Profitable Home Based Businesses For U

Yesterday I was made privy to a very exciting announcement and have been invited to join a select group of work from home marketers to spearhead what may be the most exciting program with which I have yet been involved.

Are you aware that around 90% of the websites online are inaccessible to people with disabilities? Every day more and more people within this significant demographic go online to try and do business and end up leaving frustrated because their needs are not being met. In the United States alone that represents some 54 million people with a combined spending power of more than 1trillion dollars, (Harris Poll) . So, that means every day a vast number of websites are losing out on hundreds if not thousands of dollars.

The sad fact is that most web developers do not even stop to think about the needs of people with disabilities when they create sites and do not factor in the necessary design modifications. As a case in point were you aware that a special software exists which is known as a screen reader and that this can actually help the blind to use the internet? Yep, it’s true. It actually reads what’s on screen to them. But other technologies also exist for helping all manner of people with disabilities use the internet to conduct their everyday business, visit sites of interest etc.

So .. the problem is all about the way in which websites are designed.

Now, I’m happy to say that a nationally recognized and award winning disability consulting firm is about to change all of this with its launch of a bold and ambitious new project called ACCESSIBLENET. The end goal is to create and redesign more than 30,000 accessible websites over the next few years for the disabled worldwide, thus enhancing the pleasure of their online experience. This is where you can benefit as part of our team.

I am looking for individuals who are interested in financial independence and who recognize this ground floor opportunity for what it is, who would like to promote a range of products and services available to businesses including the likes of everything from Accessible Web Design, to Copy Writing to Pay Per Click Advertising and Campaign Management, to Mentoring and Coaching .. and just about everything else in between .. all for the purpose of helping businesses and other site owners increase their reach so as to better the online experience of our disabled viewers.

Those of you who take up the offer to participate in this ‘one of a kind’ program will be provided with extensive, easy to understand training and be well compensated. And .. you will be helping a heap of folk in the process .. so all very worthwhile! But, having said that .. I am not looking for folk who just want to add this as an affiliate product to the dozens of others they have which they dredge up when they cannot think of anything better to promote.

I am looking for folk wanting in on the ground floor of this exciting new opportunity who are prepared to go all out to build themselves the business of their dreams.

Well .. it has been with great anticipation that I have looked forward to the arrival of the Thirty Day Challenge. Not quite there yet .. but pre-season is well underway .. and if this is a taste of what is to come then I am revved up on all six cylinders!

I had to concur with a highly respected colleague of mine .. an accomplished marketer who in the course of a conversation with me observed how jaded some people can be when it comes to recognizing a good thing. Despite his credentials in the online marketing world, when he went to make a pitch for the Thirty Day Challenge folk sensed he was trying to sucker them into something. I was left to reflect that this cynicism may perhaps be in part due to the inherent mistrust some folk have had with the ‘old school’ marketing methods employed by many of the so-called ‘gurus’ and others touting for their share of the online dollar.

And the sad thing? This guy is the last person in the world who would want to ram anything down someone’s throat. But such are the ways of the world ..

Anyway .. keep your eyes peeled over the next few weeks .. as I update you on what is happening in the world of the Thirty Day Challenge.

Gotta say .. Ed Dale’s move across to the Flock browser with recommended add-ons improving its functionality was the right way to go. Wow! Even though we have yet to be shown a few more Flock secrets, I have to say I am impressed. Access to all 2500 of my Facebook friends from the sidebar - any one accessible at the click of the mouse button! Same goes for my Twitter contacts … And direct access into Twitter via the Twitter Bar .. without breaking out of the flow and having to move away from the browser .. great stuff! We will be using both Twitter and Twirl for communicating amongst our teams once the Thirty Day Challenge goes live.

Clearly, Google Reader has it over Bloglines which we were using last year .. and used properly will have you completely up to date with everything going on across the internet whatever your niche, whether it be in the work-from-home genre, your favourite hobby or whatever. Now at your fingertips .. a super powerful tool which will enable you to totally dominate your niche. Ed’s also got another nice little surprise in store enabling you to recover an extra hour of your time each day.

With the Thirty Day Challenge being the single biggest marketing event on the internet attracting literally thousand of participants .. why wouldn’t you want to join in and see what all the excitement is about? Oh .. sorry .. forgot to mention .. no cost for this, mind ..

I’ve taken a couple of hours out today to continue my way through Peter Koning’s Facebook Payday kit .. but I can see me making repeated return visits in order to digest all that Peter has compiled here, so as to grow my own online business profits. I’d wrongly figured that the main focus would be on Facebook’s social ads .. boy was I off the mark!

I’d also expected that any remaining content would just take the form of a general guide offering tips on ‘How To Use Facebook’, with a bit of information thrown in here and there on ways to make an income or increase one’s income using this all popular social networking site. Not so … Rather .. we are invited to observe highly successful folk from diverse backgrounds who right here and now are making an enviable income off Facebook and we are given the unique privilege first hand of being shown just how they’ve done this .. so we can do it too.

Facebook as it stands today with a population of some 80,000,000 active users offers marketers an unprecedented opportunity to tap into this huge potential market. Never, has the timing been more perfect! So Peter’s providing us with an historical perspective of Facebook before showing us how to go about monetizing makes sound sense.

His chapter on mind-set is a must read to avoid the pitfall of blundering on in thinking that ‘old school’ marketing tactics will work. Such an approach will prove catastrophic.

The course unfolds in a series of logical steps and provides a number of scenarios showing how the traditional online marketing models (selling product, selling services, affiliate marketing etc) can be put into practice on what is now the Number One social networking site for online marketers and entrepreneurs. As an added note of interest the pretty staggering profits to be made from the creation or monetizing of existing Facebook applications is also revealed.

An easy, straight-forward step-by-step guide is included showing you how to set up a solid yet transparent profile, as well as a raft of useful tips on how to build bonding with the other users with whom you are connecting, while still never losing sight of the business goal which is to generate revenue for yourself. So, in addition to finding ways to promote within Facebook, (and many tips on marketing and marketing research are provided) you are also shown how to migrate those persons interested in your product/service across to your external websites, blogs and mailing lists.

The various free and paid methods by which you can use Facebook to promote your business right now are discussed in much detail .. with everything from group creation strategy to the business application of Facebook Pages being covered.

Peter’s take on the social ads I mentioned above is quite revealing .. perhaps not quite what you would expect .. and there is a separate PDF included devoted to this new pay per click model.

I found especially interesting the many ways in which one can leverage the efforts of others via the many different user applications to get one’s presence or product “out there”. This all powerful viral aspect of Facebook is particularly impressive and dare I say it .. only a small percentage of Facebook users (and indeed online marketers) have begun to come to grips with the power they have at their fingertips with these applications. Well .. Facebook Payday changes all of that!

Any marketer looking to grow their own profitable online business using the all powerful interactive features of Facebook will benefit immensely from the material offered with the Facebook Payday course.

As an affiliate marketer you will be all too familiar with the tedious job of logging into multiple affiliates services just to keep track of your sales. Time consuming? Tell me about it!

Serious affiliate marketers just do not have the time to go checking all their affiliate stats in detail when a simple overview usually suffices. Well .. now they no longer have to go check which merchants are getting the clicks or check what sales, if any, they are getting.

Enter … Affmeter PRO 2.0 - a standalone new generation software interface that allows you to monitor the performance of merchants on your site so that you can substitute the poor performers with the paying programs, streamline your ads and increase click through .. that and so much more .. and all of this at the click of a button.

I particularly like the automated stats retrieval function which displays a little pop up box in the bottom right hand corner of my screen, allowing me regular displays of my earnings for the day. A great little motivator, when you are able to see at a glance those checks rolling in.

The newest features in Affmeter Pro 2.0 include:

* smarter set-up of your Google Adwords account
* a tool enabling affiliates to compare their performances in between different time periods
* an enhanced user interface with more navigational capabilities
* a faster ‘data fetch’ capability
* an enhanced ability to selectively monitor merchants’ performances.

There is a widely supported network of programs including Commission Junction, Clickbank, Linkshare, Affiliate Future, OnenetworkDirect, Clixgalore and Goodle Adsense .. along with a number of other high profile networks.

In my view the “icing on the cake” is the excellent support forum and wide knowledge base designed to assist the Affmeter PRO 2.0 user by answering any problems arising at any time.

The smart affiliate looking to same time and make more money will see this well supported software pay for itself time and time again .. as more and more of those affiliate checks continue to roll on in while you effectively keep track of your sales.
