In the exciting world of day trading, eminis have become a massively preferred and lucrative form of trading. But what is it exactly and why has it become so well-liked?

E minis are a method that’s employed to trade an index such as the S&P500 but on a much smaller scale than trading the index themselves. An e mini will allow you to get into the index contract at a fraction (about one fifth) of the expense of the full contract. This can make emini trading reasonably priced to quite a few more personal investors/traders and has permitted the market to really open up.

So besides becoming more cost-effective to the day trader, here are some other elements which make day trading eminis so appealing:

* Online Trading

* Nearly 24 hrs a day – The e mini can be traded 23.5 hrs per day, 5 days per week (having said that the market is far more volatile and liquid in the course of the regular US trading hrs.

* Volatility and Liquidity – with the massive volumes being traded on the market every single day, the market is both volatile and liquid.

* Low Brokerage Rates – with online trading there is no necessity for human intervention when placing trades. There are many online brokerage firms who have the software and technology to place your bids, stops and sell instructions at the click of a button.

* Leveraged Product – being a leveraged product means that you pay a relatively small amount but reap the benefits of a ‘big’ contract. So any little gains you make can translate into big profits. Nevertheless, by the same token, any little losses you make can also translate into large financial losses.

Even though day trading eminis is now open to a considerably larger group of traders, it’s still not a novice’s game. You need to get training on how to trade the e mini market and you absolutely need to make certain you practice by paper trading initially. Yes there is a lot of money to be produced in day trading eminis but there’s also a lot of income to be lost! Don’t jump into it without first understanding what you’re doing.

Did you know that approximately 79% of Canadians use the Internet? According to Google, 20% of those Internet users go online to search for local business. Whether it be for restaurants, hair salons, pet sitters, bakeries, retailers…you name it. So if your website is not optimized to be found, then you are potentially losing out on 20% of the traffic.

What exactly is Off-Site SEO? Off-Site Search Engine Optimization is when brick and mortar businesses have their website optimized so that they can be found on the Internet by major search engines. For example: let’s say you’re a small business looking for a reasonably priced SEO Ottawa company to help you out. You would type into Google “SEO Ottawa” for a list of local businesses that do SEO in Ottawa.

Hopefully, if you are one of those local business listings that show up for the above search in Google Maps, you have “claimed” ownership of your business site. Google offers this service for free and it is simple to do. However, only 15% of small businesses have actually claimed their site. Millions of users are looking at these Google Maps listings every day. Don’t you want your business information to be accurate and up-to-date? If you are one of the nearly 2 million businesses that has claimed their Google Maps listing, then you are way ahead of the game.

However, there is so much more to off-site SEO than claiming your Google business listing. Having a blog, Facebook page, Twitter account, are all important components for SEO. But even these social network sites are just a small part of the equation. Your site needs to be keyword rich, have backlinks, header tags, and all the other SEO lingo that goes with optimizing your site.

But you don’t have to be well-versed in any of this to make it work. That’s what SEO companies are for. It’s unlikely you would fix your own plumbing in your office should it spring a leak, you don’t want to be fixing your own website when you don’t have the knowledge.

With off-Site SEO becoming increasingly popular, more businesses are realizing that they need to step up their game when it comes to their website. Advertising in the Yellow Pages is becoming a thing of the past. It’s expensive, and you never really know how many times people have looked at your ad. With off-site SEO you get those statistics up front. And because the information is interactive, you can use video to be found, as well as be optimized for mobile phone users. Once small business owners realize the power of the Internet as opposed to advertising in the phonebook, the opportunities are endless.

Most small business owners are struggling with just keeping their business alive and running. Having to work on their website and learning exactly what needs to be done to get better rankings in search engines is something they want to do. However, they’re not quite sure how to go about doing it.

That’s where doing a search for “SEO Ottawa” on Google will help you. And off-site SEO doesn’t have to be outrageously expensive to be good. There are many reasonably priced companies that are willing to help you out. Keep in mind that if your SEO campaign is done right, the cost of it will be minimal to what you reap in terms of new business in the end.

article writingWisdom can be found in the most unexpected places. Today, wisdom bubbled up from a pineapple under the sea. I suddenly realized that everything you’d want to know about writing articles for your website can be taught by SpongeBob SquarePants and his friends.

When you write for your newsletter, blog, or website, which character are you most like?

Mr. Krabs: This crustacean is focused on one thing and one thing only, making more and more and more money. Only a cartoon could actually have dollar signs drawn in his eyes. He thinks of no one, only how he can benefit. Are your articles focused on you or on the reader? Are you providing information or do you have blinders on, thinking only about how you can make money from the article you are writing? If your article reads like an ad or is self-serving or full of affiliate links, you might write like Mr. Krabs.

article writingPlankton: The smallest creature in the sea is also the sneakiest. He’ll do anything and hurt anyone to steal someoneelse’s work (the Krabby Pattie secret formula). Write your own material. Don’t be Plankton. Don’t copy and paste someone else’s work, edit it, and try to pass it off as your own. You will be caught, and it just isn’t worth it. Take the same amount of effort and work on your own thoughts and ideas. Plankton never gets away with his schemes, either. He’s on Plan “Z” and is still pathetically failing at his attempts to steal the secret formula.

Patrick: SpongeBob’s best friend, the starfish, has a good heart, but isn’t the brightest creature in the sea. Do your articles make you sound like an expert? Are you providing valuable content or just pushing out sloppy articles as fast as you can? Always double check for typos and grammatical errors. If you’re challenged by spelling and grammar, hire a Virtual Assistant or Copywriter to proofread and submit your article for you. Or slow down, set your article aside for a article writingday and then reread it before you click the “submit” button.

Squidward: Squidward is B-O-R-I-N-G. When writing articles, are you a Squidward? Do you just get the words down on paper or are you finding a fun twist to entertain your audience and keep them coming back for more? Take time to make your articles stand out from the thousands of other dull articles out there by including personal stories or just having fun while writing. For instance, this article could be entitled “How to Write a Good Article”, but would it stand out from the hundreds of other articles about article writing? Probably not.

SpongeBob: This little guy always tries to do the right thing, and is a hard worker. He may not always end up getting the results he hoped for, but he bounces back and tackles his work with a renewed vigor. SpongeBob works very hard, he’s a good friend, he always thinks of others, and tries to have fun no matter what he is faced with. Hardworking, friendly SpongeBob is the guy to be when writing articles.

article writingAlthough this is a silly lesson in article writing, I hope you’ll remember the important messages our underwater friends have taught us.

1. Write articles to help others, not with dollar signs in your eyes.

2. Write your own material. Don’t copy others.

3. Proofread your articles carefully, and provide valuable information.

4. Be entertaining. Not boring.

5. Be a SpongeBob! Hard work and persistence pay off.

Before you know it, you’ll develop a following for having informative and entertaining articles and you’ll be King or Queen of the sea.

You…A Travel Agent Home Business Owner?

The question should be…”Is this a dying profession?”  Well, summer is over, but there are still some great travel deals out there, and most people think that going online is where you go to find the deals.  So this might be the end of the travel agencies in the next few years.  Even President Obama recently used travel agents as an example of a dying profession.  Well, I beg to differ.

There are still over 14,000 travel agencies active in the United States, and 94% of them made a profit this past summer. Should you even consider owning an offline or travel agent home business in this age of “Point and click?  Let’s see…

Against all predictions, the bricks and mortar travel agencies…the kind you can walk into and talk to real people is alive and well today.  You see, even after summer is over, people can’t wait to go away again.  Despite the downturn in the economy, people are still traveling a lot.  According to Liberty Travel, the number of customers has grown every single year.  But wait a minute…Bricks and Mortar?  That’s what companies like Borders was in the book business until the Internet killed that off.

Before we go any further…Following is a video I thought I should share with you…

Secret Seats on Airplanes

What About Expedia, Orbitz, etc?

Isn’t everyone supposed to go to online travel to sites like Kayak, Expedia, Priceline, orbitz, etc, and find rock bottom travel packages and cut out the middleman?  Wasn’t that the point they made on 30 Rock not long ago?  Well guess what…there is a migration back to traditional travel agents.  It’s so damn frustrating trying to find great travel deals at sites like Expedia.  It’s not as easy as they make it seem in their commercials.

I would rather have an online travel agent find a good deal for me…like a trip to my home town in St. Vincent.  I lived in one of those houses on the beach… in the picture below.  Gorgeous isn’t it?  Looking at it makes me homesick.  I need a vacation.

travel agent home businessNow there are some things that we still need a middleman for.  Some people survive online using sites like Expedia, but many are lost and get frustrated like my mom and myself.  You see, dealing with a travel agent is still a human experience in a way that doing business on the internet is not.

Humans, you can talk to when booking travel, but an airline website…No!  It’s what you call, real backup.  When something goes wrong, you have someone to call…an expert travel agent.  And the great thing about it is, you don’t have to have a Brick and Mortar travel agency.  You can work from home…own a travel agent home business.

Many people who made reservations via travel sites like Orbitz got stuck in the path of Hurricane Irene.  However,  if they booked with a travel agent, they could call the agent and have the travel agent change their plans with minimum fuss to get them where they want to go.  No holding for hours on the phone…all the work done for them.  Travel agents usually have real knowledge about the world out there.

I think I’m getting a bit carried away here…looking at videos instead of finishing up my article.  Shame on me…he he

What about finding cheaper deals online?

Travel agents can help you get the same price or even do better than the prices online.  So despite what you might have heard, travel agencies are here to stay.  The internet is not killing this industry.  So if you would like to start a travel agency…own a travel agent home business.  There is no need to open a store offline. You can start your business for as little at $200.

Not sure you want to be a travel agent home business owner, but want to own a business online in the travel industry?  Well, you can create a cruise review blog like Small Ship Cruises Review.  There are so many ways you can make a good living online with a review site like Small Ship Cruises.  You can advertise almost anything that has to do with cruise travel and earn a commission from the ads and affiliate products you post on a site like that.

10 Best And Real Work At Home Jobs…

According to Yahoo Finance, travel agents made the list of the 10 best and real work at home jobs.  Make sure you check out the list on Yahoo Finance.  You might see something else on that list that interest you.

Again, despite the fact that the internet makes it easy for people to book their travel online, travel agents are not going away.  It’s a great home business to start.  So what are you waiting for?  Let us help you get started today.  Well that concludes the travel agent home business post.  Hope you enjoyed it.

Small Home Plans

Want to live 100% debt free, pay only $75 in utilities annually and make money at the same time? Yes? Despite what is going on with the economy, it is paving the way for some people to live a comfortable life. This is for those who can see past the negative aspects of the economy and find a way to thrive from it.

Many are doing it and plan to do so just like my best friend.  She called me the other day quite excited.  She told me that there is a huge movement…the tiny homes movement where people are downsizing and getting rid of their mortgages, other debts.  Many are able to quit their jobs because the cost of living is so low.

Living large: A look inside the tiny house movement | PBS

The world is learning to live small and Jay Shafer is leading the way. CNN even says so! Mortgage free? $75/year in utilities? Not a slave to your house anymore? Escape the rat race? Can you live this way?

My friend was excited because she too decided that she was going to move to Asheville North Carolina and build her tiny homes. All she needs is some cheap but solid materials, small home plans, and a little help and she will be living a debt-free life.  It’s amazing how things are changing drastically since the downturn in the economy.  People are doing whatever they can to save money and survive this crisis.  It’s sad to say, but it has to get worse in order for it to get better.  So we have quite some time before we are out of the woods.  So this tiny house movement actually makes a lot of sense.

small home plans

Since we don’t really own our real estate in the country, why not build our own tiny homes.  As far as finding the land to build the homes on, that can be rented for a small fee.  If you already have land…it makes life much easier.  I am thinking as I type that people who have mortgages and a nice sized backyard or maybe a garage could rent out their homes, convert their garages into a Tiny Home and live happily ever after.  Why not?  Well pride would cause lots of people not to do this.

The thought would be, “Who in their right mind would want to rent out their nice homes to others while they have to gather the small home plans to build pretty much what my husband calls a dog house.  Well that’s how he feels.  However, for some reason, I think it makes sense.  Do we really need a lot of “Stuff” to survive?  No…not at all.  So that should sum it all up.  We can live on very little and have a happy live.  Living with a lot of debt can be torture.  So I end this by saying, “More power to the Tiny Homes Movement.”

Small Home Plans……

IN his 20s, Michael Janzen made pottery and lived in a cabin in rural California that he estimates was “about the size of a two-car garage.” After he married, he went into Web design for a bank, and now at 40 has all the trappings of a successful homeowner: in-ground pool, maid service, a yard landscaped with Japanese black pine bonsai trees. His 1,800-square-foot home in Fair Oaks, Calif., a one-story model by Streng Brothers, midcentury builders in the Eichler mold, is of a kind coveted by fans of modern design.

THE LILLIPUTIAN LIFE Some homeowners are using their new little houses as offices or retreats, like the 80-square-foot one owned by Michael Janzen. Others choose to actually live in theirs, like Dee Williams, whose 84-square-foot knotty-pine house has a tight but cozy interior. So why has Mr. Janzen spent the summer building an 80-square-foot “tiny house” out of free stuff he found on Craigslist?

There he is on nights and weekends, designing a floor plan whose dimensions are measured not in feet but inches, nailing scavenged wood pallets together for the frame, or fixing up an old trailer to serve as the foundation. The initial reaction from his wife, Julia: “Is this a Unabomber building?”

Not exactly. According to Mr. Janzen, he came to the realization that “I don’t want this life — the life of someone who’s working too hard to pay a large mortgage to live in this house.” The catalyst, he said, was watching the value of his home plummet with the rest of the real estate market, while the time and money required to maintain the property only increased. “The energy cost is enormous,” he said, “and the bigger your property gets, the more there is to do.”

Which is why Mr. Janzen has become interested in the small house movement, whose adherents believe in minimizing one’s footprint — structural as well as carbon — by living in spaces that are smaller than 1,000 square feet and, in some cases, smaller than 100. Tiny houses have been a fringe curiosity for a decade or more, but devotees believe the concept’s time has finally arrived.

Looking For Work? What About Starting An Offline Business That Has A 99% Chance Of Succeeding? Look No Further…

My friend sent me an email regarding people looking for work moving in droves to North Dakota. I didn’t plan on posting anything like this, but I figure if I could help just one family without a job relocate and find work, then it’s worth my time posting it. Also, not forgetting that for entrepreneurs, there are lots of opportunities there.

My first reaction was…North Dakota? Is this for real? Well, despite the economic downturn in America, there’s a huge oil boom going on in North Dakota. Everybody’s working. Unemployment in Williams County, North Dakota is less than 1%. Could you imagine? Unemployment rate is less than 1% in North Dakota, while in the US on a whole, it’s up to 9.1%.

You can literally get off the bus and find a great-paying job within a few hours in North Dakota.  While others are desperately looking for work in other states, there’s a labor shortage in North Dakota. Yes, you read it right…a labor shortage. You can make $25 an hour as a waitress and $15 an hour working at Wendy’s, $80k driving trucks…average salaries are $70,000 – $100,000.

Businesses that are struggling in other states are setting up shop in North Dakota.  It seems that there is not a business you can start in North Dakota now that wouldn’t make it.  So this is not just a job boom, but for businesses also.

The only downside to this all is, due to the “Boatloads” of people moving to North Dakota everyday looking for work, there’s a housing shortage. New oil field workers are sleeping in their cars. In addition to housing shortages, it’s cold up there… below 20 degrees at night. To solve the housing issue, a mobile home would do the trick…one equipped with all the bells and whistles.  Check out the video below…

Looking For Work? Go to North Dakota!! Oil Fracking jobs GALORE!!- MSN Money

If you’ve been desperately and you would not mind relocating, North Dakota is the place to be.

NEW YORK (CNNMoney) — Workers are landing jobs that pay six-figures in the oil boomtowns of North Dakota. But the abundance of jobs and money comes with some steep trade-offs, including a lack of housing and extremely harsh winters.

At 3.5%, North Dakota’s unemployment rate is the lowest in the country. (Nationwide, the rate is 9.1%). But among the small towns that lie along the Bakken oil formation, like Williston, Watford City and Belfield, unemployment is just 1.5%.

Many of the highest-paying jobs are at oil companies, where workers make an average salary of about $100,000, often with little-to-no experience or need for a college degree. Halliburton (HAL, Fortune 500), Continental Resources (CLR), Hess (HES, Fortune 500) and Whiting Petroleum (WLL) are among some of the biggest players in the area. And jobs include everything from working on a rig to hauling crude and equipment in trucks to helping with administrative work, said Shawn Wenko, workplace development coordinator for the city of Williston.

But it’s not just the oil companies that are hiring. The oil boom has brought such a big influx of people that every single industry — from hospitality to retail — has been hit with overwhelming demand as a result.

Driving down Main Street in the more than 20,000-person town of Williston, N.D., which has the highest average salary in the state of a little more than $57,000 and about 2,500 job openings at any given time, you’ll see one hiring sign after another.

I doubled my salary in North Dakota

At fast-food chains, the going rate is about $15 an hour. Hair salons, pharmacies, banks, hospitals, gas stations, bars and clothing stores are also desperately looking for employees and paying a pretty penny to keep them from defecting for the oil fields. Even the local strip club is booming, with dancers making up to $3,000 a night.

“If someone doesn’t have a job here, they don’t want to work,” said Wenko. To find a job in Williston or any of the nearby oil towns, including Stanley, New Town, Tioga, Dickinson or Minot, check out North Dakota’s official job service portal, Job Service North Dakota, or visit job portals or Craigslist.org where there are several local postings. But before picking up and moving across the country, there are a couple things to remember.

Many of these jobs — especially those working for the oil companies — require grueling hours and physical labor — from lifting equipment to getting dirty performing maintenance on oil wells. As a truck driver or oil field worker, in order to earn all of the coveted overtime pay, many employees only get 3 to 4 hours of sleep a night and then have to go straight back to work.

It is our pleasure here at e-businessmoms to be able to share the handmade wire wrapped jewelry designs of Dale B Craft.  The jewelry designer, Bernice Craft creates all unique, one of a kind pieces… wire wrapped jewelry and also sewn vintage style jewelry.  The jewelry is absolutely beautiful.  Click here to view a wire wrapped jewelry from Dale B Craft.

There are lots of different shapes and colors of natural and polished gemstones.   Each one is considered to be the inspiration for Bernice’s wire sculpting. My wire wrap technique has evolved over a number of years and is still evolving.  Bernice also enjoy ssewing colorful and sometimes sparkly necklaces. Each piece of jewelry actually become a wearable piece of art. Below is a video of some of the wire wrapped jewelrydesigned by Bernice Craft.

Below Is The Story Of Bernice Craft And How Dale B Craft Got Started

I began my online jewelry business almost 2 years ago.  I also sell my work at craft shows and local boutiques.  For me creating and selling jewelry was a natural progression.  Up until the time I began my business I had worked in the banking industry, something that was lucrative for me but not very satisfying.

It’s great for me to be able to experiment wth shapes and colors and work with natural gemstones..The colors that exist in nature are amazing. The earth is a colorful planet.  Not just greens and browns, what we are taught are earth tones, but vibrant purples and reds and blues and just about every color you can think of.  Taking my cue from that, I try to create ‘wearable art’. I know this term is used a lot lately, but it is truly what I am attempting to do.

I work with wire wrapping and metalwork.  Sometimes I sew necklaces using small seed beads and gemstone beads.  Very often when I start a piece, I’m not sure what the end product will be. My work is pretty much organic, and it takes shape as it progresses.  Sterling silver is great but in the past few months I have been doing a lot of work with copper.

It adds a vintage, retro feel to jewelry. My style is always evolving and I am inspired by other jewelry artists and different cultures from around the world. I could go on for a long time about how much I love creating jewelry, but I think you get the idea.  For many of us right now the changing economy is making us look for new ways to earn a living and the lesson I took from this is that we all have our talents and things that we love to do.

A job or business doesn’t have to be something we don’t like and that causes us stress. We can actually turn our talents and the things we love into a business and have fun doing it.  And when you enjoy your work, it becomes apparent in the things you create and in the way you view the world. I view it as a great opportunity..

GPS Collars Have Gone to the Dogs

Bill Clinton once stated that 20 years ago no one, but the most scientifically superior, knew about the internet… and now (as he put it): “…even my dog has a blog”, so it’s no shock that the high tech marketplace is looking to broaden computer utilization to our dog friends.

In accordance to a current write-up in the Toronto Star, Snaptracs Inc., a division of the technology giant Qualcomm, is entering the pet supplies industry by releasing a product referred to as Tagg that will enable you to use Global Positioning Systems (GPS) and cell phone technology to track your lost pet. Tagg is a collar-attached GPS which transmits back to a base at home. Before fitting the collar, proprietors will into the system an appropriate range for the pet. As soon as the pet leaves the acceptable range, or “geofence” in Tagg parlance, an e-mail is sent to the owners’ telephone.

Producers of the Tagg product also promote that it might be used on cats as well, as long as they weigh 10 pounds, or more. In the United States, Tagg is offered to Verizon telecommunications clients. At presentt, no deal has been worked out with a Canadian phone service to permit the system to operate north of the border, but it surely won’t be long before dog owners on each side of the border have access to this product.

Customers of the Tagg system could need to pay a monthly membership fee, as well as initiall outlay to buy the collar clip and base unit.

Snaptracs Inc. isn’t the first to market a technological solution for lost pets. For years now, pet owners have had their vets install a microchip that will identify your pet, if found and taken to a veterinarian for scanning.Even though microchips are substantially less expensive in contrast to the more superior Tagg, it suffers the disadvantage of being a “Tennessee Williams” approach- one which “…relies on the kindness of strangers”- in that you have to hope that someone turns in your lost pet.

Meanwhile, an additional US manufacturer, GIBI Technologies wants to produce a mobile social networking site for pets, enabling owners to connect over preferred spots, activities, and products.

How about if you wish to know whether your dog walker has completed his job today? Well, yet another American manufacturer believes they possess the answer; Pet Check Technology has devised a system to keep tabs on walkers by having them scan a bar code on their cellular telephones at the start and end of their walk.

Many pet owners might find this all to be quite interesting…just as long as their dogs don’t end up with more friends on Facebook than they do! So check out an online pet store today to see if you can find any of these nifty pet gadgets.

Work From Home Tips…Eleven years ago, I can clearly remember how desperate I was to work from one of my bedroom in Queens Village, NY. I had recently given birth to my firstborn son and boy was I excited. When the nurse placed that precious little man on my chest after giving birth, I knew I was in love. I knew then and there that there was no way in hell I was going back to corporate America. I found myself caught between feelings of desperation, determination and perseverance…I did not want my son in daycare.

Work From Home Tips?  Very Little Information Available…

I spent hours upon hours daily searching for work at home jobs with no luck. There was very little information on work at home jobs…the legit ones. There were so many MLM opportunities, scam opportunities…they were in abundance. I wish that there were websites like this and many others that provided work from home tips that I could apply and find work. There was just none out there. I almost gave up several times after searching and searching every single day.

I had to pay for all work from home tips…or so it seemed…

The people that were supposedly making “boatloads,” of money online refused to give me any type of legit work from home tips. No one gave out work from home tips freely. I emailed, wrote or tried to speak to so-called internet marketing gurus…anyone that I thought could help me make money online. Back then, it seemed like no one cared…no one understood how I felt…how I wrapped myself in a ball after putting my baby to sleep…and cried my eyes out night after night. All I wanted was a work from home job.

If only someone…anyone would give me just one or two legit work from home tips it could change my life forever. No…there were no work from home tips, no jobs that I could find…zero, zilch…nada. I felt so all alone. I felt lost. My family looked down on me because I left corporate America, a well secured government job. I had a corporate communications degree…oh boy…and no job. However, I still refused to give up my search to find legitimate home based work. I didn’t care if the pay was low. I just wanted to contribute to my household income. I certainly believe in the Law Of Attraction although I didn’t know anything about it then, because one day out of no way, a way was made.

I was given an opportunity to work from my home office as an independent contract for Fortune 500 companies. I had to make a couple upfront investments but I saw a paycheck every single week. This was the break I cried and prayed about every single day and I could not believe it when it happened. Now, I have reached to the place where I can share the same home-based independent contractor opportunity with you.

Today it’s so different and you don’t have to go through the hell that I went through. With the ever-expanding internet, lots of ways are being made for people to earn a living from home. There are much more information out there on working from home…really great work from home tips. E-businessmoms.com prides itself in providing an abundance of work from home tips, independent contractor opportunities and offline and online business information for those who want to start their own business from scratch.

If you are reading this right now and you are suffering from work from home information overload, know that sooner than later, you will earn a living from your home office. Also know that we are help to help you. You have to know that without a shadow of a doubt and it will happen. One of the main thing I’ve learned over the years is not to give up. The minute you give up, that’s when you fail. There are so many ways to earn a living from home, and this website can help. Take a look below at some of Tory Johnson’s work from home tips:

Work From Home -Tory Johnson’s Work-From-Home Tips

______________________________________________________________________________________________________________

By TORY JOHNSON ABCNews.go.com
November 1, 2006
Whether you’re looking to contribute to your family’s finances or earn some cash to cover special or unexpected expenses, many people want more ways to make money at home.

From freelance to full-time gigs, we have a range of fields and resources below to help guide you in discovering the options that exist. Only you can decide if an opportunity is right for you.

Don’t limit yourself solely to responding to advertised openings. Sometimes the best way to land a home-based job is by calling someone you’d like to work for and offering your services.

Virtual Customer-service Agent

A growing work-from-home opportunity is to answer the inbound customer calls for companies like J. Crew, 1-800-flowers, Virgin Atlanta or Walgreens. These major players and many others like them outsource their customer-service calls to companies that hire U.S.-based virtual agents.

Set your own hours and pick an account that’s ideally suited to your knowledge and interests. In addition to having a pleasant voice and strong customer-service skills, you must have high-speed Internet access, a computer, a landline, and a quiet place to work — all of which you pay for on your own.

Expect to make an average of between $8 and $15 an hour depending on your experience, call volume and accounts. Be prepared to work a minimum of 20 hours per week, although some agents work 40 hours to 60 hours when their schedule permits.

Among the companies that hire inbound and outbound agents to explore:

During a Take Control Tour last year, Tory Johnson helped Skye Starner, a Colorado mother of three, find a job she could do from home.

Making Your Career at Home Watch Video

Alpine Access hires virtual agents as employees. Other companies, including LiveOps, West and Arise, Working Solutions, Accolade Support, Customer Loyalty Concepts, Sci@Home, Reps for Rent, Overflow, ACD Direct.

Each company has different needs based on location, hours, clients, payment schedules, skills, knowledge, etc., so be sure to check with a few of them to determine the best match for you. Some pay hourly wages, while others require that you incorporate in order to work for them.

Create Your Own Product Line

Ever dream of seeing your slogans and artwork on T-shirts, mugs or hats? You can turn that dream into reality — and into cash — without investing even a penny in expensive start-up costs like equipment and stock.

Submit your original ideas and art online to Web sites like zazzle.comcafepress.com and others, and you’ll receive commission on all sales generated with your designs.

Do this for T-shirts, mugs, kids’ accessories, housewares, posters, stickers and so much more. In addition to securing orders from strangers who visit those sites, you can also make money by doing some proactive promotion of your own. Encourage your friends and family to place orders, and get them to e-mail all of their friends, too, by forwarding links to your products.

Channel Your Inner Judge Judy

Instead of spending time watching the courtroom programs on TV, make money while determining verdicts as an online juror. Lawyers deciding whether or not to accept a case or looking for preliminary feedback on cases they’re currently handling use various Web sites as a cost-effective tool for research and focus groups before heading into a real courtroom.

Sites including eJury.comOnlineVerdict.com, and TrialPractice.com pay nominal fees to home-based e-jurors, ranging from $10 to $60, depending on the length of the e-trial. Research all of the sites and read the requirements before signing on to serve.

Beat Milkshake Recipe

I was craving something sweet to drink. I wanted a milkshake. Not just any milkshake, a beet shake.  Okay…so who in their right mind drinks beet milkshake?  I do.

I bet you didn’t know that there was such a thing as a beet milkshake recipe.  Let’s pause for a bit so that I can add the beet milkshake recipe below.

Ingredients for 8oz Beet Shakehalf of a beet, 4oz water, 4oz carnation milk, teaspoon vanilla essence, teaspoon almond essence, a blender, a strainer and lots of condense milk…make it creamy and sweet. This is deadly on the hips…but sooo good. You would be surprised at how good it taste. I treat myself to it once a month…builds up the blood.

My beet milkshake recipe article continued….

I hate eating beets. I’ve always told my mother that it is one of the worst tasting vegetables on the planet. It has an after taste that I just can’t stand. However, if you mix the ingredients of my beet milkshake recipe…mix that baby with dairy, some vanilla and almond essence, you end up with something so heavenly that you have to put your feet up to drink it. Well I am exaggerating here, but it’s really good.  Ha Ha He He

So what does my milkshake recipe have to do with making money?

Well, here’s the deal…there are over 49,000 people searching every single month looking for milkshake recipes…all kinds of flavors.  If you thought my beet milkshake was weird, you might throw up when I tell you that people are searching for avocado milkshakes too.  Oh hell no!  Avocado milkshake?  Uhmmm…that would not touch my lips.  (Laughing Out Loud).

49,000 People Searching For Milkshake Recipe? What’s the big deal?

How can you make money with this? Well, you know what, you can throw up a WordPress blog similar to this one and call it milkshakerecipes.net.  The milkshakerecipes.com is up for sale for $1300.  Wanna buy it?  Go right ahead. You can purchase milkshakerecipes.net, throw up a simple blog and offer milkshake recipes on it. How would you make money with this? Several different ways. However, I would like to just share one here today.

You can create one video per day, for example….peanut butter milkshake recipe.  You can create a Youtube account, keyword optimize and upload the videos daily so that people would find the videos and link the videos back to your blog, and also embed that same video on your blog.  Add the recipe below the embedded video on your blog and also add a paragraph or two. You can see your traffic increasing month after month.  Your next step would be to recommend a few related products like the…

Will It Blend,” Blendtec blender

…and the Thoroughly Modern Milkshakes recipe book.  You must first become an affiliate of those products and you would get a commission whenever a blog visitor purchases your recommended products. Make sure you either test out the products yourself or check out the review page to make sure it’s a good product. Make sure there are way more positive reviews than negative. That is just one way to profit from milkshake recipes.

What Is Affiliate Marketing?

So what is affiliate marketing? Affiliate marketing is basically selling other people’s stuff. Merchants like Gap, Walmart, Amazon, Home Depot , etc pay you a commission when you sell their stuff. My favorite stuff to sell are digital products, ebooks, etc.

One of the best and largest affiliate network is Clickbank.

Clickbank only offers digital products for affiliates to promote. For instance if you have an ebook that you created, you can put your ebook in Clickbank’s marketplace and affiliate marketers sell your ebook for you and you would pay them a commission. So this is what authors of ebooks and other digital products do.

You can see an example of how an author of an ebook, software, directory, etc would go about advertising their product. Here’s and example of a digital product on clickbank.

If you were to promote the Instant Site Launcher you would receive a 75% recurring monthly commission. You can promote this product on a website, blog, via articles, on forums, on google, etc. You would create an affiliate ID on Clickbank for this product and you would direct potential customers to the sales letter via your affiliate link. Once customers purchase, Clickbank would send you a commission. Commissions are paid bi-weekly.

Check out Clickbank to see products offered in the marketplace. Clickbank takes care of the entire process from processing customer payments, paying affiliates, and even issuing refunds to customers who make such requests. There are thousands of ebooks and digital products offered for affiliates to promote on Clickbank.

Your job as an affiliate marketer is to find buyers who are in desperate need for some product, service, information, etc, that would make their life much better. Think about it, at some point or time in your life, you were in need of a solution to a problem that affected your appearance, health, love life, etc.

You see, millions of people are searching on the internet every single day for information that can make their lives better. For instance, one of the main reason why my work at home directory was created was to help people find work at home contracts, which are quite difficult to find because 98% of work at home job offers are scams.

My former directory gave info on how to avoid scams and weed through the garbage to find a real job. There were lots of info and videos showing where the real jobs are. This would help many people, especially moms to stay at home and work around their family’s schedule.

These people are desperate and they want solutions that will make all of their problems go away. Most are willing to pay a price for it. You, as an affiliate marketer would then find a niche, a group of people desperate for a solution to their problem and then you would give them what they want (an ebook with a solution to their problem, a product, video etc).

Here are some niches that you can start with:

  • People who are very unhappy with the way they look. They might be losing their hair, have acne, need to lose weight, yellow teeth, etc.

People who want to improve their sex life (adult products). For example, men looking for products to increase their ejaculation volume, enlarge their penis, etc.

  • People who are looking for the love of their life and having a hard time doing so. People who need to date and looking for a great dating site.

People who have dogs that are not obedient and they are looking for dog training advice.

  • Parents of children who a certain disorder that they need help living with (ADD), etc.  You get the point.So as an affiliate marketer, just give these people what they want, they will pay for the product, and you receive a commission. That’s it. Let me break it down… SOPS…Selling Other People’s Stuff.Here’s the process:Hungry Market – Give the hungry market what they want = CommissionI hope this was helpful.You can start promoting affiliate products using blogs.I love blogs because they are much easier to maintain, add content to, and they rank faster in the search engines than websites.As a matter of fact, it seems like many people are trading in their websites for blogs, especially WordPress blogs.If you have any questions, please feel free to contact me.

    According To Wikipedia…Affiliate Marketing is…

    Affiliate marketing is a marketing practice in which a business rewards one or more affiliates for each visitor or customer brought about by the affiliate’s own marketing efforts. Examples include rewards sites, where users are rewarded with cash or gifts, for the completion of an offer, and the referral of others to the site. The industry has four core players: the merchant (also known as ‘retailer’ or ‘brand’), the network, the publisher (also known as ‘the affiliate’), and the customer. The market has grown in complexity to warrant a secondary tier of players, including affiliate management agencies, super-affiliates and specialized third party vendors.

    Affiliate marketing overlaps with other Internet marketing methods to some degree, because affiliates often use regular advertising methods. Those methods include organic search engine optimization, paid search engine marketing, e-mail marketing, and in some sense display advertising. On the other hand, affiliates sometimes use less orthodox techniques, such as publishing reviews of products or services offered by a partner.

    Affiliate marketing—using one website to drive traffic to another—is a form of online marketing, which is frequently overlooked by advertisers.[1] While search engines, e-mail, and website syndication capture much of the attention of online retailers, affiliate marketing carries a much lower profile. Still, affiliates continue to play a significant role in e-retailers’ marketing strategies.[2]

Often a phone call to the customer service department of many companies, here in America, leads to a foreigner on the other end of the line. Fortune 500 companies and many marketers online are offering virtual call center jobs and other remote jobs to people outside the United States. This is called offshoring. Many Americans argue that this is taking away from the US economy, especially in times of economic crisis. Is this harming America’s economy?

That’s an argument that can be debated on both sides of the coin. Most companies and online marketers are outsourcing to India. Some companies claim that they have no choice. With the economy being in an uproar in the United States, some companies claim that they are forced to offer virtual call center jobs outside the United States. These jobs are also offered to Philippine workers. Many are college educated. They can speak good English too. Filipinos accept virtual call center jobs for as little as $1.25 an hour USD. This is the main reason why American companies hire offshore.

Internet marketers claim that foreign workers are more loyal workers than American workers. Is this true? Maybe, maybe not. So in essence, many employers whether online or offline state that foreign workers often stay with them for the long haul. Offering virtual call center jobs to foreigners is known to lower cost by 70% while increasing productivity. That is certainly a huge advantage for business owners. Many Americans are angry and will never get over the whole idea of offshoring. Remote jobs are so hard to find, especially when there is about one in every 25 remote jobs being legitmate. The other 24 are scams.

So many Americans, especially stay at home moms, the handicapped, etc are desperate to find jobs that allow them to work from home. Offshoring certainly does not help the situation at all, or does it? Is there a better way for struggling companies to avoid offshoring? Many angry Americans have a hard time answering this question. Several states are considering laws to restrict or prohibit offshoring. Unions are also lobbying Congress to end what they call, “madness.”

Despite the fact that offshoring can create a dip in the amount of jobs available To Americans, the truth of matter is, it can also benefit the American economy. Companies pass cost savings on to American consumers through lower prices. Also cost savings are passed on to investors through higher profits. Let’s talk about new sales. You see, companies also get new sales from Indian firms that boost imports from America. The U.S. economy also redeploys workers who lose their jobs from offshoring. And this is done in ways that boost growth as well. So therefore, offering virtual call center jobs and other remote jobs to foreigners can be looked at from “Both sides of the coin.”

On Valentine’s Day, I baked a lemon flaxseed cake for my hubby. It  was “Almost guilt-free,” due to the low-fat ingredients and healthy  addition… Flaxseed. It was absolutely delicious. I’m not saying that  because I made it… well, cut me some slack, I think I deserve a  cookie for that (He he).

Anyway, my family and I enjoyed it a lot.

So what in the world does lemon flaxseed cake have to do with working from home? You might be thinking, “Vernette you are a little off here.” Well, I’m not. I thought I would share this recipe with you and explain why I’m showing off my cake.

Well, there are many people who have a passion for baking and don’t know how to get started in their own home baking business…baking cake, cookies, cupcakes, etc. You see, I can bake well, even without a recipe in hand, but have I ever thought of starting a home baking business venture in the past? Absolutely not. I’m not that great (smile), and furthermore I never had the drive. Before I go further with this articles, check out this video on how to make cupcakes by Caitlin McDermott. See…you can turn a baking passion like Caitlin, and make a boatload of cash in your own home baking business.

For the moms and dads who can bake exceptionally well, why not consider a home-based baking business? Before you get started think about a niche for your home baking business. What about baking for weddings? Maybe you can cater for birthday parties, banquets, etc.

You can also specialize in baking custom cakes for special occasions, such as customized picture cakes, etc. So many niches to choose from.  Well, if you’ve decided on your niche market and…

Want to own a home baking business, here’s how to get started:

First of all, baking must be your passion in order to become successful in this business. You’re going to be baking your life away (most likely).   Also, in setting up this type of home business, you’ll have to do your homework. You want to make sure that you’re in accordance with all of rules and regulations. When dealing with food, strict rules do apply, especially for home baking businesses.

To get started, I advise you to get in contact with bakers, caterers, other home-based food businesses, personal chefs, etc. I’m sure that you will find lots of these people in your area and they can share with you what they went through to get started and also share any information with you about licensing.

In addition to speaking to other business owners in your area, make sure you call up your town, county and state licensing office. Ask them for all the guidelines that a home  baking business would need to follow. One of the first things that you would need to do is make sure that your kitchen is up to par because it will have to pass an initial health inspection.

If your kitchen passes inspection and you get started, you should have it in mind that you will be visited frequently by health inspectors. These inspectors just want to make sure that you’re still in compliance. If you want to grow your business to make it extremely profitable, you can go on a large scale beyond your local area by selling baked goods to commercial establishments.  You can also sell through the mail, etc.

Maybe you’d like to target busy parents and focus on baking children’s birthday cakes or providing homemade cupcakes or cookies for the birthday child to take to school. You can even cater to the health-conscious, and bake, for example, low calorie brownies with some type of healthy ingredients, Flaxseed bread and any other breads with nutritional ingredients.

You also have to think about how you’ll market your product. Are you interested in selling directly to customers in and around your town, or do you want to supply stores with your finished products?

Would you contract with a caterer to provide desserts for special events, or would you be hired directly by the client to create a show stopping cake? How about setting up a Website or mail order fulfillment service to peddle your wares?

Depending on the volume of bake goods that you would be supplying, it would be wise to find a wholesaler who can provide you with such things as sugar, spices, flower and other ingredients in bulk. This way, you would not have to run to the supermarket often just to replenish your pantry.

So with all of this said, please do your research carefully and make sure that this is what you want to do before you go full force into this. It sounds like a lot of fun, but it’s a lot of work. Make sure that baking is your passion or you will give up sooner than later.

According to a recent hiring trend report from Elance.com, article writing is one of the top 5 skills that businesses are outsourcing to freelancers. It seems like everywhere I turn, there are companies looking for good article writers. It’s really no surprise, especially since Elance caters mostly to online businesses. After all, what is the Internet made of? Words, images and video. These words are actually crucially important.

Most Internet marketers don’t have the patience to sit and write an article for their blog, for distribution to article directories, etc. Some don’t actually have the skill. Either way, marketers online would prefer to work on their next product instead of writing articles. Time is money. Since marketers and online business owners have no time to write their own articles, thousands of jobs writing articles online are available everyday. This creates a lucrative opportunity for people like you with some writing skills.

You can actually start out writing articles as a means of getting your “Feet wet,” and building up your writing portfolio. Once your portfolio is large and you have become an expert article writer, then you can move on from there. There is no other time than now because the jobs are in abundance. Article writing can lead to other jobs writing research papers, essays, etc. You can then move on to online ghostwriting. You would find the bigger bucks as a ghostwriter. There are other in-demand skills for online ghostwriting. And those in-demand skills are, copy writing, blog writer, press release writer, email marketing specialist, and don’t forget, white papers and more.

So what does this mean for you? Well it means that you can acquire specialized skills, which leads to less competition for you and more opportunities. The key to standing out above the crowd in any job market is to have a specialized skill…high demand but low supply. This way you can actually charge more for your services. Many copywriters make six-figures annually. Wouldn’t you prefer to earn $2,000 for writing just one sales letter, versus article writing for $10 an article? I rest my case.

If you’ve been thinking of breaking into ghostwriting and doing it quickly, I recommendJust Add Sweat. This guide to ghostwriting will show you:
