“Everyone loves to be inspired, right? From childhood heroics
to modern day political super heroes… We look towards the
strong to give us the strength to move forward faster each day.

But what if I were to tell you that the power within, isn’t
that far away? What if you had everything you need within you,
encrusted within your DNA, lies the gene of powerful inspiration.

An inspiration so powerful that it’s empowering strength will
rock the earth around you?

This is a powerful concept and you’ve been given the privilege
to gain ‘early bird access’ to this life changing DNA.

Access is f’ree, so don’t wait.

It just crossed me how important reading is.

I was never a big fan of reading when I was young. My family often made fun of me because I only started reading when I was 9 (according them them ). Now, I read almost everyday – online.We all read for different reasons. Some for pleasure, some to pass the time, some to act busy at work.
For me, I read because I love to see things from a different person’s perspective in life. Its interesting how the humans have a common genetic makeup and body physiology but yet, the way our mind interpret things can be so different. I won’t deny that reading has helped shaped me to be the person I am today.

Now why am I talking about reading out of a sudden? Truth is, I wouldn’t be this crazy over home businesses if i didn’t read all the amazing stories of how people live fulfilling lives doing things they love. If you have yet to find your passion -whether home business or not,  just start reading everything! You never know what you might fall in love with

Even the folks from the golden era have started embracing technology. Today i’m gonna talk about one whose none other than my lovely mum- Deborah.

She started a blog to sell away some of my old, unworn clothes. Some are still of good quality.

In a weeks time from the announcement of her blog, she has already made 3 sales. Not bad for someone just starting out at the internet! It just goes to show that if you have good, honest content, people will be more likely to respond, because they can relate to it.

To sum it up – The site adopts a unique approach to selling Tees. In contrast to your typical hot girl selling clothes on a blogshop, a mom sells her sons old clothes which have been cluttering up the closet. Payment is via electronic transfer of funds to her bank account and she will deliver the clothes by post. She imbues a straight-to-the-point, aunty-talk style into her blog posts with a tinge of humour.

How can you apply this to your home-business?

People make decisions based on emotions, not logic. If your home business can reach them at a emotional level, such as my mum’s attempt of clearing her son’s clothes, you will be more likely to make a sale rather than to just state plain facts to them. Try to write a story about your blog, why you are doing it and talk a little about yourself, that way, people can somehow relate to you.

I was just talking to my friend Flora.  Studying part time as an architect in the UK, she recently started a site for Fashionistas – with a goal of bringing fashion awareness to the masses. Basically, her blog acts as the middleman (or middlewoman) for fashion blogs in Malaysia, displaying the goods of different boutiques so shoppers can have a wide catalogue of clothes and jewelry to choose from.

I asked her, “So how does your site generate revenue?” She told me that she plans on selling ad space. That is a good idea for her business, as her site would be able to draw advertisers who want to promote their fashion products to the masses.

I see alot of potential in her website. I’m not trying to promote her site or anything. But over here i would like to make an illustration of good innovation. There are many ways one can monetize through his/her blog. Selling ad space was a good idea, but she could also profit from Affiliate Marketing. Promote other fashionista’s products to get a cut. Also, she can start a mailing list providing fashion tips. Then she could sell products to her subscribers. You see, there’s more than one way to make money and you (yes, you) should really take advantage of every single way you can profit from your website.
