Four Unique Ways to Earn an Extra $250 to $400 Each Month

I knew that I needed to find a way to generate some extra cash each month, and I also knew that I didn't want to get involved in affiliate marketing, surveys, reading e-mails, etc... I've never been afraid to put in a hard days work, so I decided that I needed to get back to the basics to come up with some "UNIQUE" ways to generate additional income. Keeping in mind that service is the wave of the future, I decided I would need to focus on the following:

1. Services that everyday people need help performing

2. Services to help other business owners, so that they can enhance the services that they offer to their customers

3. Avoiding any business that requires making cold calls, posting PPC ads, taking surveys and affiliate marketing and bugging family and friends with offers of vitamins, powders and cleaning products

4. Getting back to the basics of good old-fashioned hard work

I spent two weeks searching the web, classified ads and reading articles, then suddenly it hit me. I had to provide a service to other hardworking people, a service they just couldn't refuse. LEAD PROSPECTING!! That was it. Provide local service business with real-time leads that they could use to increase sales. I did it. I had the million dollar idea, but wait, this was too easy, wasn't it?

Here's what I came up with:

- Provide leads to Outdoor Sign Companies telling them where there were broken or burned out business signs all around town

- Provide leads to local handymen/contractors telling them where there are homes needing roofing, gutters, new mailboxes, painting, etc...

- Provide leads to local salvage car dealers telling them where there are junk cars just begging to be picked up and hauled away

- Provide leads to local lawn maintenance companies and/or snow plowing companies telling them where there are homes and businesses in need of their services

My clients love me. It's a win-win for all of us. I provide them with photos and simple reports and they send me a check every two weeks.

How much easier can it get? I ride around in my car listening to audio books on my iPod and make $250-$400 cash each month. I can even use the mileage I rack up as a write-off for tax purposes. This may not actually be the million dollar idea, but so far, it's a couple thousand dollar idea.

How Insomnia and the Internet Helped Me With My Mid-Life Crisis

This conversation occurred the week before Thanksgiving. There I was married to a man having a typical mid-life crisis. You might have guessed that my insomnia got worst as well. Knowing that my income just was not going to be enough. I'm enrolled in school. What was going to happen with my financial aid. How am I going to get extra income? I have been unemployed over 4 years.

Once again not being able to sleep I went online looking for help. I saw so many programs, business opportunities, blogging and on and on. I quickly discovered there were and still are a lot of folks out there doing the same thing I was. Also like a lot of people I purchased some of these items. Quite a few made me feel pretty stupid. I just wanted to find something easy enough for me to do and make some money.

And then I found it. I found a program that can help anyone. This was too easy! I got step by step simple clear precise information. Whether you just want a couple of hundred dollars or more. Basically, you decide how much time and or money (in my case I had very little to start with) to invest and go from there. I started making money then I could afford the advertising. (To make more money!)

This all happened at 3 am. And after I purchased this program and starting reading and learning all this, I just got excited! After reading Kim Hoff's story to start with, I definitely could relate with her. Her My Online Income System I would and have recommend to anyone and everyone. I found it on the internet by chance. So simple to understand and learn. And that morning I was almost happy my husband had his mid-life crisis, that my insomnia was worst then usual and you can find real honest, legit and simple ways of making money on the internet. Plus the advantage of learning at my own pace and at home are just a couple of more reasons I loved this program. http://myfreeaffiliatesite.com/mercury48/
