Examine Company Websites – Sure Way To Job Searching Success

Being in between jobs can be counterproductive, frustrating and discouraging. If you are out of job, it is difficult to keep yourself back on track. It is not easy to search for a job if you do not know where to start. A local newspaper employment ad never goes out of style even in this time and age, but the information is insufficient. So if your looking for a job, finding the right tools and the best approaches are very important. Nowadays, the internet is the most efficient tool that can easily help out in your job searching. It gives you access to various company websites and the chance to know about them. If companies can build their businesses upon online websites, then so are you in getting better job opportunities and greater chances of exploring your chosen career.

Job searching is a task full of hard work, so keep with it and avoid feeling anxious. If you are planning on conducting an effective job search, be well prepared. As a job seeker, one must have good information about the company as part of developing job hunting skills as many job seekers do not realize the importance of job searching skills to be a necessity. It is very significant to ascertain which job search schemes are productive.

So, by basically going through the search, one information may lead you to another. It can provide you some things about employment or career opportunities. For example, if you want to pursue a retailing career, it can provide give you where their retail locations are, the type of products they are selling, as well as the kind of customers they are targeting. In a mouse click, your search can give you what open positions are currently available within your area, what the job entails and the requirements, or even the salary. These are pieces of information that you can’t find in a traditional job posting. In fact, businesses, locally owned or operated, have found online websites to be a advantageous and necessary for their trade. You may even find it hard to believe, but the fact is, you can now submit a job application and upload your resume online!

So, after gathering all these information you may find useful later on when you decide to apply, the job searching process begins with self-assessment: being aware of what your goals and skills are; identifying what your values, accomplishments, experiences and interest are complemented with an understanding of what the labor market is. A well-planned job searching campaign is knowing what position you seek, what you want from a job and what you can offer the prospective employer.

Assessing yourself can be a time-consuming process, but it will give you invaluable information for easier career decision making and makes you suitable to market your background effectively. Important and desirable qualities in your career will aid you with your career goals and better satisfaction in your work. Make a list of these qualities and rank it by order of priority; for example, job security, professional status, variety of task to accomplish, financial rewards and advancement. You may have a lot to list, but it is advisable that you identify your interests, like your career dreams and choices and how you spend your time usually lead to a better skill development.

Being cognizant of your valued skills and verbally citing its usefulness can be a key to a successful job hunting since these are things you do very well. In describing them be very brief and be able to exhibit a defined meaning by referring to actual experiences. Demonstrating your skill levels, especially your transferal skills like writing and communicating effectively or computer literacy, may be relative to the needs of your prospective employer.

Exploring Your Career Options

After identifying your skills, values, interests and what the career demands are of these organizations, you may now search and explore the matches between them. If field options come out as very realistic and very attractive after your thorough research for probable career, then make them your job search goals. Oftentimes, they may not potentially match all your skills and they may not develop your interests and integrate your values in the system, target a career field that can completely satisfy some, if not all, of your priority needs.

Be very good in your research for employers, for they will not only give you the edge in the job competition, but this will also contribute for the purpose of deciding which employers you want most and which strategies to use to contact them. Being persistent demonstrates your interest in the job. A very good job seeker keep records and frequently maintain valuable contact information.

So get yourself organized. Set up a date and how much time you want to commit in job searching after targeting your job goals. Your efforts should be in the direction of establishing channels in the job market which can possibly open doors with other professionals in a certain field. Establish contact with them, make follow-ups and make yourself known. Once they have personal interactions with you, this may be the chance for you to get hired should there be an approriate job opening to further develop your career action plans.

Strategies To Find Job Search Success in the New Economy

I read in the news that Apple announced it has sold over five million of its new iPhone 5, just three days after its launch and to sweeten Apple’s products demand, more than 100 million of Apple’s latest operating systems devices have been updated.

Apple’s success is an important indication that the Internet has taken over the new economy. The latest trend of using social media to find job has moved to a dynamic speed. Savvy job seekers knows that they cannot solely rely on traditional means in looking for jobs.

Traditional job search includes strategies such as looking in the newspaper classified advertisements, searching through ‘help wanted’ notices on bulletin boards, going to recruitment or job agencies, and write in for jobs opportunities directly to the companies. All these traditional ways of job search involve an individual reacting to a job that has already been publicly offered.

Although, traditional methods are still necessary, creative, well-informed and socially Internet savvy job seekers will take a step further to stay ahead of their competition by creating an online presence to reach out to more prospective employers. That is because they know that more and more recruiters use the web as a place to search for talent and conduct employment background searches. This trend will set to increase over the years.

Here are 3 ways you can use social media to enhance your job search success:

1) Build your online presence on social network sites.

Make employers find you easily online and thus open doors to more job opportunities. Without an online presence, you will not appear to be as relevant as those who has and you will be passed over for more savvy applicants that have online visibility. Creating online presence include

LinkedIn- A networking tool for professional connections. Also used to recommend job candidates, industry experts and business partners. Employers use LinkedIn as a search tool to find talent, and job seekers use it to leverage their network in support of their search.
Twitter – Social networking and instant messaging that allows users to post 140- character updates. Employer can use Twitter to post for job opportunities.
Facebook – A social network that connects people, to keep up with friends and share ideas. Depending on their privacy level, some job seekers have successfully secured a job through their Facebook network.

2) Create a blog to demonstrate your expertise

Another good way to further boost your image and demonstrate your experience, expertise and passion in a particular field is to create an updated blog. Keep it professional, creative and update it with value add contents for readers. The articles that you post may include tips and advice on issues in your area of expertise, also be mindful that everything you write and post online is up for judgement.

3) YouTube and Pinterest Marketing

Internet savvy job seekers are making use of video marketing to promote themselves. This is a creative approach to job hunting that has become increasingly common in the social media arena. You could create a video resume, such as a short and traditional video that include a general rundown of your work experience, educational background and skills.

While Pinterest is not a networking platform, as it does not allow direct communication, it is becoming increasingly popular with businesses. It is a powerful tool to demonstrate your knowledge, organisational skills, and creativity to prospective employers. You can create boards which relate to specific skills-sets you have and use it as a portal to link to work you want to showcase – like an online portfolio.

4) Online Resume

In the new economy, it has changed the way employers review resumes, the Internet has also made it possible for job seekers to post their resumes online, on their own hosted web sites. This change is particular helpful to those persons whose resume presentation will be greatly enhanced by being able to take advantage of the graphics and interactive capabilities that an online resume on a personal web site can provide.

In a nutshell, in these times, a paper resume is not enough. It is essential to be creative and a well-designed electronic, or online version of your resume combined and linked to a strong social media profile, is usually ideal for a successful job search.

Fable Offers Solid Steps for Success in Business and Life

The Granite Steps is a short book, but one big on wisdom. Best of all, it is an enticing parable about a young boy without a father who is trying to make some extra money selling newspapers to help his mother and sisters. Kempton has the desire to succeed, but he doesn’t have the know-how. Fortunately, one day he meets a man, Sir Granite, who takes him under his wing and guides him. Sir Granite doesn’t seem to do much except sit around the park all day, but Kempton soon learns his new friend has a fascinating past, having had many adventures and even having been knighted by a queen; in his travels, Sir Granite has also gained a lot of wisdom and advice to offer Kempton.

The book’s title refers to the wisdom Sir Granite imparts to Kempton. The advice begins with tips on salesmanship that help Kempton become the best paperboy at the newspaper. From there, Sir Granite guides Kempton in his career choices as he outgrows selling papers and begins thinking about his career. Kempton eventually becomes interested in education and in helping children. He also falls in love, goes off to college, and begins to make the difficult life decisions that can make or break a person.

While the book begins as an innocent enough fable, by the time Kempton reaches early manhood, he starts to think he knows better than Sir Granite, and he makes some decisions that cost him dearly. I won’t give away the ending, but it’s sufficient to say the book teaches good lessons while always keeping the reader interested in the storyline.

The lessons the book offers are sprinkled throughout, each being a success principle. The first one appears when Kempton is involved in a contest to get newspaper subscriptions so he can win the prize Thanksgiving turkey for his family. Beginning to feel he will fail, Kempton receives the following advice from Sir Granite when he considers going to knock on someone’s door:

“Go up to the door and ring the doorbell,” he said. “You’ll have a moment before he answers the door. While you are waiting, say these words to yourself: ‘Mama, this sale is for you and my sisters, and I am going to get you that turkey for Thanksgiving.’ Repeat this over to yourself as many times as you can before the door opens. Then, when the door is open, ask for the guy to subscribe. Now you go do it, boy, and then hurry back here. Go on now.”

This passage is a good example of Allen’s comfortable, down-to-earth style. The small town setting, the characters, and the book’s overall tone reminded me a bit of The Andy Griffith Show. The reader feels like he’s being guided along by an omniscient narrator who is assuring us everything will turn out all right, although the narrator is actually Kempton as an older man looking back on his life.

The book can be enjoyed by readers of all ages, but I think it would actually be the perfect gift for the young reader first engaging in business-perhaps getting his or her first job, like a paper route, or a job flipping burgers, as well as the person ready to go off to college or to make a major career choice or change. Allen puts a lot of wisdom into a nutshell with each of the principles that Sir Granite offers, and the principles are easy to remember so the reader is more likely to apply them. Every reader will find something thoughtful to learn from and act upon in this book. It’s a great granite foundation to build upon.

New Book Teaches Readers Keys to Network Marketing Success

Ripple Marketing by David Skultety is a concise and up-to-date book on everything that network marketing offers the aspiring entrepreneur who wants to work part-time to earn a few extra dollars, have a home-based business, or go all the way to create a full-time, lifelong, and fulfilling business career.

We’ve all heard bad things about network marketing, but despite those stories, the truth is that it works for many, many people, and it works because people make the effort to make it work. David Skultety himself has led two different network marketing teams, taking them from 1 to 100,000 in membership, so if anyone knows about the benefits and the woes of network marketing, it’s him, and in this new book, he reveals how people can use network marketing to their advantage, avoid its pitfalls, and reap its rewards.

The book begins with a foreword by David Litt, a network marketing corporate executive, who states “There are people in my life who have lots of money and very little time. There are people in my life who have lots of time and very little money. But the only people in my life who have lots of money and lots of time are my friends who are network marketing professionals like David [Skultety].”

David Skultety then takes over and walks readers through the entire process of finding the right network marketing company for them, how to build up their network by finding other people to join them, and how to help the people below them as they build their networks so those people can succeed and still benefit the people above them; after all, network marketing is about far more than sales-it’s about creating residual income based on other people’s efforts. As David Litt says, as a result, “ultimately this book is a blueprint for long-term financial freedom.”

David Skultety impressed me from the first page, and I quickly understood why his friends call him a “networker’s networker.” He has always had an entrepreneurial mindset, as he tells us through stories about how when he was twelve, he had a coffee and lemonade stand at a gas station during the 1979 oil embargo when cars were lined up there. In the sixth grade, he was making $20 a day selling candy to classmates so he could buy a moped. He’s always been involved in some sort of business since then.

Ripple Marketing is far from being like an infomercial of hot air about the benefits of being in network marketing-though those benefits are worth mentioning, such as: the low investment, having a home-based business, tax advantages, ability to sell without borders, working part-time, time-flexibility, and eventual financial freedom. Beyond that, David Skultety gives practical advice and information about how the entire process works and how the reader can become successful.

Various chapter topics include how to find a mentor, accepting that building a business will take time, and how to focus on income-producing activities rather than getting caught up in the minutia of items like building your website and continually improving it or reading up on your products-important activities, but also things that people sometimes focus on in a pretense of working when they should be out selling and networking.

My favorite discussion in the book was about how to overcome fear and develop the three proper mindsets you need to succeed, including the mindset of success. David also gives his top five tips for how to develop the proper mindsets beginning with learning how to feel good about yourself. I appreciated it when he was honest and straightforward about what people have to do to succeed and how it all boils down to motivation. At one point, he states:

“Over the years, I’ve watched countless people talk a good game. They talk about building it big. They claim to possess all the skill sets necessary to succeed. They show up at events and set goals. But they can’t seem to get out of their own way because they have not made one simple decision-the decision that they are going to use the model of network marketing to achieve their dreams, goals, and aspirations.

“In order to make that decision, you may need to overcome your limiting beliefs, you may need to become fearless in talking to people, and you may need to be forever dedicated to working on yourself and helping others do the same.”

David talks a lot about the importance of getting out there and talking to people-you can’t succeed otherwise. He talks about how this can be done numerous ways, including by hosting a series of home launch parties, setting up conference calls, and using social media. In all these cases, you are able to connect with people, and when you understand their needs, find their pain, and put yourself in their situations, you can find out how your product can be a solution to their problems. David also walks the reader through how to make each of these types of connections successful.

Another key point David makes is that when you are selling your products, you can also be introducing people to the idea of entering network marketing themselves so that you can add to your residual income through their efforts. I was impressed by how David pointed out here that we cannot prejudge people, thinking someone will or won’t be interested in our product or business, and then only sticking with the safe people like our family and friends. Instead, we need to go out and sell both our product and our business to the brightest and best people we know if we really want our business to grow and create ripples.

I was also impressed by the information David shares about the importance of learning how to duplicate your products so that you can keep producing them and earning income from them without a lot of extra work.

There is so much more in Ripple Marketing, but I’ll just conclude by mentioning that David believes in servant leadership. He believes in serving the people below him in the network chain so that they can succeed. And, of course, that only benefits him and everyone else in the network.

The back of the book includes additional resources such as “Selecting the Right Company for You,” “The 10 Deadly Sins of Network Marketing,” and recent statistics on network marketing.

Of course, network marketing isn’t for everyone, but if you make the investment to read this book, I think you will be pleasantly surprised that as long as you’re willing to talk to people, it can be a lot more exciting and fulfilling an opportunity than you imagined, and before you know it, the ripple you make can become a wave you can ride for a lifetime.

Virgin – Richard Branson’s Success Story

Famous Quote
“I don’t go into ventures to make a fortune. I do it because I’m not satisfied with the way others are doing business.”

Growing Up

Branson dropped out of school in 1967 at the age of 16 and started a magazine called Student. He hoped it would be a forum for politically-minded youth. He soon was publishing essays and interviews from such figures as Jean-Paul Sartre, James Baldwin, Alice Walker, and Robert Graves. Despite such a roster of great minds and literary figures, the magazine never made money and seemed bound to fail.

Starting the Business

Branson began marketing his next idea in the pages of Student; selling albums at a reduced rate through the mail. It rapidly became a more profitable business than the magazine itself. The staff of Student suddenly found themselves the employees of the Virgin discount record store. “Virgin” because no one had been in business before. Virgin had been going strongly but it was discovered Branson was dodging his tax payments. He was arrested and jailed.

Building an Empire

An out-of-court settlement was reached and, determined to keep the balance sheets carefully, Virgin Records was founded in 1973. Mike Oldfield’s progressive “Tubular Bells” was the first record released through Virgin and became an international success. But, it was the signing of the Sex Pistols to his label in 1977 that truly established Virgin Records. Though the Pistols broke up soon after, Virgin became the largest indie label in the world. Bands like the Rolling Stone, Peter Gabriel and UB40 were signed to Virgin.

Over the next six years, Branson started over fifty different companies encompassing everything from filmmaking to air conditioner cleaning. Though he was making more than $17 million dollars from his various companies collectively, Branson insists that money is not the motivation behind his involvement in so many ventures. Rather, he enjoys attempting to do something more effectively than those who have tried before him.

In 1984, Branson started Virgin Atlantic Airlines – a company that would prove to be a great challenge as well as the cause of financial distress. Branson ignored discouraging comments that told him he could never compete with British Airways, and to look to the example of those who had failed before. The reason being that he had observed how airline companies did not look after their customers adequately enough – so he would be the one to bring affordable and enjoyable flights to the public. Virgin Air was immediately recognized for its service and luxury. In-flight massages, hydrotherapy baths and seat-back video screens were all part of the experience on-board a Virgin aircraft.

With fuel prices having doubled in the early ’90s, terrorist attacks making people afraid to fly, and BA launching a campaign to put Branson out of the airline business, Virgin Atlantic struggled to stay afloat. Branson was forced to sell Virgin Records in order to raise enough money to keep Virgin Atlantic and pay off his creditors. The sale of the company that gave him his start was a crushing blow.

From this point on, Branson developed a new approach to business called “branded venture capital”. Through this method, Branson licenses the well-known Virgin name and logo in exchange for a controlling interest in the venture. Consequently, Branson has his company’s name fixed to more than 200 different companies, among which are Virgin Bridal, Virgin Publishing, a blimp company and a modeling agency.

Branson is known for his unusual business practices (no central headquarters, no board meetings, and he can’t operate a computer), his showy publicity stunts (like driving a tank into Times Square and buzzing over Big Ben in an Airbus jet), and his adventurous exploits (he was the first person to cross the Atlantic in a hot air balloon and has attempted three times to fly it around the world). It might be thought that such an approach to business could have ruined him, but Virgin is a towering $5 billion dollar giant. And Branson keeps dreaming for the future. In discussing the prospect of starting a shuttle service into space, Branson has said, “Why not? It’s virgin territory.”

Secrets to Home Business Success

Everyone can use guidelines and tips when it comes to starting a home-based business. Honestly, what would the world be like if people who have been there and done that were not willing to impart their knowledge and experiences to fledgling entrepreneurs?

We have compiled a series of 8 tips to assist you in starting a successful home-based business. These Suggestions should help your progress on the road to achieving home-based business success in no time!

1. Partner with other businesses

Teaming relationships with a number of other companies in related field is one of the most efficient and cost-effective means of reaching a larger target audience. We suggest that you identify appropriate supplementary businesses in your potential marketplace and then approach them concerning their interest in forging partnerships.

You can even partner with businesses that sell other products likely to appeal to your customers. For example, if you’re selling jewelry, you can partner with a fashion clothing dealer and offer them free advertising on your website.

Since both the products are geared towards the same audience, both businesses are more likely to increase their sales through the partnership.

2. Automation

Handling every business issue manually will eventually limit the potential growth of your home business, not to mention the fact that you will be exhausted from personally answering hundreds of e-mails and phone calls every single day.

Automating some of these activities will optimize your efforts towards building a sustainable and profitable business. Why not consider employing round-the-clock auto responders for instant email responses and an integration of a shopping cart for online sales? This strategy can help you save substantial time and money.

3. Complementary products/services

Once your product or service starts establishing itself in the marketplace, don’t just sit back. Use this chance to introduce exciting new offerings and freebies that encourage your customers to place additional and/or even larger orders.

This will ultimately enhance your Revenue picture with existing customers as well as encourage new customers to come onboard. The founder of Virgin Enterprise, Richard Branson, once said: “Business opportunities are like buses, there’s always another one coming”.

4. Sell more to existing customers

Convincing your current customers to purchase more is more cost effective than acquiring new customers. This will help you to not only save time but also save money wasted on extra marketing.

One of the most effective strategies to convince them to purchase more Product is to offer discounts on volume purchases. You could also offer an incentive for every new referral that an existing customer provides to you.

5. Establish yourself as an expert in your niche

As you continue to invest in marketing your products and services, don’t neglect to invest in yourself by expanding your knowledge of your business niche as well as continuously educating yourself relative to good business practices.

In addition, make it a practice of providing your customers with valuable content related to your products and services. If you have a website, add high quality information for your visitors to review. The more they know about your product and services, the more likely they are to buy your offerings.

Share important tips with customers via monthly newsletters and e-mails: enlighten them on various issues that may be helpful and relevant to them. This will increase your credibility as an expert in your specific niche. As a result, you will win customers’ trust and generate higher sales.

This is a very productive step towards achieving success through your home-based business. The words of John Mackey summarize this very well: “Business social responsibility should not be coerced: it is a voluntary decision that the entrepreneurial leadership of every company must make on its own”.

6. Provide high-quality customer service

Add value to your services or products by actively interacting with customers and inviting constructive feedback. Give more attention to areas in your niche that you feel have not been addressed sufficiently.

Use customers’ suggestions, Comments, and even complaints to improve on your business products, services, and especially business practices. Join social networking groups relevant to your business and become an active participant. As you connect with other people who think alike, identify what they are looking for in your niche and act accordingly.

7. Accept different methods of payments

Your customers can be located anywhere in the world. It might be a Sheik from Saudi Arabia or a web developer from the UK. What you need to insure is that you don’t lose customers due to this global customer pool.

If it is an online payment being processed, remember that Paypal and various other payment methods do not work in third world countries and the Middle East. Integrate credit Card and a wide range of other internationally accepted payment systems into your website. This will not only widen your customer base but also improve your company’s credibility as an international operation.

8. Innovative marketing strategies

One sure-fire way to remain competitive in any niche is to employ innovate promotional methods. Creativity is a must in this arena, especially in internet marketing. Advertising your home based business doesn’t necessitate spending tons of money.

Creative marketing strategies are keys to reaching a target audience even when resources are limited. For instance, consider viral marketing. It has the potential to identify millions of targeted visitors to your home business website and does not cost a fortune. Employ only efficient and cost-effective marketing methods and don’t depend on one method alone.

Spread your risk. Combine a number of marketing campaigns and monitor them consistently. Always remember to adjust your advertising campaigns to match the needs of your Marketplace and the success of your campaign.

At the end of the day, the success of your home based business is highly reliant upon your personal motivation and drive. Exactly how far are you willing to go to achieve success?

Success Tips For The Entrepreneurs Profitable Home Business

In today’s financial upheaval where gas prices are on the rise, more people than ever are looking for ways to create a home based business. The Internet is abound with endless opportunities but a person needs to beware of what they get them selves into. I myself found it necessary to create a profitable home business.

There are some things to consider though before you jump right in lock stock and barrel, such as how much cash you need to put up to get started. You need to figure out how much time and work you are going to have to put into it as well. And don’t let anybody tell you different, your time, your money are required to become successful along with a fair amount of work.

In my own business the costs are considered low and the business is not to difficult to promote or to maintain. A business like that tends to have appeal to a larger group of people than one that is very expensive. I suggest in your own research you consider the expense factors involved and how hard it will be to run it. Some people may have the money but not the time to tackle huge learning curves to launch and run a complicated business. Especially if they are going it alone.

Most adults these days with access to the Internet can become an online entrepreneur and start a home based business. The Internet can give reach to potential customers and members from all over the world. 2 or 3 decades ago it would not have been possible to reach out to millions of people world wide in such an easy manner.

You may be thinking that starting your own business means going into business by yourself. This doesn’t have to be the case if you do not want it to be. There are plenty of business opportunities where you can get a lot of support from people who have a financial stake in your success. This is true in a lot of Multi-level Marketing opportunities. If you are concerned about going it a lone, then you might want to look into Network Marketing. It is still a thriving industry and has increased in popularity with the advent of the Internet.

You need to understand also that the people who are promoting their opportunities who have achieved the level of success who you are desiring, have worked hard to get there. You will not start out being all knowing to become a successful entrepreneur. Like others before you a lot of your knowledge will come through trial and error and learn as you go.

And speaking of acquiring the needed knowledge, you should consider is whether a potential business opportunity has training if you require specialized knowledge. Some businesses just assume that task to yourself and do not provide it for their representatives or members. This is true in a lot of affiliate marketing situations. Just be willing to work towards success as you learn and go and do not let the pitfalls or mountains you have to climb deter you.

You have probably heard of the law of attraction and may have watched that popular movie The Secret, well basically that just means you keep a positive mind and a strong belief that you will succeed, Don’t think of your problems as being a negative thing, but more of a positive thing in that you are acquiring the needed knowledge that will help you to your success. If you get up every morning determined to make progress in your business towards the goal of becoming financially better off, then the universe will magnetize you in cohesiveness with what you need to come to you to succeed.

One other thing in examining a potential is you need to look at who your market will be and how you will contact them. You need to study this market as well to determine if you will be able to successfully compete in it. Some markets are just to popular for the average person to compete with unless he has a tremendous amount of resources at his disposal to try and win in that market.

I hope you found these tips helpful. I myself went through just a process before I launched into my own successful home based business.

The Road to Success in Home Business: Passion, Commitment, Self-Discipline, and a Good Plan

Starting a home business is an adventure, full of exciting twists and turns – and challenging detours, too. It can take you to places you never dreamed. It can make your dreams come true. Running your own home business can teach you things about yourself you may never learn while working for others – how creative and resourceful you are, how much you would like to make a difference in the world. If you do the research and take time to learn the essentials, a home business can enrich your life in many wonderful and sometimes surprising ways. All it takes is a marketable product or service, boundless enthusiasm, enduring commitment, and a good solid plan of action. It also helps to have a big vision for your small home-based business. And let’s not forget self-discipline – one of the most common reasons a home business fails is a lack of self-discipline. It’s not easy operating a demanding business steps away from the hub of family activity and countless distractions.

Home Business Ideas: Innovation and Entrepreneurship

Preeminent business philosopher, Peter F. Drucker wrote, “Entrepreneurs innovate. Innovation is the specific instrument of entrepreneurship. It is the act that endows resources with a new capacity to create wealth. Innovation, indeed, creates a resource. There is no such thing as a “resource” until man finds a use for something in nature and thus endows it with economic value.” At another point in the narrative about innovation Mr. Drucker states that “There is no greater resource in an economy than purchasing power. But purchasing power is the creation of the innovating entrepreneur.” Focus your vision on opportunity. Check out the demographics and come up with something new – social or technical – or re-invent something old. It’s all about innovation, a new take on a traditional service, a brand new product that makes life easier, a specialty service that appeals to a small but growing niche market.

The number of home-based businesses is growing by leaps and bounds every year. The entrepreneurial spirit runs deep, just look to the phenomenal success of eBay. Many people derive great personal satisfaction from working at home. After all home is our sanctuary, we feel safe in our homes and free to be ourselves. We are more creative when we are comfortable. The Internet and computers have made it possible for us to build wealth sitting at home in our pajamas or dressed to the nines, it’s our choice when we work from home. Whether we work from a fancy fully equipped home office or a cubbyhole in the kitchen pantry, a home business can be anything we want it to be. And like traditional business, there is no magic ‘get rich quick’ scheme. There is only dedication. Perseverance and persistence are key requirements on the road to success. The winning results are always worth the extra effort you put into your home business.

There are hundreds of great ideas for home businesses. Brainstorm your idea with friends and associates, people whose advice you respect. Utilize your existing talents and skills and acquire the education you need to be expert. If you love cooking take gourmet cooking courses -perhaps there’s a market for home delivery of gourmet food in your area. Learn about your competition, can you compete with them on the same level, or carve out your own specialized niche in the catering business. Love animals and have a country property with acreage? Dog parks and doggy camps, dog and cat daycare, and overnight pet boarding is a booming business. Are you fit and like working out? If you have the space and either already have or can invest in some exercise equipment, open an exclusive home gym. Become a Personal Trainer. Bookkeeping, Freelance Writer, Seamstress, Internet Marketer, the list of home business ideas is almost endless. A home business should ideally be built around a product or service you know well. You will be successful if you expect success, and know your product or service inside out. Believe there is a need for your product or service, and believe in yourself.

Marketing: How to Win Customers and Keep Them Coming Back

Dr. Michael LeBoeuf, author of numerous books, including ‘How to Win Customers and Keep Them for Life’ and ‘Working Smart’ wrote, “There is absolutely no substitute for an honest, unshakeable, enthusiastic belief that the products and services you offer are the best available anywhere. Couple that with a sincere passion for helping people and you have an unbeatable combination for creating and keeping customers. People are persuaded more by attitude than logic for two basic reasons that you should always keep in mind as you deal with customers or with people in general, people are ruled by their emotions and emotions are contagious. In the final analysis, persuasion (winning customers) isn’t converting people to your way of thinking. It’s converting people to your way of feeling and believing.”

It’s not enough to be excited about your business. Knowing how to generate enthusiasm in others for your product or service is the key component to being successful in any business. You have to find a market. That means developing an effective marketing strategy. There is a wealth of free information readily available on the Internet and in the library. Marketing geniuses like Brian Tracy, Jay Abraham, Dan Kennedy, and other popular ‘gurus’ have websites rich with wisdom and inspiration. Seek out books, magazines, and attend seminars about marketing. It’s amazing how many sources of expert guidance you will find – all brimful of how-to information from people who have traveled the same road and established successful home-based businesses. Talk to business people in your community – whether they are home-based, a retail store, real estate professional, or other small business, their feedback will be invaluable to you. Effective marketing is prerequisite to selling everything, including your credibility. Making the commitment to educate yourself is essential to your long-term success. Learning from the experts gives you a good head start, and helps you avoid some of the inevitable potholes you’ll encounter along the way.
