Who else is genuinely and seriously interested in establishing a profitable, productive, and ultra-enjoyable home-based business in 2011? Do you believe you need to invest hundreds or even thousands of dollars in gurus, product launches, independent study programs, or other dubious nonsense to make it happen? Think again! The simple truth is, if you have passion and a plan, there’s absolutely nothing you can’t achieve within the next 12 months. And I’m about to give you the simplest solution for turning your interest into profit right below.
**Filed Under: The Power of Straight Lines**
Let me share the truth with you — and here's the GOOD news: If you grasp the simplicity of straight lines and learn how to avoid distractions, you could be earning a full-time living in an extremely short time using this straightforward strategy.
### Step 1: Choose Your Interest
You already know this intuitively. You don’t need market research tools or keyword analysis software, nor do you need to understand sophisticated online marketing jargon. Just focus on where your talents lie and start from there.
### Step 2: Create Articles
Much like what you're reading right now. Articles, similar to this one, can either take a significant investment of your time or be produced relatively quickly. I can write four of these in an hour, and whether you believe it or not, so can you.
### Step 3: Build a Community
Use your articles to build a community. You do this primarily by creating a traditional squeeze page or newsletter. Regardless of anything else you take away from this article, if you're serious about building a lucrative work-from-home business that’s at least somewhat automated, you MUST build a list. No exceptions.
### Step 4: Develop a Curriculum
Essentially, you need to organize your articles into a structured program — a class, a coachable curriculum, a series of audio lessons, or even, using the "old school" method, create a simple PDF eBook. (This is the least effective but easiest for beginners)
### The Linear Approach
At its most basic level, your content builds your community. And your enhanced content becomes your curriculum. Between 3% to 5% of your community WILL buy your offerings (or become customers and consumers). The more passionate you are, the more purposeful you feel, the more profitable your business will be. And the best part? All you need to do it is outlined above. (No joke!)
So, who's ready to get started?
