Really Really Simple Home Business

As I was working on my internet marketing advertising, I came across a really interesting site.

It was an ad for a business, not just any business but a really simple home business.  That in itself, wasn't what caught my attention.  We see tons of businesses on the internet claiming to be simple home businesses, and they are far from being simple, and they can be downright costly if you're not careful.

But what caught my eye for this one was not so much as what was said, it was what was not said.  It was a simple call to action, see for yourself, try it.  What wasn't said, no promises of instant wealth, no huge unheard of income within a few days, no click your way to millions in 10-20 clicks.  Just a simple ad that asked that I give them 37 minutes of my time and see how I could start earning money just after watching.  No promise of instant wealth.  But they did claim I could start making money in as little as 37 minutes guaranteed.  Oh, oh, I thought to myself, "the old start making money in seconds" ploy.  But I got to admit, it did get me curious.

What could start me earning money within 37 minutes guaranteed.  Guaranteed??  "No way.", I said to myself.  But I got to admit the curiosity factor kicked in and they only asked for a few minutes of my time, so what the hay, I'll take a look.

If you just want to get on with it and visit the site without reading the rest of this post, that's fine.  You can visit the site by clicking this link.


One, when I clicked on the link, I was impressed with the site, it looked good, really good.  It was simple and easy to navigate.  Stated the features of the program right off the bat.  So I tried the 37 minutes.  I signed up.

What caused me to sign up, the logic behind it was so simple, I wished I had thought of it.  But before I go into more detail about the site, I want to go over the problems that most marketers get frustrated with, and which usually cause them to fail.

• No sign ups.  You're promoting a product and no one signs up for it.  You sign up for a social site and you upgrade with thoughts of those referral commissions. You've got your link out there and no one's giving you the time of day.  Can't make any money if no one signs up, right?  

• Little or no money to advertise.  That's a big one.  Most new marketers are entering the online market looking for ways to earn money, but they don't have any money to advertise.  If they do, they don't know where they should put their money to optimize their promotions.

• No plan of action, no focus.  Without a plan, you can find yourself jumping from program to program.  You'll be doing what I call the "spaghetti test".  Keep throwing it against the wall to see if it sticks, if it doesn't stick move to the next business. 

• You feel like you're all alone.  No help.  Your upline disappeared into limbo once you signed up or paid your money. 

I could go on but I'll only do these 4 for now.  Now, why I signed up for this business-- because it takes in account these 4 problem areas. It gives step by step instructions on what to do; it provides information on promoting your business based on the amount of money you can afford to spend; you see who your sponsor is with information on how to contact them.  You can report them if they don't help you.  You have a plan of action, simple steps you do everyday to ensure you will earn money.  They ask that you give yourself 90-days to build your business.  Sounded like a plan to me.

It promotes two main products while you are learning.  You may be familiar with these products but may not have seen them promoted in such a unique way.  That's what blew me away.  They were tied together so effortlessly that it made sense.  I don't want to give you the names just yet because, if you've tried them before and had no success, you may decide not to try this business.  AND THAT would be a big mistake.  I've already seen an increase in the first one, and I'd done miserably before with it.

As you grow, you move up to more advanced programs and promotions, when you're ready.  As you progress, more sections are opened and explained.  And the best part of all of this is, it's free to get started.  Of course one of the products does have a fee, but the beauty is you have 30 days to try it out, no money required or credit card, to see if this works for you.

And can you start earning within 37 minutes, yes you can.  You just have to do one simple and easy thing at least two times per day and they show you exactly how.  I'd tried this one income maker before without alot of success, but using their suggestions and doing what they ask, I have seen an increase which means money for me.

If you're curious about what 37 minutes could do for you, see for yourself.



Much success always

Are You Missing Affiliate Commissions?

Are you missing affiliate commissions?  Are you getting credit for all your hard work and effort?  You may not be.  Did you know there are people who will strip your affiliate id from your link, just so you don't get credit for the sale or people who will steal your link? 

That's why I like Clever Cloaker.  Innovative new software that will protect your affiliate link.

Benefits of Clever Cloaker: 

• allows you to make your own unique affiliate link

• makes it difficult for someone to steal or strip your affiliate id from the link

• allows you to track your links

• it's free.....yep.  It's free.

Not so down downside:  If you think about the commissions that pay you a 75% commission on sales that you may be losing because of stripped or stolen links, this is not such a big downside.

• you'll need your own domain name and webhost because it's self hosted.  This means you'll need to upload it to your own website.  It's not as difficult as it seems.  If you don't know how to do it, I can  suggest where to find video tutorials that will show you how to do this, and guess what they are free also.  You'll find this information below this post. They helped me immensely.  Now go cloak those links.

 If you don't have a dependable webhost in mind already, may I suggest hostgator, they are very good, and the one I use.  If you use hostgator, I've got a really good discount for you.  Just use coupon code:  greatwebhost1

If you don't know how to get a domain name or get webhosting, sign up for internet business tutorials, it's free.

Do You Like Giving Away Your Money?

Are you jumping from program to program, looking for that elusive one size fits all profitable business?

Do you only give something a few days to work and if you don't see any money in a short time, you chuck it and move on to the next big thing that's suppose to guarantee you huge amounts of cash?

Do you want to do very little work, learn absolutely nothing about internet marketing, and make alot of money...for someone else?

If this sounds like you, then why do you like giving your money away?  Is it a thrill to see your money emptying out of your paypal or bank accounts, with the fantasy that the more money you throw at it, the more money you hope and pray you will receive.  Do you think the more money you have to pay out, the better the system and a better chance to make money?

STOP IT!!!!!  There is no such animal as easy money or get rich quick for the average person just starting out. I know because I used to do the same things, I had the empty bank account to prove it.

Do you know why some people can show you those huge affiliate sales and commissions?  No?  And guess what, they won't tell you either.  They won't tell you that they spent their time building a list of thousands of subscribers who they could market to.  They won't tell you how they took the time to build their lists and provided good content, networked with other marketers, wrote blogs, wrote articles, worked more hours in a day every day than a regular job.  They won't tell you how many websites their opportunities appear on to build those large commissions.  All you see is the commissions, not the work that went into making it a reality.

LEARN...learn the things they don't or won't tell you.  Learn how to make your own lists, build your subscriber base.  Learn how to advertise, learn how to do keyword researches to make your promotions more visible and show higher in the search engines, learn where to go and what to do, so that you can be profitable in no matter what program or opportunity you select.  Learn how to set realistic goals for yourself and your business.

Making money online requires a lot of time, effort, patience and just plain hard work.  If it was easy, everyone would be making money.

Affiliate Marketing - Are You Sabotaging Your Efforts?

Image by Voyageur Solitaire-mladjenovic_n via Flickr

I recently wrote an article on Ezine Articles about this.  If you'd like to read it, click here

I like showing off my best work.  Wish I'd caught a few of those typos though, my bad.

There are many ways to sabotage your efforts in affiliate marketing; but the major ways I've noted are:

1) Lack of effective advertising.  Notice I didn't say "lack of advertising", I said "lack of effective advertising". Big  difference.  Do you know what advertising options are available to you?  Do you know how to use the ones you do know about effectively?

2) No Research.  Did you check out the product and the vendor?  Yes, I said the vendor.  Just as important as the product you will be promoting, and getting a nice commission I hope, is who you are selling it for.  Are they an established business?  Have they been around for a while?  See what other's are saying about the product and the company.  If people are saying the product is shoddy, not worth the money, do you think you'll get many sales.  If you can research, so can your potential referrals.  Remember they are not your customers, they are your referrals.  You are referring people to this company to hopefully purchase this product.  How is their customer support, do they respond to complaints or problems in a timely manner.  Huh?  Because the person who purchases can cancel just as easily as they purchased, sale --commission, cancel sale --no commission.  As simple as I could make it.

3) No Product Research.  You can't answer the most basic questions.  You just signed up because you thought you could make some money.  Well, that's the goal all of us want.  But you should be able to promote the product and answer any questions that may come your way.  You barely know what the product is much less know what it does.  How can you make a decent advertising campaign or ad if you can't answer a basic question.  Recently, an affiliate was promoting a product in one of the forums I frequent, and it looked interesting, so I decided to chat with him.  I  asked him a basic question, "How does it work?"  I got the internet equivalent of  "huh?" He said he'd get back to me, he had to find out.  Do you think he made a sale? or even a bookmark?  

4) Nothing that sets you apart from the crowd.  There are hundreds if not thousands of other affiliates competing for referrals.  What sets you apart?  Do you know how to set yourself apart from the crowd?  I'll give you an analogy.  There are ten salesmen standing at your door, they are all wearing brown suits with white shirts trying to sell you let's say Widget A.  Widget A is the best thing since the microwave, it'll make your life easier and better.  Salesman 1, holds out Widget A and says "This is Widget A, it's the best thing since the microwave, it'll make your life easier and better. Salesman 2, holds out Widget A and says "This is Widget A, it's the best thing since the microwave, it'll make your life easier and better.  Then the 3rd salesman steps up...you get the idea by now I hope.  By the time you get to salesman 7, you're pretty bored by now and you don't anticipate anything different, you're probably half listening or even looking for that matter.  But Salesman 7 throws up confetti, blows a whistle, and asks you how would you like to make your life easier? He proceeds to tell you how Widget A can help you (benefits to you).  He's making hand gestures, he's animated, he's got your attention.  Which one do you think would make the sale?  That's what landing pages, blogs, websites are...they are saleman 7.

5) Nobody Knows What You're Selling.  You're not focused.  Example, your site says Petunia's House of Glass, but you're selling dog food, gourmet-flavored popcorn, balloons and plastic figurines.  If this was an actual store, do you think your customers might turn around and go back out to see if they walked into the right store.  They were looking for products made of...glass.  Make sure your title reflects the product or ties into the product.

And one I didn't put in the article

6) It's Not All About You.  Think like a buyer and not like a seller.  What would motivate you to purchase a product?  Do you think, "Gee, I really want to buy this product because this person will make a commission?"  or do you think about how it would benefit you, how well it will enhance you, how much fun you could have with it.  There are two reasons why people buy,  they are not what you think.

Do You Know What You Need to Know for a Successful Online Business?

Are you new to the whole internet marketing thing and wondering what tools you need to be successful?


Whatever your reason for wanting to learn how to make money on line, for extra money to help with bills or just to supplement your income or to replace income loss due to unemployment, there are things you need to know how to do to be successful.


There are skills and tools you should know in order to establish your business.  Yes, your business.  No matter what you decide to implement online, it is your business whether it is affiliate marketing or creating and promoting your own product.  It is YOUR business.


If you think of it as something you do on the side or part-time, that's how you will treat it.  Something you can set to the side and/or only do it part of the time.  This attitude will reap you NOTHING.  But if you consider it your business, something you want to succeed, then you will put more effort into it, be more consistent in making it work, be more creative and attentive to who your customers are or will be.


You will agree that when you run a business, you should know what to do to make it successful.  You should know what skills and tools are needed to help make your business grow.  Know the terminology, know the methods so that you can make informed decisions on what to promote, how to promote and even better know what to stay away from.


 I'm a member of several marketing forums and I see alot of people who come to the forums not knowing the basic skills.  I can sympathize because a couple of years ago that was me.  Didn't have a clue where to start, what to do, how to do it.  I was a lamb waiting to be dressed and cooked.  I fell prey to every scam that promised to make me huge amounts of money for little effort or time, saying how easy it was, just put in my information.  Unfortunately, I didn't know what information they were talking about or what I had to do to put my information in to make the opportunity earn for me.


I'll share my own personal experience.   It was about two years ago and I wanted to earn some extra money.  I'd tried working a part-time job but the hours were too much for me, and I couldn't always get there on time because of the demands of my full-time job.  I needed something I could do that would allow me to be flexible with my hours.  Also, I needed something so I didn't have to worry about driving home late at night every night.  So something I could do from home would be ideal. 


I was just starting out and really wasn't aware of the tools available or what skills I would need to even begin an online business opportunity.  I didn't know I needed anything.  So I purchased resell rights to a site that seemed to have alot of potential,  the sales campaign was enticing, at least to me.  Silly me.  It cost me $77. The website had all the bells and whistles, and all I had to do was put in my information and I would be on my way to instant income. Again, silly me, I thought this meant putting my name on it.


What I didn't know was what I needed to know to make it my business opportunity.   I would have to know how to use html editor to edit the website to put in my information; that I would need to know how to add my own payment processor, that I would need to get my own domain name, get a host for it, and how to add my site to all this. What????


I didn't know what half this stuff meant, and I had paid this guy $77. So I contacted him about it. What he told me basically, he had to learn this stuff on his own, so do what I could to learn it. Was I steaming? You bet. What did I do?  I googled, I youtubed,  and if  bing had been around, I'd have binged it to learn what I needed to learn.


Fortunately, I found someone who walked me through the html editor, I spent over an hour on the phone.  Bless the angel who helped me. After two weeks, of intense searching and reading, I finally got the site up.Two weeks to set up something he told me would only take an hour or so.  But that's because I didn't know what I needed to know.  You may have found yourself in the same situation.


But because I had to do it as I found the information or had the person available, I didn't have a chance to really absorb it and I had nothing really tangible to review, except my own fast notes which at that time were pretty bad. Something that this person claimed could be done in less than an hour, took me well over two weeks.


People should know what skills and tools they will need to make money online, starting with the basics.


For example, learn how to get a domain name, how to choose a domain name that's suitable for your business. You wouldn't want to pick a name for example, BunnySpace.com, and the business is about fly fishing.


Do you know how to create a website, how to get a domain name, how to get webhosting,  or how to get traffic to your site?  Then click here for more information, and much more.

3 Work At Home Businesses - Making Money Online

I like to think of them as training wheels for new marketers. You have a chance earn as you learn, and you don't have to sit in a classroom, you go at your own pace, no pressure.

Making money online just got easier, at least with the help of these three (3) businesses.

Making money online can be downright confusing and frustrating to new internet marketers.

What programs can you trust?
Which ones have a proven track record of producing what they promise?
Are they user-friendly?
When I need help will someone be there to help me?

These are just some of the questions you should be asking yourself when you are looking at a program.

Finding ways to make money online can be difficult, but not impossible. We know it's not impossible because we see it done every day. There are people making decent incomes online every day. What makes them different from you? Nothing.

If you have the drive and the determination, you can make money online as well. They've taken the time to learn the skills and tools they need to work at their business.

Let's not make a mistake, you are creating a business, whether it is for making some extra pocket money or being able to quit your job, you are building a business. It takes the same dedication and persistence as any other job. There are things you need to learn in order to build a business.

There's no harm in earning some cash while you are learning but you need to pick the right program or programs to do it. Pick programs that will help you learn the tools you need and how to use them, and can put them into action within a short amount of time, so that you can start making money on the internet. When you look at a program, look at it for the long haul.

I'll get off my soapbox now.
