There are thousands of free resources on the internet that are available to anyone who wants to use them.
Many people are discovering that they can use these free tools to make extra money working from home in their own part time business.
Once you know about these free tools and learn to use them, you can offer to provide your services to business owners who would gladly pay you to help them market their business online.
Most small business owners don't have the time to learn and use these resources.
If you do, you might be in a great position to start your own part time home based business.
And because you are using free online resources as your product, you can actually start your business without having to spend a dime.
As long as you have a computer and internet access, you have everything you need to start your own online consulting business.
All you really need from there is for someone to point you in the right direction to the right free tools, and I will do that right now.
Some of my favorite free online resources are from Google.
Here is a list of my top five free Google resources (that could be used to start your own business): 1.
G-mail: Free email from Google.
2.
Google Sites: Free website from Google.
3.
Google Images: Access to free photos, artwork and clipart from Google.
4.
YouTube (yes, Google owns YouTube): Free YouTube account to create free advertising.
5.
Google Places: Free business listing on the number one search engine on the planet.
Using these free resources, many smart entrepreneurs are starting their own home based business where they set up free email, website and marketing for local business owners.
They help small business owners create an online presence using nothing more than the free tools and services that are available online.
Basically, they become online marketing consultants.
Starting your own online consulting business is not as easy as falling off a log, but it's not rocket science either.
For most people, it's just a matter of becoming familiar with a few of the free online tools.
Facebook is another free online resource I'm sure you are familiar with.
Thousands of people have started home based businesses simply offering to create Facebook Fan-pages for businesses.
Like anything else, once you learn the basics of how to create an email address or upload a video to YouTube, you can almost do it in your sleep.
Turning that knowledge into a nice part time income in your own home based business is just a matter of letting people in your area know what you do.
The hard part is getting started.
But once you're up and running, this is a business that will run mostly on word of mouth advertising from one business owner to another.
And that is the best free advertising you can get!
