Beating Busyness

2014-11-03T10:47:00.001-08:00

Good Day,

It's been a few weeks since I've posted here at Moms in Slippers. I love to write so here I go.

Below is a picture of just some of lovely my fall decor. The table is a traditional glass and brass piece that never goes out of style. I moved my cherry table into the dining room and replaced it with this lovely table in my living room.

I've been really super busy lately and I love it. It's always a good busy for me. Below is a picture of the front of my house. I love the look and feel of the warmth that surrounds my front door.

I've been cleaning my house including all the windows in my home since the beginning of October. I do a little each day. I washed my walls, I scraped off all the tape residue from the windows and cleaned them thoroughly, but looking at them in the light of day, I see some lint clinging to my windows which means I'll have to go over them again. I love a clean house so I thought to myself, this year I'm going to get started earlier than ever cleaning for the Thanksgiving and Christmas Seasons. I love this time of year and I have even started decorating for Christmas this weekend. I asked my husband to go up into the attic to get out all my Christmas decorations. I already decorated for autumn and Thanksgiving. I always have Christmas warmth flowing through my blood and when July rolls around, I start thinking about my Christmas menu and what my theme will be for the season. This year I'm going with red and gold. Last year my theme was snowmen and I think I'll add a lot of them to the mix again this year along with my red and gold. I am thrilled.

So beating busyness for me is just impossible, but I love every second of being busy. It gives me a sense of richness and it brings me happiness and contentment. My busyness enjoys taking care of my home and my family. Cooking, cleaning and then doing all the things that I just love to do which is helping moms make ends meet, designing, writing, coaching, counseling, driving my son to school, picking him up from school and then driving him to work on the days he has work. Life just doesn't get any better than this for me.

I hope that as you read all that I am happy to share with you will be just the wealth of information you need to help you to launch your very own work at home business because working at home and being your own boss is the only way to work!

When I started Moms in Slippers my goal was to be a help and blessing to other stay-at-home moms who want to start a successful and highly profitable work at home business of their own. I've been working from home for 12 years now and I love it. I love being my own boss and I love putting in the long hours to keep my home based businesses, successful, prospering and thriving year after year.

MY PERSONAL WORK AT HOME STORY.

How My Work from Home Journey Began.

I worked in corporate America for a long time. 27 years to be exact. I began working at a local hospital 10 minutes from my home back in 1990 and I held other positions before settling comfortable as program coordinator of the residency program in medicine. At the time, I had three young, precious pearls, two that were in elementary school and one in daycare. I never ever liked leaving my baby girl in daycare, but then my mother retired from Lord and Taylor and volunteered to keep my daughter while my husband and I worked. I was relieved because I just didn't feel right about leaving my daughter in daycare 8 hours a day, five days a week.

Each and every day when I picked her up from the daycare center, she would immediately run into my arms the second I walked through the door because she was overjoyed to see me so you can probably understand why I felt such a great joy, a true sense of relief and gratitude to my parents for keeping my little girl because knowing that she would be at home with my parents every day gave me great comfort.

BACK TO MY STORY.

When I began my career working at the hospital, it was just that; work. As program coordinator of the residency program, I was constantly faced with endless challenges; people. It wasn't the work, but the people with whom I worked that gave me the stress. I learned some of the greatest lessons any individual could ever learn working at the hospital.

 One of the most valuable lessons I learned was mastering every aspect of the computer. I became so computer savvy and such an expert, that I was able to help my co-workers and even my supervisor how to do things using the computer that they had no idea about. While working for all those long years, I also learned that I was being limited in terms of being able to use all of my amazing God-given talents. Hidden skills, gifts and talents that I didn't even know I had began to surface when I was asked to create a flyer for a conference the residents were having. Still not thinking about using these gifts to my advantage, I continued to work with diligence each and every day at the hospital, but in the back of my mind I always had dreams of working for myself. I just didn't know how to go about starting and running a successful and highly profitable home based business, but I would soon learn all the components of building my own work at home business.

LAID-OFF

In January 2002, a new regime joined the department of medicine and things began to change in our department overnight and on June 18, 2002, I was laid off from my position as program coordinator. It was right then and there that I decided that I was going to stay at home and just enjoy spending quality time with my children for the entire summer. This would give me an opportunity to plan out, wisely, what I would do when school started in September.

 When September rolled around, I decided that I wanted to stay at home for my family and start my own typing business. I began to do some serious research about how to start my own typing business. I found some great information, but I was able to use everything that I learned in my previous position as program coordinator and I did just that.

 MAGIC FINGERS TYPING SERVICE

(Pictured below is the very first flier I designed myself for my secretarial business. It was then that I also discovered the gift of design)

 In October 2002, Magic Fingers Typing Service was birthed. I designed Magic Fingers in the most amazing way ever. I created my own flyer that proved to be highly effective in procuring typing and transcribing jobs within days of posting it at colleges and libraries. My first typing job was to type a dissertation. I made $650 and then I was asked to transcribe interviews for a professor who was working on his Ph.D. I made close to $3000 for the transcribing job. Even though I was making great money, I was fully satisfied. I wanted more and not necessarily more money, but more in terms of helping others. I was truly earning an awesome living, but for me, this just wasn't enough.

 
BRIGHT SHINING LIGHT BULB IDEAS

Magic Fingers was doing great. I was getting more jobs than I ever imagined and I was elated, but still, something was missing. I had all kinds of ideas rolling around in my head and I wanted and needed to get these ideas and create businesses with each and every one. I was all over the map. Magic Fingers Typing Service became Magic Fingers Secretarial Services because I was implementing more services to my business. I was designing flyers, business cards and resumes. Not long after that, I found myself creating coloring pages for children and then Angel on my Shoulder was founded. Now this business was geared towards helping and blessing kids with Christian-based coloring pages that quickly turned in coloring books which was an enormous hit with families. I turned Angel on my Shoulder into a phenomenon giving aways AOMS gift boxes filled with special items and surprises for children whose parents couldn't afford to buy them Christmas gifts.

 One day, as I was surfing the internet, I found a beautiful website filled with all kinds of beautiful designs. As I was browsing this website, I found a graphic design software listed on the site that had a thirty-day free trial offer that I decided to give a try. I immediately fell in love with the program and I was designing all kinds of unique and original masterpieces of my own. I have to say that at first my designs looked okay, but looking back on them now, they look really amateurish.

 MASTERING THE ART OF DESIGN
 

After working with and using this great software program for thirty days, I was in love. Designing became my passion and I haven't looked back. I've been designing since 2002 and now Cyndi's Light Work Designs lives and thrives. www.cyndisdesignz.com.

I'm still working to get Cyndi's Light Work Designs where I know it has the potential to be and I'm loving every single aspect of promoting and managing it. I put in long hours, but those hours are highly productive with a sense of enjoyment and peace that encompasses me whenever I create a new design for my tee shirts, mugs and other merchandise.

 
ARE YOU READY?

 If you are a stay-at-home mom and you have a deep desire to start your very own home based business that will give you the chance to design your own business your way, why not start today. You could be working in comfort right at your kitchen table or wherever your heart desires.

If you're really passionate about something and you believe that what you're passionate is your unique gift, then why not pour your passion into a lucrative work from home business for you and family. If being your own boss is something you envision and if being the owner of a great, rewarding and profitable work at home business that can serve a need or provide a solution for your target audience, I suggest you start today.

 There is no doubt in my mind that you can do it. I believe that you have the greatest potential to start, grow, manage and promote your own home based business. When you're doing something that simply put, you just love doing, then why not write out your plan and be on your way to enjoying all the benefits of being a work from home business owner. Why not start living your amazing dreams today. I'm here to show you how you can enjoy the awesome benefits of being your own boss. It doesn't have to be all about money. Perhaps you just want to be fulfilled and you believe that starting a work at home business may be the answer to what you've been missing in your life. You can start at this very moment living the lifestyle you and your family truly deserve. Why not use the gifts you have stored in the treasure chest of your heart, open the doors to your home based business and work at home in comfort!

Success to You!

My Tee Shirt Biz!

2014-07-23T11:18:00.000-07:00

I wake up to a treasure chest of blessings every day and today was no

different.

My dear sweet friend, Derrick, called me this morning. When I answered his call the first time, the call dropped. He called right back and asked how I was doing. He then said, “You know the t-shirt I bought from you earlier this year, the Praise Him t-shirt?” and I said, yes I remember he went on to say that a lady in the barbershop was interested in purchasing a shirt. He asked me for my website (of which I have many…lol) so I gave him www.praisehimtwentyfour7.blogspot.com This is a blessing that people are seeing my tees because this is a business I’ve been wanting to pursue for the longest. I am truly excited, so we shall see how things turn out. I will keep you posted.

Let's Start Your Home Based Business

2014-07-23T11:10:00.002-07:00

Have you started your own home based company. Is there something holding you back; maybe you just can’t decide on what business venture you’d like to tap into. There are tons of work-at-home opportunities out there, but wouldn’t it make sense to start with your heart. What I mean by this is simple and really, it is simple, real easy to start a home business when you start from your heart because your start up will be your passion. This is the reason you want to start your home based business because you have a burning passion inside of you and you know for a fact that you can turn that passion into a profitable business, but your focus shouldn’t be earning profits, it should be doing what you love to do.

When I started my home business, I started it because I was laid-off from a job I despised and I didn’t want to even think about working for someone else ever again. I didn’t want to carry the burden of having to go on job interviews and I didn’t want to deal with office

politics. Why do these things that make life so very difficult on a job even have to come into play. Why can’t we just go to work, do our jobs and from time-to-time, be heard when we want to implement our own ideas that we know for a fact will help to make things better for the company. Instead we are forced to deal with supervisors who think they have the right to down to you forgetting that you’re as much an adult as they are and that they have no right to talk to you in such a disparaging manner or tone. This is unacceptable.

Okay, getting back to what I was saying because I’ll go on and on forever about working for someone else. I started my own typing and transcribing business because it was something that I knew had the potential for me to earn a lot of money. Magic Fingers Secretarial Service was born and passed away once I discovered it was not my passion at all. I began to feel like it was a major chore for me to type dissertations even though I made really good money. At first, I was thrilled to have started Magic Fingers because I thought typing was truly my passion, but I realized that owning a home based typing business was not for me when I discovered the art of design. Now don’t get me wrong, I love to type, but for myself and I did enjoy it for as long as it lasted, but when I began creating works of art with my software program, a fire ignited in me and Cyndi’s Light Work Designs was founded. It’s amazing how when I began creating my magnificent masterpieces, I thought to myself, Cynthia, you’ve been wanting to have your own t-shirt business for the longest and your

design business is the gift God gave you to start your t-shirt business. Isn’t it awesome how God puts the pieces of the puzzle together for you out of His love for you.

My desire and initial thoughts were to open an online store to sell my design on various merchandise. I looked into CafePress and Zazzle. When I read about the commission, I closed both stores and just laid dormant for way too long because I just didn’t have the funds to open a physical store and CafePress and Zazzle were out of the question; my oh my was I ever wrong. I am one to research and research, but for some reason, I didn’t research CafePress and Zazzle nearly enough to know that anyone can have a great online store creating and using their very own designs. Now I have several stores on both CafePress

and Zazzle; my only regret is that I wish I would have kept them open; it was a lesson I had to learn. I am growing my stores and I am loving it. I have to promote my stores to drive traffic, but that’s not too hard and when you have a business you love, its never hard work to put in hard work if you know what I mean. I thoroughly enjoy working all of my businesses and blogs. Its like it just feeds me because I love to share my stories to be a help and blessing to others who may be thinking of opening an online store or starting a home

business of their own.

If you want to start a business working in the comfort of your home, don’t wait another second. What is your passion; what gifts and talents do you possess that you think would give you the happiness you desire and that you can use to start and grow your own business.

Think of your passion as a career. You probably have a passion embedded deep inside and you that you’ve given deep and careful thought to; well think no more; if you know like I know you need to just write down your thoughts right now, pen your goals, create a plan and start your own home based business. If you’ve been equipped with all the right tools, your business cannot possibly fail.

How to Use WordPress

2014-07-22T15:57:00.000-07:00

Have you ever tried to use WordPress and found the task too daunting. My goodness, I thought I'd never be able to use this amazing platform for my website. I must have tried WordPress a thousand times. I'd walk away only to go back again and again because I was determined to figure out how to use this awesome tool for building my website.

I've used other platforms for building my websites, but I kept going back to WordPress because I was hearing such great things about it; their themes, plugins and everything else that makes WordPress so great.

I tried Freewebs, Bravenet and Weebly and I really did like all of them, but they weren't exactly what I needed for my business. WordPress offers so much in terms of making a great website with all their great features. It took me some time to figure it out, but once I understood how it all worked, I was excited just knowing that WordPress is so much easier to use than I ever thought and with me being highly computer savvy, so I think, I've been able to have a wonderful website presence for all my businesses.

Marketing Your Business

2014-07-18T15:59:00.002-07:00

Does your business need a boost. Have you looked at your marketing materials. How does your "headline" read? Is your headline powerful enough to keep your business growing? Does your headline pertain to your readers or just to you. Does your headline lead you to sales?

In the never-ending world of marketing, it is important that you write a killer ad. You know the ones; like all the big businesses in the world, they have great ads. Think of yourself as a huge corporation. You need a great headline for your business; one that will hold your readers attention, grab them and make them keep reading whatever it is you are offering. For some, you will be offering typing and transcribing services. That one line ad is one of the most important keys to the success of your business. Be sure that your headline is one that is powerful and conveys a message that you have what they want or need.

Marketing materials are ultra powerful tools that can either, well you know the line; make you or break you. You need great looking marketing materials that make the eye wander through whatever it is you are marketing. Is your message easy to read; is it easy to understand and what is the point you are trying to get across to your readers. Whatever the point is, it needs to be stated clearly and it needs to be immediate. You don't need any hype. You just need a powerful "brief and to the point" message that will turn into sales for you.

Here are a few that I use for my business.

Are you in need of an AA, but you don't want to hire a secretary?

Are you in need of a virtual assistant who can provide you with superior secretarial skills?

Do you need an AA to help you with your work?

My marketing materials appeal to me and if they appeal to me, I am sure they will appeal to my audience simply because I am targeting an audience that needs what I have. I hear the gurus talk about how marketing materials don't have to appeal to me, but why would I create or design something that doesn't appeal to me. I have the eye and the writing skills to either make or break my business. Marketing is a large part of any business. I include it in my daily list of things to do because it is just as important to my business as any other aspect of my business. I love to market and I do so every chance I get. The following materials are great to market your business: flyers, promotion letters, brochures, websites, business cards, mugs, key chains, t-shirts and more.

Always remember, your headline is important to your business no matter what that business may be!!!

Loving What You Do Pays Off

2014-07-15T06:41:00.006-07:00

Rewards When You Do What You Love!

It was a lovely Saturday and I had plans to work on Moms in Slippers to share some things that I thought would be a help to my audience. My daughter who was visiting from Maryland had different plans. My daughter is engaged to be married and decided to go shopping for her wedding rings so she, my husband and I made our way to Delaware to see what we could find at the jewelry store where her fiancé bought her engagement ring. My oh my, the diamond rings in that store were brilliant! I found a ring that blinded me as it sat in the case.

I showed the ring to my husband and then of course, I asked him if he would buy it for me. He smiled and said, “We’ll see!” I knew what that meant. After twenty-six years of marriage, I deserve that diamond ring! That magnificent ring only cost $5200. The employee asked us how long we’ve been married and when we told her she said, “Oh, she deserves a new ring.” My husband immediately chimed in and said, “I just bought her a brand new car so the ring will have to wait.” And then he said, “I may get it for her. “ I’m excited because my birthday is quickly approaching as is Christmas so my finger will be patiently waiting for that bling ring…LOLLLLL

Cyndi's Light Work Designs

Any way, my daughter found her rings and they have to be ordered so that’s done. We then made our way to one of my favorite stores; the Christmas Tree Shops. My daughter was looking for frames to place on the tables for her reception. It was a miss today. I was really surprised because I can always find something at the Christmas Tree Shop.

After that, we made our way to Friendly’s for lunch and then home. I had to give my dear mother her lunch, change her diaper and relax for a while. My daughter was resting as well as my husband. Not long thereafter, my daughter informed me that she had to go pick up her fiancé from Philly. He was at his fraternity’s conclave in the park and she was ready to get back home to D.C. Well, she made it safely to the park down in Philly and she called me to see if I had received her text message. I ran upstairs to get my cell phone only to see this picture her fiancé had taken of a design that I created for the Omega Psi Phi’s. I was elated when I saw that gigantic banner hanging up down in Philly.

Working and working some more always pays off in an enormous way. If you’re working from home, but you are not fully committed to your business, it’s time to change your mindset. Working my businesses consistently is a gift in itself. So go on and get busy and unwrap all the gifts that you have and work your business like you’ve never worked it before. It will give you gifts you’ll be unwrapping for the rest of your life.

A Love for Home

When I became a mother 30 years ago, my heart has always been right here in my home. Creating a warm and loving atmosphere for my husband and children has been a large part of my life. Helping my husband to provide for our children by providing them with the best education, nourishing their precious temples with healthy foods and clothing their bodies and feet with the highest quality garments ever made, I worked outside of the home for 13 years; a long time and long enough to know that I never want to work outside of my home ever again.

The thing about working for someone else was that I never got a chance to utilize my gifts. I demonstrated my excellent typing skills, but that was the limit. Once I discovered what my true gifts were, I decided to start my own work from home business. Loving what I do, I could not have made a more intelligent decision.

For me, working from home has been one of the most amazing journeys I have ever taken. My work at home journey has given me great pleasures and wonderful benefits that accompanies this one-of-a-kind journey; one of a kind because being a business owner allows me to do things my way. It gives me the opportunity to use my gifts, talents, skills and abilities to the fullest helping me to reach my greatest potential.

Starting my first home based business as a virtual assistant was good and I enjoyed typing and transcribing, but I knew there was something greater waiting for me and I discovered what that something was as I began creating coloring pages for children. I went from making coloring pages to coloring books and then to graphic design. Graphic design became my passion. All of this happened in October 2002 and I’ve been designing almost every day ever since.

People who I shared my designs with told me that my designs were amazing. One person even told me that he had yet to see anything close to my designs; they are simply beautiful were his exact words.

My business growth has truly been a step-by-step process and I have taken it one day at a time. At first, I started out creating and designing coloring pages for kids. I went to the next level in my business and I began making flyers from there I graduated to greeting cards for my husband and a dear friend of ours. I started designing business cards and personalized keepsakes for children and families. The personalized keepsakes was one of the greatest components of my business. The personalized keepsakes were certificates that I turned into a short lived business only because I didn’t have the business knowledge that I have now. Angel on my Shoulder was born and it took off. After AOMS, I started Cyndi’s Light Work Designs and this is the business I have come to love and enjoy to the fullest. I have incorporated all of my ideas under the umbrella of CLWD and I enjoy running my business to the utmost. It gives me a sense a peace, joy and true happiness I’ve never experienced. Working for myself, setting my own work schedule and being able to run my business my way is a wonderful feeling.

When I joined Facebook a few years ago and I started my business page, I began posting my designs right away and saw a growth in business doing what I never thought I would or could do and that was creating logos and other designs for people and their businesses. This is something that I truly love doing because design is now my passion. This took my business to a whole level and yet I still wanted more and so I decided to take my design business to the next level which was to put them on tee-shirts, mugs, tote bags and other merchandise and sell them. The platforms that I decided to use was CafePress and Zazzle
and these were great, but deep down in my heart I knew that I wanted something even greater for my business. I wanted a full fledge design business and even though CafePress and Zazzle were great as an introductory for my business, I wanted my customers to order directly from me and I wanted to handle all of my orders. My goal was to be able package all of my items elegantly (depending on what items my customers were ordering) accompanied by a beautiful thank you card with a personal message from me. I envisioned all these things in my mind and I set out to accomplish all of my goals. This is what being
a business owner and entrepreneur means; doing things your way which has the all of the components of growing a unique home based business.

Doing things your way, devising your business plan and then executing your plan for great business success is empowering and uplifting. For me, it has been the dream that I didn’t just have to dream, but the dream that I now live.

Tee-Shirt Business

I had dreamed many dreams in terms of starting my own business. One of my dreams included a t-shirt business. I know people like wearing t-shirts and I wanted to start my own t-shirt business. I did some research on how to get started, but I was a little skeptical about buying a heat press machine only because I had no knowledge of how they worked. I did more research and found that heat press machines are expensive, but I could buy a used one for about $350. I thought that this was a good price, but I was still a little nervous only because I didn’t have a marketing plan in place to sell the tees, so Idecided to use CustomInk for my t-shirt design business and they have been awesome. I haven’t sold many tees, but that’s only because I really didn’t market my business for success and that’s only because I can’t stop designing long enough to focus on my t-shirt business! I hope to someday have a booming t-shirt business and until then, I am enjoying creating and designing some of the most magnificent designs for my clients. They love what I do, but most importantly I love the fact that I have been given such an amazing gift and I can share my gift with the world.

2013-05-28T12:33:00.003-07:00

I have truly been blessed to be able to work from home doing every single thing I love to do.

As a home based business owner, I've dabbled in quite a few businesses that have taught me a lot of things. I'm a typist, transcriptionist, virtual administrative assistant, graphic designer and now a coachsultant (I made up this word because it defines a lot of what I do) and I enjoy them all.

My first love is designing. I enjoy designing and writing more than anything else. It gives me a sense of peace and calm whenever I sit down in my studio to get those creative juices flowing and once I get going, it's hard for me to stop. It's like I'm in my own creative world that puts me in a state of euphoria.

I'd like to share with you a few of my designs that I think you will like. This design was created for one of my other businesses, Bedside Christmas Letters. I founded this business one day when I was laying down in my son's bed and my husband was building a shelf in my son's room and all of a sudden the Holy Spirit spoke to me and said, Bedside Birthday Letters and from out of BBLetters came Bedside Christmas Letters. This is a great business for stay-at-home moms. If you want more information about starting this business, please send me an email and I can help you get started. cyndisdesignz@gmail.com

Moms in Slippers, I work in the comfort of home and I love it!

Work from Home, Make Money Online and Forget that 9-5

2011-08-31T09:00:00.000-07:00

Usually I'm skeptic of these kinds of programs, but I've tried everything under the sun to make money online, I've tried everything from surveys to writing. I always seemed to just make nickels and dimes, when I ran across this program I figured it was just another scam. Although I noticed it has a 60 day guarantee, so I decided why not, what do I have to lose? If their program don't work and is just s scam, at least I can get my money back, and if it's not I can make some money. About 1 week after I bought this program I started to see my residual income rise to about, 70-100 dollars a day. After about 2 weeks I'm sitting at about 90-200 now. This is the real deal and a good way to make some extra cash.

Ease of use – 4* the program is very easy, but it has a slight learning curb, although it only took me a couple hours and I learn slowly.

Quality – 5* This program does what it advertises and makes you money, I'm sure if I put more time into this program I can really bring it a good amount of money!

Support – 5* If you need support they got it, good detail, and a fast response time.

I'm just saying, I wouldn't pass up an opportunity like this, this is a legit oppertunity to quit your 9-5 and get started on a much better life. I have personally tried this product, and trust me it is well worth it.

Link: Make money from home

I think the thing i enjoy most about working from hom is that i get to do what i want, i can sleep when i want, i can work when i want. I love being able to spend time with my family, go to the park and simply have fun then at the end of the day come home and check my account to see i made 50-100 dollars while i was at the park it's a really nice feeling i tell you. Well Unless you enjoy working your life away, otherwise i suggest checking this out.

Tips on Researching Products to Sell Online

2011-08-24T09:00:00.000-07:00

Interested in participating in an online auction site like eBay or sell brand new items on a site like Amazon? There are simple ways to find things to sell, but there are also more challenging ways to find items too. Let's explore both.

Before you begin your quest to search for things to sell, you may want to have some idea how you will be obtaining items to sell. Will you purchase them from individuals or from wholesale businesses? This is important because if you buy from individuals then you don't necessarily need a business license, but when dealing with legitimate wholesalers, you will need a business license so that you can get the best prices on merchandise.

Easy Items

It will take patience and dedication to find items to sell online since many websites cover many different niches. You will want to start by asking yourself, "What do I like?" Put yourself in the consumer's shoes first. When you start selling items that you like, it doesn't feel so much like work. However, when you try to sell items you don't have any interest in, but just want to make a few dollars, you will notice that you will begin to burnout fast from selling online.

To get your feet wet in the online selling business, begin selling items around your home and those from people that you know. When you do this, you will get much needed practice. You will get better with using the online software, writing your descriptions of products, interacting online with customers, and learning more about shipping and handling those packages.

Difficult Items

Now when all personal items are sold online, most sellers end up registering with companies that have a large database of items to sell. However, they pay membership fees to access these databases, use images, and have items drop-shipped. This is when it can be a bit challenging to choose items to sell, because unlike picking items at home, you have to perform research on what sells and what doesn't. Is a company worth buying a membership to access a database or would it be better to perform my own research etc.?

Researching Merchandise

First, take a look at what you sold in the past that you enjoyed selling. Begin listing what other related items you think might sell online. This is a starting point to help you conduct research on your chosen niche. A niche is nothing more than a category that describes the specific type of product you are selling. So if it's a camera you are interested in selling then you need to find all the models related to that camera. Then you would start selling accessories related to that camera and so on.

Next, check competitive sites. Look at their best-selling items posted on the website related to your niche. Note the prices, what is considered a four star item, and read some of the reviews. When you see a lot of positive reviews, you know it is definitely a good product to sell and your refund rate will be most likely zero. Also, learn how to describe the product so that you too can get positive results on your site. Notice specials and offers related to the product.

Pricing

Depending on how cheap you can get the item you plan to sell will determine how much a profit you can truly obtain. Buying a product that only gives you pennies on the dollar won't help you much if you can't sell hundreds of the item fast. Pricing the item higher than your competitors won't yield the results you desire unless you plan on adding something more to sweeten the deal. So avoid choosing items that are over hyped, over priced and have bad reviews no matter how nice they look.

Wholesalers and Drop-shippers

Once you have an item in mind, you will find that there are many sites that will advertise suppliers who can either drop-ship your item or mail it directly to you. Drop-shipping is typically chosen by online sellers when they have no room in their homes to store products. However, those who do have storage space, may go with a wholesaler so that they have better control with packaging and shipping the item. Whichever you choose, be sure you conduct research on the latest scams by searching for the name of the company online. Also, if you want real wholesale prices with a real wholesale distributor, consider making your business a real business meaning you should register it in your state.

Check Google

You will want to search keywords related to the product. Ask yourself, "Which keywords are performing well?" An easy way to do this is to place words in the search engine and when you look at the drop down box, see what other related words come up. Copy down the words you see as well as others you intend to use in your description. Another way, for those people who are looking to do more thorough research is to use a keyword suggestion tool. When using one, don't go with the most popular words with almost a million searches a day. Chances are your site will be lost amongst the crowd. If you plan on paying for keywords, you don't want to pick the most popular ones either, since your competition will be very high. In addition, your site won't rank well for highly competitive keywords if it hasn't been around for awhile and it won't be visited much if you have no clear understanding on Search Engine Optimization (SEO.) So consider learning more about SEO and how to use keyword suggestion tools.

Visit Sites

You will want to check out other niche websites to find out what keywords they are using to get buyers. Also, check the site you will be selling your wares to find out if the item is being sold frequently. On eBay, when you are logged in, you can actually check to see what has been sold already simply by selecting the filter setting just before you search. On Amazon, you can see the popularity of an item based on the stars it receives and the amount of reviews people have written about it.

Read Related Articles

Consider what other people have written about the item. You may find that rather than selling it on an online auction, it may be better to sell it elsewhere. Also, check out forums to find out if there are specific needs that consumers would hope that sellers would address concerning the product.

Join Mailing Lists and Forums

It helps to join a mailing list when you are in search of products and forums where people chat about their ups and downs when selling products via the Internet. Sometimes experienced sellers will share ideas, direct visitors to suppliers, and offer their expertise on selling. You can find some of these sellers on places where digital products are sold and also sites that sell books by former power sellers on eBay.

Purchase Products to Help You Find Niches

When you find that you idea product in your niche is not working out, you may want to consider purchasing a software program that will give you ideas on what might sell.

Now that you have some tips on performing product research, re-read this article and others like it then start implementing some of the tasks. The more you research the better you will get at it and before you know it you will have a nice website with all your latest finds. To your success!

How to Use Social Media

2011-08-17T09:00:00.000-07:00

Every internet home based business marketer may have noticed, that Google changed its algorithms and started to favour more the links coming from the social media. They also downgraded the importance of many article directories. This move forced many internet home based business entrepreneurs to take the social media more seriously.

The fact is that the social media sites, especially the most popular ones, are extremely popular and fit well to the internet home based business marketing. And they cooperate with the search engines, meaning, that the social media material can be ranked high on the search engines.

1. If A Business Is Not Ranked Well, It Is Nowhere.

The high rankings come as results of a successful SEO, meaning that the page has succeeded to get the needed links from other related sites. The ranking is not only important for the traffic, but also to the brand image. Think, when your site is on the first page of the high traffic result page, how many eyes will see the title, teaser and domain, again and again. That is a real brand development.

2. Often The Social Media Is The Visitor Feeder.

Very often the marketers use the social media, like Twitter or bookmarking sites, to feed visitors to the landing page. The visitor has read anly the teaser about the landing page and if interested, he will arrive to the landing page to see the rest.

3. Google Algorithm Change Forced Marketers For Changes.

Earlier this year Google was worried. It was worried, that the social media sites would pick too much from its customer base. Their answer was to change the algorithms so, that the social media was upgraded and the other, less qualitative sources, like some article directories, were downgraded. This made the links from the social media sites more valuable.

4. The Profiles Can Rank High.

The profiles, which the internet home based business marketer writes into the many social media sites are important. Especially the profiles from the most popular sites, Facebook, Linkedin and Twitter, can rank high on the search engines. This means, that the content quality must be of a high class.

5. Remember To Use The Long Tail Keywords.

The keywords are very important in every single post. Even the shortest Twitter post should include the keyword. This makes it possible for the search engines to pick the post and the other marketers can find it too.

6. The Posts Have Shelf Life Times.

Look at the search results. In average every Facebook post gets half of its likes in 80 minutes and 95 % in 22 hours. This means, that if a marketer posts too often, he will kill his earlier posts and if too seldom, he will be dropped away from the wagon.

7. Communicate With Others.

To be able to get, you have first to give. This is the golden rule in all communication. You must start the communication and to share benefits to others, before they start to share their ideas to you. The social media and the SEO can work hand in hand. It is important to understand the marketing process, before a marketer can make it to work. A powerful usage of the social media requires changes in the way, how a marketer uses his time. This must be planned, because social media honestly takes time.

2011-08-10T09:00:00.000-07:00

Website

Your site represents the foundation of your business and is a primary focus which several companies ought to use when looking to maximize business potential. Seeking resources that offer advertisement samples with regard to quality websites will aid you in improving your ability to attract clients and generate potential sales.

Search Engine Optimization

Search engine optimization is the second opportunity which an individual will have to look into so as to generate a low cost marketing strategy. Most clients utilize search engines on a regular basis, through the online environment, in order to find businesses based on keyword references. When your website and marketing strategies could incorporate a keyword foundation that'll increase SEO recognition, you'll improve the opportunity to be identified within these searches and maximize advertise home business opportunities.

Link Building

The third opportunity which businesses ought to look to use to improve brand recognition, as well as increase the resources of search engine optimization, is discovered with link building. Link building is normally extremely simple to establish as you attempt to put your website on well-known sites and respectable on-line resources. Utilizing local resources, such as city directories or the Better Business Bureau, will aid you in increasing the respectable relevance of your links. Even using social networking opportunities such as Facebook will help expand your reach to consumers and improve linking recognition.

Blogging

The final opportunity that most individuals don't pursue is found with blogging. This opportunity would allow a business to promote their goods or services with advertisement samples, while also creating informational articles which appeal to consumer interest. Utilizing this resource will allow you to generate traffic to your website, and improve linking options as people's link to your specific article.

These four opportunities related to improving your prospective to advertise home business only scratches the surface of all that's possible in the online environment.

How To Advertise Your Business

2011-08-03T09:00:00.000-07:00

The online environment creates a chance for several individuals to pursue the dreams associated with owning their own business and developing a self-reliant financial foundation. While these hopes may exist through this environment, it is even accompanied by a great number of fears, due to its size and vast levels of competition that many individuals will discover. Finding solutions that will help you accelerate your business efforts is crucial to ensure online survival and improve the possibilities that exist with generating profit. Anybody who finds themselves questioning how to advertise my business, is taking the very first step necessary to improving online success.

When trying to take the 2nd step into how to start your advertisement opportunities, its important to seek a greater understanding with advertisement samples. These samplings of the various options which are available to you, permit a person or business to assess which marketing opportunities best appeal to their business efforts. Furthermore, the utilization of sample advertisements would aid a business in expanding their idea of the possibilities that are involved in this marketing pursuit. You would be able to identify companies that are failing and see the weaknesses related to their advertisements, whilst also identifying companies that are succeeding and find out which market strategies they utilize in their advertising efforts.

The third step that is often overlooked when looking to discover how to advertise my business is discovered with learning the mistakes which people have made in the past. The Internet has several forums that individuals could turn to, where businesses are either expressing frustration with marketing strategies or praising success they have attained through different online opportunities. Discovering the mistakes which have been made in the past will aid in creating a foundation for your business, in order to prevent these costly mistakes and identify your best ways to achieve swift success with limited risks.

Following your assessment of the numerous advertisement samples that businesses use to improve their business and the identification of many mistakes that you should look to avoid, comes the step of resource assessment. Whilst there might be a wide-range of marketing strategies which can greatly help your business, all these strategies might not be available due to the limited resources your company might currently have. Making an assessment of your financial situation, and also the current direction of your on-line business would help in identifying the best advertisement strategies to accelerate your success whilst limiting marketing expense.

The last step is found with the implementation of your identified methods to advertise my business. You have done all the prep work that's involved with understanding the marketing environment and now you can just dive into this and generate your own lessons of mistakes and successes.

Home Internet Business Ideas

2011-07-27T09:00:00.000-07:00

Home Internet business ideas are a plenty but how many are actually worth your time and investment? Did you know there was around 10,000 new home Internet business ideas unleashed on us all last year alone but I bet less than half weren't worth the time it took to read the sales copy let alone the asking price.

Now don't get me wrong, not all new home business ideas are scams far from it. Take the latest craze that has swept the US earlier this year and still keeps popping up with a different name and angle to it, I'm talking about the "local small business consulting".

You know,where people like you or me take our online marketing knowledge and help offline small businesses get there business up and running online. We can do this because of our SEO and traffic generation skills. I have actually done this not as a home Internet business, but for a friend of mine back in the UK.
Home Internet business ideas in Action

He has a TV aerial installation business in Widnes so I created him a simple website did a little seo vodoo, simple things that are taught in my "SEO Expert Traffic Generation Blueprint Video Training" Type this phrase "aerial installations Widnes" into Google.co.uk and the site I built for Neil should be there in the top two positions. (www.widnesaerials.com).

Home Internet Business IdeasIt has to be said that this home Internet business idea was a great one but to able to start a home business in this area you first need to know your seo. Like I said there are many different types of a Home business, take mine for instance, as your probably aware seeing as your here reading this.

I sell information products which is another one of those great home Internet business ideas. I have actually moved up the ladder a little since I first started, I still sell information products but I now sell the resale rights to information products.

Which basically means, if you buy one of the products on this site you will also get the resale rights to sell that product on and keep all the profit from every sale you make. I started in the very same position when I first started, this wasn't the first of my home internet business ideas but I'm sure glad it was the one I finaly got stuck into.

There's more than one way to make money form the resale rights home business model apart from the two I just went over insted of being the final product reseller or the person passing on the resale rights, you could be the information product creator and sell the master resale rights to the first reseller giving him the rights to sell on the basic resell rights.
Home Internet business ideas - Resale Rights Formula

I hope I didn't confuse you there but just in case this my help clarify it a little...

Creator : Sells PLR or master resale rights to reseller for eg. £500

Reseller : Sells Basic resale rights to final reseller for eg. £ 250

Final Reseller : Sell to end user for £175

Do you see how the product creator make the easier money? For example for him to make £1000 he only has to sell 2. Where as the reseller will have to sell 4 to make the same amount and the final reseller has to sell 6. That's basically how the food chain works in the information products resale rights home Internet business.

If you look into it further I think you will agree that the information product resale rights business was and still is a very good home Internet business ideas

Effective Training Skills

Are you a business presenter? Do your presentation skills have an impact on your career? If yes, then sharpening your presentation skills with mediocre training programs is not enough. You need evaluate and find an effective presentation skills training program that will take your skills to the next level. In turn, this will boost your career and business.

Here are 3 critical points to help you assess any presentation skills program. Use it as a scale and get the best before committing your time and money to any training:

1. Vague tips and tricks Vs Clear step-by-step Process

Any skill that you learn in a training program needs to give you consistent results.

If you look carefully at the training brochure you will find words like tips for speaking, tricks to appear more confident, killer tips to amaze your audience. These are clearly programs that are going to be superficial. Look for words like clear process, step-by-step training program etc.

If they have a trademarked process, that is even better. A Minimal™ Process for Presentations, for example, teaches you such a step-by-step process that ensures you can create high-quality presentations - consistently.

Learning a structured process ensures that you get consistent results time after time.

2. Partial skills Vs Comprehensive Presentation Skills Training

Unfortunately most presenters don't realize that presentation skills are not 1 but 3 skills rolled into 1.

Presentation Skills = Thinking Skills + Design Skills + Presenting Skills

Thinking skills help you put together a strong storyline. Design skills help you create engaging visual Slides. Presenting skills help you communicate clearly when speaking.

Does the training program only teach you presenting skills on body language? Then it addresses only the third part and this skill without the first two is not sufficient. Ask for more from your training.

3. Same old stuff Vs Something new

Rules for Presentation skills are developing and changing all the time due to cognitive studies that research human behavior. Is the training provider staying in touch with what's new or are they teaching the same stuff for the past 15 years?

Check their slides posted online. Are they still using the same old bullet point stuffed slides? If they haven't bothered to update themselves, then you are better off without their training, aren't you?

If you see that the presentation skills trainers are indeed posting exciting new content online and their brochure shows they will be teaching something different and unique, then give them a big tick in your presentation skills training assessment form.

To conclude...

Once you find a program that matches these three criteria, you can be sure that it will help you sharpen your business presentation skills.

Saving on Your Home Based Business Bills

2011-06-29T09:00:00.000-07:00

When you own your own business, it is easy to see how quickly the electric bill can add up and become a large business expense. From heating to cooling, to computers and lighting, the cost to run all of these systems and gadgets can become costly. Following a few simple steps can help you save electricity while saving you money.

Computers and Appliances

Computers consume a lot of energy, and should be put into sleep mode when not in use. Often, employees may forget to turn off their computers before leaving for the night. They don't always realize how much power is being wasted by leaving their computers on. All computers should be set to go into automatic sleep mode after being idle for a period of time. They also should be shut down completely on weekends and holidays.

Other appliances, such as copiers, should be unplugged or turned off when not in use. When replacing computers and appliances, it is best to buy ones that are energy efficient due to the long term savings you will have over the course of their lifetime.

Heating and Cooling Systems

Air conditioning should be turned up a degree or two when in use. Making a slight change like this will be hardly noticeable, but can make a substantial difference in your energy usage. The opposite should be done for your office heating system by turning the heat down.

Staff at your business might be more tempted to try and adjust the office temperature since they won't be receiving the bill themselves. Since you are paying the bill, it is wise to have a programmable thermostat so the proper temperature is already set for when your employees arrive and leave. It is also recommended that there is a lock box around it so that you are the only one with the ability to change it.

Lighting

Older types of light bulbs should be replaced by energy efficient ones if possible. Shutting off the lights when the room is not in use will also save electricity. If you are concerned that staff might forget to turn off the lights, then you could install motion sensor switches. This way, the lights will only be on when the room is occupied, and will automatically shut off when it is not.

Switching Electric Suppliers

In addition to these money saving ideas, it is also wise to look into switching your business electric supplier. You can compare rates to see where you will be able to get the best value for your money. When you find the right service provider, you will be able to save money by transferring your service.

Network Marketing for Your Business

2011-06-22T09:00:00.000-07:00

Few things are as important to your business as lead generation and prospecting. With the reach and power of the internet, few things could do more for your business than being ranked as one of the top 2 or 3 organic search listings on the search engines, specifically Google but Yahoo and Bing are also relevant. My top priority search terms include things like "Network Marketing Training" and "MLM Training". Yours could be whatever terms are most relevant to your business position.

A majority of people in North America now rely on online search for most of their search needs. This includes things like "How do I…" and searching for products, services and information. I have dedicated enough resources to ensure that I get top Google rankings for things like "Network Marketing Training". It's an essential part of my business that people looking for network marketing training find my websites. My business philosophy is centered on finding people who are looking for network marketing training and providing them with network marketing training.

I have used AdWords and other paid search methods in the past and continue to do so but nothing can compare to getting and keeping one of the top organic search ranking for your primary keywords. It's also very rare for people to look beyond the first page or two of listings when performing a search. In fact, in most cases, people do not even look beyond the first few listings. This makes it vitally important that you fully commit to your SEO campaign. You can kind of, sort of try to get a first page ranking for your keywords on Google. You need to know exactly how to achieve it and spend the time and energy to make it happen. There are a number of good network marketing training courses that will teach you exactly how to run your own SEO campaign.

There are countless companies online offering SEO services. Some are good, many are okay, some are garbage. It's difficult to know if you are going to receive good value for your money. My advice is to learn how to do it yourself. It's not hard to do. Like any other part of running your own business, it's better to learn how and why you need to do certain things and then decide if outsourcing that task makes sense. Generally speaking people in the MLM industry have more success if they are focused on learning how to do the most critical functions themselves. Lead generation is one of the most important tasks and running a good SEO campaign is a significant part of successful lead generation.

For my business, my best prospects are people who are searching for network marketing training. I have found that by offering to help people learn how to be successful with my network marketing training courses, I can provide benefits to their business and mine. By working through a good network marketing training course that teaches you the basics of lead generation, including SEO work, you can ensure that your MLM business has a strong, steady supply of prospects.

Small Business Info

2011-06-08T09:00:00.000-07:00

The recession has taught many potential entrepreneurs an important lesson: even if you have a great idea, and even if you are successful in starting your own small business, a recession can almost instantly wipe out all of your success. While it is no news to small business owners or new entrepreneurs that starting your own business can be a risky endeavor, a tough economy can add insult to injury to many business owners whose businesses would thrive in a better economic setting. Therefore, one strategy for those who want to remain entrepreneurial while riding out the tough economic times is to start small businesses that are "recession-proof." Here are several ideas for businesses that can succeed in any economy:

1) Repair Shops

It is a well known idea that during an economic recession, people cut back spending on certain types of consumer goods, such as cars or homes. However, they can't prevent the fact that the goods they already possess will inevitably need to be fixed up or repaired at some point. In fact, repair shops tend to see more business during a bad economy because people start making use of the old goods they have lying around the house, like an old bicycle or old furniture. If you can repair these things, you will be good to go.

2) Education-Related Businesses

Education is recession-proof. In a bad economy, many people even turn toward education as a way to put off job-searching for a few years, or to make themselves more competitive in an economy with high unemployment. Therefore, people will be willing to dish out the necessary money to improve their academic standing or to diversify their academic talents. This is why tutoring businesses, language training, or other types of academic coaching won't fade away during tough times.

3) Cheap Food

It seems like a given that the demand for cheap food will increase when people have less money to spend or when they are being cautious with their spending. However, for most consumers, the fact that they are searching for cheaper food does not imply that they want their food to be unhealthy or of worse quality than what they ate before. This is why it is a smart idea to start businesses focused on healthy or sustainable food that is affordable at the same time. Many new, successful restaurant businesses are incorporating their consumers' desire to remain healthy with the constraints they face on spending money.

4) Businesses Related to People's Vices

Sadly enough, people's "addictions" don't go away during a recession – sometimes they even get worse! This can include vices such as smoking, alcohol, junk food, and more. Starting up a liquor store, ice cream shop, or a shop where you can sell cigarettes and lotto tickets might be a good idea for entrepreneurs who want to ride out any economic setting.

5) Consumer Must-Haves

Like the other categories listed above, many type of consumer "must-haves" are not going to go away in any economy. These can include clothing, shelter, health-related goods, and energy. Starting up a business in any of these industries is a good way to avoid the effects that a drastically changing economy can have on your business. Some ideas can include: thrift stores, medical practices, or hardware stores. You can also focus on making the "less-expensive" version of these stores than the competing stores that already exist in your community.

Working From Home

2011-06-02T08:30:00.000-07:00

The most important interest group for every home internet business are the prospects and the customers, i.e. those people, who contact the home internet business regularly. These people have a lot of alternatives to choose from and the reason, why they pick some marketer is very often the quality of the customer care. The small home internet business operations are always one man companies. They can beat the other ventures only with the personal service, which is quick, professional and has time to listen to the prospect or the customer.

1. The Prospects Use Small Companies For Different Reason.

The big companies have well known brands, which attract a lot of prospects. However, not all prospects like these services, because they cannot reach the level of the professional service, which many evaluates. People choose small companies, because they wait for the personal, quick and professional service. Many people want to chat a little bit about the different offer features, before the decision. This is possible only, if the marketer is available and will respond quickly.

2. The Word Will Be Spread In The Discussion Forums.

A person, who has got a good personal service will tell that message to everybody. That is how the human nature works. It is amazing how quickly these messages will be distributed in the forums.

3. The Customer Service Can Form The Heart Of The Marketing.

If you think the offline world. Many retail shops sell the same articles with about the same prices. But how they can stand out from the crowd and to make their businesses to increase more than the neighbouring ones? One good solution is the customer care. In the online world the whole business modell can be based on the personal care, the job of the site is to draw people to the customer service person.

4. The Customer Care Must Be Quick, Personal And Professional.

The basic requirement of a good customer care is, that it is quick. The quicker, the better. And this requirement concerns all mediums, not only emails and phone calls. When a customer service person has time to discuss with the customer, that will build strong ties for the future success.

5. Develop A Strong Customer Care Team To Beat The Competition.

This is a very interesting business model, because todays businesses are so much alike. Most of them has the same products and the same jargon on their pages. What makes the difference is the personal service, the humean touch. This is a real opportunity and most home internet businesses should take it as their main business models. And it is even easier to build a good customer service team, if you compare it with the site differentiation, for instance.
