31 Days to Success: Day 7 How to Make Money
Yesterday you were asked to write down all your skills, experiences, interests and passions. Today, we will explore how you can make money from them.
There are 3 basic ways to make money from home:
1) Sell a product.
2) Sell a service.
3) Sell information.
These can be done in a job or business. For example, you can get a job as a virtual assistant or start your own virtual assistant business. If your passion is gardening, you can get a job with a gardening business (writing, web design, consulting etc) or start you own home-based gardening business (landscaping, writing, product sales etc).
The first step is to choose some items from your list of skills, experiences, and interests and brainstorm money making ideas. What types of products, services or information is related to those topics. Using the gardening example:
Gardening Products - sell products you make, sell products from others (wholesalers, used, direct sales companies), get sales job.
Gardening Services - consulting, landscaping, support services for gardening business (ie VA, bookkeeping etc).
Gardening Information - ebooks, reports, etc on gardening topics, running a gardening business etc.
To help get ideas, do a search on your topic ideas in your favorite search engine. What kids of websites come up? What products, services or information are they selling regarding your product?
Start with the ideas that you are good or really love. Working at home is hard work. It can be made easier by looking for or creating work that you already know how to do or that you’re really passionate about.
