Let me tell you about a great online source for home business books (and much more), at excellent prices. © GT Bulmer Web Biz Opportunities - StarrBizz.comOne of the best ways to expand your knowledge and give you the competitive advantage in your home based business is to read books written by experienced marketers and business people. I'm sure you already know that you can find unlimited sources for books online. But did you know that the TripleClicks online superstore also sells great books? And some of them are available at prices you won't find anywhere else. When you click the "Books" link in the TripleClicks directory of products and services, you will find around 450 listings. The selection may change from day to day, so if you see something you especially like today, it might be a good idea to pick it up while you can! Here are a few of the home business books listed today:- Conversations With Millionaires, by Mike Litman and Jason Oman: $11.95 - Been There Done That, by Dr. Joe Rubino: $11.95  - The Road Less Traveled, by M. Scott Peck, M.D.: $8.00 - Myths, Lies, and Downright Stupidity, by John Stossel: $1.00 - How Come That Idiot's Rich and I'm NOT?, by Robert Shemin: $6.50 - Why We Want You To Be Rich, Donald J. Trump, Robert T. Kiyosaki: $1.00 - The Millionaire Course, by Marc Allen: $6.95 These are just a few of the business books available in the TripleClicks online store. Not all of the books listed are focused on business; the selection varies between all genres. Also, many of the selections are in CD format. And, of course, TripleClicks isn't only about books. The superstore offers 28 separate categories of products and services and lists many thousands of items. However, today I am focusing on the value of continuous learning and expanding your business and marketing knowledge through the insight and experience of others. Home business books are a great resource for this and the TripleClicks "Books" section is an ideal place to visit regularly to see what's new. Check it out now.

In the previous web biz blog post, I recommended a training program that focuses specifically on sales success. Today, I am reminding you of a professionally designed program that covers the entire range of personal development: The New Psychology of Achievement. © GT Bulmer Web Biz Opportunities - StarrBizz.comAs I just mentioned, this is a reminder post, as I have already mentioned this incredible self-improvement resource in an earlier post. To read it, visit Personal Development Goals, posted on August 10. In that post, I highlight the importance of setting some definite personal development goals for yourself. If you ever hope to maximize your efforts you can't just approach it willy-nilly style ... you need to focus on a well-defined plan of action. Everybody knows that to reach a formerly uncharted destination, you need three things:  1) A Goal 2) A Map 3) A Vehicle With respect to personal development: - The Goal is your destination, what you hope to achieve, the end result. - The Map is your plan of action, the steps you need to take to get to where you are going. - The Vehicle is the resource that will "carry" you from Point A to Point B.  The New Psychology of Achievement is an audio program designed by best-selling author and professional speaker Brian Tracy. This audio program is available in CD or MP3 format. The program will help you keenly define your goals in every area of your life; it will assist you in creating a plan of action, a "roadmap" guaranteed to lead you to your destination; and it will serve as the vehicle to carry you through the entire process. For more of my thoughts, you are welcome to read my previous post highlighting this training program: Personal Development Goals. You are also invited to go directly to Brian's product information page for The New Psychology of Achievement. It offers relative information as well as a short video featuring Brian. Whatever you do, do not relegate this reminder to your "I'll look into it later" file. Take time to deal with it now. Personal development is far too important to be trivialized... because the levels of success and achievement you hope to attain in the future depend on the steps you take today, right now.  The sooner you determine your specific goals and map out a clear plan of action, the sooner you can get on the road and begin moving towards your desired destination. If you value personal achievement, now is the time to look into The New Psychology of Achievement, available in CD or MP3.

You can find many entrepreneur resources for your home business, online, but here is an entrepreneur community that offers a whole lot of value all in one location! © GT Bulmer Web Biz Opportunities - StarrBizz.comA home business marketing friend asked me recently why I advertise and promote the EvanCarmichael.com web site as much as I do. He wanted to know if there was an affiliate program involved or if I was being compensated to do it. Well, the answer to the second part is, no, there is no affiliate program and I receive no direct compensation for doing it. Benefits I receive from the site are no different than those available to any active member of the EvanCarmichael.com community. The answer to the first part is I do it because I honestly and sincerely appreciate the value that Evan Carmichael has built into his website.  If you have never been there, or if you have been there only briefly, you need to pay Evan's site a visit, browse around, get to know it a bit better and you will see exactly what I mean. EvanCarmichael.com is a virtual treasure trove of entrepreneur resources:==> Are you looking for inspiration from Famous Entrepreneurs? You will find plenty of famous profiles there. ==> Are you looking for tips and information to help build or strengthen your home business? You will find an impressive selection of articles, guides and related resources there. ==> Are you looking for a community of like-minded entrepreneurs with whom you can exchange ideas, insight and encouragement? You will find it in the Entrepreneur Forums on Evan's site. ==> Are you looking for a high-traffic website where you can have your articles and blog(s) featured? EvanCarmichael.com provides for that, too. I have been a home business entrepreneur for many years and in order to become a better marketer, I have always watched for sources of relative information, insight, inspiration and resources. There are endless such resources available on the Internet. What's great about Evan's site is that he brings so much of it together all in one convenient spot. I have also been a huge fan of self-improvement and personal development. My shelves are filled with books, videos and CDs of the masters of motivational material. The EvanCarmichael.com website has brought me into the 21st Century with articles, stories and videos of contemporary business leaders as well as many of the grand masters of the industry. One more reason why I like advertising and promoting Evan's site is because I believe in sharing valuable information with others for their benefit. That is my aim as an online entrepreneur: to discover beneficial programs and resources and pass that information on to others. With that thought in mind, let me close with an encouragement to you to visit EvanCarmichael.com today and discover for yourself an incredible array of entrepreneur resources for your home business.

How serious are you about creating your own product to give away or sell on the Internet? An eBook is a great idea, but it can be challenging. If it is something you are thinking about, here are a few web biz eBook tips.© GT Bulmer Web Biz Opportunities - StarrBizz.com Most home based Internet business marketers know that once you gain enough experience and confidence, it is wise to think about creating your own web biz products to market online. You might sell them, or give them away as a reward to paying customers. Or you might simply offer them as incentives to help build your email list. Whatever purpose you have for creating your own product, a web biz eBook is a great choice because it doesn't have to cost much to create and distribute, it doesn't take a lot of specialized knowledge to produce one, and you can personalize an eBook in a way that few other products allow. However, some of the elements involved in both the production end of creating the eBook and in the marketing that must follow may challenge your time, your patience ... and your commitment to the eBook project! But don't worry, it's worth the effort and if you use recommended eBook software to guide you, it will reduce the stress. The first step is choosing the topic of the eBook. Most web biz marketers look within their own marketing niche to find a suitable subject. Do some research to determine a topic that will have meaning, purpose and value for your targeted readers. The best topic will focus on filling a specific need or offering a solution. The second step is writing the eBook. Again, first do some research and planning to make certain your content is highly relative, informative, effective and well organized so the reader can follow it, apply it and benefit from it. This may take some time to research and put together, but remember, your reputation is at stake. When all is said and done, you'll be glad you made the effort and the rewards for quality will make it all worthwhile. The third step is determining how you will market the eBook. How you choose to promote it may influence how you plan and prepare for other steps in the process. A few common promotional methods are: - Basic Blogging - Article Marketing - Promoting to an existing email list - Forums and other Social Networking - Pay Per Click - ClickBank - Advertising in newsletters, ezines, etc. The Next StepsOnce the eBook is written and you have some firm ideas about the marketing methods you plan to use, here is a list of tasks to consider that will take you through the next stages of the project: - Choose the design components: page layout, text styles, graphics, cover design - Create an attractive, appealing sales page - Create a lead capture page - Create a Thank You page - Create any necessary or preferred legal policies: disclaimer, privacy policy, terms of use, etc. - Set up an autoresponder system to capture your customer details and to deliver the Thank You message and the link to the eBook - Set up or plan a tracking system so you can monitor the performance of the various marketing methods and also to allow for the split testing of different sales pages - Create a series of follow-up emails for your customers; one set can be for captured prospects who have not yet purchased the eBook and one set containing follow-up offers for customers who have purchased the eBook As you can see, many factors go into making and effectively marketing a quality eBook. It can be a big responsibility that requires focus, commitment and organization. If you are up to the challenge, using these web biz eBook tips to create your own product can be rewarding in a variety of ways!

Long URLs can be a pain to work with. Here are two URL shorteners that I recommend.© GT Bulmer Web Biz Opportunities - StarrBizz.comI don't know about you, but personally I think long URLs look ugly and unprofessional and sometimes they just cause problems because of their length. There may be circumstances where long URLs are not so obvious and are therefore acceptable. But in places where your customers, prospects or readers do see the URL, a short URL takes up less space and in my opinion, looks much nicer. There are many URL shorteners on the market. Here are two that I recommend: 1) Turn your long URL into a nuURL with just one click!Just as the headline suggests, nuURL is quick and easy and best of all, it's free! If you would also like to track your hits, create custom links and add descriptions, simply register at the nuURL site and you will be able to do those things. Now, suppose I wanted to tell you about a news story or an informative article on a website. The URL to the page could be quite long. For example, the one below is 87 characters. Some links are even longer. http://www.thinkgreen4life.com/environmental/environmental-changes-can-affect-everyone/Using nuURL, I shortenened this 87-character URL down to just 21 characters: http://nuurl.us/8495e Visit nuURL right now - nuURL - and try it. Bookmark the page into your "favourites" so you can find it easily when you need it. 2) Make long URLs usable! Create a tiny URL that will not break in email postings.TinyURL.com will shorten your URL quickly, easily and without any cost. Use the random URL created by TinyURL or create a custom URL of your own choosing. Using TinyURL, I turned this long URL: http://www.thinkgreen4life.com/environmental/environmental-changes-can-affect-everyone/...into this: http://tinyurl.com/dxt5kaIt can be very handy to shorten a long URL; on the Social Networking site, Twitter, for example. On Twitter, you only have 140 characters to work with. You don't want to use them all up with a long URL. It's true, Twitter will automatically shorten your long URLs, but only after you enter the long URL and use up all your characters. Use one of the URL shorteners I have recommended FIRST, then paste the shortened URL into Twitter and you will have plenty of room to post other text. URL shorteners can help make your posts look much more appealing and professional, whether you post on Twitter, in emails, blogs articles or wherever. Check out nuURL and TinyURL today!

Here's a free online resource that lets you do some amazing things with your photos. It's quick, easy ... and free!© GT Bulmer Web Biz Opportunities - StarrBizz.comI'm a "do-it-yourself" kind of guy, even though I should be outsourcing things. While trying to squeeze some time in to practice making banners and graphics for my home based web biz I found this really cool tool that lets you enjoy some photo fun for your web biz. The website is called JPGfun.com. You can use it to create interesting, unique or humorous images for your, blog, social sites or whatever. What you do is upload any photo of your choice from your computer, then choose from a selection of frames, effects and magazine covers and insert your photo. The whole process takes only a couple of minutes - faster, once you know what you are doing. Once your photo has been "adjusted," if you want you can copy the image html directly from the site. Or you can do what I did: - Create the image - Save it to your computer - Upload it to your website server and use that as your image URL I didn't spend a lot of time experimenting with this resource; just wanted to test the tool to make sure it truly was simple and quick so I could recommend it to you. It took me about four minutes to create and save five different graphics. You will see one of them below. It's a "cute" one that I particularly like. To do something similar, simply click the JPGfun.com link, go to the site and let your creativity run wild! Go ahead - have some photo fun. Make yourself (or a friend) a star!

If you have ever wondered how to compete more effectively in the fast-paced business of Internet Marketing - or in any area of your life - here is my personal recommendation.© GT Bulmer Web Biz Opportunities - StarrBizz.comIn today's economy, if you want to get ahead and rise above the rest in your home based web biz or in any form of online marketing or in other areas of your life, you need to get the competitive advantage. In my experience, it all comes down to knowledge and mental perspective. If you ever hope to out-think and out-smart your competition, you need to learn up-to-date techniques, improve your skills and sharpen your strategies of applied psychology. There are few modern-age teachers capable of coaching you through this process better than Brian Tracy. Brian is considered by many to be the leading authority on personal and professional success. Being a student of Brian's material, I can personally recommend his extensive collection of books, audio programs, DVDs and training programs as being informative, educational, inspirational and most important of all, effective for the purpose. Now, Brian has just released an update of one of his most popular programs. The New Psychology of Achievement is a completely new version of his best-selling classic, The Psychology of Achievement. Brian notes that much has changed in the world since the Psychology of Achievement was created and produced in 1983. The new version addresses all of the changes. Included in The New Psychology of Achievement are:- The 7 mental laws that determine your potential - The Law of incremental improvement - The Keys to persuasion - The 12-step goal method - And much more!The New Psychology of Achievement will help you "learn more, learn it faster and apply it at lightning speed," says Brian. I've mentioned before in my web biz blog that I have several of Brian's programs in my personal library. The thing that strikes me most about Brian's presentation style is that it is easy, comfortable and completely free of "rah-rah" style dramatics. Brian presents down-to-earth concepts that simply radiate common sense and true wisdom. You can use Brian's ideas and concepts to accomplish more in weeks and months than you ever before thought was possible. The New Psychology of Achievement will show you how to get the competitive advantage, accomplish your goals and achieve outstanding success now. I fully recommend this completely new version of the best-selling classic. Imagine the possibilities! Sincerely, GT Bulmer StarrBizz.com - Home Based Internet Business Ideas and Opportunities==> More information: The New Psychology of Achievement

We all dream of making it big on the Internet. Some of us do! It all starts with a good assemblage of Home Business Resources.© GT Bulmer Web Biz Opportunities, StarrBizz.comNewcomers to home based Internet marketing always have a bit of a challenge getting their home business set up. So much to learn. So much to do. So many tools and resources to research and decide on. There are a few basics; a few "must haves" and we all have our favourites. Leading the list of home business resources is the need to have your own website. If you want to market online, you simply have to have your own website. Affiliate sites are fine for basic selling, but you need to create your own unique identity and you need to have "creative control" over the website content and design and, of course, your marketing future. For me, Host4Profit has been serving my needs. I have been very happy with their hosting package and their support services. Host4Profit offers an affiliate program. It is also available through the Plug-In Profit Site program. HostGator is another provider of web hosting services. HostGator is economical and provides everything from basic site hosting to Reseller web hosting, dedicated server hosting and free web hosting to qualifying non-profit organizations. An affiliate program is available with HostGator. Additionally, it is part of the Plug-In Profit Site program. As a home based Internet marketer, you need products and services to sell. You will find a variety of products and services throughout the Internet. Many marketers look to ClickBank.com for commissionable items to sell. Another great source providing a range of products and services is the SFI Marketing Group. Between their 7,000-plus item catalog, TripleClicks (their new international superstore) and the newly updated and simplified SFI 3.0 Maximum Income Plan, SFI has strengthened their position as a leading online affiliate marketing program. SFI is included in the portfolio of affiliate programs included with the Plug-In Profit Site plan. Once you have a website and a selection of products and services to promote, you will want to make sure your site is optimized for the search engines to maximize its potential in the SERPs (search engine results pages). Your aim is to land your web pages, blogs and articles on the first page of the SERPS. The best way to assure a higher search engine rank is to follow recognized SEO (search engine optimization) practices. The best SEO resource that I have found for home business is Suzanne Morrison's 3 Steps to Search Engine Success eBook. This eBook simplifies the process and presents it in words easy to understand and follow. Thanks to Suzanne's recommendations, my website, blog posts and articles consistently appear on the first pages of search results for many of my chosen keyword phrases. Talking about blog posts, articles and website content, one source I use for content information and inspiration is InfoGoRound. InfoGoRound (IGR) provides thousands of top quality private label articles and information products in a wide range of both general and niche categories. The service also includes online software to help you generate instant newsletters and training courses using IGR content. While you are working on creating and distributing web content to help promote your website and products and attract visitors to your website, you will want to find out what methods and means other marketers use make their business a success. Social Networking is another resource of great value to your home based business. I am a big advocate of online business and marketing forums. A couple of my favourites include: - Conquer Your Niche- Evan Carmichael Entrepreneur Forums- Plug-In Profit Site Support Group inside the Warrior ForumIn addition to business and marketing forums, there are also numerous Social Networking sites to take part in. Currently, I spend time every day at Twitter where members post short, but frequent "tweets" to keep each other up to date with their ongoing activity. To help build my Twitter following faster, I use the TweeterGetter service. The last resource I will mention today is training and mentorship support. If you try to do it all yourself, online marketing can be a long process of trial and error. To speed it up, you can follow the lead of experienced marketers. I recommend the Niche Power Group (NPG) for personalized, hands-on Internet Marketing mentorship. Membership in the NPG includes access to training guides, marketing resources and personal guidance from a team of successful mentors. Included here are some of the most notable items on my personal list of Home Business Resources. Every marketer has their own preferences. If you are looking for some ideas, you can't go wrong with any of the resources mentioned today.
