Within "How To Start A Home Business Online" I have given all the information on the tools and methods I used to get a web presence. With links to all the free online tutorials you'll ever need to build your own website and optimize it as a commercial asset, on a shoestring budget.

I know all this information is out there on the cyberspace highway but it has taken years to sort the wheat from the chaff. A great deal of the information that daily, solicits our inbox by Guru X, Y and Z is grossly outdated. For instance you will get a 1000 + word sales letter expounding the virtues of the latest and best automatic this or that gizmo to promote your site. Many of these gizmo's are outdated methods that will do you more harm than good. Therefore I will keep updating this eBook on a regular basis.

I want to take this opportunity to thank all of the people who left their testimonials at the kimbro.net comments page.

Q.I came to your site for information on "How to start a home business online". I want to start my own business promoting my own product [aged Care product to prevent bed sores] on the internet. I have read and taken onboard what you have written on the site. Although I found your comments to be straight forward and interesting I have to say that I am disappointed. You suggest that to learn the ropes I should join an affiliate program or pay a marketing company to promote my product. Neither of these options appeal to me. Firstly I am excited about promoting my own product and don't want to expend my resources, time and energy promoting someone else's product. Unfortunately I don't have the capital to pay a marketing company to set up and promote a website for me as I would need at least $50,000 to start. You correctly state that there is an information overload on the internet  on this subject. I have purchased countless e-books on the subject - all of them have led me into an unending paper chase.

I came to your site expecting to find a step by step guide on how to start my home business online. I came to this conclusion from the search results on Yahoo. I have copied and pasted the search results below.

1. How To Start A Home Business Online
   How To Start a Home Business Online - A step by step guide on the internet where you can find free tools and information on how to start your home business online. Health, weight loss and nutritional supplements, find all Body Extreme

   kimbro.net - More from this site - Save - Block

 Instead I found a step by step guide on how to start in the Body Extreme business as an affiliate. You obviously know how to set up an online business with a web presence, I've noticed that you are selling your own product "SPACE" on the site. Or did you pay a company to set up this site for you?

If you did set up and promoted this site yourself, why can't you write a step by step guide on how you did it?

Frustrated.

Posted by Julia UK

A. Thank you for your question and constructive criticism. I must admit that at the outset I had intended to write a step by step instruction on how to set up your own business online. I guess that I found the project too daunting. I actually did gain all my knowledge over a period of three years of struggling with affiliate programs. To write down all that I have learnt would entail writing a book there are so many different facets to cover. Probably this is the reason why the information one can access on the internet is so confusing as each e-book covers one or only several of the necessary facets in detail. Your question and trying to figure out an answer for you has led me to an idea. I am going to write an e-book in a step by step format with direct links to all the resources that I have utilized myself.

On completion I will send you a free copy, should be complete in around two weeks. Again thank you for your question which has motivated me into action.

A. Wow "How To Start A Home Business Online" is exactly what I was looking for. Can't believe you put this together in two weeks.

So glad I gave you a nudge! Everything is so clearly explained, you are a gem! Thanks so much.

Very Happy.

Q. I have a beautifull taby cat I  have a difficult time to spray the Zodiac Flea Proof Spray because as soon as I start ,she runs and hide under the couch and she would'nt come out. Please advice what to do and any article about cats would be appreciated very much.

Douglas

A. This is not an unusual problem. The easiest way that I have found is to get a bath towel lay it out flat and lightly spray or powder [if you are using flea powder] it over an area large enough to accommodate your cat. This is best done in a different room to where your cat is, as just the noise of the spray will remind your cat of the nasty experience of a previous treatment. Once your towel is prepared go and pick up your cat, place your cat on the towel and quickly wrap it up in the towel so only the head is left free. Now give your cat a cuddle. All wrapped up in a towel your cat can't escape or scratch you and the medication will rub into your cats coat more effectively than dusting or spraying.

NOTE: Wrapping your cat in a bath towel is also the safest restraint when dosing your cat by mouth or injection.

Q.Do you have marketing that you are testing or happy with? Let us know your thoughts.

Paul. - USA

A. Hi Paul I found that building my own list then find people that built their list. Offer to post your message to their list. In return you post their message to your list. When you post your message to their list offer something in return if they will join your list. I started with 20 people in my list, now have 5000. Started slowly but grows real fast after a time. took me six months.

Q. I am having a problem with a label that I designed (salad in a bottle). I need advise on how to keep it professional and presentable at a low cost for a start.  Can we try and see if anybody can come up with maybe a better idea for a label, or if I can maybe use a online website to design the label myself in order to save money.

 

I also need a supplier that can supply me with the correct bottle.

Hope you can help.

 

ESTELLE - ZA

A. Estelle, my name is Sven Knieling please email me at: svenknieling@yahoo.com.au I can probably help you with your label.

As for the bottle it's probably better to source that in your own country.

IDEAS

 

Read and Learn and then remember this. During a BBQ a friend stumbled and took a little fall - she assured everyone that she was fine (they offered to call paramedics) and that she just tripped over a brick because of her new shoes They got her cleaned up and  got her a new plate of food - while she appeared a bit shaken up, Ingrid  went about enjoying herself the  rest of the evening. Ingrid's husband called later telling everyone that  his wife had been taken to the hospital - (at 6:00pm, Ingrid passed away.) She had suffered a stroke at the BBQ - had they known how to identify the  signs of a stroke perhaps Ingrid would be with us today. It only takes a minute to read this- Recognizing a Stroke -- A neurologist says that if he can get to a stroke victim within 3 hours he can totally reverse the effects of a stroke...totally. He said the trick was getting a stroke recognized, diagnosed and getting to the patient within 3 hours which is tough. RECOGNIZING A STROKE Thank God for the sense to remember the "3" steps. Read and Learn! Sometimes symptoms of a stroke are difficult to identify. Unfortunately, the lack of awareness spells disaster. The stroke victim may suffer brain damage when people nearby fail to recognize the symptoms  of a stroke. Now doctors say a bystander can recognize a stroke by asking three simple  questions: 1. *Ask the individual to SMILE. 2. *Ask him or her to RAISE BOTH ARMS. 3. *Ask the person to SPEAK A SIMPLE SENTENCE (Coherently) (i.e. . . It is  sunny out today) If he or she has trouble with any of these tasks, call  9-1-1 (obviously 0-0-0 for those in Oz) immediately and describe the symptoms to the dispatcher. After discovering that a group of non-medical volunteers could identify facial weakness, arm weakness and speech problems, researchers urged the general public to learn the three questions. They presented their conclusions at the American Stroke Association's annual meeting last February. Widespread use of this test could result in prompt diagnosis and  treatment of the stroke and prevent brain damage. A cardiologist says if everyone who gets this e-mail sends it to 10 people; you can bet that at least one life will be saved. BE A FRIEND AND SHARE THIS ARTICLE WITH AS MANY FRIENDS AS POSSIBLE, you  could save their lives. Cheers Denis. NSW AUS.

Make your own Christmas cards with your computer. To make a template take an A4 sheet of paper fold it in half and then fold it in half again. Write picture on the front - turn the page and write page1 - write page 2 on the facing page turn the page and write back page. Now unfold the paper and lay it flat. You will notice that your paper has 4 sections and the direction of your writing will guide you as to how you have to place your script and artwork in a text and graphics editor page. Once you have completed your script and artwork or photo insert print out your page. Then fold it in 4 as in the first step and voila! you have made your own personal Christmas card.

public discussion about decency

At a fundraising dinner for a school that serves learning disabled children, the father of one of the students delivered a speech that would never be forgotten by all who attended.

After extolling the school and its dedicated staff, he offered a question.

"When not interfered with by outside influences, everything nature does is done with perfection. Yet my son, Shay, cannot
learn things as other children do. He cannot understand things as other children do. Where is the natural order of things in my son?"

The audience was stilled by the query.

The father continued. "I believe, that when a child like Shay comes into the world, an opportunity to realise true human nature
presents itself, and it comes, in the way other people treat that child."

Then he told the following story: Shay and his father had walked past a park where some boys Shay knew were playing baseball.

Shay asked, "Do you think they'll let me play?"   Shay's father knew that most of the boys would not want someone like Shay on their team, but the father also understood that if his son were allowed to play, it would give him a much-needed sense of  belonging Shay's father approached one of the boys on the field and asked if Shay could play.

The boy looked around for guidance and, getting none, he took matters into his own hands and said, "We're losing by six runs and the game is in the eighth inning. I guess he can be on our team and we'll try to put him in to bat in the ninth inning."

In the bottom of the eighth inning, Shay's team scored a few runs but was still behind by three.  In the top of the ninth inning, Shay put on a glove and played in the outfield.  Even though no hits came his way, he was obviously ecstatic just to be in the game and on the field, grinning from ear to ear as his father waved to him from the stands.

In the bottom of the ninth inning, Shay's team scored again. Now, with two outs and the bases loaded, the potential winning run was on base and  Shay was scheduled to be next at bat.

At this juncture, let Shay bat and give away their chance to win the game?

Surprisingly, Shay was given the bat. Everyone knew that a hit was all but impossible 'cause Shay didn't even know how to hold the bat properly, much less connect with the ball.  However, as Shay stepped up to the plate, the pitcher moved in a few steps to lob the ball in softly so Shay could at least be able to make contact.

The first pitch came and Shay swung clumsily and missed. The pitcher again took a few steps forward to toss the ball softly towards Shay. As the pitch came in, Shay swung at the ball and hit a slow ground ball right back to the pitcher.  The pitcher picked up the soft grounder and could have easily thrown the ball to the first baseman. Shay would have been out and that would have been the end of the game.  Instead, the pitcher took the ball and turned and threw the ball on a high arc to right field, far beyond the reach of the first baseman. Everyone started yelling, "Shay, run to first! Run to first!"  Never in his life had Shay ever made it to first base. He scampered down the baseline, wide-eyed and startled.  Everyone yelled, "Run to second, run to second!"

By the time Shay rounded first base, the right fielder had the ball. He could have thrown the ball to the second-baseman for the tag, but he understood the pitcher's intentions and intentionally threw the ball high and far over the third-baseman's head.  Shay ran toward second base  as the runners ahead of him deliriously circled the bases toward home. Shay reached second base, the opposing shortstop ran to him, turned him in the direction of third base, and shouted, "Run to third!"  As Shay rounded
third, the boys from both teams were screaming, "Shay, run home!"  Shay ran to home, stepped on the plate, and was cheered as the hero who hit the "grand slam" and won the game for his team.

"That day," said the father softly with tears now rolling down his face, "the boys from both teams helped bring a piece of true
love and humanity into this world."

AND, NOW A LITTLE FOOTNOTE TO THIS STORY: We all send thousands of jokes through the e-mail without a second thought, but when it comes to sending messages about life choices, people think twice about sharing. The crude, vulgar, and often obscene pass freely through cyberspace, but public discussion about decency is too often suppressed in our
schools and workplaces.
