3.) Success Tip of the Week

Forums – the best place to start

One of the biggest turning points since we began Internet
marketing has been our discovery of the online forums (or
discussion groups or bulletin boards as they are also
called).

There are 4 major reasons why people use forums

1) You can get free advice. For example ask about any
aspect of marketing ask for opinions about aproduct before
purchasing or about a business opportunity or affiliate
program you plan to join ask for a site review

2) You can discover new products, ideas, tips, tools

3) You can make contact with others, and possibly set up
joint ventures. You will find many helpful people and many
of the top names posting at forums.

4) Site promotion.

When you make postings you can include your signature or a
link to your site. If you have provided helpful answers or
useful information readers ‘may’ decide to visit your site.

A simple search on Google will bring up thousands of Forums.

How to Stay Focused on Your Home Business Goals
Stone Evans, The Home Biz Guy
http://www.HomeBusinessTips.com

When you are the owner of a home business, you will find
hundreds of distractions that vie for your time, energy and
focus.

Common distractions include: children, family, friends,
neighbors, pets, phone calls, mail, household chores, video
games, television, neighborhood children, visitors, and so
many more.

As an owner of a home based business, you must always
remember your purpose in bringing your profession home.
What was your reason for wanting to own a home business?
Was your goal to work from home so that you can share in
the lives of your children? Was your goal to be out from
under the rule of a tyrannical boss? Was your goal to have
the freedom to work when it is convenient for you? Was your
goal to make tons of money working for yourself?

Here’s a few good tips that will help you stay focused on
your home business:

TIP #1: Whatever your reason for going out on your own, you
must keep your reason in the forefront of your mind. If you
forget your reason for starting your own home business, you
will not be working for yourself for long. It is far too
easy to let circumstance drive your activities — and when
circumstance is in the driver’s seat, you are more likely
to crash and burn.

TIP #2: Remember — your own business is a lot like a real
job. Some people go to work to play, some go to socialize,
and others — most often those who are paid in a
commission or tip environment — go to work to work and to
make money. When you work for yourself, your salary is
directly proportional to your productivity. Therefore,
wouldn’t it make sense to stay focused on getting as much
done in as short of a period as possible?

Go to work to work and to make money. Leave playtime and
recreation for when your workday has ended.

TIP #3: When you are dealing with family in the course of
your workday, it is important to schedule your activities
as much as possible. With small children, you must take
time when you must, but you should also work hard to make
sure you dedicate a specific number of hours to your
workday.

With older children, it is much easier to tell them that
you will be working between the hours of x and y. Your
children and your friends must understand that certain
hours of your day are devoted to the activities of your
business.

TIP #4: Don’t permit your friends and extended family to
run over you. Many people get the blind idea that if one
works from home then they are not actually working.

Well-meaning people may try to fill your doorway to bring
advice about getting a real job. Others may simply believe
that if you are at home, then you are fair game for
chitchat and socialization.

You must stand firm. You must make certain your friends and
family understands that when you are working, then you ARE
working! If they wish to socialize with you, then they need
to do it during the hours that are not dedicated to your
home business.

You are the only one who can stand up for you. Your friends
and family will seldom be able to appreciate your
dedication to your home business, unless you make the
effort to make sure that they have the same respect for
your business that you do.

TIP #5: You should allot a certain portion of your day to
email and to regular mail. For example, allot one hour in
the morning and one hour in the afternoon to handling your
written communications.

Unless you dedicate certain times to the handling of these
communications, you will soon find yourself on the downward
slope of decreased productivity.

TIP #6: When you find yourself spending too much time doing
non-productive activities, then you should seriously
consider finding a third-party service provider who will
assist you in those non-profitable business activities.

As an example, you might be in the mail-order business. You
might believe that your time is best spent writing ad copy
and setting up your advertising, but you find yourself
spending far too much time taking care of your books to
take care of your advertising in the manner that you
should. In this event, it might make more sense to hire a
bookkeeper to handle your financial records for you.

CONCLUSION: In the end, the success of your home business
is entirely and completely reliant upon you and the
decisions that you make.

You had your reasons for deciding to start your own home
based business. You must always keep your reasons in the
forefront of your mind. You must always be able to rely
upon your own self and your dedication to the success of
your business.

Your friends and family might be annoyed that they cannot
come visit upon their own whim, but when success comes to
you and your business, they will better appreciate you for
putting your foot down when necessary.

Success is within your reach, if only you can stay focused
on your goals. You must decide to reach for your goals, and
then, you must have the discipline necessary to reach them.
