Helpful resources for the building of a new home based business

Have you ever purchased a new bi-cycle unassembled? Imagine the headache it would cause for the mechanically un-inclined were there no directions to follow. They would have no idea as to the tools needed, for starters. To most, it would like like a "mess" in a box.

This is why having a guideline to follow, when you are working to start a home based business, is so important. Most of the things we need or do in life are much easier when we have guidelines to follow.

If your plan includes the use of the Internet to promote your home based business then you will need to know...

*How to advertise on the Internet*How to get listed in the search engines
*How to target the traffic, from the search engines, that you need
*How to either build or buy a website
*Where to buy a domain name and web hosting*How to accept online payments
*How to generate and manage a database

... and more.

It seems simple enough, right? In theory, it's not difficult if you have directions to follow. How hard can it be to build a website? Well, if you don't know how, it can be very difficult.

What about building a mailing list? A mailing list is vital to the success of any Internet based business.

And what does it really take to get the targeted traffic from the search engines? How are you going to tap into that stream of people who are looking for what you are selling?

The questions are best answered by someone who has gone before you, with success. Finding a business coach/mentor is the easiest way to get things up and running correctly.

Major companies use consultants and experts, all of the the time, to guide them through transitions and products... it's part of being in business.

If you are here today and are considering a home based business of your own, I am here to help!

How to start a Christian based home business using the Internet by Rex Harris

"For who would begin construction of a building without first calculating the cost to see if there is enough money to finish it? Otherwise, you might complete only the foundation before running out of money, and then everyone would laugh at you."  A direct quote from Jesus!  Luke 14:28 & 29 - NLT

One of the biggest mistakes that I see, as a home business marketing specialist and mentor/coach is the failure of new home business owners to create a business plan.  Without the proper planning, just as stated in the Biblical reference above, disaster is usually the end result.

The Bible also talks about planning in the book of Habakuk 2 where it states "write the vision down, make it plain on the tablets that those who read may run with it."

Napolean speaks of the importance of planning in Think and Grow Rich, chapter two, where he has the reader create a list of resources needed that will be focused upon through thought, faith and meditation.  This is a principle also taught in the Master Key System when Charles Haanel tells us that "thought is the secret to all attainment."

Here are a handful of simple steps that you can use to formulate an effective plan for the building of a "Christian based home business."

First, give everything over to God in prayer and meditation, everyday, before you begin work.  You will notice, in doing this, that your day will flow with greater peace and joy than trying to control everything on your own.  Both the Master Key System and the Bible teach that we are to "Seek first the Kingdom" before things are added to us so make sure to put the quiet time alone with God as the top priority.

Second, write things down.  Ideas, thoughts, suggestions from others, research... whatever! If it either pertains or can have an impact on your home business, make sure that you put it in writing and tape it to the wall where you can see and think on the plan at will.

Third, seek the right help.  If you have never started a home based business find someone who has and is willing to help you get things started.  Finding the right mentor will not only make the task of starting your home business easier, it will give you someone to bounce ideas off of, share in frustrations (as they will arise) as well as victories and, above all, to increase your knowledge base which will empower you to leverage people into business with you.
