Legitimate Work From Home Opportunities: You Have To Train Yourself

July 2nd, 2009

When you first start working from home (or even if you’ve been doing it for a while) it can be really hard to be disciplined. That’s why you have to train yourself to be successful working from home.

Of course one of the great things about working from home is that you can work when you want to work but some people take that too far. There are going to be times when you have to work even when you don’t want to.

For the work at home newcomer I recommend writing out a weekly schedule and sticking with it. That’s the only way to make sure you’re really going to get enough work done to become really successful.

Now you say: “hey, I signed up for a home based business so I didn’t have to follow a schedule!”

While that may be true, until you get the hang of working for yourself from home you’re going to need some sort of structure otherwise you won’t get nearly enough done each week and you’ll probably fall flat on your face.

When you work at a job you know exactly when and where you’re suppose to be working so as a business owner you will now have to train your brain. Once you get use to working on schedule you can feel free to give yourself a little more freedom because you’ll know just how much work it actually takes.

Think of it this way, when you first learn how to make a recipe you follow it very, very carefully because if you don’t you might mess it up. However, once you’ve made the dish lots of times you will almost never have to look at the actual recipe ever again. It will just become a part of you!

You’ll also have to train yourself to say “no” when people ask you to do things. Take it from me, when you work from home people think you do nothing. Even if you’re really busy some people just won’t get it. They think if you’re at home you must not be doing anything important.

You’ll have to learn to tell those people no because when you have to work you have to work! If you don’t train yourself to tell people no know it will get harder and harder.

Treat your business with respect and use your time wisely. Train yourself to be a great home based business owner and soon it will be second nature and you’ll be incredibly successful.

Legitimate Home Based Business – Does Data Entry Count?

January 21st, 2009

If you’ve been looking for a way to make money online or from home I’m sure you’ve seen a ton of opportunities to do data entry. So is this really a legitimte home based business or are you better off doing something else?


As an online marketer I am constantly seeing ads for people to do data entry as a way to make money online. Let me first say that not all data entry is the same some are more legitimate than others. Often times companies will hire someone to do data entry from home instead of working in an office. Other times data entry is code for – spamming anyone and everyone and trying to sign people up to do the same thing.


No matter what kind of data entry you’re looking at it’s important to know that this is not a legitimate home based business. It is at the very most a home based job (very different from a business) and at the very worst a scam that will take your money and never pay you a dime.


If you are going to get involved with data entry do a lot of research first. If it’s a job it will not require an upfront fee (businesses take money to start jobs don’t) and they should be able to pay you an actual salary and tell you what it will be.


If there is no product to market, and all you’re doing is copy and pasting things all over the Internet run and run fast… this type of operation is not legal and it’s never ever going to make you rich.


Keep in mind that no scammer is just going to come out and say “yes this is a scam” so it will be up to you to ask the questions and get all the information.


Another thing that can help you avoid any type of scam is talking to the person on the phone. Never let all of your communication be through email. Speak to the person who wants you to get started, if they are involved in a legitimate business they should have no problem speaking to you.


Finally, data entry can mean a lot of different things. If you’re going to become involved in it make sure what you’re doing is legal and that you’re going to be able to make real money. Just be careful in general and always remember that if you’re looking for a real way to make money online a legitimate home based business is always going to be your best bet.
