"11 Powerful Tips to Help You Earn
Extra Income Making Money on the Internet From Home!"

Dear Fellow Work-At-Home Opportunist,

My Site Partner Diane Hughes and I (Mark Bravura) collectively represent surviving nearly 20 long, excruciatingly scandalous years of direct involvement in Internet Marketing (IM) and Information Contracting.

We have finally decided to do the one thing that will make us hated by the vast majority of IM "Gurus": Revealing the no-holds-barred truth to you, with no strings attached.

To this very day, we are still seeing hundreds of honest, hard-working individuals like yourself raked over the coals and utterly devastated - financially, in broken relationships, and in life they will never get back.

The brutal truth of the matter, is that 95%-97% of all online businesses and work-at-home endeavors will fail miserably. Of the 3% to 5% that do actually become self-sustainable, 4 out of 5 of those will occur only after putting in many years of hard work.

The cold reality, is that the odds of actually being able to make extra money from home, via work at home opportunities, are so stacked against you as to be practically insurmountable; without a seasoned "trail guide" to show you the way.

What follows, is 11 powerful tips that will massively:

Stack the odds in your favor,

Reduce the lag time in achieving self-sustainability/success,

And keep you from being crushed by broken promises, and false hope resulting in losing 10's of thousands of dollars, and thousands of hours of your life that you will never get back.


Tip #1: Choose wisely, grasshopper.

The vast majority of folks looking for additional work at home income, via their own work at home based business... be it work-at-home moms, college students, or simply everyday average citizens... all have one major point in common:

The misfortune of getting sidetracked way too easily; ultimately frustrated with and disappointed by numerous make money and work at home scam artists.

To add insult to injury, the average individual looking to make ends meet with their own home-based business are likened to butterflies fluttering from one home-based employment opportunity or home biz to the next...

Never really accomplishing anything but more wasted money, lost life, and strained relationships.

It cannot not be overstated the importance of picking ONE niche, ONE opportunity, and making it completely self-sustainable. And only then moving on to the next, if you absolutely must.

Ah yes, and therein lies the real question... "How can I make money AND not burn out?!" A special report could easily be written on that one question alone.

However, the short answer is truly knowing yourself, and knowing what the market is hungry for - exercising due diligence. It is foolish to choose an endeavor that you are not absolutely passionate about...

But it is equally foolish to choose an endeavor that has relatively few others who share your passion.

The single best tool that I've discover so far for at least determining potential market interest, and what problems that market segment is seeking solutions for is the Google Adwords Keyword Tool.

The other suggestion that both Diane and I most highly recommend, is to plug into Mike Merz's IM4Newbies forum.

Tip #2: If you're in it just to make money, you're doomed.

Back when Diane and I first got involved with learning how to make money and work from home, you could literally throw up any old zero- cost eBook or special report and people would flock to sign up for it.

As recently as a couple of years ago, you could have a stunning eBox graphic designed, slap a bunch of reports together and still build an impressive list.

Today, with Google's world-wide Slapdown in full motion, and people like you and I tired of spammers, scammers, and other unscrupulous individuals - not so much.

People now need to be shown that you genuinely have their best interests at heart, and that you are not afraid to share some real value, with no strings attached BEFORE asking your readers to commit to anything whatsoever.

Let's face it, who really wants to have to waste their precious time unsubscribing from yet another list?!

Nowadays, your readership needs to know that you are all about their success, and helping them find the solutions to their most pressing problems... BEFORE they make any kind of a commitment.

Give value >> build trust. Build trust >> make money. Wash, rinse, repeat. It really is that simple.

And by far the simplest way to do this (after you have firmly decided on the niche that you'll be targeting, and problems that you'll be solving) is to...

Grab a dedicated blog from Wordpress.com (even if you already have one or more), and freely share nothing but the coolest resources that you continue to discover in researching out your ultimate passion niche.

Pictures, videos, great reports... you name it. As long as you found it valuable, so will others. What's more, is that in building a natural rapport with your readership, you will never have to hard sell them on anything.

You'll be able to simply recommend great for-pay offerings, and your readership will gladly go with your recommendations because they know you are a person who stands and delivers on everything you put out.

Tip #3: Give 'til it hurts.

Originally coined by Robert G. Allen, in his best seller Multiple Streams of Internet Income, "Give 'til it hurts" is the perfect axiom to Tip #2.

It is simply not good enough to give great value with no strings attached once or twice... In order to truly succeed at achieving your heart's desires, you must embrace this your new lifestyle.

Going back to the above example, you would need to approach your dedicated passion niche blog not as work... but as a welcome escape every chance that you can possibly steal away to help others - just for the pure joy of it.

After all, the gift really is in the giving, and there is an indescribably delicious feeling that accompanies value-added selflessness!

Tip #4: Avoid the temptation of trying to be all things to everyone.

When seeking out various work at home business opportunities, it is all to easy to fall into the deadly trap of trying to please the masses.

Awhile back ago, Diane wrote an article called "Reduce Your Customer Base... To Boost Your Income".

This same principle applies when seeking to freely add value to a specific demographic. The more broad you attempt to be, the more fickle your readership will be, and ultimately the less successful you'll be.

It is far better to be a master of one niche, than a "jack of all trades".

If pet care is the niche that you are highly passionate about, then focus in on your all-time favorite pet, such as dogs; and proceed to cater to dog lovers.

If IM is the niche that your passionate about (yes, IM is a niche), then pick a specialty to become an expert on, such as viral marketing; and deliver freely shared value focused on that element of IM.

Is that to say that if you were to discover a great zero-cost resource outside of your sub-niche specialty, that you should pass it by?

No, however those should be the exception to the rule; stashed in an "off-topic" category on your blog, website, etc.

Tip #5: Stack your functions.

In permaculture, there are what's referred to as "plant guilds". A plant guild is typically three or more plants that mutually benefit one another (such as the Native American three sisters - corn, beans, and squash grown together).

Every action that you perform in growing your home-based business should include at least one, and preferably two or more ways to later leverage off of your efforts.

For instance, as you are researching out cool resources for your dedicated-niche value-adding blog, be sure to save every link of every resource that you discover.

Later on, as you accumulate several dozen links, these can then be compiled into a highly-focused viral "link list" PDF, which can then be further developed into a special report, how-to vid's, or a perhaps even a multimedia presentation.

The lesson here is that by tapping into the cyclical rhythms of your niche specialty, an information guild can enjoy enormous sources of web traffic.

Focusing only on "money plants" sucks your life away, while giving you little in return. In contrast - offering a little bit different
, highly valuable social habitat for your visitors ties your "garden" into generous word-of- mouse cycles.

Tip #6: Learn everything that you possibly can about consumer psychology.

Most web-based entrepreneurs - to this very day - think that creating compelling sales copy is nothing more than learning a bunch of clever buzz words, bonded together by large quantities of hype "spackle".

Nothing could be further from the truth. Real salesmanship is about whole-heartedly feeling the very pains, struggles, and frustrations that your potential clients and customers are experiencing.

And like a reputable doctor, being sensitive to their ailments, with compassionate care-giving.

Once you really start to grasp consumer/herd psychology, you will never view anything the same way again; nor will you fret about how to try and "sell" your offerings.

The same holds true in the subtle, yet profound differences in marketing to men .vs women. You will intuitively understand the best approach, and proceed from there.

One of the finest zero-cost eBooks you could ever get your hands on, is written by Bryan Kumar, and entitled Marketing Secrets of Seduction Masters. Google it, download it, learn it, live it, and reap the rewards!

Tip #7: Focus on making it work, elegance will come later.

I am the first to admit that, for the first few years, I was obsessed with making everything I set out to accomplish "perfect".

While first impressions are important, the problem with the perfectionist mindthink, is that it will quickly zap you of your creative juices (and fill you with an overwhelming feeling of despair); due to the "meticulous details" work involved.

Take, for instance, a brand new website or blog that you're setting about to create. If you become obsessed in the details, it wastes your time and energy on what would be better sent simply getting your site up, running and functional.

Once that is the case, you can always continue to make improvements on the fly. Remember, if you are dynamically growing your home based business, then today is the worst your website or blog will ever be.

Tip #8: Align your efforts with a strong Joint Venture (JV) Partner from the word go.

Much has already been written on the subject of JV's and is outside the scope of this tip. What is important to understand, however, is that "no man is an island".

Without a strong JV Partner standing behind you, your chances of succeeding in making money online are massively diminished.

If you have not done so already, I highly encourage you to read up on everything that you can get your hands on, pertinent to JV's, and focus on landing one good Partner who perfectly aligns with your ultimate passion niche.

Then figure out how you can best serve them in lightening up their workload.

The dividends go far beyond money, and it will be one of - if not THE - most important relationships that you build online.

Tip #9:  No such thing as a "free lunch".

Quoting the words of Marc Goldman: "(Home-based) businesses cost money". Simply stated, what you are not willing to invest in money will severely cost you in time. Take, for instance, web traffic.

While there are thousands of ways to generate zero-cost web traffic, I have yet to find ONE that is time efficient. The IM Big Dogs don't screw around with traffic exchanges, and the like... They simply buy traffic when needed.

And whether you purchase your traffic, or attempt to generate it with zero out-of-pocket expenses, be absolutely certain that you have some type of traffic funnel/recycling strategy in place.

For some that may be a squeeze page. For others, an RSS feed, or "share this" button, and for others it might be one or more highly valuable viral PDF's in place.

Above all, avoid wasting your hard-earned traffic on a web endeavor that does not have one or more of these in place, working for you... Which leads straight into Tip #10:  

Tip #10: Until you have your own subscriber base of at least several thousands of highly-responsive, loyal readers... avoid affiliate marketing altogether.

Many of the Big Name IM'ers work hard at programming you into believing that affiliate marketing is oh so profitable. For them - yep.

Not so for you my friend, when you count the cost of what it takes you to drive enough focused, receptive traffic to actually generate any appreciable number of sales.

You see, their projection of affiliate marketing is entirely skewed (read one-sided). I have yet to see a single affiliate marketing pusher bluntly state, in no uncertain detail, any of the following:

You are building their leads database up, not yours.

You are building their name/brand awareness and recognition, not yours.

You are improving their Alexa Rank and Google PageRank (PR), not yours.

You are ultimately allowing them to live the good life, while you miserably suffer.

Which is why Google adsense-type programs are an equally bad waste of your time, and resources.

Why wouldn't you build your own list with that traffic, then blatantly send it into textual ad infestation/oblivion (if you absolutely must)... instead of merely crapping it down the internet toilet and making someone else wealthy?!

Once you have built up your own subscriber base of at least several thousands of loyal subscribers, then yes - you too can enjoy the rewards of affiliate marketing reserved for those with large lists.

Until then, focus on value-adding and trust-building, creating excellent products of your own, and attracting a righteous JV partner.

Tip #11: When planning the creation of your own products, think multimedia and durable.

In landing a strong JV Partner to align with, building your name/brand awareness, and establishing yourself as an expert within your niche...

The importance of having one or more of your own products is absolute, and strongly to be desired.

However, over the course of the last several months, purely textual- based content has been steadily declining in popularity; while multimedia- based content continues to climb in popularity.

Furthermore, according to CD-Fulfillment.com studies have shown that by offering your product as a physical archival CD-Rom cross-sell, or upsell, increases of 10% to 30% in additional backend sales are common.

This increase in sales assumes that the physical CD-Rom upgrade price is in the $7-$10 range over the price of just the digitally-delivered product.

Does this mean that strictly text-based products are a waste of time?

Like all things in life, there will be the exception to the rule. Nonetheless, consumers are getting a lot more picky by the day as to what straight text-based products they are willing to purchase.

If they do no see an extremely strong potential return on their investment (whether measured in educational or entertainment value),  they'll simply pass it up; as studies have shown that people are far more comfortable learning via multimedia, then strictly text.

And multimedia (including software) has a much higher perceived value.

Which brings you right to a timely solution, by way of an actionable systematic approach for easily creating your own multimedia information products:

Secret Work At Home Blueprint Revealed

Secret Work At Home Blueprint Revealed is for anyone with a computer, and a strong will to independently succeed; as it does not require any specialized knowledge, nor programming skills whatsoever.

However, it is ideally suited for individuals looking to make legitimate work at home money on the side, with an easily-manageable home- based business that can yield very impressive returns.

As a matter of fact, I designed Secret Work At Home Blueprint Revealed with my 13 year old daughter in mind.

I did not assume the end reader has any prior experience with information product creation; and as such, the zero-cost tools and resources I reveal are well worth the cost of this very Special Report, alone - 35 pages of practical information, with zero fluff.

This systematic approach is one that the average work from home mom, college student, or busy entrepreneur could work on a few minutes here and there; and over the course of a couple weeks, have themselves a product not only to be proud of... But worthy of attracting a JV Partner with. 

If you are highly motivated, you could conceivably knock out a truly unique product in a day, and have it polished the next; and the only other expense (outside of the cost of this Special Report, itself) would be getting an eCover designed.

Also, within Secret Work At Home Blueprint Revealed I reveal an awesome 100% web-based, platform-independent eCover generator that costs less than $10 a month to design an unlimited number of your own truly stunning 3D eCovers.

Interestingly, this alone could easily become a nice work at home sideline income for the right entrepreneur!

Though Secret Work At Home Blueprint Revealed particularly focuses on creating actual offline products (CD-Roms)...

Both strategies will work equally excellent with strictly downloadable products, as well; and best of all with the combination strategy revealed.

And by no means are JV's absolutely mandatory to succeed with this systematic approach. However I have included a comprehensive section covering the fundamentals of Joint Ventures, as this will definitely propel your efforts much faster toward outstanding success.

What's more, is that both of the strategies contained within Secret Work At Home Blueprint Revealed lend themselves beautifully to establishing your own unique membership club, for a nice, ongoing residual income.

Valuable Bonus #1 - Internet Income: The Truth Behind the Lie, 3rd Edition, by Mark M. Bravura (Value: $27.00)



Internet Income: The Truth Behind the Lie, 3rd Edition is a shocking eye-opener of a treat that lays it down blunt. The 11 tips above are like the snack tray before a full-blown seven course meal, comparatively.

Freshly updated 12/08, to pave the way for 2009 - Internet Income: The Truth Behind the Lie was originally designed with the sole purpose of genuinely helping people who seek to work from home, or start their own home-based business from falling into certain fatal traps.

One of which is not only massively tempting to millions of web surfers - AND it's illegal in the United States, as well. Sadly, most who participate aren't actually aware that it's illegal. Even more sadly, is the fact that ignorance is no excuse (in the U.S. anyhow).

With this little hottie in your possession, you will be fully armed with one of the finest Special Reports of it's kind; now in it's 3rd edition, it offers even more invaluable insight, tips, and observations based on my nine years in IM.

Within it's pages is even a complete systematic approach for generating your own highly desirable squeeze page offers, and high-quality viral PDF's; completely different than - yet 100% complimentary to - the two main strategies found in Secret Work At Home Blueprint Revealed.

And the Philanthropreneurship chapter has been newly revised, as well.

Things are chaotic here at Mission Control!

Why?

I just had to demote some of my top secret agents for not uncovering these tactics. Mark has put together an under-the-radar idea that not even my best deep-cover operatives had been able to find.

We are now negotiating to get Mark in as an honorary IMF Agent, so we can use his highly intuitive brain.

I also like the way Mark puts together his de-briefing reports. No fluff, just 7 pages that come right to the point. I probably spent less time than it took to finish my coffee reading and grasping this idea.

I'm definitely trying this out with a little project my Lab Rats are cooking up right now.

Hi Mark,

Reading your report was very inspiring.

The comment "A new generation of innovators and entrepreneurs - committed to using market-based approaches to solve social problems is unleashing new ways of using resources for the public good." was particularly exciting!

I hope we are seeing a time when we begin to use our talents collectively for more than the purpose of chasing the dollar.

There is tremendous power in your words.

Hi Mark,

I have been reading the books I bought from you and they have a wealth of info.

Even if I do not do Adsense there are things in there about how Google searches headers and web pages which will help me immensely.

And I have only read the first 1 and half books.

Great stuff! Thanks.
