Timmins residents work in house.
I as most of you know life in Timmins, Ontario.
I live in a great area and love the fact that it is so quite and quaint. It wasn't always this way. I have worked several jobs in this "little" town.
Several friends of mine have asked me what made me decide to begin working from home so I thought I would explain it for anyone who wants to hear about it ;)
Hey, where are you going? Don't hit the close button, you might learn something or at the very least be entertained.....get your hand off the mouse ;)...Somewhere near the end I am going to give you the name of the "Superstar" of Marketing. The "King" of the internet and the "Man" who will make sure you succeed if you give him the chance. You don't want to miss this or you don't want to succeed online now do you?
A few years back I was working for a company that handled in bound customer service. I won't mention the name ahem Tele ahem tech and anyway I was slowly going down hill.
I tried to keep happy by joining teams and committee's but it was to no avail. Honestly the stress of that job for 10 something an hour wasn't worth it.
Around 2005 I decided it was time to work for myself. I was hitting road blocks everywhere. Myself and a friend of mine wrote an ebook on Firefox and through it up on clickbank and waited for the money to roll in. Boy, were we green, we did almost no advertising and almost no real promotion and never answered any emails. We were totally clueless. Now that old site is some redirect search engine which annoys me but hey, it was an invaluable lesson.
As I was learning and working and learning and doing internet stuff all night my live in girlfriend at the time was no help either. I remember one day she told me to give up on the pipe dream and that no one makes money online, then she bought crap from eBay.....Got me thinking.
I have said it before and will say it again. Negative people are never successful because they are negative.
End of story.
Moving along....
I decided to spend 8 months doing nothing but learning and reading and lurking in forums just reading and taking notes. I found myself always being so happy for other people when I read about their success and this is vital. You see when someone else is successful and you get mad or jealous you are actually pushing your own success away. You must be happy for those people and the universe will reward you in kind. Sounds crazy but it's true.
I run several websites and several blogs but this one is my baby. This is my first blog, so like a first born child I do spend more time on it.
Funny thing is that this blog makes me the least amount of money and IO spend the most amount of time on it. Mainly because it is my reader's blog, where I give tips and tricks and links to those that bother to show up.
To become successful working from home you MUST do the following:
1. Educate yourself. You have to keep up dated on how your particular business changes, especially now with the economy. Think about it this way, does a doctor become a doctor after high school? Nope it takes years of learning and hands on practice and then comes the huge paycheck, they also have seminars....let me repeat that word "seminars" to make sure they are up to date on the latest technologies and cures etc.
2. You must understand that like any job you start out making little money but as your performance gets better so does your paycheck. It's no different when you are your own boss.
3. You must have a mentor or mentors to guide you. This is paramount to any success. Once you have your niche then go to google or yahoo and type in your niche plus forum and get involved. What you learn in forums is better than anything you will learn on your own. Personally I think all forums should be at least 1 dollar per day. Then you know who is serious and who isn't.
Which brings me to my final point:
You must be willing to invest at the very least 20 - 30 percent of your earnings back into your business. You have to keep your sites live and your advertising going.
There are so many places to get good ads it isn't funny. I highly recommend using google adwords but if you aren't that familiar with them find someone who is.
Should you need a fast track to success then there is only ONE person. One man's team who will guide you to the Money. It's not me, I am a mere shadow compared to this man's genius and those on his team.
That man is Howie Schwartz.
He gives you thousands of dollars of free tips and tricks it's scary. He is the best mentor for any newbie who truly wants to succeed.
Here's the link to see what he can do for you. Make sure your speaker's are on.
