Looking for a Legitimate Work From Home Job Which Suits Your Schedule?
There are hundreds of work from home opportunities available on the internet alone, besides all the off line ones. You can do hundreds of jobs in different industries but they mostly all mean working for an employer and working the times which suit them, unless of course you happen to be a business owner. Many people are searching for the ‘perfect job’ but shouldn’t they instead be looking for the ‘perfect lifestyle’? A job will always be a certain number of hours and there is usually a limited pay scheme too.The internet gives the average person the opportunity to leverage their time and therefore their income too. Imagine how much you would have to invest if you were to run a shop 24 hours a day 365 days a year. With the internet you can do this for less than a round of drinks. The internet allows the average person to set up a shop front (their website or blog) and have it running 24 hours a day 365 days a year. They can even be selling products while they sleep to people on another continent!This sounds all well and good but if you haven’t the first idea about computers, where do you begin? What products and how? The answer is to sell other peoples’ products! It’s called affiliate marketing. You do not even need to create your own product you can simply link to one that already exists. Often the product owner will provide free tools and even training for free to their affiliates – the people who sell their products. You can sell various products from instant downloads to physical products like a camera from Amazon or eBay.Instant download products or ‘information products’ are a superb way to begin. Firstly you do not need to post anything, deal with any customers or handle the money directly. The customer buys a product (through your link) which takes them to the website of the product you are promoting. This product is already available and the payment scheme already running. You can even get banners and links from the seller to help in your promotions. Your code is hidden in the link and is recorded when you send someone to the sale page. When they buy your account is credited with the sale so you earn a commission. Often you can earn between 50 – 75% of the sale price for information products. Your only job then is to direct traffic to the products.The job of sending traffic can be done in several ways. If you can write an email you can be an affiliate marketer. You can do this without previous knowledge as there are plenty of free platforms which allow you to create an on-line presence without having to build your own website. The beauty of this kind of income stream is that you work when you choose. The down side is that you are the boss so you will need to be fairly self motivated and do things on a regular basis. The up side is that you will be building on work you have done previously. So for example if you have written a review and put it on-line to promote a certain product, the same review will still be there years later still linking to the product and driving people to the sale through your affiliate link making you money for each sale.Before I discovered affiliate marketing I was listing items on E-bay for profit. I spent all my time sourcing items and listing them. I was going to the post office and sending things out. I seemed to be working full-time, answering questions and always checking my account and was only making a small return for what seemed like a lot of hassle! So for me, affiliate marketing ticks all the boxes for the perfect legitimate work from home job. If you looking for a change in direction and lifestyle take a look at this course which will show you how.
