Creating Your Own Home-Based Business
by Elena Fawkner
If you're looking for a way to make money from home and you've been online for any length of time you will have quickly become aware of the preponderance of business opportunity sites and ads for many and varied business opportunities. In particular, you've probably been bowled over by all the promises of the fabulous internet riches that can be yours, if you only join so-and-so's innovative new groundfloor opportunity that everybody who is anybody wants in on.
This week I received an email from a subscriber asking for my opinion on a particular business opportunity. She was asking what I "really thought" about it because she had been "burned so many times in the past I just don't know who to trust". Sound familiar?
I've received several emails like this over recent months from people who have been dudded by the charlatans who seem to come out of the woodwork at the mere whiff of a victim, er ... prospect. This latest one though got me wondering exactly why it is that so many people seem to be looking to make a profit from promoting or participating in someone else's business opportunity or product rather than creating their own, using their own ingenuity. And this applies not only to scams but to legitimate business opportunities (yes, they DO exist). After all, no matter how legitimate the opportunity, at least some of your hard work and effort is going to benefit someone else.
Now, admittedly, promoting someone else's product (such as by way of affiliate programs) is a good way to get started in your online career, but it's not going to make you really serious money. By "serious" I mean sufficient money to represent a worthwhile return on the investment of time and effort you must expend to earn significant commission income. By spending the same amount of time and effort promoting your OWN business, your return must necessarily be much greater. After all, you keep 100% of the profits for the same work!
Why is it that some people, let alone those who have already been burned, keep looking for someone else to deliver the answer to their prayers rather than creating it for themselves? Or worse, give up entirely? I'd be willing to bet that, for a goodly proportion, the answer is "I don't have any products of my own to sell" or "I don't have any good ideas" or "I don't know where to start".
Now, it may be that you're just dabbling with the idea of an online business and, for you, promoting a few affiliate programs while you gradually get more involved is a good place for you to be right now. Many of us started out doing exactly that. But for those of you who are ready to get into this in a serious way, have you thought about doing it for yourself? Why not let go of the idea there is a perfect opportunity out there with your name on it if only you can find it, and instead devote your time and your energy to creating it using your own brainpower?
I believe, absolutely and without equivocation, that ANYONE can make money with their own business. The key is to make sure that what you choose for your business is something you are passionate about. If you are passionate about what you do, your natural enthusiasm and motivation will lead you to develop ways to exploit that passion in a way that can generate income.
Let's say one of your absolutely favorite things in the whole world is gardening. You've always loved to garden, you have ever since you first got your own place and you do it every chance you get. Think about how you might translate that natural interest into a profitable business endeavor.
Here's just one suggestion how you can turn your green thumb to your financial advantage: start a gourmet herb business! You could indulge your passion for gardening by planting a herb garden in your backyard, drying and packaging the herbs you grow and marketing them to a niche market. Your niche may be the gourmet market, for example. You might decide to experiment with various combinations of herbs to come up with some exotic gourmet herb blends that are truly original.
You would need to invest in a small greenhouse perhaps and learn about how to dry herbs and all the other facets of a herb business. But once you've mastered that, and experimented with various blends to create a unique product, it's simply a matter of packaging them attractively for your market.
As far as marketing's concerned, this would take place both online and offline. You will, of course, have your own website from which you offer your exotic herb blends for sale. Your website would contain a profile of all the various herbs, what they are good for, recipes and other resources that your site visitors would be interested in. In time, you may even expand into producing herbs for the homeopathic market! You could supplement your website by publishing a weekly or monthly newsletter devoted to all things herbal, including hints and tips for your subscribers wanting to grow their own herbs or who are interested in the health benefits of herbs.
Offline, you could approach local businesses in your area to stock your products and attend weekend markets to build your profile. By placing advertisements in local newspapers and taking an active role in your local Chamber of Commerce you would make the contacts that you need to become known within your local community. Other ways to indulge your passion for gardening while at the same time operating a profitable business venture include: growing your own vegetables to produce gourmet pasta sauces; starting a packaged seeds business or a garden design consultancy service. It doesn't matter. Just make sure it has something to do with what you are truly passionate about.
Gardening is, of course, just one example. Perhaps your passion is sewing, needlecraft, woodworking, computers, sports, parenting, travel, automobiles, leadlighting or any one of a million other things. There is absolutely no reason in the world why you cannot take that passion and convert it into a money-making enterprise, particularly with the internet as a marketing medium.
So, for those of you looking for the right business opportunity "out there" somewhere ... STOP. Let go of the coat-tails, reach inside yourself and grab the one thing you are TRULY passionate about above all others. It is your ticket to a profitable, home business of your very own. And best of all, it's 100% all yours.

A Misleading Ad - The Guy Who Got Rich Quick
by Chris A. Friar
We've all seen this guy's ads featured in income opportunity
publications. He's the guy making anywhere from $5,000 to $500,000 in
a few days or weeks. He claims he got rich quick with very little effort
and only a few brain cells functioning. He attributes this success to a
secret plan or product he is willing to sell you for $20 to $30 bucks.
Now let's step back for a moment and look at this guy's ad. First of
all, his ad is usually a page long. The print is micro-small so he may
put as many details of his wonderful life on one page for your enjoyment and envy.
After we hunt down our glasses and settle down to read this fascinating
"rags to riches" account we become boggled and googly-eyed with the details. These details usually include how broke he was and how now he and his family are buying Mercedes and BMWs every year and taking exotic vacations they only dreamed about. He usually refers himself as "a little guy" just like you. Therefore his ad is strategically written to strike a cord that adheres to those of us looking for a way out of pending financial doom or the nine-to-five grind.
The guy who got rich quick offers you the "sizzle" without even a glimpse
of the steak. This type of advertising is usually called 'a blind ad'
because we never know what the product is. All we know is that
it's a BIG SECRET plan to riches.
The intention is to ask you to buy something without knowing a
thing about it. Well you know it made him rich, don't you? No you don't.
There is no law against telling stories. There are only laws against
misrepresenting products being sold. He doesn't say anything about
the product except that it's a money-making plan. As long as it is
possible that such a plan could make money for someone under some
circumstances, the authorities don't object to it. It makes no
difference if the story of the Guy Who Got Rich Quick is total fiction.
He's not asking you to pay anything for the story only the secret plan.
Very often the plan is a book or manual consisting of ways to
sell by mail. It probably did make him rich. After all,
selling things by mail is what he's trying to do with his ad.
Most books sold this way do not tell you anything specific
about the experiences of the advertiser. He tells you to pick
some product, write an ad and take your money to the bank.
It's about as useful as an 8-page manual on how to be a heart surgeon.
Never buy anything from a blind ad that doesn't have a solid
money-back guarantee.
The fact is, there are no real "get rich quick" plans. The mail order
business takes time and money to launch. The Guy Who Got Rich Quick
never tells you what he paid for his full page ad. A full page ad in a
national publication can cost anywhere from $600 to $2,500 for
a one time buy.
He didn't say that you must advertise consistently to be successful
in mail order. He also forgot to mention the cost of paper, postage
stamps, office equipment and time required to get your offer delivered.
Those of us who are in business for ourselves know that the only
secret to making a profit (or riches) is perseverance, a lot of hard
work, good management, good customer service, time and commitment.

Paul Newman 1925-2008
Actor Paul Newman has died at the age of 83, after a battle with cancer.
Connecting a backhoe to your tractor 3 point hitch
- The top link of the 3 point hitch supports the backhoe.
- Do whatever you got to do to get all the hydraulics ready to connect
to the Backhoe.
- Set your backhoe on the ground and back your tractor
up to it as close as possible to connect the hydraulics.
- Turn off the tractor then hook up the hydraulics.
Doing this will make sure you don't "dead head" your hydraulic
pump on the tractor.
- Start up the tractor.
- Lower the out riggers on both sides to support the back hoe.
- Manipulate the boom & dipper to further support and level
the backhoe.
- Adjust (raise or lower) the 3 point arms so that you can connect
the lower 3 point arms to the backhoe.
- Keep adjusting the backhoe outriggers, dipper, boom, to keep
the backhoe level.
- Adjust the toplink that is attached to the backhoe so as to
connect it to your tractor toplink hole. Extend it or
shorten it as needed.
- Now Bolt on those brackets that are attached about
midway to the toplink down to the bottom of the backhoe near
where the lift arms are. This is the key to 3 point backhoes,
it is what supports it and keeps it from lifting or lowering.
While transporting and digging.
- At this time you must now lower the 3 point hitch all the way
down, this is very important. The BACKHOE SHOULD NOT MOVE
DOWN (at most 1/2"). As long as your backhoe is connected,
your 3 point adjustment lever must always be in its
lowest setting, otherwise the hydraulic fluid will overheat
because it will be pumping fluid through the high pressure
bypass.
Note for step 4: Some backhoes have a pump set up on hoses. Attach the pump to the PTO.
If you are unsure, STOP! Until you are sure about the hook up. Find out more about
how to do the hook up before you get hurt.
