Write It And Make Your Money!

These days, many companies do campaigns about their product online by publishing websites. They know well that the internet will spread out the information about their ( physical ) products throughout the world and therefore raise the sale potential. I absolutely believe, this online campaign is more effective and make much more money to the company.

You can make money by doing something online too.
This, or this, article tells us that we can make money by simply writing information and selling it online.

So, how shall we do it? Here’s a simple step to start:

1. First, find the subject you’d like to write. Think about something you are good at. None? Then try with something you like very much. Your hobbies, maybe. Or, otherwise, why don’t you try to write something YOU DON’T LIKE AT ALL? In short words, you almost could write ANYTHING to make money online. For example, you really HATE SMOKING and it’ll become your subject.

2. Pour your mind about smoking so it really shows how you feel about it. Just write it honestly. If you hate it, say you hate it! At this step, your aim is to make a content that will interest people to read it because it provides a true information they search for. Use the word editor in your computer and save it.

3. Read your writing again. Find some places in your article that might be able to detail or develop. Let’s say you find that it’s good to add information about toxic substances contained in cigarette and how hard it will risk your life.

4. So now you have 2 more subjects about smoking you can write. They are cigarette’s toxic and the bad risk of smoking. To enrich your thoughts, read some books or do searching on internet about related topics. Summarize and combine them into new information of yours, and write it. Avoid writing with zero-knowledge. Remember that you are writing something useful for other people.

5. Repeat step number 2 to 4. You will have your topic described from one simple idea into a well-detailed information. Don’t make your writing out of your main topic. Keep it in focus. To make it easier to understand, it’s better to arrange your writing into several chapters.

6. Convert your writing which is previously saved in word format like .doc to a PDF file. This conversion will make your writing into an e-Book and become downloadable. Here, you have finished your own information product and ready to sell.

7. The last step is advertise your self and your ebook. You can harness hundreds of forums and groups on the internet. Be an active member and promote your ebook at the right time. Just be patient and keep a hard work. It will work!

Selling ebook is not the only one way to make money online. There is another way. BLOGGING.

Work at Home -- Why Do People Fail?

Graham Chapman wrote this article and published it in Article City. You might find it’s interesting when you run your business at home.

The world of the business opportunity is growing at an ever-increasing rate. Fuelled by the modern desire to want more from life, especially wealth and freedom, people are seeking ways to escape from their corporate environment, their job, and employed status. The rewards are huge if successful; once a winning formula is discovered, it can be used to shape a whole lifetime. All of a sudden, choice and freedom are available. Having such an independent lifestyle can (and usually does) erase much of the stress and depression that exists in the lives of many people nowadays.

Those seeking this Holy Grail can spend a lot of money – often thousands – on ideas, or they can spend an inordinate amount of time devising their own plans.

Yet, it is a strange fact that very few of us who buy, or are given, or invent a business opportunity succeed.

Why is this?

Very often, of course, it is the actual business opportunity or plan that is used. Some exist simply to line the pockets of the writers – not the readers. However, there are countless reliable, proven ways to build a very profitable business that can be run from home. Some people will run with an idea and become very successful and yet someone else, following the same plan, will not. Can the reasons for this be dependent solely on intelligence, experience, gender, race or genes? Surprisingly, no. What usually separates the winners from the losers is attitude and, in particular, the ability, or will, to act. The winners possess fearlessness or, at least, a resistance to the effects of the fear of failure.

The losers, very often manifest this fear into what is known as analysis paralysis: a tendency to keep trying to make a plan exactly right before executing (if we don’t try then we can’t fail). This is obviously a paradox; the very state of inaction produces the failure.

If any blame for ineffectiveness can be levelled at a plan in question, it is in the almost universal lack of emphasis on the importance to act. Action produces results, and from these results we can act again, thereby moving ever close to our destination.

So, if we want to progress with our chosen idea, then it helps to keep in mind that well-known advertising slogan: Just Do It!

7 Good Attitudes You Need To Work At Home

Everybody wants to make a good money for his/her family. When you are planning to have a home-based business to make money with, then you need some good attitudes to get to your success.

Here is the list.


1. First of all, you must fill your thoughts with the right mindset that convinces you that you can be successful by working at home. Always make this mindset growing better.

2. If you think this home-based business is very easy, then you should change your mind. That is not absolutely right. One thing for sure is it needs a hard work to get to golden goal.

3. Arrange your time and your money. Don’t get your self in the middle way between working at home and taking care of you children. Be professional in your own business.

4. Allow your instincts to take part when checking out a new opportunity. Then do some research. Once you find your instincts empowered by the research’s result, then you’re in the right path to go ahead.

5. Be straight and clear with your budget. You are investing mostly your time and effort. So don’t invest your money in any online business that requires you to pay large money first. Your business does need your money to invest. But a big money in advance? No, thanks…

6. You are your business. If you were red, then your business will become red. Honestly showing your self to your customers is a must. The more honest you are, the more unique you become. People need to want you for who you are and what you can achieve with what you have inside.

7. When your business becomes bigger and bigger, don’t be afraid to share your knowledge with other people who need it. Helping them will also mean helping your self. It would create a social support to your business.

You have something else? Please let us know….

4 Opportunities To Work At Home With Internet

Some of you may have chosen to work at home running a small business that isn't computer or Internet-related. That's great! You have been able to translate your skills into a market niche that is providing you a steady income. With the Internet, people are learning to make money - even while they sleep - and finding a healthy return on their investments.

The Internet has redefined what work at home really means. Not only can we conduct simple e-commerce, but we can also profit from an area that grows virtually everyday - simply surfing the Web. The Web grows by hundreds of thousands, if not millions of pages per day - so why not take advantage of a growing marketplace?

So, what are some of the main Internet work at home opportunities? We'll take a quick look at four of the primary areas people like yourself are making money with Internet work at home opportunities:

1. E-books / White papers
Type in a subject on the search engine and you are probably going to find someone who has written an e-book or white paper on the topic. Buyers build their work from business by selling these e-books and white papers around the clock to people all over the world. It is as simple as having a good book written, marketing it on the Internet with a dedicated sales page, and making the sales. This can be a great passive work at home opportunity for someone who finds the right niche at the right time.


2. Affiliate Marketing
Websites that provide products and services to people are constantly on the lookout for people who want to help direct traffic to their products. Many successful work at home entrepreneurs have made a steady income by acting at the traffic funnel to these e-commerce sites. Each time a person clicks through your site and then purchases a product from the parent site - you collect a percentage of that sale!


3. Surveys
If you have even a couple of extra hours each day, you can carve out a great work at home side income by doing surveys and participating in focus groups that work through the Internet. The pay structure varies from site to site, but many survey sites boast up to $75 for some of their surveys. If you can do 4 per month, you've added $300 to your income.


4. Telecommuting
If you aren't entirely Internet savvy, another way to go in the work at home world is to telecommute. This is essentially doing data processing work from the comfort of your own computer. This can be a great way for parents looking after children to make extra money while caring for the kids. It could range from medical billing to accounting information for companies large and small - and because of the Internet, the information is easily transferable and you can often access company sites from your home computer.


Never has it been easier to work from home using your computer and the Internet. The opportunities are literally endless. Aside from direct marketing opportunities on the Internet, you can also use it as a constant billboard for a different product or service that you might be able to provide. Maybe you build birdhouse, or you are a certified family counselor that can serve clients from your home.

The Internet is an ongoing information source that we can take advantage of for our work at home business. Take the time to learn how it can help you, and instantly you will see the power it has to increase the profit from your work at home business.

Should You Quit Your Daily Job?

Do you have a daily good job today and get paid well every month? Thank God if you do. We know that so much people in this world find their selves chained in unemployment and can not do anything to make money. Some of them then are pushed to do crime in which they actually don’t want to be. The other people are still struggling hard to earn small money legally that is not enough to fill their family needs. A real sad story, isn’t it?

I was so lucky to get my degree in engineering and have a job in manufacturing company today. Doing online business is my part-time job. But guess what? I love this part-time job much more than the daily one. And there’s a truly BIG DREAM in me that always encourages me to build this online business bigger and bigger so I can get more money and spend more time with my family.

Are you with me?

But don’t get me wrong. Switching making money from having a daily job to working at home needs to be carefully decided. You should consider your current level of family responsibilities as well. Now check this list out and try to answer my questions yourself.

1. Our success will always be based on how hard we are working on it. I firmly believe with the term: No pain, no gain. No matter what you do, no matter whom you work for, you must fight really hard to get your success. So, are you going to work hard for somebody else, or for your own self?

2. Let’s say that you are the R&D manager in a manufacturing company and you have your $x,xxx monthly check as your salary. If you suddenly come across a genius idea, followed by your very best detailed floor plan, and lead your company a millions dollar profit to collect, do you think you’ll get your share from that giant profit?

3. Most company pay their employees with salary based on the number of time they work. It could be hourly or daily. Under these circumstances, a hard worker employee will earn as much money as the other lazy-and-less worker will get, even though there’s a difference of performance value between them. Which one do you prefer, you’ll get your money based on the number of time you work, or the value of performance you’ve created while you work?

4. There must be a hierarchical level at all company. We all do realize that it is a must and it is normal. That’s how the company’s information will flow from top to the bottom, back and forth. Unfortunately, it sometimes becomes annoying for those smarter people at the lower level who want to communicate their beautiful ideas up to the top level, but find the middle level playing his/her own “game” to take charge of the project. The worst thing is then they pretend that the ideas are originally theirs. Have you ever experienced this kind of “ideas faking”?

5. Company has rules that all employees have to obey. Violation will lead to punishment, varying from the very smooth way to the more serious one. This rule sometimes seems too harsh so it won’t tolerate if you’re late for work, even it’s because you have to take your son to the doctor first! :-( … Let’s compare if you have your own business. You are free to define what rules you want apply as long as your goal is well done, right?

6. Money from your daily job will sustain your family life economically today and maybe until 2, or 5, or 10 years to come. What if you are closer to 55 years old? Retire and leave your career behind? How will you continue your family life then? Are you economically independent already? Don’t you think it is better to start your own business right now, and you will have the time longer to grow that business before you feel too old to start?

7. Being an entrepreneur means that you will run your business with every power you possess, overcome the obstacles by yourself and take the responsibility from all decisions you have made. Both win and loose are totally yours. So scary, huh? Well, maybe it is. But remember, even if you fail after 5 or 8 years struggling for your own business, you might have learned a lot more than if you had the same time working in somebody else’s company. Now, are you ready to take the risks for a precious learning, for your own sake?

8. Having a good job with a big money doesn’t always mean that you love that job. Now you are either doing what you love or you are not. I like my job now at manufacturing company, but apparently online business “has taken my heart away with it”:-D… I really love the way it provides me update information, the easier way to make money with it, the more time it promises me to spend with my family, the more money I can get with it, etc. Are you now making money by doing what you love?
