Tips for Starting a Home Business or
Work-at-Home Program

Watch this video or read the tips below if you are considering
starting a home business or any other work-at-home program.

1. Know what type of income is best for you right now.   

Do you need linear income, residual income, or both?

This is critical because until you know what type of income you need at this time in your life, you won't know what programs to look at and which ones will be a waste of your time. Everyone--at some point in life-- needs both types of income, but this comparison will help you decide which type is best for you today.

Linear Income

Do you want to be paid one time for the hours you work? Are you looking to earn a set rate of pay like you do on a job? If so, you're looking for linear income. The advantage of this type of income is that it's available immediately, as soon as you start working. Of course, with that comes the disadvantage--it stops when you stop! Linear income always contains a "limiting" factor, which means you will rarely, if ever, be paid what you're worth.

Residual Income

Do you want to be paid over and over for the hours you work instead of just one time? Would you like to create a stream of income that pays you much like the royalties that songwriters and authors earn? If so, you're looking for residual income. Starting a home business is another way to build residual income.

A disadvantage of residual income is that you might not make much in the beginning (this depends on the program). But the good part is that once the money starts to flow, you can move to being overpaid for your efforts, which means you benefit from the law of diminished effort. There is no cap on this type of income.

I've been earning weekly residual income checks for over 15 years for work I did when my children were younger, so I know this works. In my opinion, starting a home business is better than relying on a work-at-home program that only pays linear income. You do, however, have to find a reputable company that pays well and has long-term stability.

2. Remember that COST does NOT always = SCAM.

Just because a program costs money doesn't mean that it's dishonest or not reputable. (Read my warning below about scams.)

There are always exceptions, but for the most part, here's a pretty safe rule to go by...

*************************************************
JOB = linear income = FREE

BUSINESS = residual income = COSTS

But can you believe this?

You'd be surprised at the number of moms who want a six-figure income for nothing! They say, "Christina, I really want to earn $1000 a week or more, but I can't do anything that costs money. It has to be free."

(Hmmm...What if doctors and lawyers felt that way?)

Well, here are the cold, hard facts...

Nothing of value in life comes easy!

If you want to earn $1000/week or more (yes, that's doable with the right program), you've got to start thinking beyond a JOB. You can't expect something for nothing--that's a lottery mindset! You MUST be willing to work hard and invest in yourself and your future.

And now, here's my WARNING...

Any person, company, or program that asks you to pay for exclusive information is usually a waste of time and money. In most cases, the internet and your local library will provide you with all the information you need on the subject of starting a home business or working at home.

Every day hundreds of dollars are spent online by moms who are searching for a home business or work-at-home program. In desperation, they end up buying the promise of secret information, private job listings, online directories, or lists of employers (usually outdated) that are standing by ready to hire you.

My friend, please don't let this happen to you!

If you're don't know whether a company is legitimate or not, you'll want to learn more about scams.

I hope this information has been helpful.
