Hi again everyone,

Ok, so you’ve decided to start your own business online, picked the program and have been going through the training.  Notice anything? Every so often you are going to be advised to join one program or another or buy certain software to help you succeed, this is where problems can start, especially if you are on a tight budget .  The best way to budget for your online business is to decide what you really must have to get started.

The program you decide on should be free to join or low cost, all the best programs are. After that you are going to need a web host, a domain name and an autoresponder. A good web host will let you register your domain name with them, which makes athings a lot simpler in the long run.

By using an autoresponder you will have the added bonus of creating an email list which will help convert your website visitors into subscribers.  Once you have subscribers to your email list you will then be able to convert your subscribers into paying customers.

That’s it! A web host, domain name and an autoresponder are the only things you are going to need to pay for to start with. How many offline businesses can you set up for less than $50 a month?

Once you have these you can build your website..you can download free templates if you need to and edit them with a free HTML editor , and start to promote your business using blogs (free), writing articles (free), using social networking sites (free) and traffic exchanges (free).

I’m off on holiday for ten days today but will go into more detail about all the above when I get back..I’m going to try to keep away from computers and just rest and relax..hmm, we’ll see…

Until then,

Take care,

Carol

Start Your Own Home Based Business

Posted on August 25th, 2008 in Affiliate Opportunities, Business Opportunities, Getting Started, Home Business Ideas by Carol Aston

 

Hi everbody, thanks for visiting and all your comments, keep ‘em coming!

If you’ve decided that, like me, you want to start your own home based business but are still unsure of which way to do it then I suggest you start thinking about what you enjoy doing. What are your interests and hobbies? To be successful on the Internet you are going to have to enjoy what you are doing as you are going to have to work hard at getting your business off the ground and it won’t happen overnight.

Whatever it is you enjoy doing there are plenty of opportunities and programs online that will help you start your own home based business. This is why affiliate marketing is such a great way to get started in the first place. All the best affiliate programs have training included and will help you understand how to set up your business and then promote it successfully so that you can start earning money from it.

First you are going to have to decide which opportunity or program is the best one for you to start your own home based business with and then follow the training program provided with it, take your time, set a budget for yourself (and stick to it!) and decide how many hours a week you can devote to your business. If you already have a full time job then dont say 20 hours a week when you know this is going to be impossible.  Most of the successful people online started off doing what they are doing on a part-time basis.

Be realistic when planning  your business, set yourself goals, make ‘to do’ lists and cross things off when you do them, it gives you a great sense of achievement as you do this. Above all remember that when you start your own home based business,  you are starting a new business, from scratch, and like any new business it is going to take time and lot of hard work to make it succesful.

Next time I will tell you the best ways to budget for your business, you may be surprised to learn how little it will cost you to start your own home based business on the Internet,

Until then,

Take care,

Carol

How my Mentors Make a Living Online

Hi everyone, ok, here’s the exciting news I mentioned in my last post!

As a member of the PIPS Power Group I have received more help with my online business than I ever dreamed possible, I told you about just a few of the benefits a couple of days ago.

All 6 of the mentors always go that extra mile to help all of us in any way they can, and now they have truly outdone themselves! They’ve written a book called the PIPS Power Group Book about how they got where they are today, yep you read that right, I now know how my mentors make a living online!

It’s all in there,  their history, their success stories, their mistakes (and how to avoid them), their favourite tools and products (and how to use them), their daily routines, tips, advice and loads, loads more! The story of how my mentors make a living online has been a great help to me already and it’s only just been released and I know I’m going to refer to it again and again and whenever I need to.

Also included in the book are testimonials from current members of the PIPS Power Group (mines on page 63) which will give you a great insight into how the mentors have helped us all with our online businesses.

It really is brilliant and a MUST read for anyone who is serious about making a living on the Internet. And the best news of all?.. It’s FREE, it won’t cost you a penny. If you want to know how my mentors make living online (and a very good one!) then I advise you to go and download the PIPS Power Group Book now!

Oh I almost forgot, not only is it free, it’s also rebrandable, so that you can use to it build your own list..didn’t I tell you they were brilliant!

Happy reading,

Until next time,

Carol
