Hello Amifund,
Congrats on the success of building your home based business. I'm sure there are many people looking for ideas on how to build a home based business. But I hate to see others waste their money on purchasing ebooks on this topic when they can readily find ideas online for free. What is a home based business? Well, it's simply a business you can do at home that will make you money. A computer and a connection to the internet are what people use to establish their customer base for their home business. Now what can be a home based business?
Here are 10:
virtual assistant
freelance writers
web/graphics designers
ecommerce
bloggers
consultation (you can sell your knowledge through skype and charge by the minute)
affiliate marketing
data processing
taking surveys
selling how-to ebooks
Practically any skillset you have can become a home based business. There are sites that offer others to sell their ebooks for commission. All one needs is to set up a site to do so. Now I'm not saying you have done the same. But there are way too many sites that do. And most of these ebooks add very little or no value at all.
Most have a perception that home base business is easy and by buying these ebooks they'll be up and running in no time. That's not true! It takes lots of time and effort to cultivate.
Assembling things for a manufacturer can be home based as well (like making artificial flowers, etc). To those looking for ideas, search the web, it's all there!
Finally, this is not a shot at you but just trying to shed some light for those entrepreneurs looking for a home based business. It's nothing personal. Apologies if I offended you.
BTW, your link is not working.
