Earning money from home: What not to do.
I have been reading a lot of blogs in the last few days and have found so many people trying to make money doing surveys and getting referrals to try and build a downline of other survey takers. STOP DOING THIS! It is never going to make you financially independent because it is too time consuming! It is too difficult.
I can say this because I have been down that road. I have done the creation of 10 different emails, spend 5 minutes clicking on things to make $.35, posting referral codes, recruiting referrals through websites. It took me a month to get 9 referrals. They referred 25 people. It make me $8.80. That's it. Why? Because it gets tiresome and people stop doing it.
Shift your thoughts a little. Quality not quantity. Think about it this way. You could spend $1.40 and buy 2,500 banner ad impressions on a click to read email site. You make get 2 people to sign up and you get 10% of what they earn. But, they're only earning $20 a month? That's 2 bucks!
Or, you could take that $1.40 and go down to Starbucks (aka the networking capital of the world) and buy a coffee. Strike up a conversation with someone else in line. Ask them questions and listen to what they have to say. Find the common ground and how you can help them. Give them your information and get their card. Follow up. If they're not interested, move on. If they are then you've grown your business.
Which would you rather do? What frustrates you about trying to make money from home? Is it not working?
