I’ve recently noticed a trend in the “Making Money Online” scheme. Back in the old (offline) days whenever we come across any “Get Rich Quick” schemes we would ignore them almost immediately. But lately i’ve noticed more and more Internet Marketers creating products such as: Make $100-A-Day via the “affiliate marketing software” which basically helps you get rich the lazy man method. In my opinion, there’s no point trying to get rich doing something that doesn’t provide any value to your society or yourself! Most of these “Get-Rich-Quick-Schemes” online won’t work unless you dedicate your life to using these unscrupulous methods (which in fact if you dedicate your life to almost any other job you would make money as well.) What’s important is we are passionate about what we do and bring value by activitely contributing to our audience – not by making money through “full-proof-systems”.

Guys and girls – if you agree with me, all I plea is that you will build products that you are enthusiastic and passionate about, and most important of good quality to benefit our customers. Always remember although we are selling online, it’s no different from the offline world. What do you guys think?

Hey guys, it’s good to have a tracking program for your home business sites so you can track where most of your traffic is coming from and cater your business to your audience. One good program (which i’m using for this site as well) is Google Analytics. Just so you know, its much more than just a simple hit counter . The video above teaches you how you can use Google Analytics to analyze the sources of your site traffic and to optimize your website. For example, what I realized is that most of my traffic comes from social networking sites like Facebook, Twitter etc. Which means I really need to work on my Search Engine Optimization or build on other sources of traffic for my site. Neat huh?

Let’s face it guys. Why waste time fighting over a niche full with competition when you can be in a highly profitable one with virtually no competition ?

I swear to you guys… I’ve never seen anything like this before in internet history. Okay, to give you the lowdown on Fusionology, it’s a new niche which combines the three biggest markets out there – Internet Marketing, Home Based Businesses and Personal Development. Since we’re talking about the 3 biggest markets out there, which means these markets are HIGHLY PROFITTABLE.

This is basically the easiest way to cash in from the comfort of your home. No competition + highly profittable niche = Easy Money. You won’t have to battle with the gurus like David Deangelo (Personal Development) or Milk Filsaime (Internet Marketing). You can finally start your own online business empire from home with ease.

Okay, i’m not gonna sound like a salesman anymore. Just wanted to let you guys on to something juicy. Go and check it out yourself here.

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

Ok guys, here’s the deal.

As proof that you all that you can escape the 9-5 and live a life of comfort from home, I will be the living online experiment that if I can do it, so can you.

Therefore, I am issuing a challenge to myself that by 17 November 2009, (the end of my term at the hospital) I will quit my 8-5 job and pursue my internet home business hobby full time. If i do not achieve my goal by this date, I will shut down this site.

Its going to be quite a challenge balancing an 8-5 job and working online at night. But it just goes to show if I can accomplish this given the limited amount of time i have in a day, so can you.

Dear readers, please support my effort. All I ask is that you follow my journey on this blog. (comments on blog posts would be helpful too, would love to hear from you guys).

Right! Let the home business movement begin! =)

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.

For those of you venturing into Internet Marketing, I’m sure you’d have come across the term Private Label Rights.

So what the heck is a Private Label Right (PLR) ? Sounds like a porn site.

No, silly. Millions of bucks are made through PLR. Basically, if you own a PLR product, you can claim the product as your own, you can edit it anyhow you like, and the best part – You can say that it was made by you. This is really good news for those who don’t know how to make your own E-book or product.

Great! So where do I find PLR products?

As far as I know, Edmund is a guru at PLR and he offers top quality products for yo to expand your business. You can also get free PLR products at free give-aways which you can claim as your own.

This sounds too good to be true! My own product without having to lift a finger?

Slow down, cowboy. Because it is a PLR product, this means that ANYBODY can have the same product as you. Therefore, you need to change/edit the content, spice up the product abit before you wanna sell it. Also, most PLR products are of average quality and lacks your personal style. Thats your job! Change and tweak the PLR to become YOUR product, then you can sell it or offer it for free to build your mailing list – whatever suits your needs.

…for the lack of updates.

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.

Me trying to model a shirt from my friend’s shop saltyskins.com

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.

How else can you increase profits from your home business? Think about it. Try applying all the techniques from my free report to see if you can improve on your business model.

I have got something important to tell you today. Pay attention closely.

As you know, previously I led a rather unfulfilling life. Working 8-5 shifts 6 DAYS A WEEK at the local hospital pharmacy. I’m sure you’ve heard of the horrors of demanding customers, rude doctors, mental patients, work hazards (Its a hospital food goodness sake!). You get the deal.

-

I asked myself: “Is this all my life has to offer me??”. I couldn’t even take a holiday break for more than 2 days. When my friends  tell me all about their exciting journeys traveling the world… I felt like punching a brick wall. Have you ever been in the same situation? I hated my job. I hated the fact that despite studying hard for 4 years with many sleepless nights just to get that darned piece of paper, I was stuck in a lousy, dead end job paying me less than what I should be earning. One day, when I was having dinner with my brother after basketball, I asked him how much was he earning. His next words literally blew my mind away.

He was earning thousands of US dollars SITTING in his pyjamas. To give you an idea, double my salary just sitting at home. And that was just his autopilot income.

-

Enough was enough.

I decided to take action. I decided that I wanted to start a profitable business from the comfort of my home. I never wanted to sweat in the aircond-less pharmacy dealing with patients coughing in my face day after day and getting sweared at by doctors who didn’t know any better than me.

After months of experimenting and coaching from my brother and my friend (both experts at internet marketing), i’ve finally mastered the blue print to starting a home business. The good news is, I understand a lot of people, day after day, are going through the same frustrations as I am. Go to college, get a degree, and work for the rest of your life. Others might not be as lucky. There are victims of the recession that  find it hard to even put bread on the table!  I’m not saying that conventional working environment is bad. But ask yourself this…  Do you want a better life for yourself?

If Yes is your answer, then I suggest you take action immediately. Download the Blueprint To Starting A Home Business. It will change your life.
