ecommerce is the way to go. I do several things...
I run full time contracting business; I'm an inventor; and author/illustrator for childrens books, and I have an ecommerce shopping site. This ecommerce business is for my childrens college funds. I want to retire in less then 10 years, and all my hard work today, will allow me to do just that. My ecommerce site, eventually will be passive income during my retirement years after I put my children through college.
To have your own shopping website, that is linked to just about every merchant, your only investment is between $200-$500. That depends if you just want the site, or you also want to be a broker . You get paid a percentage, from 3-30% of online shopping. If you or your family, friends, or strangers click for example, on the Target link, and they make a purchase, you'll be compensated evertime that happens. You'll also have the opportunity to earn bonuses if your business grows (broker), and other people want to get their own shopping site too.

My contact info is at the bottom of my home page. If your interested in learning more, call me or email me. I can pass on training info, which is absolutely free. If you live bear Chicago, Orlando, or LA, there are free training seminars. This is a fairly new business, but near 25k strong. It really has not spread through all the states yet. I started this a few months ago, and it's the easiest way to make extra cash. Especially because of the shopping season. But there are others that take this opportunity as their primary income, and are making it a full time job. Those people are making 6 figures. Basically, all they do is tell people about this business, forward them a conference call number; and if they decide to do this, then your business grows, and the more money you make.
I Hope to talk to some of you here, that are looking to start a home business.There are conference calls scheduled 3 times a day. And if your lucky enough to be in one of the 3 cities, you can also attend meetings. If your somewhere else, and your successful at building your business, then they will come to you, and get some training sessions going in your area. This is my stress free job. And, I shop online, as does my family and friends. Tell your friends and family to shop through your site too- its easy money. Being a broker takes a bit more commitment- like what I am doing now. Just passing on the info through various forms of communication. If you want to be a site owner and/or broker, give me a call. I'll set you up- first allow you an opportunity to be on a conference call or attend a meeting before you invest, to make sure that this is something you'd like to do. And then I get a commission bonus for that.
Also, no paper work, receipts or rebates forms to fill out. Every month, based on your sales and broker commission, they automatically EFT your deposit. Your stub is available ony to you on your protected website. I recommend setting up an account for a sole proprietor business for this. This way, when your ready to file taxes, you easily be able to seperate this business income from another (if applicable).
