Profitable Jobs

Archive for December, 2009

Do you ever wonder what your customers want? Most business owners ask themselves that question daily. I know I do and I bet you do too.

I was watching one of my favorite marketers speak recently and he said something that struck a chord with me and got me thinking. He said “people want magic bullets”.

They want the answer to their problems. A quick fix for their woes. A simple solution that will make their world a better place and they want it now!

That phrase made me ask, what magic bullets do my prospects want and do I have them?

How can I turn my products into the magic bullets that my prospects can’t live with out?

Side note: The best way to find out what your prospects want is to survey them but, that is a whole other article.

Now, asking these questions won’t help you get inside your prospects mind but, it will get you in the right mind set.

Think about it. When you have a problem, you want a solution right? You don’t want to wait. Do you?  You want a quick fix and you want it now. You want a magic bullet. Guess what, so does your prospect!

Have you ever watched an infomercial and felt every button they pushed. Felt like what they were selling was the answer to all your problems? You just want to rip out your credit card and say take my money! You can’t wait until you can get your hands on that magic bullet.

We all have and it’s the magic bullets that get you every time.

For instance let’s say your target market is acne sufferers. If you have ever had acne you can identify with the pain and agony that acne sufferers go through. A sufferer will try and buy just about anything that offers relief from their suffering no matter what the cost. Magic bullets don’t have a price cap.

Are you starting to see? Put on your top hat and pull out your magic wand. Now start thinking. What you are selling? What solutions do you have to offer? How can you solve peoples problems? What magic bullets can you pull out of your product or service?

Once you pull those magic bullets out of your hat and put them right under your prospects nose then the real magic will begin.

You have nothing to lose, have you?

But it could start you on the road to financial security.

Working from home is a big dream for many. But fear holds us back. Below I have listed a few reasons why starting a home business is a great idea.

Your Great Idea Comes to Life. You have a great business idea. This is the number one reason that most people go into business from home. Remember the kind of ideas that are good for a home business are ones that can become real quickly, and start bringing in an income almost immediately

You can do What You Love. Most people have something that they really love to do.  Getting paid for doing what you love is a dream come true.
You get to be the boss. No more working your fingers to the bone for someone else. You will be the boss and you will reap the rewards.

You want more time with your Family. No more missing out on weekends, family occasions or Holidays. You will be home for every special moment.

No More Wasting Time and Money Commuting. With the high price of gas and the average commute to work being thirty miles one way just think of the time and money you will save when you work from home!

These reasons alone are good enough to say I am ready to start my own home business. In an up coming issue we will discuss how to write your business plan.

You have nothing to lose, have you?

But it could start you on the road to financial security.

How often do you ask yourself the following question?

What simple home based business could I start that would earn me money? It shouldn’t cost much to set up – if anything and one that would be adaptable to fit around my present commitments?

This is a question we often hear about and one that causes many people a great deal of problems and heart searching.

Ideally it should not necessarily be a nine to five job involving deadlines that have to be met. It needs to be a pleasant occupation that can, if necessary, be left for a few days without causing problems. It is better if it doesn’t involve anyone else unless you are a person that needs others around you to share the decisions and the work load.

There are, at this very moment, thousands of people quietly working away at a small business, often literally from their kitchen table and earning considerable sums of money. Their neighbors may know nothing of the little businesses they have started, but may wonder how they can afford the higher living standards they now enjoy. There is no reason why you cannot join the ranks of these little home beavers and raise your standard of living to a higher plane.

So, what kind of person are you? Are you an outdoor type who enjoys meeting other people and who revels in new challenges or more of a loner who would prefer to work at your own pace on your own? Would you rather work completely from your own home or keep your privacy and work in the community?

You really need to think these matters through before you jump in and start something you may later regret and find hard going. Take stock of your attributes and preferences first. Write down in list form everything you are good at and enjoy doing. Work should be a pleasure, not a boring mundane job just to make money.

Are you good at selling, talking to others, solving problems, working with your hands? Do you enjoy working with children or animals? Do you get pleasure from gardening, decorating, small repair and maintenance jobs?

You see, when you start to write everything down you get a much clearer picture of what you might like to do. If you have a hobby then that is something you enjoy doing otherwise you would not have kept at it for so long. Can you extend that which you enjoy so much as a hobby into a little business? You then have the best of both worlds, making money by doing something that pleases you and that you are good at.

There are many small business opportunities advertised but beware of those trying to seduce you with promises of big money for doing very little work. If it’s unbelievable then in most cases there is likely to be a catch to it and you may well be the sucker the promoter is looking for.

Remember – “there’s no such thing as a free lunch”!

Making the decision to start up on your own is relatively easy, particularly if you have thought it through as suggested above. The hard part is to actually start! Having made up your mind what it is you want to do, don’t think about it for too long trying to dot all the “i’s” and cross the “t’s”. In other words, don’t try to work out in advance all the little things that could possibly go wrong otherwise you’ll never get going.

Yes, make the basic arrangements and know what you want to do and then get on with it. It will be a learning curve and you will make mistakes – so what? The type of home business we are talking about wouldn’t have cost much to start in the first place so there is very little to lose financially even if the worst was to happen.

But who’s talking about failure? By starting slowly and learning to overcome the problems as you go along is the way to make progress. You are not going to upset many people by making mistakes, particularly if you are honest with them and are willing to rectify matters quickly. Don’t be discouraged if your little business is slow in making headway. Have faith in your abilities and reinvest a large portion of your profits back into the business until it is on a firm footing. Don’t eat your seed corn!

Procrastination is your worst enemy so set a firm date that you intend to start – and then get on with it.

If you’re having difficulties coming up with a list of everything you are good at and enjoy doing then maybe I can help by offering you some creative, novel and innovative ideas on a weekly basis…

You have nothing to lose, have you?

But it could start you on the road to financial security.

Working from home can be an exciting and exhilarating experience, a way of life where you are yo ur own boss and can make all the decisions for yourself. However, you succeed or fail by your own efforts so, unless you have previous experience of being self employed, it is important not to be too ambitious in the choice of work you may be considering.

If you wish to earn a little extra money to help pay off some debts, save for a holiday or perhaps enough for Christmas presents for the family then it is fairly easy to find something suitable. However, if you are thinking in terms of a full time work from home job, then a little more thought and planning is required.

For now let’s stay with jobs that will bring you in some extra money fairly quickly. Whatever you choose should not require a large cash outlay before you even start. It would be preferable to find something that needs no money up front at all.

You really need a basic job that you feel you can do within your own capabilities and feel comfortable with. A job that does not take you away from your family and friends for long periods or tie you down working all hours of the day and night. You need some relaxation, time to spend with your children or on your hobbies.

Now there’s a thought! Can you turn your hobby into a job that will pay you to do it? What are your hobbies? You may not be an expert in what you do but you must be reasonably proficient at it. So, could you show others how to do what you do for your own enjoyment, on a paying basis?

That’s just one line of thought but where do you find other jobs that will give you an income?

Well, the Internet is the obvious place to search but do beware of claims that you can make your fortune in a few short weeks. Remember, “there ‘aint no such thing as a free lunch”. It may take a lot of searching but the jobs are out there, somewhere, you just have to persevere to find them.

Find a need and satisfy it and you are in business. People need help in so many ways and are willing to pay for it, so be aware of people’s wants and needs and you could be in a lucrative job situation.

Consider the following declaration very carefully…

There are, at this very moment thousands of ordinary people quietly working away at a small business, often literally from their kitchen table and earning considerable sums of money. Their friends may know nothing of the simple businesses they have started, but may wonder how they can afford the higher living standards they now enjoy.

Now then, that statement was quite an eye opener wasn’t it and it’s also excellent food for thought, isn’t it?

You may well be wondering, “What on earth has that got to do with me? I haven’t got a clue about any of this. I’m just an ordinary person who goes out every day and works for someone who pays me a wage”

But, are you satisfied with that miserable wage that barely pays your bills?

Of course you aren’t..!

It’s not even enough money to live off decently, is it?

So, here’s where you can cash in to raise your personal standard of living amongst the ever falling economic gloom that you can see all around you…

You too can join the ranks of these busy home workers and raise your standard of living so that you too can afford the better things in life as well.
