You Have What it Takes to Work at Home
I get e-mail daily asking about the best work-at-home opportunity or to review some get-rich-system.
These people are hoping to find a work-at-home option that is fast, easy and lucrative.
The problem is that fast, easy and lucrative is hard to find or achieve.
Part of that is because of the scams, but even those who find legitimate opportunities discover that getting started and making money doesn't come quickly when you have to learn about every detail of the opportunity from the product or service, to the marketing plan, to the distribution.
On the other hand, there are people who have fairly quick success in work-at-home endeavors by using what they've already got.
They are able to shorten the learning curve by using assets they already possess.
They sell their junk online and within a week have hundreds of extra dollars.
They turn their hobby into video series sold online.
Or sell their job skills to companies that pay double the amount than employer would.
Don't think you have an asset to sell? Think again.
In this Internet age, it's easier than ever to take your knowledge, skills, interests, hobbies, and passions and make money.
A mid-west family sells the tumbleweed that litters its yard.
A mom deep in debt and wanting to lose weight shared her story on a blog that not only has helped her lose weight, but allowed her to pay her debt as well.
Another mom, desperate for money sold the clothes her children had outgrown on eBay and now earns her living selling gently used name-brand children's items.
Everyone has something that can make money if they pay attention and take advantage of opportunities.
Here is how to use what you've got to make money from home.
Identify your assets: When we think of assets we think of things we own such as a house.
While that is an asset, it's also anything that can bring in money.
That includes: 1) Skills that you have.
These can from a job, volunteer work, or even from a hobby.
Can you type 80 words a minute or diffuse an irate customer? Are you a great cook or gardener? Those are skills.
2) Things that you know.
Again, this knowledge can come from your job, volunteer work or hobbies and includes things like software or tools that you know how to use.
Or it can be information you've gained through experience.
3) Activities that you love.
Imagine turning your hobby such as reading mysteries or collecting antique dolls, or a passion such as ending hunger into an income.
4) Items that you have.
These are tangible items that can be used as tools (such as a computer) or sold for money (such as tumbleweed or used clothes).
Make a list of all your assets.
If you're having trouble, think about solutions to common problems that you've solved, or what types of help or information people commonly seek from you.
Include everything no matter how crazy you think it is.
You'd be amazed at all the ways people are taking their unique and unusual assets and turning them into money.
Once you have your list, you need to determine how to make money from the assets.
There are three basic ways to making money: 1) Sell your skills.
This can be done by finding a work-at-home job, freelancing or starting a business.
2) Sell what you know or love.
This involves teaching others what you know or do.
Selling your knowledge can be done through coaching or creating informational products (i.
e.
ebooks, videos, etc).
3) Sell your stuff.
You can sell your clutter, your own creations, or even join an existing business opportunity that has the products you love.
I understand the desire to find a way to make money now.
I remember trying to find the next great sign-up- get-paid opportunity when I first started on my work-at-home journey.
But if you talk to people who are successfully working at home, you'll discover that they have tapped into the skills, knowledge, or passions they already have to find or create a job or home business.
The shortest path to work-at-home success is to focus on your current assets.
You already have the knowledge and experience that you can put to work right away and will bring you success much faster than looking for the quick fix.
