“CLICK HERE AND LEARN HOW TO MAKE $2000 NEXT WEEK” As liberating as this sounds, most people don’t make money that quickly online in a week. I, like most, would love to strike it rich on the internet this week. Home business scam artists make online income sound so easy. Unfortunately, after I read through their testimonials and ad jargon (for what seems like hours) they finally get to the punchline – cost. And, WOW, it is not cheap to make money online (according to them) and how do I know if they are advertising an honest work at home business?
When “Web Guru X” gets me all buttered up for my new yacht purchase, he then throws the cost out there and that is when the bubble bursts. Usually, though, the dream doesn’t die only because of the cost, it dies for multiple reasons:
* Usually, these ‘too good to be true’ online business offers don’t really tell you how you are going to make money. I realize the ‘experts’ don’t want to let their secret out, but you have to at least let me know what I’ll be doing.
* Some say they will send you their secrets for “FREE,” just pay for shipping. I tried that and the packet didn’t include anything more than additional testimonials and a $39.95 fee to be paid if I kept the packet after 15 days. No new information. FREE trials are good, just make sure they are honest home business trials, not just more of the same hype.
* They tell you that you don’t need to have any particular skill sets to do what they do. Well, you do need to know some stuff. When I receive a lot of ‘how to’ guides, I need a ‘how to’ guide to understand what they are talking about. Very few online programs make it easy.
Don’t feel like starting an online business, or making money online, is impossible though. There are honest, true, respectable people out there. If you want to make money online follow these steps:
* Make sure that whatever instructional offer you decide to try has a money back guarantee. You should be able to see if the business interests you before you lose money learning about it.
* Search the internet for information about the person, or guru’s, that are offering to teach you how they make money online. Don’t read just one critique, read a few. While one person didn’t like a program, you may find 10 more that loved it and made big money.
* Go and check out forums, or blogs, that talk about home based businesses. See what people like you are talking about when it comes to making money online. A lot of candid conversation about different products is available 24/7 for free.
Remember, Be Inspired To Change Your Life. There are so many reasons to work from home and so few reasons to stay at a dead end job. There are tons of reasons to look towards the internet for income instead of sending in your 100th resume that doesn’t get responded to. And, if you love your day job, why not make a little extra money from home for a rainy day fund, family vacation, or a nicer retirement cushion.
