Are there any legit home businesses that I could get into?

Answer 1

Think of all your interests & ask yourself if any of those could be expanded into a business. Just keep in mind...what's your expertise? What are your interests? What could you imagine yourself doing?

By researching the prospect of starting your own business -- what it entails, what you need to know, helpful hints, etc -- you'll feel better prepared to take that plunge.

I found some book titles that are relevant to your specific question:

* 101 Internet Businesses You Can Start from Home by Susan Sweeney
* The Best Home Businesses for the 21st Century by Paul Edwards
* Selling Online: How to Become a Successful E-Commerce Merchant by Jim Carroll
* I Could Do Anything If I Only Knew What It Was: How to Discover What You Really Want and How to Get It by Barbara Sher
* I Don't Know What I Want, But I Know It's Not This: A Step-by-Step Guide to Finding Gratifying Work by Julie Jansen
* The Best Internet Businesses You Can Start by Marian Betancourt
* The Shoestring Entrepreneur's Guide to Internet Start-Ups by Robert Spiegel
* Making a Living Without a Job : Winning Ways For Creating Work That You Love by Barbara Winter

I also posted some article links in the source box.

Hope that helps! I wish you much success & happiness in all your ventures!

If you want to start a legit business here are some tips and recommendations....

You do not need to invest alot you can then check out and research the various types of franchises out there and see which one suits you. Entrepreneur magazine and others of this type should lead you in the right direction. For example there is this one magazine called Success from Home.

Let me recommend what a lot experts have been saying. Get into Network Marketing. The reasons being are:

1- The Training - The good companies work with organization who will help you develop you knowledge in all aspects of your business and you before the product or service. This means time and energy will be invested on developing you and a person and business-owner vs pushing you to move products. Not to say that you shouldn't be moving products, that's why you're in business.

2- Developing a Network - In order to have a strong and prosperous business you need repeat business. These organizations of business owners will help you in the developing strong networks so that your business keeps moving forward.

3- Global Opportunities - No more do you have to limit your self to just you neighborhood with the advent of the Internet you now have access to a global marketplace. The larger companies and organizations can help you in expanding you business into the international arena if the opportunity arises for you.

4- Low Risk - Most companies have a low start-up investment
which means that you can work it on a part-time level until you are making enough to go full-time. So you don't have to quit your job or quit school. Also the highly reputable ones have a money-back guarantee.

Points -
1- You may of heard for people failing to succeed in this type of business most of it is attributed to some people fail to treat it like a business.

2-A business is a business and you won't get anything out of it if you don't put anything in it.

3- As a very wealthy man once told me "You have the ability to do want you want when you want". Be careful of who you take advice from,check to see how they are economically. Are they where you want to be or are they even going in that direction?


So keep up in doing your research and the best is yet to come.


My recommendation is Quixtar. They're a 6-billion dollar company. I've dealt with some of the people before. Lovely people. What I like is that they have a wide variety of products and services to offer so a person is not limited to just one or two things. Also they also seem to be on the cutting edge of product technology.
