Starting Your Home Based Business With MLM Prospecting and Generating Leads

Starting your own home based business can be hard, never easy. You always need money to pay your bills, and things just don’t happen for you very easily in terms of getting unique visitors, them turning into leads, converting those leads into prospects and then actual clients, and then enrolling them into your primary business. All of this while trying to pay your bills. It’s hard for a person whether they are single or whether they have a big family to support so I won’t talk about that. What a lot of people don’t realize is that business expenses are 100% tax deductible, but that doesn’t make it free, especially if you’re not earning any money. So most people that start with a home based business do so while having a job or do so from savings as a big investment.

They are many types of home based businesses and most of them, I mean besides the kind that are there for stuffing envelopes, require the use of a telephone or more often the computer with an internet connection. All home based businesses pay you for how much processing or prospect conversions that you do.

This is especially true with a Network Marketing or MLM home based business. So how do you get your unique visitors to come to you? How do you turn those unique visitors into leads? How do you get them as prospects who are interested in your company or product? And, how do you actually enroll them into your business as a client? That’s when they are now in your boat asking these exact same questions. Questions that you, like I will have to answer for them.

So the first step, getting unique visitors is usually the most easiest thing to do, specifically you must invest enough money into marketing. But how much does it cost, and are you marketing in a specific niche that is interested or caters to your product or service? Once you find your target niche, after that you have to worry about your competition. So how do you stay ahead? Well, it’s really up to you. And I’m going to try to help you as much as I can.

First of all, what is a niche market? A niche market is composed of individuals and businesses that have similar interests and needs, which can be readily identified, and that can be easily targeted and reached. Finding a niche for your business means finding a great product or service for a highly targeted audience. An example of a niche market is women teenagers clothing, or boys clothing, or catering for needs of the elderly.

A great tool is ranking on Google for free, and I have a few tricks up my sleeve which I won’t discuss in this article and am saving for my personal team. Another great tool is pay per click advertising using overture, word tracker, or my favorite, Google AdWords. This is where you can find a specific keyword term with less than 300,000 results that you can actually compete in. Of course pay per click marketing is very expensive, and seldom people can afford this at first unless you’re already making money with your online business. But to find a good keyword phrase with little competition use Google’s, Google AdWords: Keyword Tool. Just Google that phrase on Google and you’ll find it.

But before I get into more trends, I have to establish that if you’re going to have an online business, what you need is a lead capture page and an email auto-responder so people can subscribe to your newsletter and it helps you keep track of your leads. Now if your great with computer technology you can get a very affordable domain name with GoDaddy and host it for less than $4 per month using HostGator but then you have to really understand html and create a programming environment where every time someone clicks somewhere on your page that, that information is tracked, stored, and processed using some type of program environment tool. Most people that have a home based online business or are interested in having one are not savvy enough with computers, much less savvy when it comes down to html and especially programming. Things like cgi scripting, perl scripting, php, asp, java, java scripting, etc. What most people need is a capture page that already has everything set up and running for you. A capture page that lets you sit back, relax, and see exactly what is going on with your online campaign. This isn’t going to cost you $4 dollars per month. If you want all these tools available to you you’re going to have to find something a lot more technologically practical, useful, convenient, sound, and concrete; and yet still at an affordable price. Say for under $50 per month? I personally recommend this site. It’s called lead system pro and it automates a lot of or all of the things necessary to effectively host a web capture or lead page and allowing you to track your visitors and doing a whole bunch of other cool things, basically also giving you a back office where you can manage and edit your site and content without any knowledge of html or web based programming. You could also take advantage of a whole bunch of Web 2.0 applications that are all free and link them into your capture page. Applications such as youtube, MySpace, Facebook, twitter, and more are covered in the tutorial section with step by step video guidance in lead system pro. The company also has recorded webinars or phone/computer seminars that are pre-recorded that you can watch or listen to so you can take examples from what others already know and apply it to your own site(s) and business and market that way.

You’ll also need some type of advertising that you can do about every 3 days or so in order to get consistent traffic coming to your site. I know about two services which cost about $200 each for 1 year and I think that, that is a great offer. It comes down to advertising costs of about a little over $16 dollars per month each, and lead system pro shows and tells you about these great non-spamming email list advertising programs. So you can learn a lot of information from that website, and I highly recommend it. It costs about $1 for a 14 day trial, where all other similar hosting sites only give you a 7 day trial for the same price, and probably offer a lot less. They also offer you a bunch of affiliate programs that you can sign up for on other websites to generate money from each lead whether or not they join you in your primary business or not.

Now I know I’m talking about a lot of upfront money here just for a capture page and advertising, but if you decide that you want to join my team, I’ll share with you ways to do marketing and generate 20 leads per day guaranteed and all for free.

But for now, let’s get back to more trends. How do you turn those unique visitors to turn into leads? Leads are people that opt-in or sign up for your newsletter, an interested market, that put in their real name, email, and phone number and automatically get put on your auto-responder newsletter. If you’re worried about the auto-responder newsletter, don’t be, lead system pro has all of that built in and taken care of so you don’t have to write a thing to your list unless you want to. Once a person is a lead, there’s no cold calling, no hunting people down, no convincing other people or telling them about your business. These are people that are already interested, so they are called your warm market. What that means is that they’re open to you, what you have to say, and what you have to offer. But although I’ve told you what a warm market is and what a lead is, I never explained how you turn those unique visitors into these leads.

Simply put, to turn a unique visitor into a lead requires original content. Just like you’re reading my article now, or watching one of my videos on YouTube, you need to be descriptive, creative, and unique basically coming up with a marketing formula or system that brands you instead of your company. That is what makes people interested in what you have to offer them. People are not generally interested in buying into a company. People are more interested in leaders so what they will usually do is sign up with the person that offers them the most value. And that person, that leader, is going to be you. And I’ll show you how.

You need to create Your own unique selling position – study your competition to find out what they emphasize about the product which makes them stand out from the crowd or their niche that you want to compete in. Then decide on something that will make your business unique from the others. It could be something unique about the product, the service, or you, or you could choose a more highly defined target market. You need to build and promote your web site – to develop a profitable web site for your niche product you need to create a number of informative pages that will not only attract visitors from the search engines, but inform and move them to purchase from your site.

Define Your Purpose – Without a clear purpose for your site, you will not know where you are heading, for example, to help small business owners attain a presence on the web to sell their product or service. Now, write down the statement of purpose for your web site. Go over it a few times to make sure it is crystal clear, then write an article and/or make a video. Otherwise your unique visitors will be trying to figure it out for themselves.

Realize many others may be competing to sell the same product. Focus on something unique you may have to offer, that stands out from your competitors. If you are setting up a company, make sure it is a reputable company with a good track record with lots of help available from others involved, such as your upline, partners, coaches, mentors, etc. Don’t recklessly jump in – you will waste a lot of time and money. This is the number one reason, why many entrepreneurs give up so quickly and basically fail.

You have to have to put on your customers shoes. Make a thumb nail sketch of this person – who is your customer? What is his/her wants, needs and worries? Try to understand what makes them tick. Then you can understand what gain you can offer and what worry you can solve. This is the only way to gain trust or confidence in your customer so that they will buy from you in a very competitive market.

Develop your product that addresses one or more of these needs. Always refer back to your thumbnail sketch as you write for your site. Elaborate on the points that fit your product and what it delivers. As you start writing, new ideas will naturally emerge, but always keep them focused on your targeted customer so you won’t go off the track of what your customer wants. Remember, to sell to your customer you have to have their wants and needs in mind.

Maybe you have seen the ads, “Get 10,000 visitors to your site, for only $20”. Wow, you think, that’s a great bargain, I’ll go for it. The result – 10 people visiting your site and no one buying. What do you do?

Write Your Copy to Sell – When you begin to write the copy for your site, always stress the benefits. Develop a theme for your site that focuses on this benefit and don’t stray from it.

Also, make your customer want to click through to the next page or click through to your order page.

Now, that you have identified your targeted customer and written copy tailored to solving your customers’ problems, you will no longer lose those that you have driven to your site.

More realistically put, to turn a unique visitor into a lead, as mother said, you only get one chance to make a first impression – and that’s the one that sticks. What she didn’t say was that when it comes to web sites, not only must it create a good impression, it must be effective.

Your web site has two choices. It can choose to sit quietly in the corner like a wimp, or it can engage with visitors, make contact, and do business. Not much different to a real world encounter when you think about it. If you have something to offer, you either go out and tell people about or sit home and get ignored. And guess which web site does more business – the inactive wimp or the pro-active go-getter?

But there’s a problem. To interact online, you have to have some way of establishing contact with your visitor. Most importantly, finding out who they are, what they need and when they need it. With lead system pro, on your capture page they have a form where people put in their name, email, and phone number. This is what you need to contact the person and truly find out their needs.

Let’s get one very common misconception out of the way. However good it is, don’t expect your web site to sell your organization, your product or your service immediately; it won’t.

Using the Web is called browsing for a reason. Visitors are browsing, not shopping. But be it on the Net or in the local shopping mall or store, people do see things that catch their eye while browsing [aka window shopping]. They do ‘come in’ and ‘look around’. They may not need what you have at the moment. They may not even be able to afford it right now. But they are interested or they would not have ‘come in’ and browsed around. Your web site’s critical task is to ensure that when they can afford it or when they do need it; they know exactly where to find your web site – easily and quickly. But how do we achieve that?

I use the term pro-active. To me web sites that just sit there and wait for visitor requests or signs of interest are re-active [aka: wimps]. They do nothing until poked by the visitor. Pro-active web sites poke the visitor – in the nicest possible way, of course! It is vital your web site finds a way to engage your visitors again in the future.

You must always give in order to receive. The better quality you give, the more you receive. It is a universal law of nature established long before the Internet or probably even the dinosaurs. Provide a *quality* ‘something’ to you visitors in exchange for the ability to contact them. Then treat this exchange with the care and respect it deserves and, sooner or later, that visitor will become your client. It may take days, maybe months, but sooner or later, when they have a real need of what you provide, they will come to you and ask for it – guaranteed. You won’t have to sell it. They will want to buy it.

A good example of this is building that email list and writing articles for your leads to read on a weekly basis, sort of like a newsletter, adding value and insight, not just promoting what you can do for them but also helping them to solve a want or need as well.

Thousands of people may visit your site every day. This is totally futile unless you help them to help themselves. Help them remember you by offering articles, newsletters, RSS feeds, Blogs, Videos or whatever does it for you. There are many avenues you can choose from. Whichever you choose, don’t just have your web site sit there in the corner looking pretty – and doing nothing. Make it work for its living.

You invested time, effort and probably money in putting your website up. Make it earn its keep – it owes you that. Ensure it greets the visitor, what you do, have plenty of attractive and useful content, but above all else, ensure you make all efforts to get your visitor’s calling card/email address before they leave your web site.

I think by now you’ve got the general idea. We’ve also covered how do you get them as prospects who are interested in your company or product.

The last step is, how do you actually enroll them into your business as a client? Well we’ve covered that as well, and with a system like lead system pro it is all automatically done. Your content, your brand/image, and what you put into your site will make the browsers actual shoppers.

Tips on Choosing A Home Based Business That’s Right For You

Selecting the right kind of business is a difficult process for any online business starter. Many scams out there on the Internet involve so-called experts who claim you can become rich overnight. However, as most know by now, there is no such thing as a get rich quick scheme that actually works. Even the best home business opportunity requires some work on your part.

Many people dream of getting in their own online businesses but remain frozen in status quo simply because they have no idea what business they should be engaged in. Business ideas are now flooding the Internet. The first thing you need to do when choosing your home based business is to find out what type of business appeals to you most. Make a list of your skills and talents. Follow your passion to choose a home business that is right for you. Working from home is about determination, having fun, and learning.

You need to take time to explore available options when choosing a home based business. With the phenomenal growth of the Internet over the past decades, information is now literally at your fingertips. The majority of the Internet businesses have reviews available online. Always do some research into business opportunities, and never take what is said on the sales letter at face value. Many programs just don’t live up to their promises of big money returns.

While you may have passion for a business, don’t forget to consider its business potentials. Is there is a demand for it? Where can you find the audience you can market to? Does the program come with marketing tools to help you build your business? How saturated is the market? You should start a business with a solid potential to be profitable.

The next thing to consider is what costs will be involved with running your particular business. Look into the startup costs. Starting an online business can be relatively inexpensive compared with offline businesses, but this doesn’t mean an online business is free to start.

If you want to work for a Pay-Per-Click affiliate program, you need to do keyword research and/or set up landing pages. If you are thinking of joining a multi-level marketing scheme, you should be prepared to spend a lot of time and money advertising your business. If you want to build a website but don’t know how to do it, the cost of having one set up can be extremely expensive.

Thirdly, it would be better to select a home based business that fits well with the schedule of your family. If you have to take care of your baby and family, businesses that would require you to actively seek clients out may not be suited for you.

Lastly, ensure the business you have chosen is in compliance with zoning ordinances in your area. Zoning ordinances may limit whether you can operate a business from home. Although zoning ordinances in many cities have been modernized to recognize that a computer-based business is unlike a noisy autobody shop or a malodorous hair salon, certain kinds of online businesses are still banned. Investigate your area’s zoning ordinances before selecting your home based business.

Once you have found a home based business, stick to it and don’t give up when you don’t see progress right away. Always remember that the more you promote your business the bigger it will grow. You may not see immediate results in the short term, but success will eventually come as long as you continue putting efforts into your business.

Money Making Ideas For a Christian Home Based Business

There are a number of different money making ideas that you can implement if you are looking to start a Christian home-based business. While you can certainly own a business that allows you to promote products that advances your faith it isn’t necessary. The key is that you have a business that reflects values of your faith and not contradicts the principles of your faith.

If you are looking for a Christian home based business that allows you to promote products that cater to people that believe in Christianity, there are a number of money making ideas that you can implement. One business that you can start is you can sell public domain Christian pdf ebooks or physical books.

How does this work? There are several books written by authors related to the bible, Christian topics and principles. These books were written many years ago. According to copyright laws after a book has been around for a certain length of time, its copyright status enters what is known as the public domain.

What is the public domain exactly? This is a status of any type of creative work where the author or copyright holder no longer has the exclusive copyright to that work. This means that anybody can take that work, make a few changes, additions or revisions to it to write an eBook or physical book that forms a new work and sell that work as if they created it themselves all with a new copyright.

A perfect example of how this works is the bible. The 66 chapters that make up the bible are considered public domain. Let’s say you wanted to create a bible specifically designed to help parents raise their children better. What you would do is take the bible, add notes and commentary to it related to the scriptures and parenting and now you have a completely new bible that you can sell as your own product.

If you don’t want to create your own product, you can simply become an affiliate for other peoples’ products. Amazon.com and other retailers that sell Christian products will pay you an affiliate commission simply for you recommending that others purchase the products that you recommend. You can recommend Christian products and earn an affiliate commission for your recommendations.

If you’re looking for a business that you can start that isn’t inherently Christian but is based on Christian principles, you have a number of options available to you. A network marketing business when applied properly can be a great Christian home based business because of the concepts of helping others and serving people. You just have to be careful in selecting the right company to work with as there are a lot of scams out there as well.

Starting a Christian home-based business is certainly possible when you are operating online.

Whether you are looking to sell Christian products specifically or have a business that demonstrates Christian principles, you have a host of moneymaking ideas to choose from.

who has not got one or access to one these days? An

elementary knowledge of the working of a computer and the

Internet is sufficient to get started. Many things can be

Sex , Race and Religion are no barriers. It is sans borders.

are several Affiliate programs that provide Entrepreneurs

with Free Websites and Tools too. You could have your own

personal website if you are prepared to spend a few dollars.

Why?

This is a pertinent question indeed! Some of the reasons for

starting a Home Based Business are:

1. A desire to earn an Additional income to supplement the monthly income.

2. A desire to run your own home business and not depend on your Boss’s pay packet

3. Dissatisfaction with your present Boss or your employment.

4. Being out of work or laid off.

5. Circumstances forcing you to be with the family or ageing parents.

6. A Childhood ambition to have your own business.

When?

You can start a Home Based Business at any age, It can be at

twenty, fifty or even at seventy. What matters most is that

you have to be sufficiently motivated and have the urge and

desire to do it.

Allocating two hours a day for your cherished dream should

not be difficult to start with. In fact about twenty hours a

week would be useful and advantageous. I am aware of people

who have retired from active work but are keeping themselves

gainfully occupied by doing an Internet Home Based Business.

To be successful in life you should have a Plan, more so for

your Internet Business Opportunity. Draw up a short term and

a long term plan for what you intend to achieve. Initially

draw up a Plan for the first three months to start with and

try to stick with it, come what may.

advertisements can and will divert your attention from your

objective. Do not run after the goose that is going to lay

the golden egg for you and waste your valuable time.

Top Marketers are brilliant people who spend much time and

money in researching how to divert your attention and I can

tell you, they are not going to fail! I should know! I have

been in the marketing business for several years though not

in the internet field . Hence you should remain completely

focused on your work.

Where?

Unlike in a brick and mortar business, to operate a Business

from home, the Home Based Business Entrepreneur needs no

separate building. Your physical place of business will be

your very home and no high start up fees is necessary. The

computer can be set up wherever you like so that it is

convenient to work with and free from noises and

distraction.

receive from the members of your family. The spouse can be

of great assistance by reading and researching resources and

articles and doing a lot of other preliminary work, which

can substantially reduce the number of hours you have to

Work From Home Opportunities – Choosing Your Home Based Business

So, you want to start a business that you can work at home at your convenience? Then you should have an idea on how to choose the type of business that you want to start and how you are going to go about it.

Any kind of business requires investment, not only of time and effort, but also of money. Therefore, one should take the time to decide on the best work from home opportunities that he/she wants to pursue. Many factors have to be considered in selecting a work from home opportunity, especially if he/she wants to become an entrepreneur someday.

One of the questions you have to ask yourself is the availability of the potential market for the product or service that you are planning to venture on. One way to answer this is to conduct market research. Another way is to try working on the business on a part-time basis and see how it goes.

Consider the necessary skill to pursue this business. Do you have what it takes to become successful in a home business? What does the business need in terms of qualification, experiences, skills, training, etc.? If you really want this type of business, and you don’t have the necessary training, then you can consider enrolling in classes or get the experience needed. You can also partner with others who are knowledgeable and more experienced in this type of business venture.

The third question is about this important thing called money. How much is needed, and will you be able to produce the needed amount to start and grow the business? Start creating a business plan which outlines the operating expenses so that you can have an estimate of the cash outlay needed in developing the business.

There will be a rapid increase in work from home opportunities and home based businesses. This means that you might have a hard time attracting the potential market. It is time to think of ways to make your business different from the rest. Your products or services must be differentiated from those of the same or related products or services in the industry.

Once you have considered the possible expenses, it is time to estimate the price of your product or service. Do you think you can set a price that will make your business profitable? Considering the expenses that you have calculated, how much is the price that you can offer? Do you think it is competitive compared with the others? If it is higher than the rest, then it is time to rethink because for sure, the product or service won’t sell unless it is has a unique added value that makes it different from the competitors’ products.

The last and most important thing that you have to bear in mind is the marketing of your products. Do you have the interest to learn about how to market your products online? Can you produce a good website that can show the details of the products and services so that there are many chances for sales revenues? You might have the best products and services with affordable prices, but if nobody knows that your products exist, then all will be useless. Internet marketing is not easy, and you need to learn it and do it. You must invest time and effort in learning. Watch videos, research the Web and learn from the successful internet marketers, join forums to be able to interact and get suggestions from people with the same interests – these are some of the things that you can do to learn about internet marketing.

Starting your own home based business is not easy, but if you have the skills, money, time, knowledge and determination, success will follow. There is always a learning curve in everything that we do, and unless we venture and actually experience it, only then can we learn from our mistakes that will make us become the successful entrepreneur that we aspire to be. Experience is the best teacher, but it doesn’t mean that we learn only from them. We also have to gain knowledge so that the mistakes that teach us the lessons that we need will be at a minimum. One last reminder, don’t forget that in any business venture, marketing is very essential in order to reach the gate to success with the work from home opportunities we choose.

How to Generate Home Based Business Ideas – My BEST Tips For Anyone Starting a Business at Home

Want to know the absolute BEST way to generate ideas for your home based business? It always amazes me how many people STRUGGLE, and suffer through the process of picking what it is they want to do. Want to know the truth? There is only ONE sure fire way to pick a winning strategy that almost NEVER fails to work.

It’s NOT stuffing envelopes.
It’s NOT MLM or network marketing.
It’s NOT surveys.
It’s not buying and selling on Ebay.

The absolute BEST way to generate ideas for your home based business?

Identify what you are MOST passionate about first. And then come up with a cacophony of creative ways to parlay your passion…..into PROFIT. Period!

Let me share with you a little unfortunate secret that most “gurus” DON’T want you to know…….

90% of home based business people will fail. Most will SPEND far more money “learning” than they’ll ever make. The people who almost ALWAYS end up on top are those that LOVE what they do, and then generate an avalanche of ways to monetize that passion with marketing.

So the REAL secret is not necessarily PICKING the idea…..you already have that in your heart and soul. Each of us has things we are passionate about right now…and it could be anything from cooking, to gardening to martial arts to providing services like coaching and consulting like me.

It’s actually figuring out how to MONETIZE that idea, which is often far easier than you realize.

Ask yourself the following questions to start.

Who NEEDS what I do best?
Who BENEFITS most from my unique skill set?
And who has the EASIEST access to these people already?

Often, the FASTEST way to turn your simple idea into an amazing “overnight” success, is to simply find the people who already HAVE your customers in their sphere of influence and simply contact them. Do it on Twitter. Do it via email. Leave a comment on their blog.

The key is to simply take what you love, and identify the ways that are MOST amenable to make money from them. And then build relationships with people already DOING what you love…and make a WIN/WIN proposition that works for all! (it really IS that easy as well..:-)
