Home Business
Home Business Basics
Everyday something changes, in fact most everything changes every day…. Are you? We have moved from the horse and buggy era; its the internet revolution for home business. No need to drive for hours each day to and from work. A Home Business helps you to save time but also leaves a lighter footprint, less damage to the environment with unnecessary use of oil. I love my 2 minute commute! Home Business opportunities have been desired and still are desired by many forward thinking people. But some of the systems used to get financial independence and freedom of time for family and fun just plain do not work!
Nearly everything MLM and Networking companies offer are outdated with the technical age we live in! The old (and in many MLMs the only) system was to have a hopefully decent product, get folks all jazzed up and then teach them the fine art of duplication. Follow me , Do as I do and you will be a success.
So here is how the old MLMers told you to create your Home Business:
Make a list of all your friends and family (not to concern yourself with the reality that shortly they will duck and cringe when they see you coming. Pick up the telephone; yes that 900 pound telephone and call everyone you know to ask to come show them the newest, the best, the most awesome deal that they cant live without. Or better yet, talk them into coming to a meeting. ugh!
Be prepared to stock a lot of product and carry inventory so you can teach them to do the same thing, and so on and so on and so on. That will help to increase your (but primarily your up lines) income.
Yes, the caveat; they will be independently wealthy in only 6 months or so.
Well the chosen few who had extremely good connections to begin with or those that worked so hard that they often sacrificed their families and even their values to climb over others to the top showed the big bucks. It saddens me when I think back of the good people who had their families and marriages fall apart as the dream was chased. Duplication just does NOT work if that is all that you offer someone. It is a recipe for failure for your home business if that is the way you go.
So what is recommended? Its easy to complain and moan about the old days but what about now. NOW we are in a computer revolution with the amount of sales done through the internet is sky rocketing with no end in sight.
The first rules to success:
Work with a team and company that have a proven track record and a willingness to help you achieve your goals, not just increase theirs. Remember your home business must make a profit.
For your Home Business, develop a business plan and stick to it. It is far too easy to become a training junkie (one who spends all their time in on-line training sessions) Find a mentor or two in the company that you respect and are willing to help you. Listen to their advice and keep with the plan. Learn one thing and learn it well, then go onto the next. Before you know it you will have created a profitable internet home business.
Use portal marketing as a valuable asset to its particular market. Each portal is designed to put your traffic into the main stream of Internet culture. It builds a large and diverse portfolio of services and sites, thus your sphere of influence grows exponentially within the expanding market of the internet.
Use various other high powered submission tools, submitting to 2 billion ads at a time AND never do any spamming. Use STRONG spamming controls. The system should be self monitoring.
Teams are the way to go, find one that utilizes a business model of DELEGATION, not duplication. We as individuals do not have all the skills needed to create a successful home business. Develop a relationship with a mentor that will assist you in choosing a Home Business that has a good chance of leading you to success. We are all different. We have different interests, skills, time commitments, health issues, etc. So Teams make sense.

Home Based Business Advice
Advice for setting up or up-grading your home based business:
One important consideration is having a location in your home that is dedicated to your home based business. You can use this as a tax write off, which includes a % of square footage and then divides that up for a percent of heat, lights, water, etc. but the space must be for you home based business only. So if you do not have a room, then mark out an area that is Business ONLY to keep our friendly tax person happy.
Install a phone line dedicated to your home based business.
Decide on an answering service and in most cases it is required to have a 1-800 number for someone to take you seriously.
Organize your work space with great care. Make sure that you have sufficient space to meet your needs. Have what you need within reach and an excellent filing system as well as backup system for your PC.
If needed for your type of business, when scheduling appointments with clients, consider meeting at your client's office or renting a conference room to maintain a professional image. Or learn the new up to date technology of conferencing on the computer. It is fairly easy and not expensive if you use the right services.
Keep excellent records of entertainment and travel expenses. The Internal Revenue Service (IRS) tends to audit home based businesses more frequentlyespecially when they are writing off a variety of expenses, including the percentage of the mortgage or rent for your office space.
There are several good record keepers such as Day Timer, Franklin Quest and Day Planner that will help you keep track of your expenses. Use of an accountant or a CPA is recommended and can advise you on deductions you can take and records you must keep for the IRS. Talk with them before or early on in your business so that you are starting your record keeping off on a good track.
Set up an LLC so that your home assets and banking are completely separate from your home based business. It is easy and inexpensive for a lawyer to do it for you. Well worth the security.
Open a Business Banking account with your business name LLC on the checks.
As soon as possible also get two credit cards with your business name LLC
Set up a SAVINGS ACCOUNT for your home based business, remember keep it in a business LLC account. Build it up because when you least expect it, you will need it.
Develope your computer system, proper programs and decide who will handle your repairs and help as you need it. Check out their service and if possible talk to referrals. Do NOT just trust the Big Computer Stores to be there for you. You are usually not a person to them, just a broken piece of equipment and you go into the 'Q'. Trust me; a good computer person on your team is worth their weight in Gold. A good 2nd PC lap top that can multi task can be a life saver.
Discipline yourself. You must be a self-starter and follow a routine, just as if you were working for any other business. In many cases, you are the only person you can rely on to get the job done. Unless it's an emergency, do not baby-sit or chat with your neighbors.
There are literally thousands of people entering into a Home Based Business due to the sagging economy, massive business layoffs, and whole industries vanishing as work moves overseas. Families are needed in the past a second income for those little extras; families now need a steady income they can count on. I strongly suggest diversification (never put all your eggs in one basket).
Now it is time to look at a business . Might I suggest you look at Its Good Business. It is solid, easy to work with (notice I didn't say you don't need to work) but we do work on a TEAM basis and you have a mentor to help you firm up how you want to work your internet Home Based Business. This is a very flexible business giving you many ways to make a good income and have freedom to be with your family and friends.

When you dream about a business you need to know what you want to do, how you want to do it, then implement what your dream looks like. Does this happen over night? No! You have to perform specific functions to achieve the end result in starting a home based business. In other words, it all starts with developing a detailed business plan.
Do you wake up in the morning and say Im opening up a home based business today? What ever you do if it is a home based business or a brick and mortar business you have certain tasks you have to accomplish before you open your home business. You just dont turn a key and you have your work from home business, you have to plan for it, as you will see.
Starting a home business! What an awesome task! Everyone, well maybe not everyone has a dream of starting a work at home business. But, for the ones that are energized to do so it is a major undertaking when you work at home. It also can be very rewarding!
How do you plan for your business opportunity? You should do several things; determine what you are going to provide a product, or a service. Do some research pertaining to your product or service? Then you need a mentor to help you plan your home business, this is called a business plan. This plan guides you through the steps of what you have to accomplish in starting a home business. It's a road map for your business.
If you have tried a home based business before, then you certainly know of the challenges that you need to overcome.
