My Online Home Business. by Corbin Forbes
There are so many reasons why I Work From Home; I would like to cover a few in details. I started working from home because I’m going to college online and I wanted to make some extra money on the side. I didn’t realize my online home business would turn out to be as successful as it is. When I first thought about the idea of working from home six months ago; I just didn’t think it would turn into a full-time job. I now spend more time on my website then I do on my schoolwork. Don’t worry!! I’m still on schedule to graduate in July of ‘06 with over a 3.0 grade point average in Human Resource Management. I just never thought how fun it would be to start a website and find ways to make it profitable; believe me, it hasn’t been easy. The best part about owning your own home business is the sense of pride and gratification you get from something you have created. A lot of us have and are still working at a job we can’t stand; we find ourselves not performing up to our capabilities for various reasons. Before I decided to go back to school almost two years ago; I was working as a car salesman for one of the most successful Honda dealerships on the East Coast. The money was fantastic but I didn’t like the atmosphere. I found myself coming to work everyday thinking about other things; when you’re not focused on your job, your performance slips. Even if you’re a great employee, not having focus will drop you performance output just enough to make you unhappy. I left that job to go back to school and it was the best move I’ve ever made. While going to school online I sat around and decided to think of ways to make money online. I knew it could be done; I just didn’t know how hard it was going to be to find the right program. I researched quit a few programs and spent some money; let me rephrase that last statement; I wasted some money. There are so many home business scams out there promising whoever signs-up with them will get rich overnight; well, there’s no such thing.
Another reason I work from home is the ability to learn from and meet new people; if you Start Your Own Home Business; you better be prepared to work with others; the only way to make it in this business is by learning from those who are already successful. I’ve been in this business for only six months and I consider my self pretty good at this home business game; I say game because that’s the way you should treat it. For Pete’s sake, you’re working from home, you don’t have a boss who’s nagging you, and you make your own hours, it doesn’t get any better than that. You have to treat this like it’s the greatest thing that has ever happened to you; if you don’t, you’ll get burned out. The online home business strategies are changing consistently; if you don’t have fun with it, you’re in for a hurting. Don’t get upset if you have a bad month or get behind on your website maintenance; sometimes it’s good to take a break and get reenergized. This business is a marathon; no one makes it happen over night. Like I said before; this is supposed to be fun. Once you find yourself loosing interest; take a step back and regroup. The more fun you have the more you’ll want to work and learn. The more work and fun you put into your online business, the more successful you will be.
I mentioned before how important it’s to learn from others; I got lucky because I found a great mentor within three months of my online home business research. Erich Winnecke is one of the leaders in the field of Online Home Businesses. I let him know my school situation, and how I wanted to make some extra cash. Erich got back to me with some unbelievable ideas and how to accomplish them. I can honestly say I wouldn’t be where I am today without his help. When trying to find a mentor be sure to remember these people are not here to do the work for you. They make a lot of money because they work hard and spend a lot of time making their own websites more profitable. Just try to latch onto them and learn. They won’t do the work for you, but if you show them you are hungry, they will feed you the information you need to get started or improve your home business.
When starting your own Home Based Business be prepared to spend some time and money on your development. I said I started this business six months ago; in actuality I’ve been in the hunt for about three months. It took me three months to learn and the last three months implementing what I had learned; oh yeah, I’m still learning new things everyday. Once you become stagnant in this business, you’ll be in trouble. What might be working today might not work tomorrow. I started out working about 8 to 10 hours a week and now I’m putting in about 40 hours a week on my website and advertisements. I can usually put in 5 hours a day during the week; I would like to put in more but my internship and schoolwork come first. The weekends are when I really put the pedal to the medal. On the weekends I usually put in 8 hours a day on my home business; yeah, I sacrifice some social activities, but I didn’t start this to be average; I started my online home business so I could open more doors and have a bright future. The more you put in the more you’ll get out of this.
If you’re just starting a home business or are having trouble keeping one going, here’s a few tips. Be sure to find a mentor, be prepared to spend at least $300 a month, put in at least 8 to 10 hours of work per week, read as much information as possible, join a forum that has to do with what you’re trying to accomplish, exchange links with other high traffic websites, build up your rankings on major search engines like Google and Yahoo, write at least 20 article a month and get them published, and like I said before; PLEASE HAVE SOME FUN!!! Oh yeah, I almost forgot; stay away from those scam artists out there; they’re still some of us truthful good people out there who are willing to help or listen to any ideas someone might have in order to better our businesses. I’m not a genius, I’m just someone who wants to be successful in whatever I do; if I can do it, you can do it!!

At Home $28.04 The story of David Lambert and Craig Nuttycombe’s not-quite-success actually says more about both the business and lack of guarantees one can face than most Behind the Music specials about famous groups — acts that never fully connect beyond a small fan base despite efforts otherwise from a far greater percentage of performers in general, even in the everyone’s-a-star days of Myspace and YouTube. At Home’s cult appeal doubtless partially results from that history. Released by A&M, it was the closest Lambert & Nuttycombe got to balancing out their spare, reflective sound with wider support (getting co-produced by Glyn Johns near the height of his fame is enough of a sign on its own). Literally recorded at the duo’s shared house, the 12-song collection is almost a spiritual cousin to U.K. contemporary Nick Drake’s work, the sonic connection of vocal-and-acoustic-guitars-only further heightened by the short songs and bare half-hour length of the album. By taking an understated approach to an already low-key performing style, there’s an aching sense of intimacy throughout, and on songs like “Time” and a cover of “Mr. Bojangles,” the singers sound like they could be singing as much to themselves as to an audience. This said, there’s a brighter glow to At Home in comparison to, say, Pink Moon — not a bouncily cheery sort, to be sure, but a warmth in the singing and a content, breezy jauntiness on songs like “My Own Beat” and “Ode to Drugan” that almost suggests something like the Beach Boys’ “Busy Doin’ Nothin.” That the duo and this album in particular have received attention and re-releases over the years isn’t surprising at all in retrospect, and Fallout’s 2007 reissue — adding no bonus tracks, just letting it stand as it is, beyond a brief biographical note — is a welcome way to bring the story of a star-crossed duo back once more. ~ Ned Raggett, Rovi |

Bill Gates Speaks $42.5 Our slogan from the very beginning was ‘a computer on every desk and in every home.’ For me to become gun-shy might require surgery. An icon more powerful than anything on a Windows screen, Bill Gates today stands atop his fabled Microsoft fortress staring down competitors’ threats and injunctions from an annoyed U.S. Justice Department. The kind of success Gates has created rarely escapes criticism. And Bill is getting more than his share. The story of how this Harvard dropout created the operating system that would become the worldwide standard for millions of computers is legendary. And equally legendary has been the take-no-prisoners tactics of his corporate colossus, Microsoft. We’ve witnessed Gates’s transformation from a geeky wunderkind into a business titan. Whether admired or detested, glorified or vilified, Gates is a household name and a worldwide curiosity. Bill Gates Speaks discloses what Bill Gates has to say on everything from financing a start-up to running a conglomerate, developing technology to raising a family, and growing his business to expanding his personal wealth. Drawing on quotes culled from speeches, articles, essays, newscasts, and interviews, this unique book weaves all of this information into a compelling and easy-to-read biography. Here is just a sample of what you’ll find inside: My parents weren’t all that excited about their son announcing he was dropping out of a fine university to start a business in something almost nobody had heard of called ‘microcomputers.’ I think business is very simple. Profit. Loss. Take the sales, subtract the costs, you get this big positive number. The math is quite straightforward. I envy peoplewho thrive on three or four hours of sleep a night. They have so much more time to work, learn, and play. We never waste a lot of time talking about what we’re doing well. It just isn’t our culture. Every meeting is about ‘Sure, we won in seven of the categories, but what about that |

Happy Birthday Mr. Kang $16.95 From Publishers Weekly Roth’s sumptuous, sophisticated collages fittingly chronicle this affecting tale of a Chinese-American retiree and his grandson. On his 70th birthday, Mr. Kang makes three wishes. I want to read The New York Times every day. I want to paint poems every day. And I want a bird, a hua mei, of my own. The hua mei, a Chinese bird, connects Mr. Kang with his grandfather, who also owned such a bird, and becomes a metaphor through which Roth explores the idea of freedom and choice. On Sundays, Mr. Kang gathers with his friends and their birds at Sara Delano Roosevelt Park in New York City, and when he brings his grandson, Sam, along one day, Sam wonders aloud if the hua mei is happy in his cage. This prompts Mr. Kang to set his beloved bird free. But when grandfather and grandson return home, the bird is waiting for them. In prose as spare as Mr. Kang’s poetry, Roth delicately explores generational and cultural issues ( We save, in old, grown heads,/ a full-blown rose in summer,/ the sound of bamboo leaves when/ the wind is gentle,/ the taste of mooncakes ). Arresting artwork conveys cityscapes and interiors formed from items as varied as photographs, silk brocade fabric and newspaper clippings: Roth overlays a festive birthday celebration atop a Chinese menu with wisps of pink tissue paper; Mr. Kang’s hua mei sports elegant cut-paper feathers. This poignant volume honors the value of one’s native heritage while paying homage to America’s great diversity. Ages 4-8. (Jan.) Copyright 2000 Cahners Business Information. |

In Good Company $18.95 From the Publisher: When we finished About a Boy, my brother Chris wanted to do something wildly different. I wanted to write a film of the same scale, a character study overtly set against the backdrop of American cultural issues. Writing the script on my own felt like going back to playwriting. And instead of bumming money off my dad, I was able to bum character traits from him to use for Dennis Quaid’s character. Writer/Director Paul Weitz, from his Introduction The latest film from the Oscar -nominated screenwriter of About a Boy, In Good Company is a dramatic comedy about the relationship between a 51-year-old businessman, Dan Foreman (Dennis Quaid), and his new 26-year-old boss, Carter Duryea (Topher Grace). Dan Foreman is headed for a shakeup. He is demoted from head of ad sales for a major magazine when the company is acquired in a corporate takeover. His new boss, Carter Duryea, is half his age a business school prodigy who preaches corporate Synergy. While Dan develops clients through handshake deals, Carter cross-promotes the magazine with the cell phone division. Both men are going through turmoil at home. Dan has two daughters Alex, age 18, and Jana, age 16 and is shocked when his wife tells him she’s pregnant. Between college tuition, the mortgage, and a new baby, Dan can’t afford to lose his job. Carter, meanwhile, is dumped by his wife of seven months just as he gets his promotion. Dan and Carter’s uneasy friendship is thrown into jeopardy when Carter falls for Dan’s daughter Alex (Scarlett Johansson). Weitz’s examination of life’s surprises, ironies, and coincidences combine to form In Good Company. The Newmarket Shooting Script book includes the complete screenplay, an introduction by writer/director Paul Weitz, production notes, a selection of black-and-white movie stills, and complete cast and crew credits. |

It’s groovy, man, said Arnold. If I’d known what was coming, I might have climbed on my mower and putted all the way home to hide in my room. But the lawn business grew and grew. So did my profits, which Arnold invested in many things. And one of them was Joey Pow the prizefighter. That’s when my 12th summer got really interesting. From the Hardcover edition. |

Mrs. Steffy $10.7 When Florence Steffy’s husband died in 1937 she was left with four children, almost no professional skills, and no license to continue the family’s funeral business. In an era when people believed that a woman’s place was in the home, she decided to go to embalming school and carry on the work her husband had begun. Doris Steffy lovingly chronicles her mother’s journey from homemaker to funeral director in this moving memoir. It is my wish that this book will give renewed hope to those who have lost a loved one, a better understanding to those who have not suffered such a loss, and a new dimension of courage to those who have allowed fear to keep them from realizing their greatest potential, writes Doris. But most of all, by setting my mother’s tenets down on paper, I hope they will come to share her great faith in the resiliency of the human spirit. |
