     There are many small businesses that you can choose from to run. This is especially true because of the internet, which never seems to stop exploding.

     Besides the internet, there has always been a business many people really want to get into. This is called the mail order business. It’s usually easy to get started and doesn’t cost too much money like a franchise would. You may not see the space ads in magazines much any more where a person would mail in an order from a coupon. You can still do that, but other more convenient options would be to go to a web page or call a telephone number and talk to a sales clerk who then takes the order.  It sounds exciting because sales could go into large volumes.

     Many people these days are still trying out the mail order home based business. They can have any number of reasons for this. One could be a single mother trying to gain some extras income, or a student who does not have the means to travel distances for part time employment. Whatever the reason, there seems to be a growing trend in this field. It must be noted however; this is not the business for everyone. This type of business can take a great deal of patience and dedication to make it successful.

     You may have found a unique product to sell, or making jewelry or crafts; the list of mail order home businesses has an endless potential of opportunities.  It is a long proven way to sell your products.  The more unusual the better.  Information products are great because they usually solve problems people may have.

     If you find a product that shows that there is a demand for and it isn’t in the stores yet, you could start by running classified ads telling people where they can find out more about it. They can write for more information or go to a webpage. Your supplier can actually ship the product right to your customer, so you don’t have to invest in inventory. This is called dropshipping.

     Wouldn’t that be great if you get to sit at home and make some extra cash with the potential for a full time business? Many people could become discouraged with slow initial results. You have to be a little patient with mail order because initially there is testing that needs to be done, and you have to wait for the results.  But there are ways to analyze results before all of them are in.

     Jewelry making is a nice mail order venture. You can get all your supplies sent to you in bulk. This could be a tricky business as many people can have trouble assembling things to begin with, let alone something so tiny as a pair of earrings. If you have trouble doing small tasks very multiple chores all day long, you might consider other types of mail order products. This can be a great project for someone with time and patience to get this off the ground, or can employ others to assist them at a small cost.

     Direct mail is a form of the mail order business. This can be very profitable. You would mail advertisements to potential customers.  Although businesses have leaned more toward the internet, direct mail can work, especially now that there is less competition for direct sales in the mail box because of the internet.

Maybe if we add in the initial step of research, there would have been different results. We’ll give you some research tools to help you find out whether or not your business can be successful.

These wholesalers will ship products to your customers directly, so you don’t have to worry about storing products in your house. This is called dropshipping.

This can allow you to find what products sell very well and then follow these trends quickly, assuming your wholesaler has this particular product in stock.

If you’re the kind of person who likes to write, there are a lot of places where you can apply your ability on the internet. You can post to different job boards and bid for writing projects. There are many different websites to choose from but some of the best ones out there are www.Elance.com and www.directfreelance.com.

Another way to get an online home business going, would be to create an Internet research website. There are many companies you can sell yourself and your abilities to create new content for their websites. You would need to make sure that you are very well versed in how to research different subjects on the Internet, but you would be free to make money in several different ways.

Hopefully these creating online home business ideas will help you out in your search for a great idea. Each of these ideas should not cost you much money but it can have a great effect in your pocketbook in the long run.

Developing a website can take a great deal of time so be patient if you do not see quick profits from the beginning. By taking time to work on your project every day you’ll find that you will have great success 6-8 months down the line as you begin to develop a reputation. Put aside time every day and stick by it. Writing or doing Internet research could have a more immediate return on your time and money as you could be making money within a day or even hours, depending upon how much you push the envelope.

Another place to research for both online and offline business ideas is SMALL BUSINESS PATHS.

     You can act as what is called a “Finder“. This type of business actually dates back to ancient times. It is someone who earns a cash fee from the seller and or buyer. Look at this example: Let’s entertain the idea that you read in the newspaper or other publication, or hear about a person who has a million dollar building to sell and you just happen to know of another person who might be interested in this sort of real estate. Now, all you have to do is contact the seller, and tell him that you have a potential buyer that you would like to introduce to him if the seller will pay you a 2% commission fee.  

     Now if the seller agrees to these terms, you would then introduce the prospective buyer to him. Afterwards, if the buyer and seller get together on a deal, you will happily make $20,000 in commissions (2% of the selling price). This introduction can be made in person, email or by mail. These opportunities do exit and it is possible for you to find hundreds of these by checking the classified sections of the major business papers and local papers.

As you well know, the internet has become a massive place with millions of websites. E-commerce is taking increasing chunks of the retail dollar pie every year. Wouldn’t you like to get a piece of the action?

Let’s explore some of the many ways people are making money online right now. As we go through these, think how you could fit yourself into a business of your own.

The obvious first ones are selling on Amazon and Ebay and other such sites like Etsy. The key here is to buy as low as possible, and to sell high. The bigger the dollar retail the better. A niche works better then general merchandise. Seek repeat business with repeat products.

If you already have an existing business, you can choose to expand your market by selling your products and services on an auction site like eBay or Amazon. This opens your business to a wider
range of consumers, both local and international. You could also offer your products on your website, and start advertising your site.

Another popular way to make money online is join affiliate programs. If you already have a website, then you should consider joining an affiliate network program. Depending on the theme and content of your website, you can get affiliate companies to advertise on your site. Different affiliate programs offer different schemes, such as pay per click and pay per lead schemes. Depending on the scheme you choose, affiliate programs can allow you to make money by just renting out your web page space to advertisers, or can give you a portion of the profit your advertisers make when a visitor from your site clicks on their advertisements.

Selling Domain Names and Web Hosting. A domain name is a website’s Internet address. For any website owner, most especially businesses, a good domain name that is easy to remember will increase traffic on their websites, and result in more profits. Selling domain names targets these businesses, and is thus a simple way to make money online. You may also want to host web pages on your domain. Web hosting will require you to maintain your customer’s website and keep them working. The downside to web hosting is that it requires technical expertise to be able to maintain the websites and your server.

Both renting out domain names and web hosting result in reliable income, since these services require regular payments from your clients. Thousands of people are earning extra income or enjoying a full time business in their home by selling e-books. E-books are available everywhere you go online, and cover a variety subjects from cooking to home decor to financial tips. They are easy to purchase thanks to online credit card processing, and they are easy to download and read at one’s own convenience. The beauty of an e-book business is you’ll have no inventory to keep up with, no overhead costs to produce the e-book (unless you invest your own time in writing one), and no shipping hassles. People are always searching for information on the internet to find out something or to help solve a problem. You can provide the information they are looking for.

I’ve only scratched the surface here, and any of the few ways I mentioned above can be expanded in many different ways.

Think about all the ways you could make money on the internet. I’ll bet you haven’t really looked into it, thinking that no one actually makes money on the net. That is actually not true and you should consider giving it a try. Ordinary people like yourself have made tons of money on the Internet and there’s no reason you can’t be one of those people. The truth is that you can really make money on the web. It’s a matter of finding out what you’re interested in and what you think you would do a good job doing. Sometimes, the whole thing is really accidental. You’ll find yourself doing something on the Internet and before you know it, you’ll find that you are really making money and you’re actually making a decent living. You might be one of those people you see on television advertisements, telling everyone about all the money you are making on the Internet. This kind of scenario is more common than you might think.

So think hard about any ideas you may have about making money on the Internet. Try putting your idea into action. You will probably be able to supplement your income, pay for something special
or go on that vacation you’ve always wanted. You may not be the millionaire you thought you’d be but you’ll be able to take that dream of making extra money and make it real. Imagine all of the
things that are possible for you on the Internet. You could sell something, market something or pitch an idea to the millions of people that surf the net. The start up costs can be next to
nothing.

I hope you enjoyed this article, and until next time…
