100k Job Trading From Home

Got in PRR a few days ago(30/03) at $0.28, when it broke out a two years trading range. It surged to $0.41 yesterday and closed at $0.395

Had I picked BSE at $0.175 on 9 Sep 2010 when it broke out a long trading range and making new 52 week high, I would have made gains of 300% plus. It closed today at $0.57 with intraday high of $0.61.

Why I didn’t get in at $0.175? It seemed a bit too pricey at the time as just one month ago on 11 Aug 2010, it was trading at $0.09. I was scared to get in because it already made almost 100% gain in one month.

The lesson was: the strong stock will just go stronger

After a long break, I am back to this wonderful world of Internet Money Making game. There is not much changes from what I left a few months ago. I’ve got loads of comments to approve, please be patient.

I have done quite a bit during this long break: trading stock, trading forex, traveling around. One thing I found out that it is more appropriate for me to do the trading instead of Internet Marketing. I am switching towards stock trading and forex trading.

As a result, this blog will focus on stock trading and forex trading from now on. I change the blog name to 100k Job Trading From Home instead of Blogging from Home.

It was so nasty, every single site on my web host account was hacked. The hacker was able to modify every single files and put their spam links every where. It took me a whole week to clean up those rubbish.

The explanation from my host provider Host Gator was the hacker used a hole in my WP 2.6 to access all files on my account, thus an upgrade from version 2.6 and below to version 2.8.6 is essential if you are  running a WP blog. Please do it, or at least back up your web sites, and it could save yourself heaps of time when such incidence strikes.

Podcasts have been popping up all over the Internet in the past year or so. I have come across podcasts on anything from the latest tech gadgets to gardening tips. With millions of listeners out there and plenty of new people listening to podcasts every single day, now is a great time to start your own podcast and make some money along the way.

So far podcasts sound pretty similar to an Internet Talk Radio Show, doesn’t it? Even though the two have many similarities, there are also quite a few differences. Podcasts are unusually not as structured as an Internet Talk Radio show. The tone of a podcast is very informal. Podcasts are usually on blogs and are also available for automatic download to your mp3 player through RSS. Podcasts also don’t have guests on every show. The host of the podcasts does a lot of the talking him or herself. Podcasts be shorter or just as long as a talk radio show, plus they can vary in length from one show to the next.

There is a little bit of both hardware and software you will need for a good sounding podcast. Podcasts are usually broadcast as mp3’s, so you need some sort of software to record your show as well as a decent microphone. Plantronics has some great mike’s available. You can either use software like Allrecorder or a complete service like Audio Acrobat that will also host your audio files for you. Having your files hosted through a service like audio acrobat has the added benefit that people listening to and downloading your podcast will not eat up your bandwidth. This may save you quite a bit of money in hosting fees. You also don’ t have to worry about troubleshooting when there is an issue with the audio files.

Let’s talk about how you can start making money with your podcast. Your two main sources of income will be paid advertising and affiliate programs. You can sell 30 – 60 second ad spots on your podcast, as well as advertising spots on the site that links to the audio file of your podcast. As far as affiliate marketing goes, you can promote related products on your website and mention them in your show. If a listener follows your recommendation and buys the product through your link you will make a commission.

Another, newer source of income for podcasts that’s starting to pop up is sponsorship. Companies will pay good money to be mentioned as the main sponsor of the podcast both on your podcast website and in the show itself. Once your podcast attracts some listeners and you start getting some publicity, it should be easy to attract a corporate sponsor. In the meantime you could contact a few small businesses in your target market that may be interested in sponsoring your podcast for a few months.

Now sit down, grab a pen and paper and come up with a great topic you can talk about for hours. Jot down a few ideas and start recording. Before you know it, your first own podcast will be up online.

These 3 marketing myths can cause you to lose sales if you base your marketing decisions on them. We’ve given you some marketing tips to blast each myth and boost your sales.

Myth 1: People buy a product at the cheapest price they can find.

That is not true – if it was then companies like Rolex and would not exist – Timex would have put them out of business a long time ago.  Despite the ease of research that the internet affords – buyers are generally lazy and don’t undertake full research.  Even on eBay where it is far easier to check the relative prices of a product – people often buy a product at a higher price than they could.  So what causes people to buy?  These are called buying triggers – the most common are:

•    Confidence in the seller
•    A high perceived value
•    Recommendations
•    Ease of purchase

Blasting Myth 1:
Establish your credentials – for example we have over 20 years of business consultancy experience – so we know what works and what does not work in a business.

Find ways of enhancing the perceived value of your product or service by adding extras or clearly demonstrating the value of it’s purchase.

Ensure that you include some actual recommendations within your sales letter.
Make it easy to purchase and receive your product by not introducing any barriers to purchase such as extra forms, obscure or complex payment methods.

Myth 2: Offering your customers numerous different options will boost your sales

When confronted with several options, most customers have difficulty making a decision. They often react by procrastinating – and going to a seller who offers a clearer product.  Now by this we don’t say add extras or up sells, just clearly state what is included in the product and don’t offer options that not only confuse but making your selling and processing more difficult.

The human mind works better when offered the two options “buy”, “don’t buy”.

Blasting Myth 2:
Only offer one product – or product package per page.  You can have a clear (and short) menu on each page to encourage multiple purchases.
If you have more than one option for a product or service – then give them different names and present them each separately.  For example you can call them “silver service”, “gold service”, “opal service” etc.  This is what we did with our various marketing services and it works quite well.

You should always aim at a small, easily understood product or service range.  You should be able to explain each of your products in one or two sentences.  If you can’t do this – how do you expect your potential buyers to understand what they are buying?

Myth 3: Everybody Needs My Product or Service

Unfortunately, most people don’t believe that they do need a particular service of product.  Obviously with items such as Ipods – your teenager will try and tell you they really, really, really need one, but this is peer pressure that has been built up with millions of dollars.  Much of this was spent on research into what there market wanted – and they got it right!

If you believe this myth then you also believe that you can succeed without doing much marketing or selling.  Unfortunately, despite what some marketers tell you – it does not happen that way.  Undoubtedly there some very successful marketers around, but they will all admit that a great deal of market research, testing and reviewing of their offerings – happened before they became successful.

Building a successful business is hard work – most of it devoted to finding potential customers and then matching them with your products and services.  Even if most people can use your product or service, you still need a marketing strategy to reach them and a persuasive sales message to close sales – because you can bet your last dollar – that where there a lots of potential customers – there are just as many sellers.

Blasting Myth 3:
•    Do your homework – find out where your potential customers are, what particular needs and desires they have and what they are seeking to solve these.
•    Look for a narrowly defined niche market where your product or service will solve a unique need of the customers.
•    Design your product or service to meet these needs.
•    Test, Change, Test, Refine, Test and obtain customer feedback.

Unless you are one of the millionaire marketers around – you will find many myths that you follow and potentially lose money on.  Hopefully the ones above have helped you.
