Finding Creative Ways To Make Money

June 22nd, 2009 James 1 comment

There are many creative ways to make money, lets face it, however the question you need to ask is “How many actually work”? Since starting our own work from home business in 1998 we have been exposed to many so called opportunities that I have given up counting. We have lost tens of thousands of dollars on programs and systems that have promised the world and delivered nothing except a smaller bank balance.

I am not sure if you are like me or not, but I have had enough of doing all these different thigns and getting no where. Spending money and tiime in the hope that it would work but nothing does.

This is the reason for this article. It is ny hope that you will take this information and put some action behind it. I am going to show you how you can think of your own creative ways to make money, rather then give you ways. You see, if I am the one giving you the ways to make money then you can almost guarantee that someone else is already doing it, more then likely better then you could. We are going to take you through how you can actually find out what you can do simply and easily to get started making money from home in a way that feels good to you.

We have helped tens of thousands of people around the world get started in business for themeselves with amazing results. It does not matter what country they are in, they can do what we do.

So let me give you some guidlines to work with. Remember these are just guidlines, they are meant to help you get started and head in the right direction.

I am going to give you my preference at the bottom as I believe it is the most powerful and gets very big, long term results.

How do you come up with creative ways to make money?
1. Sit back and ask yourself WHY are you wanting to make more money? I get you to think about this question first because when you actually know what your burning desire is, you will want to keep going even when times are difficult in your business. It does not matter how creative you are in your ways to make money, you will still go through times when you will want to quit and throw in the towel. Knowong why yo are doing something will make you think twice about stopping.

2. Look at what it is you are good at? Too many people go off and do something they have never done before or no skill in doing it. Here are some questions you can ask yourself to help you asertain what you are good at:
a. Do you like people?
b. Do you like using computers?
c. What did you like most about your last job or business?
d. What did like Least about your last job or business?
e. If there was one job you ever had that you actually felt like this was the best what was it and why did you feel that way?
f. What education have you had?

So now grab a sheet of paper and divide it into two columns. Label the first colume things I like the second colume things I dont like and start filling in the colums. Next put a tick next to the things in both colums that you actually do well whether you liike them or not.

Now ask yourself these questions.
Use this information now and start a new sheet of paper and start working on different ideas that you have around the things that you like and are good at. Get on google and start typing those things in as it may start your brain thinking about what else is out there around that topic or subject.
Like I said at the start there are plenty of creative ways for you to make money. You just need a place to start.

We show people how to start in business for themselves from home. Showing them how to use the skills and talents they have and make money doing what we do. It is fun and rewarding.

I know the information we have given you around creative ways to make money may not give you all the answers, NOTHING WILL. You have to search out yourself what it is that will drive you, what it is that gives you passion and excitement.

We can help you if you like

Getting Ready For A Work From Home Online Opportunity

June 18th, 2009 James No comments

Work From Home Online Opportunity

What is the latest in the Work From Home Online Opportunity are? Well let’s look at what is currently happening on the net at the moment.

As the economy continues to do weird things and the “Economic Gurus” seem to contradict each other more and more, people are looking for ways to build businesses from home. I can’t blame them. There has never been a better reason for people to for ways to work from home then right now. The world has changed and I believe forever.

It is believed or should I say “presumed” that working from home online is easy money…Let me tell you that the better you become and the more time you spend on developing your skills the more money you will make, but it is FAR from being guaranteed…

A good work from home online opportunity still requires you to become a master, it requires you to put the time in and develop the talents to succeed.

It would seem that the best way to go is to have you own work from home online opportunity. But what should you be looking for?

Let me give you a list of things that we recommend you get proficient in if you are considering venturing into the work from home online business arena, these are just a few, however if you focus on them you will get very powerful results:

1. Learn to copywrite: The best online marketers know how to copywrite. They attend seminars, purchase material and practice, practice practice.
2. Learn some basics on web development or align yourself with someone that can help you: You are going to want to be able to build capture pages and follow up pages.
3. Have a good auto responder (this is where the money is) the bigger your list the more opportunity you have to make money from that list. However you want to be able to market to this list easily and effectively. And auto responder will allow you to do this. We have a recommendation on our website of who we use and recommend.
4. Find out about “Keyword”: these are the magical words people type into google, yahoo and msn. They are the words you want to target in your marketing. Beware though. Even though you know a keyword gets searched regualry does not mean it will be profitable.
5. Get the right products and support. This will be critical to how much money you make and what results you get. Make sure the product has a guarantee and that is good value but even more than that. Make sure it works.

To find the right product and market for you there is one fundamental rule:

“Supply And Demand”

The more demand and the less the supply, the better opportunity you will have to make your business work.

But is this always true when it comes to online marketing?
No, I can categorically say that this is not true for all cases. There are many companies out there that get their marketing wrong, they don;’t employ the right people and the results show. You can have products that have no competition at all but not getting any where near the results they should because they have been positioned incorrectly and so no one actually finds them.

If you can find a company and a product like this you could be on a real winner, as competition is low but opportunity is high for you to be the one that stands out in the crowd.

Then you get the companies that have a lot of competition for their product but still no one in their industry at all is promoting well. Again this is another huge opportunity. Finding people that actually know what they are talking about is hard. Finding people that are doing it themselves from practical experience rather then theory is even harder again. So here you could find yourself marketing a product with a good name that people actually want to buy, however they can’t find it…You could be the one that helps them find it.

Then lastly you may find the company that has it all working well, they have their marketing right, their people are trained and they are getting results. This type of company is good to be involved in because you can learn from them. They help you become better at what it is you are wanting to do and market.

As you can see, depending what way you want to look at it, you can see opportunities. You can find the right Work from home online opportunity, However be careful where you end up.

In my experience I have found that not all work from home online opportunities are the same and they don’t all pay, or should I say that not all entrepreneurs are the same and they don’t all get paid the same amount of money. The one’s that put in the effort and become a student. The ones that are prepared to spend the money to learn the skills and develop the talents are always going to be the ones that get the results.

You see, you could have a product that has more competition then you can poke a stick at, but when you look at the marketers, the people in charge of moving the product, you are left wondering how they ever made a dime.

What you will find is that you will be the one that is able to make a difference when it comes to the work from home online opportunity and what type of results you receive.

You can make money working from home, LOTS of money, just choose carefully and get the right training and support. We are committed to you and to providing you with that support.

Make sure you subscribe to our 7 day bootcamp on building a business online and offline. It is the most comprehensive video training on the net today.

How to Beat the Deception of the Work From Home Business Industry…

June 17th, 2009 James No comments

Have you been deceived by Work From Home Businesses or is it the banks that have lied to you?
I know that headline is pretty hard however I think now is not the time to be mixing words.

I speak to people every day who have been trapped into thinking that the only way to build a retirement portfolio is to give all their money away to banks and financial institutions in the hope that they will look after their hard earned money and not lose it…

Well in the last week we have seen that that is not correct. All of the Governments and Banks best intentions have led to one of the worst financial melt downs in history.

Do I believe the economy will come back from this ABSOLUTELY YES…but there will be remifications. Peoples Retirement plans will have changed which means they will have to work longer and in some cases harder to get back to where they were.

What does this mean to YOU…
Well it means a very powerful opportunity has just been given to you to start looking at the best work from home businesses or work from home business opportunities.
In a time where there is worldwide uncertainty you have the chance to bring hope and choices, not only for yourself but many other people around the globe as well.

What are these work from home businesses and work from home opportunities?
Many times people look at problems happening around them and only see issues and not solutions.
Now because you are one of those few people that go looking for solutions I know which one you are.

At a time when petrol/gas prices are at an all time high and energy prices as a whole continue to increase. Not to mention that we can no longer trust the banking institutions or our governments.

Now is the time to be looking seriously at having your own work from home business and quickly

WHY?…
Well when you have your own work from home businesses you are in control of your future not someone else. You get paid what you are worth and you know that if you need more money than all you have to do is increase your skills and start marketing.
Home Based Businesses in times of uncertainty actually grow. WHY? Well it is because the world starts looking for solutions to their problems and they don’t trust the norm any more.

You are not the NORM when you own your own business.

A good friend once told me…
That I should not allow others to determine how my wealth would grow…Let me tell you I wish I had of got that bit of truth earlier…he said that it is foolish putting your wealth (however much it may be) in the hands of someone else, especially if you don’t know what they are doing with it.
You see in this type of economy the people that are establishing their own work from home businesses and invest in their own personal development will be the ones that capitalise and profit no matter what the financial woes of the world are.

So the message is pretty clear…
Don’t sit back, take control of your financial future today…
Get into a work from home business for yourself NOW, get trained & build your own financial security.

God Bless

What is the best work at home business?

June 15th, 2009 James 4 comments

One of the most common questions coming to us has been “what is the best work at home business” or “how do I find the best work at home business?”

Firstly let me say I do believe that there is just one. I believe that there are many different work from home business opportunities out there for you to choose from. It will be up to you to choose the one that is right for you. You will be the one that decides to make a go of it or to stay in the same situation you are in today.

The people I work with every day have made a decision that they are changing their future and getting out of the rat race. No matter what opportunity you choose you are going to find good and bad points. Make a decision now that no matter what happens you will choose to look for the good and see the glass as half full rather than half empty. This will help you to see through the clouds of confusion that will come and make decisions that will support your future instead of hampering it.

Below you will find information that will help you make the right choices on finding the best work at home business opportunity for you. Like I said though, there are many you can choose from and I do not make any guarantee that you find the best one the first time. I think I have found the best one for me, you will have to do the same work I have done to get the same result.

What to look for when searching for the best work at home business?

  • Stability: How long have they been in action and what is their track record?
  • Product Line: Is it something that interests you?
  • Proprietary product line: How much competition do they have?
  • Company Directors: Are they people that care about others or do they only care about the bottom line?
  • History: What has been their history with support and growth?
  • Market: Who would want their products, is it a growing market or a shrinking one?
  • What is the training and support: Will they look after you and help you as an individual?

If Looking At Network Marketing What Questions Do You Ask The Associate?

  • What is the team’s success record: Do they have a history of developing major income earners and helping people achieve their dreams?
  • How do they mentor and train their associates: What support systems do they have for your personal and business development?
  • Is the leader actively building the business or are they in retirement mode: For you to find the best work at home business the support you will receive from the top people will be crucial… YOU DO NOT want to be with someone that is in retirement mode..
  • Can you make money quickly: The best work at home businesses will allow you to make money quickly and easily? You don’t want to have to wait a long time to make money. We help people to make thousands in their first 90 days. (obviously no guarantees but many do)
  • How can you market: Can you market both online and offline. How are you going to build your business?

Questions to ask yourself. (Remember that the best work at home businesses are generally the best because you make them that way)

  • Do you get along with the person you are speaking to: If you don’t why are you talking to them. Find someone else, don’t let this stop you.
  • Are they someone you could build a long term business relationship with? You are going to be working together for a long time. Make the right choice.
  • Do you feel comfortable – what is your gut telling you? Generally you will ALWAYS know what is the right choice for you before you ever make a move.
  • Would you use or take their products? If not you will find it hard to convey any type of confidence.
  • Are you ready to start a business and make money? Sometimes it is not the right time for you. If it is great but if it is not then don’t waste your time or anyone else’s.

Finding the best work at home business opportunity takes time and sometimes you wont know until you are actually in it and working away.

Big income earners don’t take a long time to make choices. They go with their gut most of the time and then work on making it all happen. You will more than likely be in the same situation.

Remember you will be the one that makes your business the best work at home business so go for it.

Below is a video labeled “How to find the best work at home business”. We put it together and cover a little more on what you should be looking for.

In my book Dual Networking I cover IN DEPTH what you should do for yourself in business. Make sure you grab your copy.

Learn How To Stop The No. 1 Killer Of Work From Home Businesses – Deception

June 15th, 2009 James No comments

With over 10 years experience in this industry and after helping tens of thousands of people get started in business for themselves I still get amazed at the deception that is still happening.

It breaks my heart to see good people being taken for a ride as they get guided down the path of lies and false promises.

They are like an animal that has the headlights of a semi trailer baring down on them, the animal is bedazzled by the bright and unusual sight until…BANG…it is too late and the poor animal lies injured or worse on the side of the road.

Unfortunately this happens to too many people in this amazing industry. You drive along the road in any direction of this industry and you will see the carnage of miss informed and under trained people who have had their hearts broken because their dreams that they believe could one day become reality have all of a sudden been dashed…

What am I talking about? It is something that has held people back from enjoying the fullness of this industry. You will know it as soon as I say it. You just have to go on the internet and read the blogs, posts and new websites that are being promoted in the “Sponsored Links” area on google.

They promise you the world but deliver very little.

They say words like “easy money” and “easy business”… Today we are going to help you not get deceived by other people or by your own thoughts that may or may not be true. We want you to succeed in your work from home business

The deception is… …that you can start a work from home business and have to invest nothing

This is a lie. Sure there may be varying degrees of the amount of money you have to invest, however, for you to be successful and earn a SERIOUS income, I am not talking about a few hundred dollars or even a couple of thousand dollars per month, I am talking about $5,000 per month or more, you will have to invest into your work from home business and yourself. The thing to remember, when you invest into your business is you are actually investing into yourself and your dreams.

Now I know some of you may be thinking “I don’t have a lot of money”, that’s OK I just want you to realise that nothing is free and for you to have a realistic view of business.

Let me clarify something… When I got started working from home, the thing that attracted me was that I could earn a high income with a very small outlay, did you notice that I said very small not FREE. When I hear people promoting FREE work from home businesses I ask myself “whats the catch…” Lets face it, we all know it’s true, you need to invest money into a business to make money from that business. Now that could be for products, (which it was for my case) or it could be for training, computers, resources etc etc etc…

For less then $1500 I was able to establish a business for my self. I could work from home with out the pressure of getting a huge loan from the bank and having to make sure there was enough money coming in each week to pay the staff BEFORE I paid myself, if you already own a business you know what I am talking about.

People often ask me, “when should I leave my job?”, my answer is always the same, unless you absolutely have to, DON’T…Why would you give up extra income, but if you do have to leave that job then don’t do it until you are earning at least DOUBLE what your full time job is paying you and you want to see that type of money coming in for at least 3 – 6 months continuously before making that decision.

Anyway the moral to this story is: Don’t fall for the trap and believe the deciept that is out there that you can get started in business and earn a serious income without investing SOMETHING…Be prepared to invest not only your time but also you finances

So from me, if you are serious about having a home based business then treat it serious and be prepared to invest in it, yourself and your future. Don’t play around with it, nothing great was ever achieved by people who treated things as a hobby, commitment is required.

If we can help you with anything or if you are looking for a business for yourself and you think we may have what you are looking for then reply to this email and we will see if we can help you.

God Bless you and we pray for your future

The Blueprint for Business Development and Profitability

The Blueprint for Business Development and Profitability

Working From Home And Social Networking

June 15th, 2009 James No comments

No matter what industry you are in and what product you are selling, the internet has become the tool to master or at least include into your world domination plans.

In all business expansion, whether you are just getting started or you have a well established business you are going to rely on marketing and advertising at one stage. How well you do will depend on how good you are with more different factors than I care to mention.

Many new business owners tend to throw good money after bad. Wasting the little resources they have in the hope that they will get lucky and hit the big time. This happens very rarely, it is the person that does their research and monitors their spending activities that will be the true winner.

Yes it is true that you can spend too much time analyzing a too little time doing but the same is also true when you reverse this. You can spend too much time doing and not enough time analysing.

When I first got started I took the spatter gun approach. I would aim in the middle of the crowd from a mile a way and hope that I hit something. More often than not I missed and ended up wasting time, effort, money and emotional energy.

All of which I did not have much of to waste.

Social Networking is fast becoming the way of smart marketers. It allows you as a business owner to build relationships quickly with people from all walks of life all over the world with no respect for borders. I love it.

My background before getting involved in Internet Marketing was in the corporate field. Everything was “Belly to Belly, Face to Face” relationships had to be built over coffee, functions and long meetings. It was expensive, time consuming and required you to be on your toes all the time. We started to implement the technology into what we were doing and found that our results started to come easier and quicker. So much so that we started to find it hard to keep up. We implemented a simple email campaign that built a relationship with the clients before we ever spoke. This was back in2001 and now we have done something similar for our clients that is seeing even bigger results again. It is allowing us to build and grow our multi million dollar business from home and make an ever increasing cash flow while having time for ourselves and freedom to do what we want when we want.

That little bit of technology has changed our business forever and it is called an autoresponder. Today I am going to take you through how you can use that same technology to build your business on the back of a Social Networking phenomenon.

So lets get started in understanding Social Networking, but first let me ask you some questions.

So how does all this fit into Social Media Marketing?
Well firstly you need to know and understand that the business you are in is constantly changing and the ways that are becoming open to you continue to grow. The internet has become the most cost effective was to market and any person wanting a business needs to start to build their understanding of technology and how it can help them become successful.
There is a lot of ways to advertise on the internet however they all cost money and sometimes they will cost you a fortune. You can into something like Google Adwords after reading someones article and think that you just have to put up an ad direct them to your site and you will make a fortune, this is far from the truth. If you dont get your keywords right and your ad and your landing page and your offer etc etc etc you could have wasted more than you had planned for. Social Networking is a little more gracious than that. It allows you to put time and effort in without the money. Social Networking Sites are free. They welcome you as an individual to come and build relationships with any person you want to at no charge.

You can’t do this with adwords or any other type of paid media. Does it take time? YES, you have to be patient and be prepared for the long road ahead. As you build the relationships and start to your message out there you will find “Evangelists” people who want others to know about what you are saying and they will go to work on your behalf. As your list of followers and friends grow so do the evangelists, the ones that just can’t stop talking about you and the value that you bring to them and their business. You become the person that is the answer, the guru….This is what you are working on. Becoming the guru.

How serious are you about getting long term profitable results for your business?
Social Networking is not for the short sighted person. It is only for the person who has a long time view. Remember that this type of marketing takes time. Be prepared to take time out each day to build the relationships and bring value to the communities you are involved in.
How serious you are about success in your business will show through by your commitment to the people you interact with. Be prepared to answer their questions and become the mentor they have been looking for. Obviously you better make sure you do know what you are talking about because if you don’t they will spread the word and your name will become mud.
The internet is harsh like this. Information can spread faster then the swine flue so you better be building your knowledge constantly. Subscribe to newsletters, blogs and feeds and start to claw through the information. Find what is relevant and pass that information on.
Remember though, time is the key when it comes to building with Social Media especially if you are just getting started. You hear about those people who just sign up to twitter and with in a month they have thousands of followers. Generally these people already had a large following on their email list or actually bought the following. For the rest of us, it takes time.

Are you good with people?
As with any business, your success will be reliant on how you are with people. Do you take the time to get to know them or do you hope that they are just interested in getting to know you. Let me help you here.
If you are only interested in people getting to know you your relationships will end very quickly because it is all about you. Having the ability for you to ask questions of your followers and subscribers will become imperative and allow you to specifically market to peoples interests and needs. Smart marketers are always more interested in their prospects than they are in their own thoughts. When you can get the information on what your clients and prospects are looking for you will be able to put together tools and resources that will help them in their marketing pursuits.

Questions really are the answers to your success with Social Networking. Ask the people you are speaking to what it is they are interested in and what it is they are looking for. Get them to trust you and what you are offering.
Become their friend…

Do you have patience?
Some of you reading this are not really going to be interested in this part. As I get older I get to see how important patience really is. The more patient you become the bigger the results. Not everything has to be done immediately. Some of my biggest successes have come after years of waiting. Building Dual Networking has taken 10 years and we are still building.
BE PATIENT…Social Networking takes time. It takes time to build your list of QUALITY FOLLOWERS not just junkies…Don’t rush it. Yes the more time you put into the process the quicker and bigger the results.

Do you have cash to spare?
If you don’t have too much spare cash than you need to be doing Social Networking because it is FREE. Yes you should be buying as many training resources as you can to learn what is needed but all in all your marketing is free. Don’t miss that opportunity.

Keep an eye out for our in depth training that will be coming soon on Social Networking. We will be taking you through the hype and getting you to the best of the best.
