How to Make Money: Create Your Own Coupon Books

With today’s economy which requires my family to work very hard to stretch our single income through the end of the month, couponing has become a great resource for our family budget.  There is value in redeemable coupons for us and many other families.

________________________________

Kickoff your own home-based business
by creating your own coupon flyer!

 

Business Opportunities:

  • Local university coupon flyer – create a coupon flyer that includes valuable savings for local university students.  You could easily target businesses near the university that provide products and services available for the students to consume.  Charging a minimal advertising fee to the businesses, they can underwrite the cost of the flyer design, the printing & your distribution fee. You could find this business opportunity becoming a great income generator as you increase the frequency and increase the number of participating businesses willing to advertise.
  • Coupon sheet distributed during a local community event – similar to the above flyer, you could invite local businesses to participate in a community event coupon sheet that provides savings to your local-market consumers who are attending a local event. Distribution of your coupon sheet could include local farmers markets, downloadable coupon sheet for area neighborhood associations, outdoor performances, etc.
  • Local church congregations – develop a coupon brochure specific to local church congregations is a very valuable opportunity for local businesses to reach the local congregation members who drive by the businesses on their way to churches every week.

In any economy, businesses need customers.  Local businesses are more likely to purchase marketing space in your coupon book when they know you are delivering the coupons into the hands of their potential customers. Your extra income is generated by the advertising money left in hand after you paid to have the coupons created, printed and distributed.

In addition to the above three opportunities, what other coupon savings ideas could you come up to help your local businesses connect with your neighbors?

 

How to Make Money: I Earned an Additional $1,100 this Month

TODAY is the day!
Reserve 15 minutes today and seriously think
about the type of work enjoy doing.

Recently, I shared a very aggressive financial goal that I wanted to achieve by summer. I immediately wrote down the goal and began to draft my plan to reach the goal on paper. It took some time to think about those types of work that I really enjoy doing.  After all, work is work.  You know, that four-letter word that seems to shadow every day of our lives.

Since the time I shared the goal, I have been making time every day to think about that personal goal that I set, and I continue to jot down the many ideas of ways to make money in order to achieve the goal.

As you will read in the following lines; though I have not arrived to my personal goal yet, I have started and am definitely on my way.  I want to keep you in the loop with the progress with hopes that:

1.  I will remain accountable in order to keep thinking, jotting, and doing.
2.  You will be encouraged and challenged to begin moving yourself toward your goal.

MY EARNINGS: 

April 2013:  $1,100.00
$900.00   Commission earned from a business referral program
$200.00   Freelance revenue to help a client with research

Though I still have a long way to go before I reach my $10,000 per month goal, I am encouraged.  A few weeks ago, I was earning no additional income.  This month, I received my first big step toward the goal.  Next month, I leap to the next step with an estimated $2,000.00 coming in additional income.

MAY 2013:     $1,800.00 (estimate)
$1,200.00   confirmed income from a promotional campaign that I had helped create for a client
$   400.00   confirmed commission coming from another business referral program
$   200.00   potential freelance revenue to help a client with more research

Looking ahead, I have been working through these ideas that I trust will be substantial steps moving me toward my monthly goal.

1.  NICHE WESITE.  After a few weeks of due diligence, I have discovered what I think to be a profitable niche product.  I plan to create a niche website that will hopefully generate a growing passive income stream for me.  I’ll keep you posted on the progress.

2.  BUSINESS PARTNERSHIP.  I am very excited about this one.  I am currently in discussions with a business partner who has asked me to join him to help get his new company started.  With a couple of proposals already in the works, this project has the potential to quickly move me toward the monthly goal.   Stay tuned.

So yes – though it’s been a slow process, I am very encouraged with the progress so far.  More to come!

Today is the day!  Take a few minutes and seriously thinking about the type of work/business that you enjoy doing.

How to Make Money: Thread The Needle To Your Alterations Business

As matron of honor in her best friend’s wedding, my wife recently joined the wedding party at a local bridal shop to select their dresses.   Though I understood the dress & alteration expense would hit our monthly budget, I did not realize the alterations for a dress could cost us as much as the dress.

Sewing alterations can become a lucrative home-based business, especially if you focus on higher-end items such as:  weddings!

The scope of work for an alterations business can service an array of customer needs:
the personal fashion emergency,
simple task of hemming,
repairing zippers,
altering a garment’s size,
repurposing an old garment.

For the person interested and experienced in sewing, a home-based alterations business has the potential to generate a substantial revenue stream to your monthly budget.

Do you enjoy making alterations to your clothing?
Do your friends and relatives already ask you to help them alter theirs?
Do you enjoy the thrill of helping Cinderella look her best in her wedding gown?

Delivering great work, on time and at a fair price will generate great word-of-mouth as you provide your customers clothing that fits them perfectly and will deliver a full-time work-at-home business tailored just for you.

How to Make Money: Tutor For Hire

  • Do you enjoy helping others learn something new?
  • Are you able to explain the details of a specific subject matter for a student to easily grasp?

Some unique tutoring business opportunities:
*  Homeschool families & associations seeking specialized knowledge in a subject or foreign language.

How to Make Money: Bookkeeping Business

Life is busy.  For small business owners working hard to grow their businesses, their pace of life can be off the scale.

Targeted focus and accurate bookkeeping skills are required
commodities for them to remain competitive and successful.

The fact that so many of them dislike monitoring the checks and balances (or simply do not have time to stay on top of it) provides a great work-at-home income opportunity for those of you, who may enjoy the ins and outs of financial record keeping.  Your interest and experience can become a valuable bookkeeping or accounting resource to these small business owners…especially during tax time.

 

A PERK: You can easily begin your own bookkeeping business while you keep your full-time job.  All you need is a computer, desired software (i.e. Quickbooks, Avanquest, etc.), and enough experience to attend to the general bookkeeping duties and then you are ready to support these small business owners to grow their businesses as you grow yours.

______________________________

Do you not have any bookkeeping experience?  Many community colleges offer courses in basic accounting (classroom & online) specifically designed to help you learn the business of bookkeeping.  Based on your experience, your part-time income could range between $10/hr – $40/hr.
