As 2005 dawns on earth I am quite thoughtful. Many persons started their business in 2004. Some succeeded and some left disappointed.
This New Year would bring many new home entrepreneurs to the net. How many of them would continue with what they started? How many would leave disappointed and disgruntled? How many of them would become a source of inspiration for others in waiting? How many would detest many others just because they failed.
I hear crackers bursting as people welcome New Year with full celebrations.
For those who have left, I feel sorry. They have left a road to wealth, richness and freedom from daily grind.
For those who are about to begin, I extend my welcome. 2005 is predicted to be the best year till date for home business. Equally for those who are making millions right now or just starting.
Whatever kind of business you are in, wherever you are from, home business will make you rich.
The reason many people do not start a home business is because they think they can’t do it. The reason why people leave it is because they expect instant results.
Every body knows good fruits take time to yield. It is same with your home business.
Whether you plan to sell your own products or join affiliate programmes, patience and perseverance is the name of the game. You must maintain your efforts. Give your business time to mature. Otherwise one falls into traps of frustration and frustrated man cannot think clearly.
Clarity of thought is must for success.
Without going into finer details these are prerequisites of home business. Each of that can be searched for and you would get enough details
•A product to sell (Create your own or sell other’s). Your own product can be either digital (e-book) or physical (book). Internet sells almost everything. With some efforts you can sell your product too.
If you do not have one you can join affiliate programmes of already selling products. It is simple. you sell their product and they give you commission on every sale. They have made a sale, they are happy.You make money you are happier.
•A website for your products. This is you web store to host the product you choose to sell. If people who visit your store choose to buy, you make money. Millions of people use internet everyday. You can imagine the scope.
•Hosting. This is space on the web land where your web site will be placed. These services are available both free of cost and at a price.Price varies as per service provider and what you are looking for. But if you aim for professional results use the paid ones.
•Promoting your site. This is to let people know that you have a store which sells those products. This is the difficult part but as you gather knowledge it becomes easier too. Various marketing strategies are available in plenty. You can use as per your budget.
Just a word of caution. Don’t spend your money on hypes promising instant results. There is nothing like that even on the net.
Once you start, start with full throttle. Do not hesitate for hesitation will hold you back. Learn the essentials as you go along. Gather knowledge and use it for expansion of your business.
I again welcome you decision to start home business. It will be a promising year, I promise.
Good luck.

Home Business Really Business
Is Home Business Really a Business
by: Preeti Srivastava
Home business, doesn’t it strikes you? But then another question hammers in your mind, whether it is a credible & lucrative business just like others? This is a never ending argument between Successful and Botched people who tried this business. Do you know that only 2 % people are successful in home business and 98% are failures. Can you think of who are those 2 percenters. successors?
Why majority people are botched? Let me discuss some core issues about home business.
What is the Home Business?
A business you can operate from your home in flexible hrs. You will be your own boss. There is only a small investment and above all you can work with World’s Top marketing companies. You can earn decent money for your efforts and knowledge.
Who is the right person to do it?
In my opinion everybody can do this business, who have a strong urge to do something with certain level of commitment and dedication. But one can generate a handsome income only after having accumulated a reasonable knowledge about marketing techniques, knowledge of your target audience/market and certainly latest promotional tools, because INTERNET is the fastest way to market your products and services. A good knowledge of email marketing, websites and search engines will be additives to your income & success. You must be innovative and creative while marketing your products and services. There are no set rules, every successful marketers have developed their own strategies. You will also learn when you decide not to quit but to persist your enthu to succeed.
Is it worth to invest money in home business?
YES! I say yes, if you are really serious about this business you have to invest some money wisely just like any other business. For eg. if you are planning to open a shop, you need space at a high traffic area, you need some hot selling products, you have to do some interior to make it attractive and last but not least you have to advertise your business to get customers. All the above requires wealth/capital to invest. Right! Same basic rule also applies in home business.
Why 98% peoples fails?
This is a naked and callous truth about home business that 98 % people are failures. The foremost reason is lack of knowledge, patience and earnestness. Most of the people joins Network marketing companies to earn quick money without doing anything. They endeavor it for few months and then give up. They never attempt to learn the right techniques and strategies, they only want some quick bucks. They don’t be bothered for their customers or downline. They are reluctant to solve the problems of their customers and downline, which results in dissatisfaction and frustration and then finally surrender. This ends the business in itself because ‘U’ ultimately will end up with no earning and get only a ruined business.
Who are the Successful 2 percenters?
These 2 per centers are the people who never quit and have faith in themselves. They learn from their mistakes and imbibe a lot more from apex of these businesses. They motivate themselves endlessly and help others in their downline to achieve the same. They are taking towering risk as they know that nothing comes without efforts. They strive to imitate and generate new ideas from their upline and other successful Marketers. They always welcome new ideas, believes in acceptance, always ready to take risk, and have a ‘NEVER SAY DIE’ Attitude. Believes strongly in “If someone can earn, then why can’t I?”
Why more and more people are going for it?
According to my study and observation, a lot more individuals are looking for home business opportunities and the only one main reason is ‘TIME’. Today maximum no. of populace is fed up of their working schedules, jobs and lifestyle. There is no time for the family, oneself and/or society. A hate feeling has developed for routine 9 to 6 hrs job as the maximum times goes in commutation (3-4 hrs. daily) from home to office and then office to home. After a long drenching day reached home fully exhausted and frustrated. So the Idea of home business always fascinates them. They would have always dreamt about it. That’s why every 45 second someone has joined the home business worldwide. It is an alarming figure and more and more people opt home business as substitute earning source. You know 90% of the working mothers don’t have more then 2 hrs daily for their kids. This is very provoking for both mothers and kids, their family bonding is at a risk. The only solution for this problem is owning home business where one can not only earn well but also have a suffice time for family and oneself.
In my opinion everybody has a right to live freely and must devote enough time with their family. So joining a home business is really good decision but mind you, you have to work smartly and not hard. Now days a lot of successful marketers are ready to share their secrets with you and you get all valuable information for just a few bucks. If you are really thinking about to start a home business consider some points before you join:
1) Check the company’s reputation, their promoters their products and existence of company and Track record.
2) Check if the company paying their affiliates timely.
3) Is the products are really good quality.
4) Is your upline supportive.
Once you verify the above points, go and join it and start working as this is your own business. If you are determined and ready to learn, you will definitely win.
Best of luck for your successful home business.
