Learn The Right Way To Choose Your MLM Company ...

Every opportunity on this page meets the criteria of number four, i.e. low startup costs.

It does not make sense for folks with very little income and savings to pay THOUSANDS of dollars to enter a program when those dollars will be needed for advertising and other operational costs.

Selecting a Home Based Business

How to Start a Home Based Business for Stay at Home Moms




Following these 5 easy steps on how to start a home based business for stay at home moms will have you working in your shorts and earning an extra income in a very short amount of time.



Step 1- Research Legitimate Home Based Businesses:



No matter what business you are thinking of, always first look for legitimate home based businesses.



You could sit at your computer and Google search "Legitimate Home Based Business", all day long and receive pages full of promising looking opportunities, but you can't be sure they are real.



A real legitimate home business will have full company support and a phone number, kind of like the old days when your mom dealt with Avon.



Select the company you are interested in and call the support line to ask for company references.



The next thing you'll do from the comfort of your home is call those references and ask how they are doing with the product you are thinking of promoting.



If the reports are good, then also consider step #2.



Step 2- Money Making Opportunities:



Opportunities to make money are all over the internet, but the question is: "which one is best for a stay at home mom with kids, pets and other responsibilities?"?



When you think of a work at home businesses you also must consider your working hours around your other responsibilities.



Work at home moms aren't just sitting in front of a computer playing on Facebook all day.



They have kids, pets and house chores to deal with also.



Make sure you choose a home business that allows you the time you need to be a multi tasker, and still see huge rewards from your efforts.



With that said, you may want to consider an internet home business as in step #3.



Step 3- Internet Home Business:



An internet home Business based on Multi Level Marketing (MLM) is a perfect stay at home mom business.



The MLM internet home business of today allows for flexible hours and long term residual pay based on just one sale.



If you are even a little bit internet savvy, you could be earning an extra income in a few short weeks while still walking the dog and picking up the kids from school.



Just be sure to find a Multi Level Marketing program that pays atleast 5 levels deep. These secure long term residual commissions for many years after your first sale.



4th- How to Start a Business:



Let's assume you have made the choice to be a stay at home mom and have found the business you would like to pursue, now you simply need to know how to start a business.



To start your own business does not have to be complicated or time consuming.



A few hours a day between changing diapers or packing lunches is all that is required.



Just set a few hours aside to devote to your new home business as you would if you were still working a 9 to 5 at your old job.



If you followed the advice above, and have found a legitimate home business, you'll have plenty of studying to do. Get a cup of coffee, pen, paper and writing tablet, then just sit at your desk or sofa, and read the sales procedures.



If you have joined an MLM program, you'll also have an upline you can call on for support.



Grab another cup of coffee, get your cell phone, and make that call! Your upline will be happy to help you because if you don't make money, they don't make money!



5th- Starting Your Own Business:



Starting your own business has it's rewards.



Your dreams of replacing windows, painting the home or buying a new car are all available to you if you remember one thing:



It's called a "Work at home business" because you actually have to do a little work!



So when starting your own business, treat it like a business and set aside some time to learn about your program. The long term rewards will be well worth your early efforts.



Keep these last few thoughts of how to start a home based business for stay at home moms in your head while you are searching for a new work at home business strategy.



a. Look for a Company with Low Up Front Start Up Costs.

Coaching Club

Below is an email received from a friend...


In a private consultation I had last week, I was talking with a very smart woman who happened to be new at online marketing.


We were going over her autoresponder series – a week-long series of lessons on selling real estate in this down economy – and we were talking about the words she was using in her text.

What I liked about what she had written was that the language was casual and "real" sounding, rather than the artificial, overly formal "corporate" style that most people end up writing their first time around.

In other words, she'd write things like "Do you remember back in the 'good old days' of real estate -- just a couple of years ago -- when all you had to do was list a home, and you'd get 5 offers to buy it? Well here's how to go back in time as soon as tomorrow."


That's refreshing to read, and much better than "Circa 2007, the real estate market was growing at a momentous clip, and offers followed rapidly behind the posting of a home on the multiple listing services. Since that time, the industry has entered into a precipitous decline, as housing inventory nationwide has ballooned, while the number of buyers has plummeted. What follows is a solution to that problem."

See what I mean?

One draws you in, and quickly absorbs you into a real conversation. You forget you're reading and instead enter into some sort of a trance as you follow the story and become involved. (Yes, even in just two lines of text!)

The other just puts you off, makes you conscious that you're reading something, spending your time, and prevents you from any emotional connection at all with the text.

I suppose that the more formal kind of text might work if you were writing technical papers or clinical studies for an industry publication, but it just doesn't work when you are writing your website, your blog posts, your product literature, your autoresponders or your advertisements.

And just about everything you do for your online business is "writing" on some level or another.

So how do you know what to write, or how to write it?

Well, that all comes back to this month's topic in the Coaching Club -- Knowing Your Customer.

Here are some things to think about, with regards to your target prospect, when writing for your business.


* Are your prospects expert or novice with this topic?

* Are they trying to prevent a problem or are they trying to solve a problem?

* Are they at the beginning of their search or near the end?

* Are they just researching or ready to buy?

* What are their beliefs about the topic?


How do you know ANY of these things?


Well, you'd know them automatically, once you knew who your customer was. For example, let's talk about my client's target market: real estate agents, looking for buyers.

* Are they experts with real estate? Yes. But they care more about selling a house today in their neighborhood, rather than about real estate statistics nationwide.

* Are they trying to prevent or solve a problem? Clearly, they want to solve the problem of "houses are hard to sell these days." What they want is to find more people to sell houses to -- since there are plenty of houses available to sell at the moment.

* Are they at the beginning of their search or at the end? They've probably been looking for a solution to this problem for a year or two. Chances are, they are disillusioned and depressed because nothing they've done recently -- lawn signs, networking, open houses, newspaper ads -- is working any more. What they want is something new, that will work TODAY.

* Are they just researching or ready to buy? I bet that once someone hears what this client is offering, they'd instantly understand why it works, and would sign up in an instant.

* What are her target's beliefs about the topic? Well, they probably think that real estate used to be easy to sell, because it really was true that all they had to do was put a house up for sale and they'd get a half dozen offers that day, or soon after. It was THAT easy. And they all wish it were easy like that again.

This last point is truly critical, and a point not made often enough.

It's very hard to change someone's beliefs. Changing your beliefs means that you've got to admit that you were wrong about your belief in the past -- and no one likes to admit they were wrong.

So if you can write your advertisements and marketing materials to agree with your customer's core beliefs, you are more likely to get him to agree with the rest of what you are saying.

That's why telling a story about the good old days -- a time that ALL real estate agents wish they could go back to -- is so powerful. Because it taps into the deepest, most basic desires of her customers.


You should do the same.

So how did my client know what her own target prospect believes?

She got to know her prospect.

You should do the same.
