How to Make Money Online with Your Family

I heard one time where someone said that building a make money online business is somewhat like learning to do the basics of walk, talk and spell. Each must be learned but in its own time. Yu don’t learn to spell first and you have business skills to learn in their order as well. If you want your business to be a family business it will take some organization.

Does your family love spending time together? Do you balance each other out well in skills, abilities and aptitudes? Being in business to make money online takes a balancing of many hats and if you’ve a strong family, perhaps you can all share the responsibilities.


It will do one of two things, either draws you closer together or you’ll realize quickly that perhaps one of you should run the business and not do it as a family because if it is straining your relationship, well, it just isn’t worth it.

Putting a
business and family together can lead to success but also bring the greatest of challenges. There are many advantages of having a family business. More time together working can with the right couple bring a closeness of accomplishment.

Families can share core beliefs that they can use to their advantage in business and also it helps to control their own long term plans for the family. It means a measure of control is being held in their hands. Financially and Time, both are worth gold and a make money online business from home can give your family that opportunity.

There are tax benefits to be considered as well. A certain amount of money can be paid to children, there are many tax write offs which in my mind equals income but these issues are best addressed with your CPA or tax accountant before you set up you business so that you can take advantage of them and set yourself up properly.


Setting up an LLC for your business will also protect your home from the business if by chance misfortune comes your way. But with good planning, hard work and preparation, your home business can make money online.

So sit down with the family and do some brainstorming on what, who and how. Try to think of as many scenarios as possible and then as a family come up with your solutions. This can be a good time to see how well you can work together and can you all have passion for a business that you can run as a family enterprise. Here is to your success – see you at the top.

Comunication Skills to Make Money Online

Know Your Communication Skills to Make Money Online

What are some business facts that we need to know but would rather ignore? Never ignore what can bite you in your pocket book. Starting a business usually begins with all kinds of excitement as you prepare for your new online home business.

To make money online will require gaining experience in the internet world of commerce and Search Engine Optimization SEO, and many other new skills. It is wise to learn these skills yourself unless you have a business partner to share the load. Paying for services to be done for you makes you very dependent on others and is a major drain on your pocket book.

Getting your business off to a good start is just the beginning, but keeping it profitable is the challenge for the first 2 to 4 years. Business statistics say that small businesses fail at a rate of 50% in the first four years. That seems about right from what I’ve observed.

As an internet business mentor I’ve seen most fail because of lack of preparation, lack of skills and willingness to get them or hire help in an area when needed, not enough dedication to be consistent and responsible enough to work for themselves. Some people just are better employees and some are better at as business owners. No right or wrong in that, just fact. To make money online takes dedication, preparation and perseverance. Have you got what it takes?

To make money online, usually people think of skills such as knowing how to use the computer or certain programs, bookkeeping and such will be the task. But to have entrepreneurship requires a different type of personality. You’ll need excellent interpersonal skills and a study of personality profiling will stand you in good stead no matter what business you choose.

To know if you are talking with someone who want and will respond to technical information; or one who you need to ask how the family is before approaching business discussion or even the one style that wants info short and to the bottom line. If you can’t learn how to size up what people need you might as well be talking a different language.

Communication skills are so very important and the average persona is stopped in their tracks when handed a telephone and required to talk with people or train a new rep. Selling skills are needed even if you find yourself saying, “I’m not selling anything” – oh yes you are. If you own a business you are constantly selling yourself and your business and that takes good communication skills.

Toastmaster International is an excellent program and many top business people have gotten their first start there in learning the fine art of communication. So prepare yourself to make money online with a highly successful home business. And prepare yourself to stand up to the challenge. Relish the challenge.

Do You Have Passion to Make Money Online

Have Passion for YOUR Make Money Online Home Business

Published by Tana Hamiter - Goes Green Mentor

In these uncertain times, when jobs are not what they used to be and certainly are not secure, more and more people are looking to have some type of home business to make money online. When the information age came it changed everything. Everyone has a home personal PC and from the youngest child to our Baby Boomer Seniors all are using PCs for knowledge, to purchase product and service and for communication around the world.

There are lots of tips for success when you start to make money online. It is important to take your time and do your homework of research. First thought is, are you really ready to be your own employer? Think about it. On first glance it sounds wonderful, oh the freedom of it all. But in reality you will have to be dedicated and work often harder for yourself than you ever did for an employer. The rewards are greater and I like the freedom to make my own choices. But even freedom has a price.

It would be wise to get your personal finances in order before jumping into a business. Over the years the majority of those going into business because they desperately needed money and were on the verge of collapse, well, they didn’t make it. Part was they didn’t have the needed capital to work long enough to get the business brining in enough income and so it collapsed in on its self. To make money online is no different, it takes capital to get any business running, and you are investing in yourself. Also is seems like people can just feel the desperation one has when everything rides on making a sale. Learn to work out of passion and not desperation.

Pick an area to work in that you really have a lot of interest in. Not just interest, something you can be passionate about. That is a wide open arena when looking to make money online as every type of business in this era requires a web presence. Computer skills are like our grandparents learning the ABC’s. If you are new to computers don’t let that hold you back. You learned to drive a car and you can learn to work with a computer. There are many courses, help through local colleges, even the local teenager or grandchild can teach you what you need. There are also highly qualified programs on the internet BUT beware and watch for scam artists, there are those always ready to take you for a ride.

The passion you have for YOUR home based business will carry you through the hard times of start up, the learning curve and all that comes with being your own best and best employee. You can make money online. It's hard work and worth every moment of it. I'd much rather have my own business than to ever work for a job. But then that's just my way.

Make Money Online with Affiliate Marketing

Businesses are always on the lookout for products or services that they can make a substantial profit on and many are using an Affiliate Marketing Program to do that. According to Wikipedia Affiliate marketing is an Internet based marketing practice in which a business rewards one or more affiliate for each visitor or customer brought about by the affiliate's marketing efforts. Affiliate marketing works well to make money online.

I'm going to share several good options for Affiliate Marketing. Each person has different interests from Travel to Health and Nutrition, and more.

Unfortunately many believe to make money online they can set up a razzle dazzle and some splash pages, banners and promise of FAST EASY MONEY! They throw a web site together, some of them are actually very nice sites and function well but most are pizzazz, even bright and gaudy.

Some misguided people believe all the flash means they will quickly earn lots of money. And the belief that the money is going to just flow into their banks is nothing more than fancy and illusion.

Affiliate marketing, done properly is an extremely good way to make an honest income and provide products and services that are needed by the public. It takes hard work and dedication to bring a business to fruition and it is a shame that some people have given Affiliate Marketing such a bad name. To make money online in affiliate marketing is In reality a smart marketing program that is good for the public and the business owners.

To become successful in the affiliate marketing business several step are needed.


First: A well designed Web Site that is clean and crisp, easy to read. The back ground should be white or close to it. Use Arial or Veranda as they are the two most accepted scripts except for headers. Too busy a web site will turn people off.

You only get about 5 seconds once someone sees your site for them to stay or leave. That isn’t a lot of time so use it wisely. Drop the ‘cheep tricks and flash’ so many people throw in. A clean easy to read site gives professionalism and confidence in your business and products.

Remember the 3 click rule. Keep pages with clear headings and where it take no more than 3 clicks to get where they need to be. Write lots of content rich articles. Always give the client a wealth of information that is valuable. Make sure to be clear on the positive aspects of your products or services. But it is better to write many short rich articles than a few long ones. If you are clear and professional then the client will want more information.

Always keep writing new articles that are full of what I call ‘meat’ – give them a reason to keep coming back.

Second: Be clear who you are targeting; who is your audience and are they seeking information or are they looking to purchase. If someone visits your site and doesn’t buy but likes your articles and finds them helpful, they will often book mark or you can provide an RSS feed. Frequently people don’t purchase on the first visit, so look sharp and stay sharp and stay Professional.

Create Blogs and link them together, the more the better; write e-zine articles or other offline publications, join social marketing, get your name and the name of your business to become household words. You want to brand yourself and really let people know who you are. But to do that you need to have valuable information to share.

Target these articles to bring potential customers back to your site again and again. Write at least one 400-600 word article every week. By continuously writing and submitting articles you can generate as many as 100 targeted website visitors daily. If just 1% of your visitors bought a product, you will have sold 7 products each week just from that source alone.

Third: There is easy access to offer free e-books, reports or software program for your clients. Remember that it is human nature, people love something for free. Use these to also capture their information and offer newsletters so you can use auto responder messages to them and it will be more of a personal message. Research states that it often takes seven contacts with a client before they buy or join with you. So get your name, articles, press releases, e-zine articles, fronter pages, webs and blogs out there. The more the better as long as you are very professional in your approach.

Never SPAM, its bad business and never sink to that level. Always treat your business with the utmost of respect and your clients will be able to feel that.

Make your subject lines in article, blogs, email and such, very compelling. It’s your job to make people really want to look through what you are offering so keep it simple, fast and clean. When I visit a new web site if things are a hassle such as trying to find a phone number for customer support, I for one just click to the next site.

Always make your information easy to find, name, phone, 1-888 number, email address, fax, hours you will be open and available.

Take some time and cruise the internet, see what webs catch your eye and hold it. Google Search for all the key words you would use for what you are offering and make notes as to what works for you and what doesn’t. See through the eyes of the buyer and you will get a good education that will assist you in development of your own sites.

To Make Money Online - Treat people like you want to be treated and you will do well.

Income Opportunity and Home Based Business - Activity Management part 1

Do You Want or Need a Home Based Business with a Solid Income Opportunity?

Published by Tana Hamiter – Goes Green Mentor

What is the Difference between Time Management and Activity Management? How does that affect your family and Home Based Business? What about stress and exhaustion; feeling out of control?

There are countless reasons people are turning to Home Based Business opportunities. The unsecure working environment, massive sellouts, shut downs and retiring early of the senior employees to name a few. Then there is the cost of everything from housing, gas, groceries, and utilities (we’ve been told our heating expenses are projected to double this year alone) and more just going up and up but ask yourself: Is your income going up to keep pace with it and inflation? Do you have 25% of each paycheck going into a safe savings; whatever that may be? Of course not, you’re living on the edge like most of the people. A legamate Income Opportunity has got to be on your mind, and with jobs being so unstable, a Home Business can be the key to survival in the coming years.


Google Search on Why Look at a Home Business gives a wealth of information BUT beware - it is not as it appears. Do YOUR homework and understand the marketing position you are putting yourself into. Also what kind of training is available, real training and is it at NO extra cost! Be Wise!

With that said, yes a Home Based Business makes sense. No matter what your choice is for a 2nd income, help to support the whole family income or to prepare yourself for a full time career that could lead even into retirement years. You see, the baby boomers have no intention of going quietly into the rocking chair on the front porch. We want more, much more out of life and an active mind is part of that.

No matter WHY – you will do well to learn the difference between Time Management and Activity Management. It can make all the difference you need and is BIG key in any business.

Time Management has been used by people at home and business people for many years and has grown less viable than ever with each passing year. Our lives are speeding up and if there is one truth you can hang your hat on it is: “you can not manage time, we each get exactly 24 hours in a day, and it marches on with our without your trying to manage it”.

Stop for moment and look at your system, if you even have one. Do you feel overwhelmed, out of control, exhausted because you’ve piled your plate so full that it drips over the edge like a plate at Thanksgiving Dinner? Do you have an ongoing list of to do’s, postsums stuck up everywhere, calendar at home with notes on it from where to be for a soccer game to biz meeting with the boss, or even worse is the whole family writing on one calendar. Another calander at work that is out of sinc with your kitchen calender? Do you have a day timer or computer pal too? Things that you have written on the back of an envelope and small note books with more takes to do!

That is Time Management and Chaos all rolled into one. It not only doesn’t work, it leads to stress and exhaustion and leaves your home business with a zero income opportunity. Are you ready to change your habits and learn some success building tools?

Choosing the right companies to work with and having the internet/web tools to support you and your home business is important. But so is having a mentor and team members in the company who share their hard learned secrets to success.

Income Opportunity and Home Based Business - Activity Management part 2

And How Balanced is YOUR Home and Business Life?

Published by Tana Hamiter - Goes Green Mentor

In a previous article I discussed the need for Activity Management and the benefits it has on de-stressing your life. You must learn to organize your business life and home life in balance or failure will loom over your head. No one has success in any income opportunity if they can't balance their life and business. Today is a great day to start getting organized. What use is a Home Based Business if you are driving yourself to exhaustion and frustration? If you truly are going to work towards that Income Opportunity then being disciplined and organized is a must. I suggest you look back to article part 1 on Activity Management.


A Google Search on Importance of Activity Management can lead you to most everything you need to know. The secret, yes the secret is to use this information on a consistent basis. That leads to business success and Income Opportunity.

First: ONE system that carries all your information in it and I mean everything! I’m going to address the regular person, not the techno jocks which keep up with everything from buying stocks to having a cell phone of sorts beep you when it’s time to buy your mother a birthday present.

You will have to piece together your own system because at this time there is not one available to meet all your needs. Get a zippered Day-Timer of sorts (zippered so really important things don’t fall out). There are three sizes most common, tiny if you have almost nothing going on in your life to manage, medium size and the semi brief case size. I use the Medium Size and have for yours for my home based business.

You need a yearly calendar, monthly calendar showing all seven days of the week (I like the columns going down am to pm, not the squared ones. Daily work pages (left side is the schedule for the day and on the right side you make a list of things to do). Think carefully and write your primary goal. Hand writes it out EVERY DAY, your primary goal for the day and a place to list those things that are scheduled to be accomplished.


Now have a section for an ongoing to do list that everything gets placed on to, except for a separate section for buying groceries. So this ongoing list might have: finish tax preparation, sign kids up for summer camp, call someone, reschedule the date for party, write 5 new blog posts, check back office of web site and contact 5 new people for support, etc. This list gets everything that crosses your mind. NO exceptions. Have column for making a date if it must be done by a certain time. Also prioritize them. Note what things can be cancelled, delegated or put of until appropriated time.

For those things that take multiple tasks, for example plan wedding for Mary: Start a page with the heading ‘Wedding for Mary’ and then start making an ongoing list of everything that will need doing, using the same system as above.

Have a place for Address and email, possibly pass codes, etc. Have a section for taking notes; some folks need a section for clients and your ongoing work with them.

Personalize your system to meet your needs. Everyone has different needs.

Now tie it together. EVERY NIGHT, yes NIGHT, so it settles into your consciousness while you sleep. Do two things; Review what you did accomplish that day. Take note, did you overbook yourself, are you in balance? Some things you will decide are priority and move to next days to do sheet and others you will realize just are not that important. Delegate, Cancel or put on the back burner what you need too. Congratulate yourself for your growing success.

Look at your Main Goal, read it again. Go to your to do page and see what tasks need doing TOMORRROW; be sure if you put call George also write down his phone number. Keep things simple. Write only the tasks that need done TOMMOROW so you can quite carrying and worrying about things, holding them in your mind while you try to be productive. Don’t worry, now they are all written down for you and you can let it go.

Check your tasks page that has multiple things needing doing. Is there anything on it that needs done TOMORROW? Notice I keep coming back to looking at each day, one day at a time.

Once written down, look it over, is everything there? Did you overbook yourself and need to simplify your life or are you in or out of balance to achieve your goals both business and family.

One more bit of help. Have both a pencil and highlighter in your day timer. Write out all your lists in pencil as things will need to adjust and change as priorities change. Crossing out ink makes a mess and clutter slows productivity, even in a day timer. Now as you complete any task, take the yellow high liner and mark through it so you can easily see your victories. If I’ve called George for example but only got the message machine, I’d put yellow line ½ through it so I know its started but not done.

At the end of the day this gives you a very visual report of your progress. I guarantee it will when followed every day, distress your life (because you aren’t having to hold so many things in your mind) and it will give you a real look at how you work, where you scatter your energies and what you need to shift. In a home based business it is critical you become your very best employer and the very best employee if our income opportunity is going to be a success.

Want to reach your goals? Then learn Activity Management to increase your income opportunity in your home business. I guarantee as you distress your life, plan with purpose and use time wisely your odds of success rapidly increase.

Choosing the right companies to work with and having the internet/web tools to support you and your home based business is important. But so is having a mentor and team members in the company who share their hard learned secrets to success.

We all use Veretekk System for all out internet/web support, tools and training, You can have a FREE for life Silver Veretekk System to get you started with some tools you will need for a serious income opportunity.
