Hey everyone…this video is spreading like wildfire all over the internet!

On this video/interview, 3 Millionaires (Tony Robbins, Frank Kern, & John Reese) discuss a HUGE problem that plagues virtually everyone in our industry!

There is NOTHING to buy here…Just an AMAZING life lesson.

Tony reveals the ONE huge reason he has created more millionaires than anyone alive. Trust me. Don’t buy ANYTHING from ANYBODY (even me) UNTIL you watch this video, 1st!

This is arguably one of the most important life lessons you will ever learn and I would be doing you a HUGE dis-service if I didn’t share it with you!

Enjoy…and feel free to leave a comment on the blog telling me your thoughts on content contained in the video!

As more and more people are facing layoffs and higher job demands, one business that seems relatively unaffected by the fluctuating economy is home based businesses.. One of the reasons that home businesses are booming in the current unstable environment, is because that do not have unmanageable overhead costs. Since there’s no rent to pay on out-of-home office space and no salaries to pay (other than the business owners,) home based businesses are a way for everyone to make a decent living as well providing a flexible work schedule, high profit margins and time off at will.
An unfortunate repercussion of the dip in the economy is that people have been losing their jobs. With any downside however, there is an upside. This dip has created the opportunity for many people to do something they never thought they would be able to do: create a successful home based business. Another upside to the dip in the economy is that the market has more and more quality, talented people offering their services as freelancers and independent contractors. This is not only good news for them because they can benefit from the freedom and flexibility that comes with being your own boss, but it’s great news for all the home businesses on the look-out for talent.
There are literally hundreds, if not thousands, of home based businesses to choose from so it is a fantastic opportunity for people to match their strengths with a business passion they may have.
Homes based businesses can be started in categories ranging from candle business, to vitamins, to freelance writing, consulting and even virtual assisting! They can be started up often with little to no investment and range from part time to full time and temporary to permanent. When starting a home based business the sky is the limit!
What may separate you from any other business is your knowledge and love of whatever it is you may be selling. When choosing a business that you wish to start, put a lot of thought in to what exactly your strengths are as well as what makes you happy. This is a winning combination that is practically guaranteed to bring you success!

As we all know, Twitter is great for social interaction with people around the world, but as a tool for your business…it’s invaluable. Twitter is being used more and more for marketing your business, but it’s more than just marketing. It’s for making deeper connections for you and your business. You can also promote products on there through affiliate marketing, or getting people to tweet your website or product or even have them retweet it.
You can tweet your blog posts, you can tweet specials you’re having on your website, you can tweet affiliate programs to earn money, and you can interact with your customers (very important in relationship building). Using Twitter in your business endeavors is one of the great ways to establish yourself as an expert in your field. You can not only tell others about your website…but you can (and should) also give little nuggets of information or wisdom.
Once you have established yourself as a good Twitterer then people will respond to your tweet, they may even look forward to it because they enjoy that interaction with you or you provide such great content that they can use it for their day, retweet it to their followers, or just have a conversation with you.
Giving quality tweets to your followers is of the utmost importance. When you provide quality tweets, the likelihood of your followers RT’ing (Re-Tweeting) you is high, which in turn will provide more followers for you if others find you valuable.
You can also host a Tweetup with other people in a local area and this type of event brings people together and lumps everyone’s followers together as well. In this setting you have access to other people’s followers because they’re tweeting about you and you’re tweeting about them. A Tweet up is a physical event where everyone (usually locally) gets together and tweets! It’s a great way to get a lot of new followers and lots of attention to your name!
To show that you’re really contributing to Twitter, you should reply to people you follow, RT (re-tweet) their interesting posts, and have conversations with other people. You want to show that you’re not a robot or someone who only wants to toot their own horn. You want to connect with others. You could always set up auto-tweets about your business or affiliate links at night and during the day have real conversations with people. Twitter is a great communication and relationship tool.
Tweet your business and yourself, and both will grow!
Provide value to the twitter community, and you’ll see much faster success!

Did you know that you could get in trouble for doing things like following too many people in one day, using auto-follow too often, and having “questionable” tweets? Twitter is cracking down more and more on the Tweeps (that’s Twitter people) who are only using Twitter to spam.
It’s called getting “Twitter Slapped” and it’s the last thing you want to have happen to your account. A “Twitter Slap” is where Twitter suspends your account for a week (or longer) because they deemed your account as spam or as being questionable if a human is using it or it’s a robot running the show.
This is how NOT to get Twitter slapped, and then I’ll tell you how to get your account back.
1) Don’t follow too many people in a day by using an autofollow. You should manually follow your followers or find them yourself using search features. A lot of programs offer auto-follow, through keywords or mass following programs. You can safely mass follow people through sites like Tweepular. But those people may not be interested in your kind of tweets. Stick to manual.
2) You can use a service to unfollow those who are not following you (called “Tweepular”), but use this tool every few days. Mass unfollowing people so you can follow more people will send a red flag to Twitter. You can safely unfollow a few each day if you need to clear up your list, but do so manually.
3) You can set up a service to Auto-Tweet or Tweet Later, but don’t use this exclusively. You must Tweet yourself a few times each day. Twitter knows when you’re using a program to send auto-tweets. If you do chose to use auto-tweets then space out the tweets sporadically.
Of course you can do all of these things and you may or may not get Twitter slapped, but if you do… it will take more than a week to get it back. It will take you emailing Twitter support a few times and then they’ll get back to you and reactivate it. You may not get it back at all, but I’ve seen Twitter be very kind about this and basically slapping someone on the wrist, telling them not to do it again.
If Twitter does not get back to you after your first attempt at contacting them, then keep at it! I actually ended up sending 20 e-mails over the course of 3 days telling them to re-instate my account. Yup, that’s right, I got twitter slapped!
Remember…follow the simple advice above and you’ll keep from experiencing the same frustrations that I did

As the economy tightens, more and more people are looking for ways to supplement their income. One great way to do this is by starting a home based business. A home based business can offer not only another source of income, but also provide flexibility and freedom that a typical nine to five job may not allow.

A successful home based business can allow people with small children to work hours that are conducive to their family needs, and also provide a way to provide a source of income that is often far above minimum wage.

There are several home based businesses that pay well. Some businesses that typically pay above average, are virtual personal assistant positions, blog writing and even product based home businesses such as vitamins, cosmetics and travel. Many home based businesses can be started with little to no money, while others do require an initial investment.

To find a home based business that may suit your needs, it is best to focus on your likes, and strengths. If for example, you are extremely organized and a great communicator, you may want to consider becoming a virtual personal assistant. These jobs typically pay far above minimum wage and can a great way to not only supplement your income, but to provide a living above and beyond your expectations. When looking for a company that is seeking applicants for a virtual personal assistant it is always recommended that you check out references and do as much investigation as possible. Since there is no physical office, you want to make sure that the company is reputable and reliable. You can check their reputation by calling or emailing any association they may belong to, checking their references, and asking questions!

It is also important to check to see if you need any special permits, licenses or if you must join any associations to participate. Since time management is a key factor in creating a successful home business, it is crucial to keep diligent records for your work, your tax records and your time.

A successful home based business can provide you with both personal freedom and financial freedom. If you take the time to do your homework and find a business that meshes with your personality you are already on the right track to creating success!

If you are considering about starting a home based business opportunity there are several questions you should ask yourself. First and foremost, what is the investment? Many start up home businesses offer start up packages at little to no money, while others require a steep investment. Now this is not to say that one is better than the other, but it is to say that you should look into both equally, and ask many questions before parting with your hard earned money. If you are seriously interested in a company and it sounds too good to be true, the old adage may apply, it just might be. It is extremely important to do your homework before offering an investment of any kind.

When inquiring about start up costs it is also important to find out if there are also on going costs. if ongoing costs are indeed in play, it is crucial to find out how much they are, and when they are due, and for what they are used for.

These questions are especially important if you are very low on funds, and this is the only investment you can make. Often times a business can cost more to start up than it may appear in the beginning. Find out all costs associated with the business you choose and weigh all options before you make a decision. Another adage you may want to keep in mind though is that you have to spend money to make money.

Another question to ask when considering a homed based business is whether the company offers training and/or support. This can literally make or break your business.

The training and support offered by a company can and will make a huge difference in your ultimate success. Make sure they have good ethics and leadership skills and are totally dedicated to helping you succeed. Choose a company as you would one that you would do business with, as a consumer. Check associations, references and customer reviews. This could save you many hours of disappointment in the future.

Many home business opportunities have strict rules regarding how, when and where you can advertise your goods or services. In any case, it is very important to know what you can and cannot do. Following the little steps and asking the right questions can help you build a foundation for a very successful home based business.

As the Internet boom continues starting a successful home business has become more enticing than ever for entrepreneurs looking to use their home for their business. A virtual office for your home business is a great way to focus not only on your work, but on work that you love, that will give you financial and personal freedom.

When setting up a home based business there are several key factors that one must consider in order to ensure as much success as possible.

First and foremost, your home office must be professional. It should be comfortable but not so comfortable you find yourself straying from your daily work tasks. Keeping your work environment professional will help keep you focused throughout the day.

Secondly, it is crucial to find the right phone and fax system. Your phone system must allow your customers to reach you quickly and easily and in a professional way. A professional voicemail or even answering service can make the difference between landing a job or a sale and hearing a dial tone. Even if your home based business is in your kitchen, your clients need to know you are a professional business ready to work with them and for them.

Even though your office may be virtual for many or most of your customers it must be orderly, organized and ready to take down any information that client needs. A home based business does have perks, but sacrificing quality is not one of them. With the economy waning, professional voicemails or an answering service (or even a secretary) is an easy way to give you a plus right out of the gate.

Another great, and affordable way to get your business name on the map is to advertise in a cost effective way. With so many people looking to supplement their income, often times people do not have the time or energy to weed through dozens of candidates. More often than not, companies will hire who they know, or hire a company that has contacted them. Since everyone’s time is valuable, use yours wisely. A successful home based business can provide you with financial freedom if you treat it as a business, and one that you are invested in.
