WAHM - Need to supplement your income?

February 10, 2010 | 1 Comment

The Internet is a blessing to work -at-home jobs for  moms who want to earn money to supplement their family%u2019s income. And one of the best ways for any mom to earn money online is through affiliate marketing which is an easy and proven money-making endeavor on the Internet.

Affiliate marketing is ideal for work -at-home jobs for  moms because it is a very flexible way to make money online. Moms can do it any time of the day like at night when their children are already asleep or when all household chores are done. And unlike having a full time job, affiliate marketing won%u2019t require 8 hours of your time every day, 5 days a week, leaving you enough time for your family and for the things you really want to do.  Another good thing about affiliate marketing is that to do it you don%u2019t need any special equipment aside from your computer and Internet connection. You also don%u2019t need any special skills or even a background in selling or business if you want to enter affiliate marketing.

Being a stay-at-home mom is not an easy thing to be, especially if you have more than 2 children. In fact, some people say that being a stay-at-home mom is like holding two jobs. This is why the ideal money-making activity for stay-at-home moms is something that is flexible and wouldn%u2019t require them to work for most parts of their day. And this is where affiliate marketing comes in. Affiliate marketing is a business that can be set on autopilot. Initially, you would have to spend time and effort in setting up your affiliate marketing business. But after the mechanisms are in place, you would only need to spend several hours every week in tending to your online business.

To those not familiar with it, affiliate marketing involves selling the products or services of other people in exchange for a commission from sales made. Many people have already become successful with affiliate marketing and are earning thousands of dollars from it every month. The flexibility of affiliate marketing coupled with the relatively low capital needed to enter this kind of business makes it a very ideal money-making endeavor for moms who want to spend time at home with their families rather than in an office.

Moms have a choice of being a part-time affiliate marketer and earn a few hundred dollars to add to the household budget or a full-time marketer and earn a significant income that would afford them greater financial security. Ultimately, what affiliate marketing offers to moms is the opportunity to make real money online while at the same time allowing them to spend quality time with their children and families.

Under the Radar - Earning money at home

February 2, 2010 | 2 Comments

Earning Money at home

Know how you can scoop up some snow and pack it into a ball, and then roll that ball of snow on the ground....and it keeps getting bigger?

Then, you could get that snowball rolling downhill and it would pick up speed and traction, and start getting bigger on its own?

Guess what?  Online marketing is exactly that way.

The more you work, the more you create, the more you get online, the bigger your snowball gets.

The snowball effect.

Things start to take on a life of their own and work for YOU when YOU are NOT working.... or when you are working on something else.

Which, in the beginning, working on something else is exactly what you should be doing while you're waiting for the snowball effect to take place.

For people like us, who sit at home and are a one-woman/one-man show, internet marketing success is not the result of ONE anything.

No ONE article, no ONE Squidoo lens, no ONE website, no ONE blog...

No ONE anything - period.

It is the result of everything working together, building up traction, and snowballing.

So, as I said, I had no money.

How in the world could I make snowballs if I didn't have any snow?

So, I had to figure out how to make it snow for free.

I had to figure out a way to make it snow so I could somehow bend down and scoop up some of those flakes and begin to build a snowball.

Ya know, looking back, I always wonder why I didn't just give up.

I had NO CLUE how to do this... and I had NO MONEY to make it happen for me.  I didn't have the money to buy things, let alone the money to spend on learning my mistakes and learning the basics.

But deep inside I knew I could make it happen.

Overnight?

Nooooooooo.....

There is nothing "overnight" about a business you don't understand yet, you don't know how to implement, AND you haven't taken massive action to even BEGIN to understand and implement.

If you want a chance at overnight riches, please.... stop reading my words right now because I am NOT the person you need to be listening to.  Then, go buy a lottery ticket.  That's the only chance of overnight riches that I can think of  =)

Ok, back on topic...

To me, a true "snowball" was something I owned.

But owning something meant BUYING something and I didn't have the financial means to do that (let alone the knowledge to do it).

So, off to make it snow - for free.

That, ladies and gentlemen, is where One Week Marketing came from.

One Week Marketing is MY way of making it snow for free.  That simple little action plan was my own plan that took me a LONG time to narrow down and figure out so that I could get money coming IN - WITHOUT money going OUT.

And while money is cool (and very necessary), One Week Markting also helped me learn how the basics of the snowballs I REALLY wanted would work.

The snowballs I really wanted?

Niche websites.  Lots of them. Lots and lots of small, targeted, profitable websites.

And I HAVE a lot of them today.  Lots and lots - all thanks to the money my free snow-makers made, and the niches they uncovered for me, and the resources those steps of each campaign created for me.

I made it snow.

One Week Marketing made it snow for me.  Well, naturally it was my effort that made it snow, but the action plan itself gave me the steps to take to get that snow falling.

Many of you reading this are already there.

You made it snow for yourself, too...and I am SO proud of you!

You've made a bunch of One Week Marketing campaigns... you've got money coming in, you've uncovered niches that work for you....

And now YOU are ready for snowballs.

THAT is why I am writing this.

There are so many of you out there that are currently in a position I was once in....and I want to help you grow past it.

It's possible that YOU are ready to start your own collection of snowballs.  If you're like I was a few years ago, you totally understand that OWNING websites is the true path to passive income success online.

The concept of it seems so simple, doesn't it?  Buy a domain name, make a website, get traffic, move on.

But again, if you're like I was a few years ago, once you get ready to actually START that process, the simple steps become full of details you don't understand.  One roadblock after another.  Oh, I've so been there.

In fact, learning the process of creating niche websites with WordPress had such an effect on me that I decided to make an entire site to help others learn and push thru the learning curve of all those roadblock details.

It took me forever...loads of coffee...to learn each little detail that needs to be done in order for those sites to be effective and profitable.  I realized it sure would be nice to have at least the basics of those details all in one place online.

That's why I created 6StepNicheSites.com - to walk others thru the details, show them where help was found, share the resources I found and that I use.  And all that info is there for free in hopes that others will find it and say, "Oh thank goodness!  It's all in one place!"

And maybe, just maybe, there will be others that read that info...and follow it...and then realize that creating snowballs is something they CAN do....and WILL do - over and over.

I'm not the only one that can - and DOES - make it work for them to reach their financial goals.

You can, too!


Yes, creating snowballs can be time-consuming.  In fact, if you're not familiar with all the things that can go in to it, it can be down-right hard, too.  But ya gotta do the tough stuff to get to the money stuff - marketing your snowballs and get them to gain traction so they get to work for YOU.

But it's definitely "do-able".  Later I'll tell ya a way to shortcut some of the "tough stuff" and get straight to the "money stuff".  I've learned a great short-cut from someone very, very successful in this method.

I love learning new things - ESPECIALLY when they save me time and headaches!

Anyway...we'll get to all that later in this Under The Radar series.


It's time for me to wrap up for the day.


A Great Big Thank You!

One of the very best things about being PotPieGirl is that all of you have helped ME learn that I am not the only one who came to work online under the circumstances I was under.

Broke and Clueless

I felt like I was the only one in the world who had to figure out how to make it snow.

I felt like I was the only one in the world that didn't know how to make a link, or what FTP was, or any of that mumbo-jumbo.


I felt like I was the only one who struggled constantly with the little details that kept me from doing the "money stuff".

Now I know that I am NOT the only one who feels or felt that way...whew!

I'm not some freak of nature....thank goodness!  lol!

I'm not alone... and neither are YOU!

Thank you to all of you that asked me questions when you were afraid you'd look "stupid" for asking (trust me, I had the same questions, too).

Thank you to all of you that answered MY questions and didn't make me feel stupid for asking.

We're not alone.

And when we learn together and support each other...we are stronger and better....and closer to our goals.  That's what I LOVE about Wealthy Affiliate - the community support and help.  Working online can cause you to feel very alone - it's nice to know you're NOT alone and have a community to answer your questions and help you work through your problems to find a solution.

Priceless!

Undar the Radar Series by PotPieGirl

Running a serious by PotPieGirl....

Day 1
One week Marketing

Ya know, when I first thought about working online, I thought of quietly working at home passively making money.

Passively.

Quietly.

Notice I didn't say "effortlessly"  ;)

I imagined building a portfolio of money-making websites and various income streams that would work for me on auto-pilot after the bulk of my hands-on work was long done.

Way back then, I could close my eyes and imagine what it would be like to wake up in the morning and check online to see that I made money.

-- I could imagine going to the mailbox and getting checks for work that was long done.

-- I could imagine taking the day off to spend with my hubby, family, and/or friends....and still making money.

-- I could imagine being able to make money by MY rules and on MY schedule.

-- I could imagine how proud I would feel of these things *I* created and the income that was generated by MY hands...and how good it would feel to create the income I wanted and the lifestyle I wanted.

BUT - there was one really really big problem back then.

I HAD NO CLUE HOW TO GET THERE!

I read somewhere that it is very important to choose your lifestyle BEFORE you choose your business - or else your business will determine your lifestyle.

I took that to heart.

And to this day, it is still in the back of my mind as I make any business decision.

I want income streams that *I* run, not that run ME.

So, way back then, I knew what I wanted.  I could see it, I could feel it, I could imagine it down to the finest detail.

Now, three years later, I have accomplished it.

Now, for most of you that know me, you know that PotPieGirl is anything but quiet and passive  =)

But "PotPieGirl" is one small part of Jennifer - or of Jennifer's business.

Jennifer is always building passive income streams and assets and resources.

Always.

While I have achieved my original goals and things I imagined for myself, I have not COMPLETED my over-all goal.

What I'd really like is to someday be able to choose to turn the computer off and know that I am financially free.

I can imagine only checking on my online business for maybe a total of 2-3 hours in a week.  Just enough time to check in, make sure all is ok, and get back to my life (whatever that is that I choose at that moment).

I love being PotPieGirl.  It suits me.  I love to help and interact with others.  I love to share things I learn and figure out.

But being PotPieGirl is not a passive income stream.  She is a VERY active lady!

While I have no plans to quit being PotPieGirl - I do want to know that at any given time I have given myself the financial option to do so if I ever choose to.

The freedom to make choices....not the burden of having choices made FOR you.

Does that make sense to you?

I'm almost there.  So close I can touch it and feel it.

I've been missing pieces....actually, missing some "shortcuts" that I have finally figured out AND I have given myself permission to TAKE these shortcuts.

There's nothing wrong with shortcuts.  For me, it was a mentality of "I have to do everything myself".

Where I got that mentality, I'm not sure...lol

One thing that sticks out in my mind is when one successful business owner of a construction company told me -

"If you're gonna send your crew to do a job, you better darn well know how to do that job yourself!"

..and I know my Grandmother is also in the back of my mind.  I can't count how many times I heard her say...

"If you want something done right, do it yourself!"

I do feel it is important to know how to do basics on your own.

First off, knowledge is power, pure and simple.

But, also, if you don't know how to do it yourself, or at least the basics of how it should be done, then how in the world will you know if someone else did it right FOR you?

Always take time to learn the basics and have that solid understanding of the project at hand.

But here's the thing...

If there are 20 steps to success of a project, why NOT take a shortcut to skip the first 15 steps and save yourself the pain of the learning curve and all that effort?

Time is the most valuable resource and asset we have - period.

Once you know the basics, it is a BAD use of your most valuable resource (your time) to keep doing the basics for yourself.

Why it took me so long to figure that out, I have no idea.

But I'd like to maybe help YOU figure that out much more quickly than I did.

So, in the upcoming few days, I'd like to share with you my "under the radar" way of making money online... the way that is leading me right to my ultimate financial and lifestyle goals.

I will be talking about what I consider to be the 4 most important parts of an online business (or any business for that matter):

1. Snowballs

2. Assets

3. Resources

4. ShortCuts

Thank you for spending your time with me!

I'll see ya tomorrow!

Easy ways to make money online

January 9, 2010 | Leave a Comment

If you don’t think that there are easy ways to make money onlinethen think again. There are many individuals who have already become millionaires from doing business on the Internet. Then there are those who, though they are not millionaires yet, are making a stable income from the Internet and have been able to quit their day jobs. You must know that people have been earning from the Internet ever since it was first introduced 15 years ago. So earning money from the Internet is not a new concept as some people believe. Truth is, it is much easier to earn money from the Internet in those days because of the presence of less competition in almost all niches. Now, almost all niches have been tapped and the competition online is getting tougher every year.

This is not to say though that it is impossible to earn money from the Internet nowadays. It is just a matter of being able to recognize a hot niche that is just waiting to be tapped. To find niches, you probably need to do some market research. Once you have selected a niche then it is time to think of what value-added services or product you can offer to this niche. You can either develop your own product and sell it to your market or you can sell other people’s products or services through affiliate marketing.

If you are not familiar with how affiliate marketing works then let me give a general description of the process. In affiliate marketing, you sign up for an affiliate program wherein you will be given a link. You will put this link in your site, blog or email then encourage people to click on it. If the person who clicks the link eventually buys the product or service being sold, then you get a percentage or a commission of the total sale. Affiliate commissions go from 30% to as high as 90% of the total cost of the product or service.

Affiliate marketing presents a very big opportunity for individuals who are looking to earn huge amounts of money online because of the fact that there are literally thousands of individuals and companies who are looking for people to sell their products for them.

Many experts believe that affiliate marketing is the easiest way to make big money online and rightfully so. No other method of making money online offers the flexibility and the earning potential that affiliate marketing does.
