You must plan carefully and always return to your plan after the inevitable deviation.

I was in the park the other day and a young lady walked passed, pushing a pushchair with a cute baby asleep in it. As I watched them pass by, I started to think about the high dependency factor of human babies. They are totally dependent on whoever is looking after them. The only thing they do for themselves is breathe, pump blood around their little bodies and, well, pooh, wee and be sick. None of which they have a great deal of control over!

Now isn’t it a strange thing. The young of other species are much more self-reliant than the human baby. A newly born calf, for instance, can be up on its legs and tottering around in minutes of the birth.

The human baby, on the other hand, takes about three months before it can do the most rudimentary things for itself. And it takes several years for it to reach some form of independence. If the truth be told, I can’t see my two eldest children, well into their twenties, actually reaching independence in the true sense of the word for many years ahead!

Does independence come when a person reaches a certain age or status? No. Is anyone truly independent…ever? Probably not. But there are levels of independence depending on each individual’s circumstances.

We are all dependent on the person who pays for our everyday needs and desires. Whether or not this is an employer who pays you for the work that you do or a customer who pays you for delivering goods or a service, or whoever it is that supplies your money. Without that support, your life would be immeasurably more difficult.

So why do people strive to become independent?

Well, it’s probably the worry that the source of that life saving money may be cut off for whatever reason. Redundancy is now in the air as a threat to people’s way of living. But of course, many other things can threaten someone’s livelihood.

• If you fall seriously ill, you will more than likely be unable to work. A fall in your living standards is probably the consequence.
• If the company you work for becomes bankrupt, you’re unlikely to receive any golden handshake with the inevitable worry and fall in living standards.
• If your partner becomes so ill that you need to stay at home to look after him/her, life can be financially as well as emotionally difficult.

How can you prepare for these occurrences?

Well, the simple answer is to work for yourself from home.

This is about as close as most people get to independence. Of course, you’re still dependent on numerous people, but the thing about working for yourself from home is that you feel far more in charge of your own destiny. You can arrange your own work schedule. If you want to work, as I often do, at 3 o’clock in the morning, that’s fine, because you can stay in bed the next day if you want to.

You have to be focussed and disciplined, of course; otherwise you could slip into lazy habits and start struggling to make money. But if you can steel yourself against the many distractions you are bound to face, working from home has many advantages.

Now the internet is a fantastic source of home work. Set up your own little office with your computer and internet connection and the world is your oyster! Sounds idyllic and if you plan things properly there’s no reason why you should not succeed.

What you need is a good plan along with a sense of direction.

Write down your goals….Long Term, Medium Term and Short Term.

Then break down the Short term goals into Monthly, then Weekly, then Daily activities that you are certain you can achieve.

Tie your Short term goals to your Medium term ones and then do the same for your Medium and Long term goals.

It’s like driving from say Brighton to Edinburgh. You probably could do it by just setting out and pointing the car in the rough direction of north. Use the direction of the sun and the prevailing winds and the North Star at night! It would take some time and a lot of false turns, but in the end, you should arrive in Edinburgh.

However, how much easier the journey is with a map and even easier with a Sat. Nav. You can make detours to explore something interesting on the way, but then you can return to your planned route and continue confidently on your journey.

That’s what your written goals can be. A map or plan of action. If you need to stop for a while and move sideways, that’s no problem, because you can then get back on course again by looking at your daily, weekly and monthly goals.

So, prepare carefully, plan wisely and set your goals.

If you’re new to the idea of creating websites and blogs to sell, I highly recommend you take a look at “Project Archimedes” by Ben Shaffer.

Like many other things in life, the secret to making money flipping websites is simple.  The secret is, you have to have a method, a strategy that works time after time, something that is repeatable no matter what market conditions are and irrespective of how the economy is doing.

Ben has done an excellent job at showing you exactly what you need to do to get started.

The quickest growing part on the Internet now is the web hosting market. Using Website Source Turnkey Reseller hosting plans has made it possible to build flourishing online businesses and excellent search engine marketing. Using a private label, you can resell your web hosting space and make money as well. Doing this can compliment your main business and is an ideal venture for home based entrepreneurs. The whole of idea of reseller web hosting is to sell different kind of web hosting solution.

But small hosting companies purchase a small reseller hosting plan or a dedicated server and set up an establishment that sells hosting solutions to individual customers. This is done by bigger hosting companies too, but on a larger scale for higher profits. Some of the firms that accept this idea are BlueHost, HostGator, etc.

For the purpose to begin a Reseller web hosting business, this is a one-by-one step of how to begin this business. At the beginning, you have to choose the platform that you want to use. There are plenty of open source software programs compatible for Linux as compared to those available for Windows. This is the reason that Linux falls cheaper. The next step is to select the control panel. The control panels can used can be anywhere from basic to fully loaded. For web hosting resellers, a control panel is available to set up the other web hosting accounts. The third step is to select a good web host; the success of the business depends on the quality of the web host provider. So when looking for a web host, most customers consider support, uptime, communication and price.

The another step in beginning a Reseller Hosting business is to setup the package and cost of web hosting. The ratio of the bandwidth and disk space that can be offered by you depends on the ratio of bandwidth and disk space you have. Yahoo hosting provides best web hosting server for reseller. Think about every possibility and if required you can change to a better plan and provide the web hosting packages on this support. This should then be followed by setting up a business website, which helps in promoting your plans and is a necessity if you are a part of the web hosting industry. Other things that should be taken care of once you are settled is to make the website e-commerce equipped, with the help desk, billing and e-mail responders, including welcome mail and an excellent marketing strategy.

When I was the director of economic development for the municipality I lived in, I would frequently be contacted by businesses in the area who wanted to get a low-interest loan (generally 1%-3%) from our economic development fund.

The fund was there to help create jobs for residents of the community. In exchange for a low interest rate, the company would promise to create as many new jobs as they could. If they requested $50,000 they had to create two new jobs, if they needed $100,000 they would have to create 4 jobs, etc…

While I was director of the fund, one of the companies my predecessor had provided a low-interest loan to started missing their quarterly payments. It was my practice to call the owner, schedule a meeting with them that included their financial director and/or accountant and review the reason for their missed payment. Of course, I would be there to get them to make an immediate payment, or at least get a firm date when the missed payment would be made.

During the course of this meeting I would always inquire about their current business situation. Did they have sufficient working capital? Were orders increasing or declining? Were there any changes to their fixed or variable monthly expenses and overhead?

Were they in the middle of labor or contract negotiations? etc…

The last question I would always ask, if there weren’t any significant changes to their operations, was about their *marketing practices*…

I asked them if they had products and services they could provide to their past customers to help increase their cash flow. They said that the company’s reps keep in touch with customers to make sure they are serviced and take orders for supplies and parts, etc… but during these ‘service calls no additional offer is
ever made to the customer. If the customer needed something, they said, they would ask for it.

I asked when the last time a letter with an additional offer, or even a catalog was sent to their customers. “Never” or “years ago” was almost always the answer.

In the case of this one company, it became clear that they didn’t have a clue about the lifetime value of a customer, how to work backend products and services or the idea of an endorsed mailing, up-selling, cross-selling, etc.. They had a customer base of 35,000 and had NEVER mailed to them or tried to sell them anything else! They never tried an endorsed mailing or any kind of joint venture.

Is this typical?

Sadly, for most established business, yes, it is typical.

When I asked the president of the company about this he said, “What would we write to them about? Besides I don’t want to ruin our relationship. We’re not barkers.”

The reference to a ‘barker’ was a pretty typical mindset by most well established companies. They didn’t want to appear too aggressive to their customers, like a sideshow at a carnival the ‘barker’ yells out at passersby to come and see the lady with the 14 fingers. If it wasn’t for the fact that they has a good product that was in repeat demand by their marketplace, they would have been out of business a long time ago. The only thing keeping them alive was repeat orders, but even that was declining and was the reason they were missing payments.

They had a customer list of 35,000 and never mailed to them!

This mindset he had was simply wrong for the market conditions he and his company were facing. Instead of ruining a relationship, bringing excellent products and services to the attention of your customer base can only strengthen the relationship. As long as the products are really going to benefit your customer, you are doing your customers and prospects a favor!

No wonder they were having trouble making their payments. They had a very negative image about being too aggressive with selling company’s products and services to their customers and it was hurting their business.

Don’t ever assume that just because a company has a big building and several hundred employees that it understands how to build relationships with customers or how to effectively market themselves.

In this case, the company was built by a very dynamic and entrepreneurial individual (the current Pres/CEO’s grandfather) and has been on cruise control since he passed away years ago.

If they don’t fix their mindset soon (to be more like their grandfather’s), they will be out of business.

If you have started on your very first Internet marketing venture, some AdWords tips can help get the ball rolling for you. Making money with Google AdWords is very easy, and yet most people fail miserably at it! Using AdWords effectively requires a precise combination of art and science. You should be able to get that creative edge on your competitors, and you should also be able to manipulate the numbers game!

Designing The Ad

• Be specific. This is the most important of all AdWords tips that you’ll get. You only want clicks that can convert to sales. So be specific in the header-line of your Ad. If you sell floral pattern bed sheets, mention the entire thing in the heading. You don’t want people looking for geometric patterned sheets clicking through!
• What’s-In-It-For-Me. Yes, tell the customer how they would benefit by using your product. Find out what they need, and then provide it to them.
• USP. What makes your product unique? What is the advantage in choosing your product over any other brand?

Keyword Selection

• Cost. Most articles on AdWords tips will tell you about finding a balance between the popularity of keywords and their CPC. Sometimes incorrect spellings can also get you an abundance of targeted traffic while keeping the CPC low.
• Targeted traffic. For exact keyword phrases, use quotes and square brackets, like NYC Theatre Tickets or [Lion King Broadway Tickets].
• Freebie hunters. Use -free to keep them away as they aren’t likely to result in any sales.

The Extra Edge

• Own website. What most articles on AdWords tips fail to tell you is that it is also important to have your own website, with a proper opt-in form so that you can build a mailing list of all visitors. People who don’t buy now can change their minds later.
• Landing page. It is better to have a separate landing page for each of your products, just like a separate Ad for each of them. This ensures a better customer experience and makes it easier for you to track the individual conversion rates of products.

Number Crunch!

• Budget. Another hard-to-find point in the most common AdWords tips lists! You need to make a budget, as to how much you can bear to spend per sale, and then stick to it.
• Profit. Ascertain your profit/sale. Then use that data to work upon decreasing cost or increasing sale, so as to reach the desired profit.

So that’s about it! The above five AdWords tips can help you get your profits rocketing up. Oh, did I miss the fifth one? Well, the last tip in my list is Testing. You can simply never have enough of it. You need to keep testing and re-testing; keep changing a word here and a phrase there; keep improving! And don’t forget to enjoy the experience!
