It’s no secret that work-at-home opportunities are pretty inviting for any age group, especially those living in urban areas where the traffic can be a living hell, but why are retirees in particular starting to pursue these opportunities in droves? These are a few of my opinions about this growing megatrend. Retirees have the self-discipline to work. After a lifetime of experience, retirees tend to adapt well to working from home.

4 TIPS TO SAVE MONEY ON FACEBOOK ADVERTISING
There is no doubt in my mind that for the majority of people that are untrained and go and place FB ads promoting their business you will burn a truck load of money in trying to attract new customers.
We have a FB ad campaign manager that has studied and accredited with FB methods where many of the unwary post ads and will just do the “hope and pray” that it works.
What does a campaign FB ad manager do? She split tests different ads to get the highest conversion for you. She will see an ad not doing well and she will tweak it for you. She guards your money like her own so you do not waste anymore.
But here are the 4 tips I promised that I have sourced for you.
1) Conversion pixel.
Every Facebook advertiser should create a conversion pixel with their ad campaigns, your conversion pixel will track your cost per acquisition.
2) Placement.
Advertisers are able to gauge their performance on the news feed on desktop computers; news feed on mobile devices, right column ads on homepage on homepage for desktop computers and more – this is definitely something you can split test.
3) Time of day.
Just like you have a time of day when you are most productive, online shoppers having buying patterns that can be easily detected within Ads Manager, under “breakdown” and “By Time” you can start to segment your traffic.
4) Age and gender
If you see that the 18-24 year old females love your flannel shirt, you can invest more money into this type of targeting to help generate more sales. There is no need targeting 27-30 year old guys if you see a lackluster performance in this group.

Marketing Strategies for Your Retirement Business
If you’re retired and you weren’t born with a silver spoon in your mouth, chances are you’re looking into getting an online business to help you make money and prosper in your retirement years. After all, retirement’s supposed to be fun! Here are some marketing strategies that might help you out.
Stay Focused
No matter what you try to do online, staying focused is going to be your most important ally. If you’re in the making-money-online niche, all of your posts, videos, and ads should appeal to people who are interested in that niche. If you’re in the spiritual niche, then all your content should appeal to that. Know who you are and what you represent. Figure out what kind of person would love to find your services, and speak to that person whenever you write something or put something on social media.
Stay Up-to-Date
No matter what niche you’re in, you’re not alone. Try to read some of the other contributors in your niche. If you’re in the trucking business, see what trucking blogs there are, and comment on their work and/or quote them in a blog post. Realistically, you’re never going to be in a niche all by yourself, and you might be able to serve your clients by exposing them to new trends in the industry or people in the profession who have something to say.
Stay the Course
Don’t give up too soon. In fact, if you’re sure you have something good to offer, and you’re failing, then it’s probably not the product that is the problem. And it’s probably not the niche. It’s probably not your fault, but the problem is probably you.
Most of the time, people who try to earn a living online think that it looks easy — and it is, if you already know how to do it! — and they jump in with both feet and then wonder why they flounder. Everybody who’s successful got a mentor at some point. You just can’t do it without one.
A mentor with years of experience can take a look at your marketing materials and usually tell you in about 10 minutes or less why you’re failing. It’s a shame so many people quit so soon, because most of the time it’s some really simple problem that needs to be fixed — like the verbiage in your advertisement not being quite relatable enough to your landing page.
Here’s a quick example: Let’s say you’re running an ad that says, “Let me show you how I made $5,000 in one month using very easy-to-build Facebook ads. Click here for info.” And let’s say that a bunch of people were curious and clicked on your ad. They then go to a “landing page,” also called a “lead capture page,” where they are expecting to read about how you make this kind of money in one month using Facebook ads.
However, you’ve got a lot of extra verbiage and it doesn’t seem pertinent. For example, you say, “Hi, thanks for clicking through. My mother never said I’d amount to anything, and in our home town of Whereisit, Illinois, nobody ever did. We all had dogs and pet alligators. And I think we should declare alligators as an endangered species in Illinois. But I went to school at the University of …” So even if you’re going to lead up to the information about Facebook ads, you lose your audience by not getting right to it, and they click away without reading your priceless content.
Don’t let yourself be too discouraged about your retirement business. It will take time, and there’s a learning curve involved, but making money online is not quite as hard as you might think it is when you have a great product and a mentor or coach to help guide you.
As always, please let me know what you’re thinking in the comments section below. I’m here to help you find your way if you decide this kind of lifestyle is for you. Click here for more information about great products to sell online.

Work Online and Love It!
Wouldn’t it be great to work online? You could go anywhere you want – all you’d have to do is pack your laptop and go. Today I’m going to tell you about some real people who do just that.
The traveling couple: I know of a couple who have been on the road for about five years. Their daughter was only 1 year old when they left the states, laptops and surfboards in hand. They make phone calls, Skype calls, and do hangouts from the road to keep in touch with clients. They conduct seminars and other educational events to teach people how they manage to live a dream life and surf the best waves the world over. Their child has one of the richest educations imaginable and has friends all over the globe.
In reality, there are many couples who do this. When you first hear of it, it seems rather unusual. But the longer you’ve been working online, the more people you hear of who have been doing it quietly for years.
The travel blogger: Not necessarily a couple, but a person who loves traveling and lives to write about it. Being an excellent photographer also makes it easier to make a living this way. There are several ways to earn a living by traveling, laptop in hand.
Some travel bloggers can write about a lot of different topics. Most of them talk about tourism, the best places to eat and stay, local entertainment, etc. Some talk about the conditions of the native populations, the health of the ecosystem in the area, and the trade or lack of it. Almost all travel bloggers seem to bond with the people of the areas they’re enjoying, so they can give you a great feel for local color.
Scientific researchers: These people study animals or other natural features of the landscapes they’re exploring. You’ve seen all those shows on National Geographic, right? Well, somebody is making a living traveling around the world and making these films. Thanks to technology, these kinds of jobs are becoming more and more prevalent, and bosses are being more open to the idea of work-at-home or work-overseas employees or independent contractors.
If you decide to do this, you should make sure and do something you love. If you want to make money, you should explore opportunities in the money-making niche. If you want to explore the health and fitness of people all over the world, than you’ll want to explore the health and fitness niche to find ways to fund your travels. You can find sponsors, you can sell health and fitness packages, or you could conduct a series of workshops, perhaps based on a book, in many countries.
Let your mind wander and start brainstorming all the ways you can make money online. I’ve been involved in the online marketing community for over a year, and the experience gets richer over time. Before you know it, your “laptop lifestyle” will seem very normal to you, but probably far more gratifying than you can imagine.
Have you ever experienced the laptop lifestyle? Do you want to work online and love it? Please let me know what you’re thinking in the comments section below. As always, I’m here to help you find your way if you decide this kind of lifestyle is for you.
Five Reasons to Earn Cash Online
They say that money can’t buy happiness, but extra money can sure help you solve problems. If you could earn cash online, wouldn’t that help you out? Even a couple of hundred extra dollars a month would help.
For most people, trying to get a raise for a few hundred extra per month is a big chore. You have to really convince your boss that you deserve it, and your boss may be tied to a pay structure that he or she has no control over. If you work in a government agency, your desk is only going to pay so much, and no more. It doesn’t matter how good you are. And if you’re the shy, quiet type, you don’t even want to ask.
Why not get a part-time job online that will earn you a few hundred extra per month? It’s easier than ever to do it! In fact, file for a business license and you can actually get into a viable, profitable business and be able to choose your own best way to earn.
Here are five things I learned about online businesses that you should know:
- It’s much easier to start a business online than it is in any other setting. Not only is the initial cash investment very low, but you don’t have to go through any job interviews!
- You get tax write-offs working from home that you will never get from a raise on your job. (Obviously, ask your accountant about this – I can’t give tax advice.)
- There are a lot of successful business people who are more than happy to help you. Even if you don’t know them personally, you can just find some people you admire who are earning money online, watch what they do, and learn from them.
- If you’re lucky like I was, you’ll run across an amazing educational system that will literally teach you every step along the way.
- With any business, whether online or off-line, coaching is vital. If I didn’t have a coach, I really don’t know what I would do or how far I could get. Fortunately, I did find a system that provided both step-by-step instruction AND coaching.
Now, back to the happiness factor: will money, all by itself, make you happy? Probably not, but money can help you when you’re sick, when you want to go out and have fun with friends, if you’re trying to impress that special someone with a little gift, or when you want to go back to school and learn something. In short, there are very few problems that having a little extra cash can’t help. Wealthy people know this, and that’s why they always have cash reserves and multiple income streams.
I’ve been working online for less than a year now, and I already feel like I’ve had scales removed from my eyes. I really had no idea how lucrative it is to get plugged into a simple system online and start teaming up with people with proven track records. I invite you to join me and earn cash online so that you can start having a happier life. And if there is anything I can share with you, or any questions I can answer, please feel free to leave a comment below.

Online Strategies for Growing Your Retirement Income
Growing Your Retirement Income. Thanks to Social Security, Superannuation, and other programs around the world, many people have a guaranteed retirement income. And we have a lot to be grateful for because of it. When that income pales in comparison to the expenses we’re facing in retirement, then we have a responsibility to take care of the gap.
So what are you going to do? What is your plan B?
While we’re super-fortunate to be living in the developed countries where prosperity abounds, we still fall into traps that you might think would be obsolete by now. We still put off doing things we need to do – like plan for retirement, take care of our health, make living Trusts to take care of handing off wealth to our offspring, etc. You’d think that as a group, anyone in the 60+ age range would have heard enough data and had enough experience to make all these arrangements a no-brainer.
Let’s not put it off another day. Let’s figure out some strategies for growing your income, no matter what age you are or where you’re starting.
Business Ownership vs. Employee Status
To my mind, the best way to earn money is by starting a small business. This is not really hard to do, and ensures that you’re in control of your income. Employees are mostly controlled by their income, because they have to wait for someone else to make decisions about raises, salary, benefits, and even schedule. When you’re a business owner, it’s all up to you.
Tax-wise, being a business owner makes sense, too. I’m not an accountant and can’t legally make accounting claims, but from what I know, you can have a small business in your house and write off the rent for that particular room on your annual taxes. This can be a huge blessing. Many people hire family members to do jobs within the business, keeping the money in the family and giving you a tax break while helping your teenager learn to do a job.
Owning a business is a great strategy.
Advertise Online
Whether you have a product to sell or a service, advertising can really cost. You might think that it only costs $20 a month to advertise at the local golf course, but when your advertising yields a ROI of exactly $0, then it’s $20 a month too much.
People who use traditional methods of advertising are used to the blanket style of marketing. They’re concerned that a lot of people see their ads, so they blanket the area. But they’re never going to have an idea of how many sales are directly attributed to those ads.
In online marketing, you’re not very concerned about how many people see your ad, because you have the power to make sure the RIGHT people see your ad. For example, if you’re selling coaching sessions, you can target your ads to people who are actually looking for coaching. What a gift!
Online ads have another advantage. They can actually tell you how many people saw the ad and how many of those people actually took the next action step. For example, I might have an ad running on Facebook that 400 people click on. All those people go to my landing page. When they get there, they’ll decide whether or not to take the next step and click on the button. Using the magic of tracking, I can actually tell how many people click on the link and convert from prospects to leads.
Owning a business and advertising online are two great strategies to help you grow your retirement income. As always, please let me know what you’re thinking in the comments section below. I’m here to help you find your way if you decide this kind of lifestyle is for you. Read More

Is It Hard to Make Money from Home?
Is It Hard to Make Money from Home?
A lot of us are hearing these days that it’s easy to make money from home. But it doesn’t make sense, does it? After all, if it were easy, everyone would be doing it. And if you come from a blue collar background like my family does, there are a lot of beliefs about money, mostly about how it’s hard to make, harder to keep, and hoarded by greedy people.
Let’s look at some of those:
We’re not used to having it
If you’ve had to struggle to get money your whole life, you’re going to be rather suspicious of any opportunity or person who suggests that it’s not that hard to get.
We’ve got a lot of momentum behind the need to struggle
If you’ve struggled your whole life about money and trying to get it, it’s pretty hard to stop that steamroller in our heads that tells us it’s not easy to make. We have beliefs about the kind of schools you have to go to, job titles you have to have, moral character you have to sacrifice, etc.
We’re afraid of money issues
If you’ve never had loads of money stockpiled into several accounts and investments, deep down you might be afraid that you wouldn’t know what to do with it if you ever got it. haven’t you heard all those horror stories of people winning the lottery only to lose it again within about two years?
We’re uneducated about money
If you got money, would you know how to invest it? Do you know how to set up the tax benefits that rich people know how to set up? Do you know how the traditionally wealthy people (the ones with “old money”) set up their lives?
Fortunately, there is a way to learn about money management while you make it. It’s called the process of Mastermind.
A Mastermind is a group that gets together on a regular basis for the sole purpose of helping each other succeed. In the ones I go to, we have experts in the fields of finance, sales, online marketing, and a host of other topics. We also have each other for support, and we come from every spectrum of life – various countries, backgrounds, races, beliefs, etc., so we can mix and match what we know. (And we do it in a beautiful location, so we can get used to feeling rich!)
I found all this through a very simple 21-step program offered by MOBE (My Online Business Education). MOBE has been in business for around 7 years now and has stood the test of time when it comes to teaching people to make money from home.
It feels good to know things now that nobody’s ever been able to teach me in the past – things that can not only help me make more, but also enable me to help the people I love. And now that I’ve gotten first-rate education, I’m dedicated to helping you make the money you want to make online and find the freedom that comes with it. Please contact me by commenting below.
