10 Explosive Ways To Turbo-Boost Your Sales
Copyright © Stone Evans, The Home Biz Guy

1. Design your web site to be a targeted resource center. Choose one subject and build on it. You'll gain repeat visitors that are interested in that topic.

2. Offer something that is really free. If people go to your site and what you said was free really isn't, you'll lose their trust and they won't buy anything.

3. Add a chat room or message board to your web site. People want to interact with other people that have they same interests as them.

4. Entice people to link to your web site by giving them something free in return. This'll increase your ranking in some search engines.

5. Trigger your reader's emotions in your ad copy.
Example, if you sell a book on gambling tips, tell them the feelings they'll get when they win money.

6. Make sure your site looks good in all browsers.
You could be losing sales because it looks distorted in some web browsers.

7. Increase your sales by e-mailing full page ads to your e-zine subscribers. Remember to tell people before they subscribe or they may consider it spam.

8. Ask people questions in your ad copy that make them think about their problems. For example: Do you want to be free of your debts?

9. Magnify the size of your prospects problem in your ad; show how your product can solve it. The bigger the problem, the more sales you'll have.

10. Invest a percentage of your profits right back into your business. Spend it on marketing, product improvement, customer service, advertising, etc.

The Best Home Based Business For You

The World Wide Web is a veritable sea of home based business opportunities. I don’t know anyone who doesn’t open their email and see several advertisements for million dollar systems every day. How do you begin to sort the fact from the fiction, then? Using common sense, and asking yourself a few important questions, I think you can choose the best home based business for you.

The best home based business will be flexible. Working from home will entail a special set of challenges to pay attention to work even in the face of chores that glare at you. Many people use home based businesses to decrease their need for child care, so you may be trying to work and care for your children at the same time. For you, the best home based business will be a flexible one. You will need to be able to come and go as you please and still complete work in a timely manner to earn your income.

The best home based business will be consistent. Products that are too trendy or that do not have mass appeal might render inconsistent sales. While high sales are exciting, bottoming out after a period of high sales can reek havoc on your budget and motivation. As you determine the best home based business for you, look for a company or firm that provides a consistently important and relevant product. Products that last produce businesses that last.

Residual income is the best kind of income. The best home based business will create sources of residual income. This is money that makes itself. Residual income lines are transactions you make once that continues to bring in profit over time. An example would be copyrighting your writing and then earning income every time someone utilizes it. This kind of income requires little maintenance work.

Most importantly, the best home based business is one that interests you. If you don’t like to talk to people, marketing won’t be the best business for you. If you don’t like to write, you will likely not enjoy contract writing as an internet business. Think about your skills, hobbies, and favorite items and then build a business around that – not the other way around. Getting into a business and hoping you grow to like it will lead to an unsuccessful business because you will be less likely to make the sacrifices necessary for success. You see, there is not one single best home based business. The best home based business is the one that works for your life and brings you happiness.
