While it is possible to start your own business working out of your home, don't expect to sit around in your jammies and have thousands of dollars just roll in.

Most of the "opportunities" are some kind of scam. Ignore all those big bucks, real easy, no experience offers. There all rips offs. They just take up front money.

There are tons of multi level marketing schemes. It isn't product that you sell, it signing others up and selling motivational sales materials.

My brother laid out about $5K to start a business. He spent a couple months thoroughly researching the concept to make sure there was a real customer base. He check 3 or 4 different distributors, making careful comparison of what type of equipment, training, pricing, etc. He even had video tapes from several different companies -- drove me crazy making me watch them.

He then got out and drummed up business. He advertised, set up a website, joined organizations, worked out referral deals with related businesses. 5 years later, he isn't bringing in millions but he lives quite comfortably (bought and remodeled a house) and works on his own schedule.

The moral of the story is that if you do your homework, and put effort into it, you can be your own boss, but don't expect to get rich overnight.

I sell herbalife products and do great and have a great team and coaches. And best of all its a lot of fun and you dont every have to leave your computer if you choose not to. You will need some start up money because it is a business and not a job and all businesses cost money to start. If your interested in seeing what we have to offer and you think you would qualify go to www.starturhomebiz.net. If you have the money and the desire to own your own business and work from home then I really think you should see what we have to offer. Just remember you do need some start up capital. Its not to much though and you make it back in about a month during your training process. Hope this helps and I look forward to you joining our team!

Oh and it is safe if you put your heart into it and gift it some effort. Everyone wants money for free and the only way to get that is to win the lottery or something. I do very well at my business and I know people doing well over 150k now a year or more! Good Luck on what ever you choose!

I am like most and have tried many things. Not just home based but owned my own cafe' and a Spinning studio. Being a business owner is way to much work. I am now involved with a company called Mona Vie. Love the product have seen amazing results in everyone that has used it. USDA has given the main berry, the acai' berry, an ORAC score of 1027. No other fruit comes close to this. I have doctors, Chiropractors, Pastors, Missionaries, and everyone in between on this product and they love it. If you want to be a part of a company that is awesome and markets a product that can change lives, take a look at www.monavie.com. If it interests you then email me at christinpanin@yahoo.com.

Your Travel Biz is an excellent home-based business opportunity and it has lots of perks. Of course, with any home based business you'll get tax benefits, but because YTB is a Travel Agency - you can write off travel. It also has great earning potential, health benefits and more. I highly recommend it. Check out my site at www.joysvacations.biz

You have to find something that you are already interested in. Something that excites you! It might be a companies products, owners,compensation plan, ways to make an income. I urge you to look at all of this and check with the BBB before making a decision. I went through all of this in March of 2007 , after an injury forced me to work from home.What I found has worked for me and I invite you to check it out. I hope this helped!! Tam

Before you begin any you should do some homework.

First, don't listening to any company about how to be successful. If you listen to your company's approach, you will have no friends, your family will disown you and your business will not grow. I know, because that's what I did. You need to determine your target market and develop a marketing plan.

This is what I did after reading the article The 7 Great Lies of Network Marketing. Read it and you'll see why. I've downloaded the article to my website www.chrisandpatricia.info for you to view for free.

Regardless of what company you choose, read this first.

Great Question.. and as you may have already found out, there is just too many companies out there.

I too was looking for a way to supplement my income so after careful researching I decided to join a company called Global Domains International. Their website is really easy and most of the marketing is done for you. You can sell any domain to anyone that may need it, not only WS but all of the other ones.

The best thing about GDI was that I did not have to do any direct selling and the cost was almost nothing. I currently have some team members that reside in Australia, UK, India, All over the United States, all over South and Central America, so this business is truly global. There is a 7 day free trial period but then after that is just $10.00... 10.. not even enough to take a friend to the movies. Most sites will require you to have a credit card to join, GDI doesn't, they have partnered up with Paypal to provide and easier and safer process of their members payments.

At first I was skeptical but now I am just amazed on how easy it is, I am not promising you riches over night, but with some time and dedication anything is possible. Take a few minutes and take a look at our presentation, or anyone that is reading this... take a few minutes and listen to what we have to offer. You won't regret it.

Feel free to contact me with any questions or concerns you may have.

Talk to you soon.

Sincerely,

Isra.
