Your World Wide Web Presence
While it is true that not everyone needs to have an online operation, any business who wants to grow outside of their local community should have web presence.
At the very least, a one-page website letting people know you exist out there in the real world. What do you need to get started?
1. A service or product that you can get to people from outside of your area with minimum or no cost to you.
2. A domain name.
3, A website host.
http://www.HostLikely.com offers free web design classes with monthly hosting. You could have a website up in days, and make it as simple or elaborate as you want. Check more tips in this section on getting traffic to your online business.
What about Online Homebased Business
The economic downturn has left many of us scrambling for ideas to pad our pockets. However, the real challenge is finding legitimate work at home. Here are two tips you can use to help you weed through the junk and protect yourself as much as possible should you choose to find an online homebased business.
Never "invest" more than you can. Whether it is the $20 a month savings club business or the $999 one-time software resale business, if you cannot afford to lose it, you cannot afford to take the risk.
Always go for an "opportunity" that will give you something in return right away. Often this may simply be a ready-made website or free hosting. It is usually not free web traffic, which is what you will need to have a chance at profitting from any online business.
Errand Business Definition
An errand business is a spin off of the hotel concierge. Errand services do all the little things that use up so much of our free time, from dropping off and picking up dry cleaning to grocery shopping. Some services only deal with businesses, and become concierges for a whole office building or specialize in messenger services.
Bed and Breakfast Definition
A bed and breakfast is someone's home that is open to paying guests. The guests usually are served a hearty breakfast after a soothing night's rest. It is more personal and homey than inns or hotels.
Too Good To Be True
Listen to your instincts. If a business opportunity sounds to good to be true, it probably is. Phrases like "Make thousands of dollars a week." or "Earn money while you sleep." are good indications that the opportunity is actually a scam or a pyramid scheme.
Baking To Order
If you enjoy baking, why not earn money at it?
Bake cookies/cakes/pies and sell to Hostess of Home Parties for their guests.
Sell to someone putting together baby or wedding showers! Expand with the little sandwiches and punch for the entire party.
