The Dream Of Creating Passive Income

The dream of most entrepreneurs is to have a passive income that exceeds their living expenses. In other words, to have enough money coming into their bank account on a weekly, monthly or yearly basis without actually having to do work!
This has been my dream for many years. Passive online income is something that is sought after by people that have six and seven figure incomes. The reason is because even though they have these huge six and seven figure incomes they still have to work each and every day to make that money.
The reason so many people desire passive online income is because they do not want to have to get up each and every day to make a dollar.
So how do you get that all illusive residual income? Most people turn to real estate. But in order to get involved in Real Estate you need to have a huge budget. Then it can take months and years to actually be in a position to receive even small amount of passive income.
The next place that people usually go is to Network Marketing. Network marketing is a type of business opportunity where you can recruit representative to help you market some sort of product or service. By help building this word of mouth marketing channel the company will generally pay you some sort of percentage of what you bring in and a percentage of what your team brings in. The problem with this approach is that you need to recruit a lot of people to find someone that will really make things happen.
When that doesn't work out most people will turn to the Internet! My favorite form of passive income that comes from the Internet is called affiliate marketing. With affiliate marketing you can make online income simply by writing content for search engines. By getting your content placed on the search engines you can sell different products that other people own. Once you sell their product you can make a percentage of the sale or a set amount per approved transaction.
The hard part about doing affiliate marketing is learning the ropes of content creation and getting your content seen on Google. Once you get this part down then making passive income is a snap!
The great part about doing content marketing with affiliate products is that once you do the work and you get your content ranked on Google then you will get paid over and over and over again. That is the beauty of making passive income through the affiliate marketing model!

Along with making passive income I also believe in having multiple streams of income. Click the link above to see my take on multiple streams of income.

                           

                                                                           

Online Business Ideas For Passive Income Generation

Online business ideas are generally based on these three online business models - selling a product, selling a service or selling information. One kind of productive online business idea is affiliate marketing. Affiliate marketing is certainly a cheap and simple method with almost no start-up costs where the merchant is rewarded based on how many visitors driven to the sales by means of their marketing efforts.
This concept of affiliate marketing may possibly executed by creating one's own website or blogs which will be utilized to promote affiliate marketing programs via blog reviews and pre-sell sales pitches or simply affiliate links via banner ads. Another concept which is categorized under typical online business ideas is writing e-books which is also known as 'digital product'. The digital product was then placed in a digital vendor's inventory where interested people can purchased them with a percentage cut goes to the owner or author.
If one's creating interests are generally not for the extent of completing a digital product, there are also choices of taking on freelancing jobs. Such freelance composing activities might be done at home by joining an online freelancing organization who provides these kind assignments. In this situation, the cash flowing in will probably be based on the quantity of composing projects carried out by an individual. The happier the client, the better pay you will get.
If an individual possesses a greater degree of entrepreneurial abilities and has a passion inside the direction of self-employment, starting up an online support based business is one with the most reliable online business ideas. This kind of services based online businesses can be inside the form of internet marketing consultations, web developing, SEO copyrighting, desktop publishing (DTP), tech support and much more.
On such occasions the income will probably be different based on the type and high quality of the support provided. However a crucial point to note when starting up this kind of providers based businesses is to make certain a powerful foundation. This is in terms of possessing relevant knowledge, attracting the right customer base and so forth.
Online business like membership, training or subscription sites are a great example of how you can create recurring revenues over time with a one time marketing spend. It is also a great way to make your profits more consistent and stable as your income are based on level of tiers that you obtained from every new member you bring in. The only downside is you need to be prepared to spend a chunk of money before start benefiting. So much for some online business ideas right?
Online business ideas are an ideal way to position yourself to learn without the costly learning curve that the more traditional business world can bring. Most of the best business opportunities online increase their profit by using their marketing dollar more efficiently. To add, most successful online business models are in some ways passive in structure. The expenses and overhead of most online businesses is extremely low.
Online business ideas are plenty and what I am elaborating is just a tip on the iceberg. Nowadays, whether you want to believe it or not, everyone desires success from home. Countless people are seeking for proven examples to bring success from home. They join numerous programs that promised them the world, the convenience and the freedom of working from home but majority simply don't earn, not even a single cent.

Passive Income - Making Money From Home

Passive income as opposing to active income are accrued gains made from 'inactive' involvement in a making money process. This technique supplements your full-time job a well as various financial investments one does and they are great because not only that you do not need your own product or service, but you do not even need to keep promoting them every single month just to keep the money coming.
However, don't be fooled by scammers who provide offers that promise every lazy marketer a dream.
Here are the main benefits of joining programs that bring huge passive income. You do not need to spend time researching and developing own products or services. You can get started right away with minimum guidance. You get paid for every sale you make and recurring income thereafter.
Once up and going, you can have more free time to build other source of income. Now the internet is loaded with products that have affiliate programs that you can join. There are some programs, which are pyramid schemes and a lot of scams too.
To be pragmatic, even the simplest lazy form of online passive income campaign involves some form of work and effort put in. Don't be boned by scam artists that offer campaigns that works for the laziest of the lazy. In reality, it just does not work that way. What they don't tell you is you need to pay a hefty sum for that.
Here is the real fact - earnings from a passive income business does not require direct involvement from the owner or merchant. For instance if you are publishing a book online, all you need to spend is some fees of posting your product and agreed percentage cut that was given to the vendor for helping you to market the product. To get more exposure, you will need to spend some on third-party marketing agencies online such as link building services, banner ads, blogging and reviews.
Passive income can be semi-automated and fully automated. Semi-automated are methods that require you to build some ground work before your campaign can operate and start generating income streams. This method needs strong foundation and full commitment at the very early stage. The failure to secure this will result in failure. Semi-automated methods requires very small startup costs and sometimes, almost free.
Some examples of this are niche blogging, banner and link ads, affiliate reviews, online real estate broker, e-commerce affiliates or personal e-commerce store etc.
Fully automated methods are referred as a lazy marketer's method. This system are perfected by their vendors so that when you register and pay, they will tap your details into it and start making money. The advantages are, you don't have to worry about the ground work such as the setup, installation and marketing. This is because those tasks comes in the form of what you have already pay for.
Some examples of this are turnkey websites for banner and link ads, affiliate minisites, automated email lists, turnkey e-commerce sites, money making softwares like forex, membership sites, training/coaching, investments etc.
Creating a passive income may not make you money, although the ultimate goal is to make lots of money passively. When creating a passive income, you are creating a system that does not trade time for money and in the process of creating this system, you may spend more than you earn.
Many people can't get pass the idea of losing money before making money. That's why most people fail to create their first passive income online. On the contrary, those who are 'lucky' enough to create their first stream of passive income online will continue to create the second stream and third stream because they're used to the idea of losing some money before getting it all back, multiplied.
Another reason is because with their first passive income established, their risk appetite is higher and they are more willing to lose. The last reason is because they are more experienced now. If you've just started out, go find a job to make money. But don't spent too much time on it. Take 3-5% of your monthly income and most of your spare time to create a passive income online.
What you need to note that even passive income can be made from home, you must not forget the responsibilities of being a citizen. Passive income is taxable, applies to all fully automated businesses, especially web-based.
If you are the one that wants to have your own business as a supplement to your own income and family, then think no further as this article is aimed to all that believe in passive income. Head over to Niche Galore for more information on how to tap into making money from home with passive income.

                                                                               

How To Make Money Without Having A Job

Many of the leading economists agree that in the next five to ten years we will lose about 50% of our jobs. They are saying we will simply have half the jobs we do now due to automation, robotics, policy changes and obsolescence. Of the remaining jobs about 50% will be new jobs we don't currently have. These jobs will be created by new technology, new trends and new ideas. Just think, we hardly had social media ten years ago and now we have social media directors, social media marketers, social media liaisons and much more. This isn't just an isolated example, technology and change has brought us many of the jobs that are in demand now and many of those jobs didn't exist ten or even five years ago. With all of this in mind it just might be time for you to figure out how to make money without a traditional job.
First, let me remind you that the title of this article is "How To Make Money Without Having A Job" and not "How To Make Money Without Working." Now let's get started and get to work. In this short article you are going to have to work with me on this, I can't make the transitions from point to point perfectly smooth.
How Money Is Made
Money is made by exchange, someone has the money and the other party has something they can exchange for the money, a tangible thing like a car or an intangible thing like a service, perhaps tutoring or mowing the yard. If the person with the money wants the product or service the other party has and they can agree on the price and terms the exchange is made. The person receiving the money got it by exchange.
Important point number one: Money is made by exchange.
When we think of making money people traditionally link making money to having a job. Certainly for the last century, even longer in some parts of the world, the way most people made exchanges for money was through a job, they worked for someone else. Isn't it interesting how we say that? They worked for someone else. Shouldn't you be working for you?
So for the last century or more people have commonly worked for someone else as a way to make an exchange for money. They exchanged what they could do for money. Maybe they drove a truck or flipped a hamburger, maybe they typed in a secretarial pool or they sold merchandise in a store. Whatever they did they exchanged what they could do for money in someone else's money machine.
Not only can you do what you are doing for others you can do it for yourself. Flip a hamburger in a job for money in someone else's restaurant and money machine? You could be flipping that hamburger in your own restaurant and money machine. Drive a truck for a trucking company? You could be driving a truck in your own money machine. Don't let the phrase money machine throw you, we also call it a business.
Important point number two: There are other ways to make money exchanges besides in a job.
People break out in a sweat when I mention starting a business, but actually they already have done just that. General Motors has income and expenses. Walmart has income and expenses. You have income and expenses. Congratulations! You are in business, in fact you are a business. If you haven't looked at things that way or managed your life that way it could explain why you aren't making a lot of financial headway.
Important point three: You are already in business, but you may not be operating in a business-like way.
If you have a job who makes the decisions about what you do and how much money you make? I am betting it is the person that knows they are in business. You may have a boss or a manager above you, but the business owner sets the policies and hires the managers.
Important point number four: A job is where you are in business and you let someone else make all the decisions and the majority of the profits.
That just doesn't sound quite right does it?
Let's run through all this again.

1. Money is made by exchange.
2. Traditionally most people make money by using jobs to make those exchanges.
3. A job is just one role in a business.
4. You are actually already in business in a personal way.
5. You could also be in business as an owner.
6. Owners of businesses make most of the decisions and most of the money.
7. There is no reason you can't change roles.

So what could you do if you went into business not in a personal way through a job, but in a commercial way as a business owner making decisions and profits? The answer is anything legal. You probably could even do what you are doing in your job as a consultant working for several companies.
Some years ago I had a service contract with a national company that had its offices in Nashville, Tennessee. I was there three days a week so it didn't take long for me to notice this man pulling up every afternoon in a van and letting four women out of the van, each with a vacuum cleaner and a cleaning caddy. The women were cleaning the offices at night in this multiple floor office building. I found out later this man had five cleaning crews.
Here are the numbers I got from the women, three to four women per crew makes nearly twenty women cleaning each night. Each woman got about $100 a night for cleaning. The business owner got an average of $100 per office suite cleaned per night. These buildings averaged four floors or five floors, but let's just say three averaging four suites each since I don't really know how many used his service for cleaning.
The totals as estimated:
15 women get a total of $1,500 a night.
The business owner took in about $6,000 a night and paid out $1,500 plus some cleaning supplies.
Net profit to the owner: Nearly $4,500 a day (or night since they cleaned at night).
Later I found out one of the women working for him had estimated he cleared over $5,000 a night so I am somewhere close with these numbers.
And this was over ten years ago, I am sure the cost of cleaning an office has gone up since then. Do you have a van and a vacuum cleaner?
Bob Proctor from the movie The Secret made his first million dollars cleaning floors. He started doing it himself and then when he couldn't do all the work he hired people. Eventually he franchised the business. Eventually he sold the business.
I am just using this cleaning example because it is simple and about anyone can do it if they have the customer base in their area. What else could you do? Anything you can do! Can you tutor? People actually pay tutors to teach their children to tie their shoes. Can you tie your shoes? Then you could be a tutor. I know a woman who made more money baking cakes than she did in her office job so she quit the job and went fulltime to making more money.
Open up your thinking. Anything is possible. I know a man who lost his job as a maintenance man in a factory and when his unemployment ran out he started putting smoke detectors he bought at the department store in homes. Soon he was fixing leaky faucets and replacing worn out light switches. Next he had a home maintenance crew working for him in his new business. Losing his job was his big break.
Anything is possible, I actually met a woman who sold her disease. She came down with a rare illness and when she could no longer work she sent out information packages to research clinics and universities offering herself for research. Two replied, one got a grant to study her disease and to pay her living expenses while they worked. She also makes money as a speaker telling her story. Amazing!
I hope this helps you just begin to see the possibilities and realize they are limitless. With a little thought I am sure you will have many more ideas of how you can make money without a job. Who knows, I may soon hear you are hiring!

If you would like to learn more about making money and building wealth I am pleased to offer you my new eBook, "Empty Pockets" as a free resource. It is a book covering the reasons most people are not wealthy and how to fix them.

How To Grow Your Small Business Using Social Media

Are you a small business owner looking for ways to grow your business? Are you looking to attract more leads to your business, or have heard about Social Media Marketing, and now want to try it?
As a small business owner you face many challenges - limited capital, minimal support staff and having too much to do in what seems like very little time. So, how do you grow your small business without heavy investment in marketing and advertising? Answer - through the use of technology. Web 2.0 provides you with various tools and techniques that help you to generate leads and increase the exposure of your home-based business. Social media is one such tool. Here's all you need to know as a small business owner to begin increasing revenues using social media.
What is Social Media?
Social Media is a category of online media where people are talking, participating, sharing, networking, and bookmarking online. Examples include Facebook, Twitter, LinkedIn, YouTube, GooglePlus, and MySpace.
What is Social Media Marketing?
Social media marketing is using the above mentioned platforms to reach a new audience of consumers and create product brand awareness. By spreading word of a product from user to user, Social Media Marketing strives to gain greater legitimacy for a message because it is shared between trusted "friends."
Which Social Media Channels are most popular?
Studies show that Facebook & Twitter are most popular social media channels followed closely by YouTube and LinkedIn, GooglePlus.
Why should Social Media Marketing Interest me?
If you think this kind of Marketing is not for you, think again. These platforms offer a large bundle of benefits to small business owners. Here are some reasons why you should consider using Social Media for your business.
Exposure: As a small business owner you rely largely on network marketing to channel leads to your business - which, in turn relies on your interaction with people. This is the core notion of what Social Media is! But Social Media offers virtually unlimited opportunities to interact with people - millions of them! With this interesting form of marketing, your business is no longer limited to local leads; you will find leads coming in from a diversified geographic market!
Zero-cost: While other marketing media would be expensive, this type of marketing is relatively free, or requires negligible monetary investment. It's a great low-cost way to get your message across.
Improved web presence: Being on popular social media platforms strengthens your web presence. The more people talk about you on Facebook or Twitter, the greater are the chances of your business being found on relevant web searches such as Google, Yahoo!, or Bing.
Direct contact with prospects: These platforms put you in touch with your customers directly. You can have one-on-one contact with them, know what they really want.
Go viral: Such marketing offers you the opportunity to go viral with your marketing. Think about this. You put up a video about your business on YouTube. 10 people like it, and five of them share it with their friends, who in-turn share it with 20 more people. This is known as "viral marketing," and it can be a very effective method to increase your lead generation.
What is a Social Media "game plan" and why should you have one?
A social media game plan is a process consisting of a few simple steps that can help you achieve your social media marketing objectives. The social media arena is large and you can get lost in it if you don't play by the rules. There's a lot of competition and you have to have a clear plan if you want to stand out of the crowd and get noticed.
Your ideal Social Media game plan
A typical game plan for your business should consist of these four steps

• Build your network
• Propagate your presence
• Stay connected
• Monitor

Step 1 - build your network: The first step is to search for and add those users to your network whom you think fall into your target audience segment. When placing a request to add users to your network, it is always better to accompany such requests with a personalized message. You can also look for and join groups that pertain to your line of business. For example, if you are a business selling Health drinks and other health-related products, you could join groups where topics such as nutrition, diet or health are discussed. Such groups provide you audience for the products you have to offer. However, when in a group, do remember to ADD VALUE. Answer questions that you are equipped to answer, actively participate in discussions, be subtle and don't aggressively "push" your products.
Step 2-propagate: The next step is to announce your Social Media presence. You can do this by adding links to your social media pages on your website, e-mail signature line or newsletter, if you have one. You are out there with your business-announce it!
Step 3-stay connected:The third step is to stay connected with your fans and group members. Social media marketing initiative is easy to start, but requires effort to maintain. And like many networking efforts, results are usually not immediate. Acquire permission from group members and others on your network to send e-mails. You can then e-mail relevant content to people on your network. The key here is to send RELEVANT, VALUE ADDING content-not an advertisement of your products/services. If you are a health-drink selling company who is also a part of the diet and nutrition group, you can send links such as '10 Best Anti-Oxidant Rich Fruits' and then perhaps add an image and some information about your product, encouraging people to get in touch with you if they're interested. This approach will be better-received than just sending the prospects an e-mail flyer totally dedicated to your product.
Dos and Don'ts
While social networking is all about human interaction and cannot be strait-jacketed, here are some tips that will come in handy.
What you should do?
Add value to your contacts: Always add value to your contacts. Always! Provide them useful information, tips and other interesting facts that they can use. For example, Jane, a home-based business owner sells health drinks and weight loss products. So, it makes sense for her to provide her audience with interesting articles on the topic of weight loss.
Be consistent in your online participation: It is not a one-time effort. It is about building a relationship... and relationships take time. Be consistent in your social media communication. Have an interesting tweet/post/update at least every day. In some few cases, multiple postings a day are even better-but don't forget rule#1-add value. Your posts shouldn't sound like pointless ramblings or advertisements of your product/service.
Pay attention to what's being discussed: If you have joined a forum or a group, actively participate in relevant discussions. Use your specific, professional knowledge to help others. Contribute to add depth and dimension to a discussion.
Conversation is the key: As mentioned before, social media marketing thrives on relationships. To build a strong relationship with your prospects, you need to engage in a conversation with them. Maintain a 2-way communication between you and your audience. Take genuine interest in what they have to say and follow up on comments or observations that are made.
Thoroughly know the subject you are talking about: Position yourself as an expert on these platforms. But be sure that you know what you're talking about. Research if you aren't sure of something. Mistakes on these platforms spread quickly and damage the reputation of your business.
Personalize your interaction: It's advisable to personalize your interaction with your audience. Inquire about an event or occasion posted on a Wall, such as a recent trip, or "like" their vacation pictures on Facebook.
Portray your individuality: The biggest advantage small business owners have over large corporations is the fact that they are much smaller and haven't lost that real-person feel. Let your audience know the person behind the business. Make sure your interactions include a personal side!
Respond to your customers' grievances ASAP: Did you know that 88% of customers say unanswered complaints on social media sites deter them from doing repeat business? And deleting customer complaints is even worse! So make sure you resolve your customer's complaints on social media platforms immediately. Even if you can't resolve them, at least respond so that they know they're being heard. Acknowledge everything.
Mention your Social Media presence: Advertise your profiles. Always provide links to your social media profile in your website, blog, e-mails and even print materials. For websites and blogs, it's best to add Facebook and twitter widgets which provide a live feed of what's happening on your Facebook/twitter page, right there on your website or blog. Provide incentives or value adding information such as whitepapers or articles in order to encourage people to follow you on social media sites!
Monitor & moderate: Monitor your social media presence. Find out where your name's coming up online and in what context it has been used. A Google alert is the simplest way to do this, though there are many free tools available online to monitor your web presence. Also stay in-control of your social media pages. Read what others are putting up on your page and respond promptly.
Syndicate your Social Media content: Content creation takes time. So why not make the most of the content you have? Post your content on all popular social media sites and don't hesitate to re-use them. Turn a blog post into a link and put it on Facebook. Convert it into a video and add to YouTube and Facebook or turn it into a presentation and put it up on SlideShare. The aim is to get maximum exposure for your content.
What you should not do?
DON'T overtly push your products/services: Social media is a platform
where you build relationships, to create value. It's NOT an advertising venue. Your audience
will shun you if all you talk about is the stuff you sell. Think about it, would you talk to your family
and friends about the products you sell all the time? Of course not! Then don't treat your
social media audience any differently.
DON'T spam your contacts with pointless updates: OK, so now you added two new products to your line-up. While it's great to share the news, don't spam your contacts with ads. Put up a link to the new range of products; monitor who is interested and share information on a need-to-know basis.
