Are there any "LEGIT" work from home businesses out there?

    99% are scams… running their own work-from-home business, getting money from YOU. The few real ones, like transcribing jobs, have many, many, many people interested in them — that’s a lot of competition for a very few jobs.

    You’d have better luck — unless you want to start running scams yourself, which I certainly don’t suggest! — starting your OWN business. What services can you offer that people would pay you for? Web consulting? Marketing? Cooking for people in your area? Daycare? Crafts?

    Now only legit BUSINESS that you can work from home is your own. Anything else is an employment for wages, which are very scarce if any, a direct commission sales or affiliate programs. Someone else websites are NOT your own businesses and you can’t base your financial future upon them.

    Thanks to Internet we are no longer dependent on economic situation in our town, county, state or the country. Economy is global and the world became our market place.

    Start your own business based on your interests, hobbies, experience and passion. Should you need any guidance or coaching, find me through my profile.

    Yes there are countless Legitimate Work At Home Opportunities. It really depends on what you are looking for. If you are looking to make quick buck, then affiliate programs are best for you, but its not guaranteed that they will even work for you. They usually involve a lot knowledge that you need to have in order to succeed in them, and to be honest, Most of us just do not have that kind of time to spend in learning all those little technicalities.

    On the other side Home Based Business opportunities are absolute "A MUST HAVE." Studies show that only 3% of the American population is involved in the Home Based business While others are still running the Rat Race. When I say the Rat Race, I mean the same 9-5 shifts everyday and Long Hours.

    Now, I am sure you would agree with me that there is a lot of Hype on the Internet, but Only some companies will live up to their Hype. Others will use your money to make fortunes for the people at the top.

    Any kind of business involves Marketing. If you can’t market your business, you fail, and I mean Litterally Fail. And thats why you should always look for a home business that is Marketing for you on its own.

    I know that you must be like, How in the World am I supposed to do that?

    Simple answer…
    STOP being too Skeptical, or You Will miss a great Opportunity.
    Learn about a business, Listen to your instincts, and Go for It.
    Thats the way I look at it.

    A Few things to watch out for.

    * Make sure that its something you can do Part time.
    * Make sure the company’s product is top of the line and wanted by everyone.
    * Make sure that the company is Solid Debt Free and has a Great Network Marketing team to make your business grow without you pulling your arm and leg and sweating like a Pig working for it.
    * Also know the owners who you are going to be partnering up with.

    Running a Home business really gives you the opportnity to enjoy life with your family and friends. But on top of that, if your home business is signing members up for you, Its even better.

    I’ve been doing some work with http://www.elance.com the past week, all the work is home based, data entry, transcription etc. The only thing is you’re competing against people from countries where the hourly rate of pay is a lot lower, so not sure if it would be worth it for you.

    Also have a look at the jobs listed here, most are appicable to us,canada,europe, its quite good, thats where I found the above link.

    http://www.working-from-home-jobs.com/

    Its been updated today to include some Craft type jobs which can be done from home, mainly re-distribution, but it possible to make good money from it if you work hard.

    So many online jobs are out there. In fact, to do any online job, you need not want to invest anything. Make sure, you dont pay anything to get jobs online. It is just that need to pick the one that suits you the best. I hope this helps you and–>I believe you will find the online job that you love the most. Thanks

    I know a lot about this topic so please forgive the length of this reply. I have a lot of good info for you. I am a mother of two little girls who are actually tugging on my arm as I write this so I will try to be brief. Many people are looking for work from home companies. All the scams definitely create a big problem but also, there is a problem of people misunderstanding the difference between work from home "jobs" and work from home opportunities. There really are not work from home “jobs”. To get that you have to start working for a company in their offices first, then they MAY allow you to take the job home.

    Most of the work from home opportunities that are legitimate offers are not an hourly pay type job. They are business opportunities that help you in starting your own business from your home.

    What you should do first is to decide if you are simply looking for an hourly rate type job or if you are looking for more of an opportunity for additional income such as what you would make in your own business being your own boss from home. Many say a JOB stands for Just Over Broker and I have found that to be true as well. I never got anywhere working for others.

    Small home businesses have some small costs involved, less then $500 to start is reasonable and I would stay away from those wanting $1000-$5000. It doesn’t cost that much to start and run a home business so you shouldn’t pay it. The real ones will have a small monthly overhead as well. Should be around $50 a month but no more then $75. And everything should be included from your web sites to training and team support to back office accounting and booking. It’s ok to pay this overhead because it’s a business, they cost money. It’s not reasonable to assume you can run a business from home with a website, accounting, bookkeeping, payroll, processing and more for free so do keep that in mind as you search.

    If you are coming across places that say free then I would RUN don’t walk the other way! They never are. I tried them many a times and 3 weeks later I had to buy this and 6 weeks later that. After 6 months these “free businesses” had cost me over $800 on average.

    I’m a stay at home mom of two little girls as I mentioned, ages 1 and 3. I work about 15-18 hours per week for a National Medical Benefits Company. This is a home business, a nationally known and reputable home business which is what you need to make sure you are looking for. I have been with the company almost a year now and I make over $3500 a month! In your first month, depending on how many hours you can work, I have seen people make anywhere from $500 to over $3000. And your income will increase each month because we get paid residual income as well. If I continue on as I am going at the end of the year I will be making $6000 a month. My friend Becky from South Carolina started 2 years before me and she is now making $102,000 a year with this company.

    The best part is they have 401(k), direct deposit, life insurance and a benefits package most of which you get from day one. In addition, there are no products, no hard selling or pushing, no cold calling, no home parties and no telemarketing! That was VERY important to me.

    I absolutely love working with them and I can’t believe I am making what I am making and in so few hours per week. The neat thing is there are other people on your team that you work with so you are never alone. You have great team support and you get to know the other people on your team pretty well. The support is great but I have made wonderful friends as well. I think that’s important too, especially being at home!

    I was a bit apprehensive at first because I know a lot of companies are not legit but this company is the number one National Medical Benefits Company in the US. They are a member of the US Chamber of Commerce, and the National Association of Dental Plans and the owner of the company actually sits on the board of The Consumer Health Alliance to which we are also members. Also they were featured in “The New York Times”, “Wall Street Journal” “Time Magazine” and the “American Medical Review”. Even “60 Minutes” with Morley Safer did a big special on this home based business.

    Even more then all this is they are accepted at over 100,000 retailers nation wide. These are fortune 500 companies like Sears, Target, Walgreens, CVS, Wal-mart, Publix and more. These companies would never work with a company that was any thing less then reputable. That made me feel very good about working with them knowing they were accepted at these stores that I frequent. Also now of course being with them I get the dental and vision benefits for free and I saved over $150 on my last visit to the dentist! That’s just a beautiful perk! : – )

    When I first started I just felt very safe with them, that and my friend was already making so much money with Ameriplan. But at this point I feel a sense of security financially that our family has never had before. That plus LOVING what you do? What could be better?

    would you be interested in writing?

    You could setup a blog or website, this is completely free. Once you have added some good content, you can start to earn money from advertising. I know you wont make a huge income from this, but it would get you started working from home.

    Pick a topic which you are very interested in, and write a piece on that everyday.

    I’ve given step by step instructions on how to create a website for free, and then add adverts to it so you can start generating income.

    Any questions please leave a comment on this blog.

    http://your-first-blog.blogspot.com/

    I’ve also found some useful information on this blog which I found today, it helps you to earn small amounts of money from data entry, surveys, receiving telephone calls, reading adverts in emails and online selling.
