many ways you can make extra money

There are so many ways you can make extra money from home and much of it depends on your skills and time that you can dedicate to it.
Everyone has some special skills or knowledge about some particular subjects and that information can be very valuable to a lot of people.
Maybe you are an expert on making crafts, woodworking, photography, cooking, gardening, whatever… find something you are good at, something you enjoy doing, and that can become your niche. If you pick something you really enjoy doing, something you are passionate about, it won’t feel like work will it? Okay, so now you have a niche product to start with, but how do you start to make money with it?
You can have the best product on the planet but you have to let people know about it. Now this product can be an actual item that people can use or it can be valuable information you have on the subject, like your to-die-for secret apple pie, or your instructions on how to make replacement parts for teddy bears. You would be surprised at what people search for online, think of something maybe odd to you and search for it sometimes, you’ll be amazed!
Advertising your product and letting people know about it is probably going to be the most difficult part of starting your new business, especially online.
Now where do you plan on selling your product or service?
Local mall or your own store, flea markets, mail order, ebay, classified ads? Again, there are many choices and you should look at every opportunity, the more places people can see and buy your products the better.

The main reason for mentioning all this is because some people only look at the online method and end up losing out on many other possible sales.
Whether starting a business online or on your street corner there are certain basic steps to follow if you are to be successful, just ask any successful business owner.

No matter where you sell your product you first need to get traffic to your store or website. The more people come to your store, the more sales you will make. Very basic rule for any business, but how do you get this traffic? If you have a corner store on a busy street where people shop everyday, your traffic should be much better than if your little store is hiding behind some factory. You must let people know where to find you because your little site is now hiding in the largest mall in the world called the internet but don’t let that scare you away because there are many ways to advertise without costing you a fortune.
