have to offer!
Once you have decided what type of business you are going to set up, you then concentrate on either building a website (or having someone do it for you), or joining an affiliate program which offers the types of products you are looking for. An affiliate program will allow you to sell someone else's product and make a percentage on each item or service you sell. This can usually be done without a website, or if you do have a website, you can advertise these products there. Joining several affiliate programs gives you the opportunity to make even more money!
If you do have your own products or services to offer, put them on your website, and once your website is ready it's time to advertise! Whether working with affiliate programs or your own products, advertising is what gets people to your site - without traffic, you have no sales!
There are endless options for advertising your programs. Many of them don't cost you a dime, and are extremely effective. Writing articles with a link to your site in the author box is a great way to generate traffic. Posting in forums, submitting your site to directories, exchanging links with other site owners, uploading your site to Google Base - these are all excellent ways to send more visitors to your site. More visitors equal more sales! The more links to your website, the better rank you will have with search engines, and this is extremely important when trying to get a good page ranking.
Be ready to spend plenty of time and effort when building your business. It's not easy, and it does take patience, work, and lot's of studying and learning from others. You will learn new things every day from reading other peoples experiences on forums, networking groups, all over the net. But it really is fun and rewarding. Dedicate yourself, map out a plan, and you can create a successful home business for yourself!

Stay In for the Long Haul
If you have been involved in online marketing or any online business for very long, you know you didn't become a success overnight. Making money and turning your business into a success take much time and effort. If you are a newbie to internet business, be prepared to spend many weeks and months, possibly even a year or two, to get where you want to be. It is a very slow process, and involves learning advertising, promotion, patience and perserverance. Work on your business every single day, not for 30 minutes or an hour, but 2 or 3 hours if you have the time. Set goals for yourself, and keep telling yourself you WILL do this! If you set smaller goals, it's easier to meet them and you feel much satisfaction that you accomplished something. As you go along, your goals will grow and become easier to achieve. There is alot of learning and knowledge gathering to becoming a success on the internet - there is an enormous amount of competition. But keep focused, keep working, and you WILL be a success!

Expand Your Horizons!
I have a new business I will be starting in a couple of weeks, and I am so excited! This will actually be my own business, but I will still continue with my other programs, My Power Mall and Entertainment for Less. I have always read online to have multiple streams of income, and not to put all of your eggs in one basket. I believe this is very true, because you never know what will work and what won't. I know the programs I am already in do work because I have made good money with them. I hope my new business does as well as my current programs do! I believe it will. And that is a big part of how well you do in making your work at home dreams come true, believing in yourself and knowing you can do it. I am naming my new business Home Decor and Gifts Galore. I think that is a catchy name, and it describes what I will have available perfectly! If you work online, try expanding your horizons - join 2 or 3 programs, that way you give yourself more options when it comes to your income. And if one thing doesn't work, maybe the other will - you learn from everything you do and experience. Just remember, believe you will, and you will. Believe you won't, and you will be right on that one too.

Good and Bad Times - This Week has been Good!
When you work at home, there are good weeks and bad weeks. This one has been an exceptionally good week, and I love those kinds! If you are just starting out working online, I just want to give you some advice: Be patient, keep on trying and don't lose faith. If you stay focused, keep working each and every day and give it your all, you will do it! I will tell you it definitely will not happen over night, or even in a few weeks. It takes dedication, and it will probably take months before you actually start to feel that you are accomplishing something, and getting closer to your goals of making money from home. This week has been wonderful for me - I have worked hard and gotten many signups in my programs. You do have to work hard, don't believe any of the 'work 30 minutes a day' stuff that you see out there, it just isn't true. You will never have a good income given to you on a silver platter, so if that's what you are looking for, look no further and stop wasting your time. If you are looking for something that is relatively easy, however, My Power Mall is a great program, you can make a good income with a little work, and it's absolutely free to join, never costs you a thing. This program and Entertainment 4 Less are the two programs I absolutely will make money with, and it took me months of jumping around from one opportunity to the next to finally land on something that works for me. I hope you have had a good week. Just remember, if you are just starting out, have patience, be dedicated and work hard! It will get you what you want in life.

Like the Pointer Sisters, I'm So Excited - I Just Can't Hide It!
Only 2 days left to go and we launch! Entertainment 4 Less is opening its doors and I can hardly wait. I honestly believe this will be one of the biggest income generating programs to ever hit the net.
In the last few days I have had several people join. I believe the reality of just how much income people will be able to generate is really setting in. With products that are widely used each and every day by the general public and the extremely low prices we will have, how could we lose?
And the pay plan at E4LBiz is unbeatable! For each personally sponsored person in my downline, I will make a 100% matching bonus on everything they sell also. This is definitely exciting, and I am looking forward to a great career with Entertainment 4 Less!
This is going to be a big-time winner and I am definitely looking forward to August 1, 2007!

A Mind is a Terrible Thing to Waste!
Ever have those days when you just can't stay focused on your home business? Well, today was one of those days for me.
Most days I am very well organized and get alot of work done. Today was one of those days when my mind just didn't seem to want to cooperate, and I spent way too much time just staring blankly at my computer screen, like "What do I do next?". I really hate these kinds of days, it seems that I have wasted so much valuable time that I could have been doing something that would really help my business. But, I guess everyone has those days. I'm just glad they are few and far between!
Well, tomorrow will be a better day, and I will accomplish enough to make up for today. That's the way I look at it, and it helps me keep a positive attitude, which is necessary when you have your own home business. Never lose your can-do attitude, no matter how bad of a day you have!

Me, Myself and I - Can You Work for Yourself?
Do you dream of starting your own home business? Well, why don't you? This isn't a difficult question. You probably have fears about following your dream or you would have done it already. We need to determine the things that are standing in your way and persuade you to let go of your fears and dare to do something different. Usually, what is keeping you from doing what you dream about is fear. Don't worry about your fear, it is a good thing! Fear keeps you grounded, but don't let it keep you from pursuing your dreams.
I have enjoyed working in several different areas during my working outside the home years, from being a hairdresser, to an accountant, to safety coordinator at a trucking company! I believe you learn new things at every different turn in your life. I know I certainly have! I enjoy the opportunity to learn new things, develop new friendships, and expand my horizons. Each new adventure can bring about challenges, problems, new realizations, and an abundance of knowledge!
I have many ideas in mind for working at home that I want to try at some point in time. You must get in touch with your inner creativity, find what interests you and how you want to spend your time. I believe that if you do what you really love, you will find success with that. Use your creativity and imagination, pick what interests you and decide how much time you are willing or able to spend.
When you are trying to work for yourself, there will be issues to worry about. If you are normally a two income family, you must recognize the risk of working for yourself. You may need to work a part time job for a while until you get your business up and running, and are bringing in a comfortable income. This may take a little while, but always keep your goals of working from home in focus.
Use your talents and hobbies to come up with something that you can do to bring in a good income. Thinks of the things that you love doing and enjoy. If you can do these things better than most others, perhaps you can do it for them and save them the time, while you make money!
My passions are candles, skin care and gift items. So I scoured the web, found some companies that were free to join and were marketers of these types of items, built me a website, and put these items on it! Many people create their own products, I just don't have that type of talent. If you do, go for it! Take pictures of your creations, build you a website and put your items on it and go from there.
I the proceeded to find every type of free advertising that I could possibly dream up. I used free classifieds, free safelists, and forums on the internet. I made up my own flyers on my computer and distributed them all over town, at the local college, stores, the tanning salon, everywhere I could possibly leave my flyer. I made invitation cards to hand out to people that I know inviting them to my website! Use your imagination, there are literally hundreds of ways to advertise your business or service at absolutely no cost to you. And realize that one difference between working outside the home and working at your home is you won't have the expenses of gas, eating meals out, and other overhead costs associated with working out in the public.
Put your mind to work and explore all the things that you love to do and enjoy doing. These will work well for you in starting your home business. Don't endeavor to do things you really don't enjoy doing just for the money, if you do you might as well be working for someone else!
Always remember, money isn't the only important part of being self-employed. Your enjoyment in what you are doing is just as big a part of your business! The more you love and enjoy what you are doing, the better and more prosperous your business venture will be!
And you have all heard of people who are talkers, and people who are doers. Alot of people can talk about what they are going to do really well, but if you want to be successful, don't talk, just do it! Be a doer! Take that first step to release your fears, get your ideas together and go with it! You can be successful, if you truly want to. Believe in yourself and put your fears aside.

Change Your Way of Thinking - It Will Change Your Life!
Do you allow your internal negativity to inhibit your dreams? You know that you can sabotage your dreams of working at home without even realizing that you are doing it.
You dream of working from your home and earning a huge income. Over time, you search for every e-book, training manual and any other information you can possibly find or purchase to help build yourself a profitable and successful business that allows you to work from your home and earn a great income.
You converse with your sponsor, spend hour upon hour studying your training materials and e-books learning the best ways to promote your business, place some ads occasionally, and try to improve the search engine optimization of your website.
You still wonder, "Why is this not working? What am I not doing, or doing wrong?"
You see thousands of opportunities on the web every day, and hop from one opportunity to the next, thinking one of them must be the magic money-maker. You lose more money, and you are getting desperate.
Your internal negativity is in control, causing you to believe that you cannot succeed in your home business. It is ruining your confidence in yourself, your ability to have a successful business, and as a result, you don't make much money. You are making yourself believe that you cannot be successful.
If you let your negativity take control, others on your team, your sponsor, your downline, can all sense this. You cannot come across as a leader and a success if you don't let go of your negative attitude. If you don't take control of it, it will destroy your dreams and visions of being a successful work at home entrepreneur!
You must have faith and confidence in yourself to be successful at anything in life, whether it is parenting, your job, your talents, etc. If you let your negative inner instincts take over, you will be a failure in whatever you attempt to accomplish.
Try to think about your negative thoughts and actions, and overcome them. Don't let those negative thoughts take over! Be aware of what is going on, and change your way of thinking to "I CAN do this!". You won't believe the difference in all areas of your life, including your success in a work at home business, if you change your way of thinking into positive actions. Believe in yourself, think positive thoughts and others will see it too. This will have a great impact on the success in your life!
Put positive thoughts and energy into your work and your life. You will reap many rewards!

Essentials for Success - Your Home Business
There are many things to consider when you start a home business. How much time is involved? How do I promote this business? How much money will I have to invest? Lots of things to think about.
Many people believe you can work for thirty minutes per day and make alot of money. In most cases, this is just not true. Having a truly successful home business requires at least 3-4 hours per day. It is a good idea to make a list of everything you would like to accomplish each day.
As you start your day, I think it is a good idea to ignore your e-mail until all of your work is done for your business that day. Reading e-mail can sometimes get you side tracked for hours at a time.
There are endless ways to promote your business. Online, you can participate in forums and advertise your service and products there. You can start your own blog and invite others to join and comment (also putting your ads there, of course), submit your ads to online newsletters and ezines, and of course, classified ads.
Other ways to advertise your business online are to put up your profile on My Space or submit a lens on Squidoo. Of course advertise your site or link on these also.
A great way to promote your business is by submitting articles. Write on any subject that you know alot about, and advertise your business in your article. Articles improve your SEO dramatically. I believe this is the best way to advertise your business.
As far as how much money you will have to invest, that varies greatly.
Some people are very efficient at advertising without ever spending a dime. Others advertise by doing Pay Per Clicks, solo ads in e-zines, Google adwords and other avenues. This just really depends on how you advertise and what tactics you use.
You can also advertise your business very effectively off-line! Send newsletters in the regular mail, hand them out to businesses in your area (your doctor, hairdresser, local store, etc). Leave your business card everywhere you go! Also be sure to put your link in your signature of every e-mail you send out. There is no limit to how you promote your services.
In summary, spend plenty of time researching and organizing your business. You can find plenty of tips and ideas in newsletters, forums, and blogs. As for how much you spend to advertise, that is totally up to you and your imagination!
Good luck in your venture. It will be fun and profitable if you conduct it properly.
Many people believe you can work for thirty minutes per day and make alot of money. In most cases, this is just not true. Having a truly successful home business requires at least 3-4 hours per day. It is a good idea to make a list of everything you would like to accomplish each day.
As you start your day, I think it is a good idea to ignore your e-mail until all of your work is done for your business that day. Reading e-mail can sometimes get you side tracked for hours at a time.
There are endless ways to promote your business. Online, you can participate in forums and advertise your service and products there. You can start your own blog and invite others to join and comment (also putting your ads there, of course), submit your ads to online newsletters and ezines, and of course, classified ads.

I Lucked Out at the Exasperation Point
When I began trying to work on-line, I never dreamed it would be so complicated and confusing. The more time I spent trying to find a decent way to make money at home, the more hype and scams I ran into. I'm sure this goes for everyone who has ever tried to make money on the internet.
After weeks of searching, I think I had probably joined 30 different programs trying to find a diamond in the rough. I had so much confusion going on with that many different programs, I had no idea what I was doing!
Finally, after months of trying to make something for myself on the web, I decided it was time to stop trying to promote and push all these different programs and start over. You can't do a good job on ANY program when you have too many directions you're trying to go in.
Luckily for me, I finally found a couple of opportunities that sounded simple, were free to join, and looked like genuine money making programs. I stopped everything else I was trying to work on, and put all my focus and energy into these programs.
If you want an honest and simple avenue into making money, One Step 4 Income and Pre-Launch 4 Income are the two programs that saved me from giving up. I have stuck with these wonderful programs, and I am now making a great income working on-line. If I can do it, anyone can. Don't give up on your dream!
