Five Reasons You Need to Start a Home Business: Your Financial Future May Depend on It!

© 2007 Leslie Truex

It used to be that going to work for forty years would provide you with enough income to support your family today and a nice pension to support you in your retirement. Those days are gone. Financial gurus today are stressing the importance not relying on a job for your financial security. They are recommending that the best way to secure your family's finances now and in the future is through a part-time home based business.

Here are five reasons you NEED to start a home business:

1) Jobs are not secure or keeping up with the cost of living. More and more people are being laid off as work is outsourced to other countries or struggling industries are forced to cut back. Further, while the economy shows signs of growth, the money has not reached the hands of middle and low-income families. In fact, salaries have not kept pace with the cost of living making families poorer! Perhaps you have been wondering why you used to live okay on your salary and now you don't. Odds are you haven't had a raise in years and if you have, it wasn't enough to cover the increase in living expenses. Having a home-based business cannot only help fill this gap, but it can fund your retirement and even replace your income.

2) Job related pensions and retirements are not secure and may not be enough to support you. Everyone is aware of Enron and big losses investors have taken due to dot-com troubles. But many companies are also cutting back or eliminating their pension plans. Many don't offer any sort of pension plan at all. With Social Security in financial trouble, you can't expect to have the government or your boss secure your retirement. It's up to you. A part-time home business can help you earn extra money that you can invest in your future.

3) Tax benefits. Many of the tax advantages that benefit the rich are available to you when you have a home business. Please note, I'm not a tax expert so you should always consult a tax professional on your taxes. However, as a home business owner you have many tax deductions available to you on many things you are already paying for such as expenses to run your home and Internet access fees. While the government takes its 30% off the top of your salary, it allows businesses to first deduct their expenses for doing business, and then pay taxes on what's left over, which generally results in lower tax payments.

4) Money savings. If you are able to bring your business home full-time, you can save huge on the costs related to working such as commuting, childcare, etc. In fact, I make less now than I did when I worked outside the home, but I have more money! That's because nearly 3/4th of my income went to pay for work-related things.

5) Improved well being. Stress, lack of sleep, no time for oneself much less a family are all the result of jobs that ask you to work more and more for less and less. The health implications for this kind of life are staggering with increased depression, heart disease, and more. Adding a side income from a home business can take the burden off of fears of losing a job because if you get laid off, you have some savings to fall back on. But if you can replace your job with your business, you can set your hours, take time for yourself, spend more time with the family, and be able to take better care of you.

According to financial experts such as Loral Langemeir (The Millionaire Maker), David Bach (Finish Rich books), Robert Allen (Multiple Streams of Income,) Donald Trump and Robert Kyioski, financial security comes from being in control of your income and developing passive income streams. All of these authors indicate that it starts by being your own boss.

Marketing Tips

Is it Really this Easy to Get Free Advertising? by Nicole Dean

One of the best ways to get free advertising is to simply write articles and give them away. It’s a foreign concept to those new to online business, but you’ll be impressed with the results.

1. Why Should You Write Articles?
Newsletter and Website owners are desperate for content. As someone who owns a Website and publishes a newsletter, I can vouch for this. Every day, I search article lists, looking for quality information that will help my readers. And, every article I use from these resources gets published with the author’s information and a link to their site.

2. Why Give The Articles Away?
How much would you pay to include your ad in a newsletter or popular website? Anywhere from $5 to $80. Wouldn’t you prefer to have your ad placed for free? It’s easy to see the financial reward. Look at the bottom of this article. Right there, plain as day, you can see a resource box with my website included, so you have proof that this method works.

3. How do you write an article?
Take another look at the article that you’re reading right now. It’s short. It’s simple. I’m not a Literary Genius. I’m just being me.

Start by picking something you know about, or a problem that you can solve, and start writing. Personally, I enjoy shorter articles more than longer ones, so don’t feel you have to write a novel in order to get noticed. Some of the best articles are “Top 10 …” or “15 Ways to …” Just do it!

If you have difficulties writing, try recording yourself talking about a topic. Then, transcribe the conversation.

4. What should you include in the Author Bio?
This can be the hardest part of writing articles. Spend time on your resource box. Make it catchy. Show your personality or expertise.

Your Name - this shouldn’t be too hard.
Something interesting about you or your business - what is unique or special about your service or products?
Your website link - Don’t forget this one!
Special offer - Mention a freebie or special offer if you have one.
Don’t use this area to *sell*. Just grab interest so they’ll come to your site or sign up for your newsletter.

5. Who Wants Your Article?
After you’ve proof-read your article several times and spell-checked it, submit it to http://www.freereprintarticlesonline.com .

May you have lots and lots of free advertising!

Nicole Dean doesn’t pay for advertising – ever. She uses Article Marketing to get free advertising on websites and in newsletters worldwide. You can use articles to get free traffic, too. Visit http://www.EasyArticleMarketing.com to find out how.
