Earning a home based income using only a computer and internet is not an impossible goal.  Many working mum and dad have done it around the world prove that it is really possible.  Bear in mind that earning an online income from home is a get rich slow scheme.  In actual fact, all real business are get rich slow scheme. 

Here are some quick tips for mum and dad who had just being their home based business:

- Find an interest of hobby

Either start a business from your interest or hobby or develop an interest in the business that you intend to start.  You must develop the passion so that you love what you do.  Building a business online takes time and it is best that you loved it so much that you can forsake any zero income for the initial few years. 

- Don't Bother About Competition

Today, everything you do are competitive.  Everyone is competing for the limited numbers of jobs.  Everyone is competing for consumers.  If you are afraid of competition, then I am afraid that there are no careers or business you can get started on.  Don't wish that there were less competition, instead, wish that you are better than your competitors.

- Be an Expert

Brand yourself to be an expert in your intend business.  Write articles and press release and sell yourself as an expert in your area of business.  Even if are not an expert yet, visualize yourself as one and pursue the necessary knowledge till you are one.

- Get a Website

Making money without your own website is a wishful dreams.  Website don't cost much, it is important that you owned your business website.  Appearance counts, getting a free website from geocities with full of advertisement is going to kill you online business even before it can get started.

- Market your Business

Market your business website shamelessly.  Let the whole world know about it.  Add it to every directory or search engine that you can find.  Add it in forum, blog and guest books.  Add it in your signature of every email that you send out.  Be proud of your home based online business.

- Offline Markting

If your business concept is good and unique, get it on newspaper.  Newspapers have a wide coverage of human readers.  Once the story is published, it is going to spread like fire.  Your business sales will go up like crazy.

- eNewsletter

Put an ezine or enewsletter subscription form on your website.  Visitors might not buy during their first visit.  Therefore, it is important that you can contact them later via your ezine.  Let them know that you are providing great tips on a regular basis on your ezine and it will improve your subscription rate.  Have some past samples tips on your website so that people know are not just trying to con them into revealing their email address.

Most importantly, remember, building any kind of business required persistent and a strong self-belief that you can do it.  Nothing can replaced the wise old word of sowing before reaping.
