Many are struggling in the crazy economy. There so many who don’t know what will happen next. When they say it’s getting better for some it seems to get worse. Individuals are being fired, laid-off and just told we can’t continue to keep our doors open without customers. The question that many are asking is what can anyone do to survive. I think that we must all come together. It’s a matter of our existence as humans. If we don’t come together we will all fall. Recently, I notice a growing trend, people joining home based businesses to make a few extra dollars. Some have made more than just a few extra dollars, they are making a living. They have replaced their 9 to 5 for the home life and an income. Is this possible for anyone or is it just for a few fortunate people being in the right place at the right time. I believe that if people would come together and trust one another this can become a reality for them. I really think that a new approach or home business model may work better than some of those in the past. For example, instead of joining one home based business as a individual try joining one as a group. What I’m saying is working together in one home based business may reduce failure and the home business fatality rate.Research has shown that 90% of the people who start a home based business fail within the first year. What I’m saying is that I noticed I can see the growing trend of people joining home based businesses as well as people failing over the first year. The trend of failing could be because of the old approach. That approach go something like this, one person joins a business then he tries to recruit 3 or 4 friends that don’t have any money to get in. Then the person that join looses money due to the monthly products he had to buy and the lack of members in his home business. I believe that in a good economy or a bad economy if we look at things differently this could be reversed. I have listed 10 steps that could reverse this trend. These 10 steps are based on working together at all cost. This would be cost effective and profitable. I call this the internet survival home business plan.1. What you want to do is get about 4 or 5 family members or friends together.2. All will present companies that they would like to join, but all will only agree to join one home based business that you all researched. One person’s name will be submitted as the owner of the business. It has to be this way because 4 to 5 names can’t be listed.3. All the members of the group will pitch in evenly for the start-up fee.4. All the members will recruit candidates to join the business, not the group. The group will always remain at 4 or 5 members.5. As a team you will pick who will be the best candidate chosen for each leg of the business. Again, this is for the business, not the 4 to 5 man group. These are new recruits, individual(s) that will be joining the your business.6. It very important to choose go-getter to head out your business and group. So, that money can be made quickly. You can elect a head or chairman of the group from the beginning. But, remember this doesn’t mean that he makes all the decisions. In order to be successful you have to work together. In the case of the business the weaker links that want to join should be put in a position where they have sponsor that can motivate them. These members should not be at the top of the chain.7. When the first check comes in, it will be split evenly among all the members or put into a pot an at a specific amount or time profits should be evenly distributed.8. Remember 4 to 5 heads are better than one if all are willing to work together. You want to continue this process unto infinity or until each member thinks that they can survive on their own. This process will reduce the failure rate and increase profits.9. One of the main keys to success is each member sharing their talent or individual skills. If one is good at marketing then he needs to train others. If one is good at speaking then he need to be the spokes-person or train others on how to speak successfully.10. Finally, Try to pick a business that doesn’t have monthly fees. I have found that this works better because of economy. This can work with business with monthly fees, but I wouldn’t encourage it if finances are low when starting out.This can be done with family or friends. You can recruit or hand pick your own group based on talent and skills as long you can all agree on things.I believe that this new approach will definitely work more effective than the approach that many have followed in the past. The key to survival with individuals in life is family. A family is a support system. We as human seem to thrive from this system more than those who don’t have a family or family structure. This concept can be use in any internet home business and I personally think that it will work effectively.

The niche you have chosen should allow creation of more than one product or service. With the technological advancements in the hosting industry, from automated control panels and scripts that simplify creation of accounts, to complete turnkey solutions; there is no need to worry about spending time on the real products sold to the customer. The main ones are keyword selection, sales copy principles, graphics, affiliate programs, product creation, online payment processing, auto responders, and search engine optimization.

Once you’ve earned money from this type of information product business, you can invest in the creation of your own products if you want, or start offering more informational products that allow you to sell your knowledge. But the creation and production costs of a similar big ticket in sequence product, although higher, are still pretty low. A key by-product of this process will be the creation of 3-D, Computer Assisted Design art.

Whether your idea is the development of a product, launch of a service business, or even the creation of an event or program for a non-profit, creativity is the root of all entrepreneurial efforts starting with the vision itself.

People quickly learn to spend their time on marketing and product creation, rather than repetitive tasks. Apart from empowering companies and individuals, there should be a particular focus on identifying labor intensive businesses that have the potential to make a significant and positive impact on employment creation as well as those businesses that have a product or service offering for export markets with the final objective of booming local economies.

One of the most important, yet overlooked, advantages of having your own home based business is the tax advantages it affords you. IRS guidelines allow you to deduct business expenses from the revenue you generate BOTH from your new home based business AND you’re the other income you generate.Most business do not generate a net profit in their first few years. In other words, by the time the business owner pays for his office rent, start-up costs, inventory, samples, utilities, payroll, transportation expenses, inventory, insurance, etc. there is no money left over for profit. This is normal in a start-up business. The idea of course is that as the business grows it will generate a profit for the owners. But in the beginning it’s all expense and not much– if any — profit. The IRS recognizes this fact, and therefore allows the business to deduct these normal expenses from their revenue before any such revenue is considered taxable.The same rules apply to network marketing business. The best part is that many of items that the government recognizes as legitimate business expenses for your new home based business are things that you are currently spending anyway – but without getting any tax deductions. Part of you automobile expenses, a portion of your home that you use to operate your home based business, part of your utilities, “samples” of products or services that are sold by your network marketing business but that are consumed by you and your family are just a few examples of legitimate tax deductions the government allows you to take if you operate a network marketing company in which you “intend” to eventually make a profit. In the meantime, while your expenses exceed the amount of revenue you are generating from your new home based business, the tax deductions can be deducted from your regular W-2 income from your full time job.So start a network marketing business – and start paying less taxes to the government for everything else that you do. Always consult a tax professional for the details of what is legal and what may be stretching the law too far. But don’t overlook the considerable advantages every home based business owner is entitled to. This is how people make rapid cash. They get to keep more of their money from the IRS.
