Home Jobs Online – How to Find and Get One
© 2007 Leslie Truex
Wouldn't it be nice to roll out of bed, slip on a robe and slippers and shuffle down the hall to your home office to work? Today over 137 million people world-wide do just that at least part time as more and more companies take advantage of the cost savings that telecommuting programs offer. One of the best places to find these companies is online, but you must beware. While more and more legitimate work-at- home jobs can be found online, so can scams. Here's what you need to know and do if you are looking for a real work-at-home job online.
1) Understand that you aren't going to sign up to work at home. Telecommuting work is found in the same way that traditional work is found and usually involves an application or resume, and interview process.
2) You can't pay to get hired. Any company that says you can work for it by sending some money is not offering a job. It's okay to invest in a good work-at-home job database or hiring a professional resume writer, but you should never, ever, ever, pay to get hired.
3) Be open to many job types. Instead of thinking, "I want to sit home and type," think about all the skills you have that can be used at home. Are you a good researcher? Do you have good phone skills? Are you highly organized? Are you creative? Can you write persuasively? Make a list of all your skills, experiences, talents and hobbies and search for jobs that need those attributes.
4) Learn to do a job that has a high demand for workers. There are certain job types that have many job openings right now such as copywriting, customer service, web and graphic design, medical transcription, writers, and more. If you can't do any of these jobs, why not learn how? Most can be either self-taught or learned through an online or correspondence course.
5) Look for work where jobs are posted. Most people get in scam trouble because they look for the wrong types of jobs in the wrong places. Use job search sites not search engines to find work-at-home jobs. Sign up for free ezines that deliver work-at-home jobs to your email box.
6) Be professional. I can't believe some of the email I receive from people who want to work at home. They tell me they can type and yet their letters have typos and grammatical errors. Or they say they want to work at home, but provide no information on what they are qualified to do. You have one chance to convince a potential employer that you can do the job. The employer doesn't care about your childcare hassles or illness. He only cares about who is the best person to do the job. So all your interactions should focus on what you can do for the employer.
Today, the opportunities to get hired to work from home are endless and continue to grow. But if you are to get hired to work at home, its important to understand what work-at-home jobs are, why companies offer them, and how you can position yourself to get hired. By understanding the six telecommuting rules outlined here, you will find real jobs faster and improve your chances of getting hired.

Small Business Marketing — 6 Cheap Ways To Promote Your Business
By Mario ChurchillHave you ever wanted to have your own business? Have you ever wished you earn extra profits and not just depend on your husband’s salary or even with your own income? If you do, then, having a small business is one of the best endeavors you can have.
However, your small business will never be successful unless you know how to market your products effectively. Among the various tools used in businesses, marketing is one of the most important.
The continued existence of businesses is fully dependent on marketing. Creating the channels of communication to fully promote, advertise, or put on the market various products and services is the main responsibility of marketing.
Giant companies have created marketing department to focus directly on different marketing issues and strategies. However, if you only have a small business, you have to focus more on how to put your product in the market and make it known to the public.
Here are some small business marketing ideas:
1. Go online
Websites are the perfect tool — they last longer and reach a wider audience than traditional print ads. Plus, they are more affordable.
With the proliferation of information technology these days, many businesses are utilizing the potential of the Internet in promoting their products and services.
Some companies specializing in website development offer affordable packages. However, since you are into small business, it is best that you opt for free websites. So if you are looking for an even cheaper alternative, you can create your own company blog for free.
2. Give free samples
Small businesses may not afford to hire advertising agencies to handle their marketing strategies. Hence, getting alternative solutions is best.
By giving free samples, consumers become aware of the kind of quality your products or services have. As they say, what good is an amazing product if no one knows it is amazing?
As a businessperson, it is not wise for your product to be well-kept secret forever. Let people try your product or service—create sample sizes if the expense gets too high—and let the spread the word for you!
3. Create affiliate programs
Has your business reached a plateau? Are you getting the same customers every single month? Well, teaming up with another company is a great way to revamp your business without the usual hassle. It helps you refresh your brand image and expand your reach.
4. Print press releases
Although they are usually published in broadsheets, you may also consider tweaking them for magazine and radio releases as well. With the proper wording and timing, press releases are the perfect way to maintain hype for your business.
5. Write e-zines or newsletters
Providing good reading material about your particular field creates awareness and interest among the public. It also establishes you as a knowledgeable industry leader. If your work has been published, then you are probably someone people should listen to.
Plus, with the combined number customers and subscribers, you company will grow at an even faster rate.
6. Create a good product
Ads can only do so much. Instead of putting money on advertising, concentrate on creating a great product. Nothing sells a good product better than a good product, even if what you have is only a small business.
It really pays to have a diversified, well planned, and well thought of small business marketing plan. A good product will get you nowhere unless other people knows about it.
