A Truly Great Business Idea...No Kidding!

There are few areas of modern business growing as rapidly and successfully as that of franchising. It is a great way for young entrepreneurs to get their foot into the business world. Take an existing brand, expand it, put your own spin on the best of the ideas, and work a business model that has been proven to be successful. Among the franchising opportunities in America today, few of them are as popular and youthful as that of the kid’s market. Toy stores and other franchises geared toward the younger set are quickly becoming one of the top franchise markets of today’s world. Perhaps it is because young business people are not so far removed being kids themselves that they can remember what children of all ages like to play with and what is likely to appeal to them. Whatever the reason, the fact cannot be denied that the kid’s/children's market is to be taken seriously by the wise businessperson.

What makes the kid’s market so valuable in today’s business world is the fact that today, more than ever, kids are in control of their parents income. This was not nearly as true fifteen or twenty years ago. Americans spend more than 100 billion dollars a year for their children’s necessities, not to mention their entertainment. With this kind of money in the economy up for grabs, it’s no wonder the kids’ market is thriving. That number, according to many industry analysts, is only going to grow in the coming years, far ahead of the rate of inflation.

One of the reasons for this rapid growth in the industry could be the disappearance of the traditional one-working-parent family system. While this is decried by some family experts, the fact remains that many families are now home to two working parents, that are trying to juggle career and children rather than doing one or the other. This leads to two things: more expendable income and less time with the children. This means children must fend for themselves when it comes to their entertainment many times, and this of course leads to greater amounts of spending in that area.

In addition to entertainment items, what cannot be ignored are the huge opportunities in the world of providing day care and extra-curricular activities for these young children. Combined with the need for necessities, it has created a wide open world of franchise and business ideas and possibilities. The market simply cannot be ignored by anyone wishing to enter an industry with unlimited growth potential. If you are someone who wants to go into business for yourself but aren’t sure what market to focus on, you could do worse than build something around the kids market. It’s not going anywhere that's for sure, and it could provide you and your family with a wonderful income for years to come.

To Your Success,

Make the Leap to Home Business Success

Before you can have a successful home based business, you must first possess 3 "intangibles." These are things that must come from WITHIN you.

===> Intangible 1 <===

First,you must have a strong WHY.

Why MUST you have a successful home business? What is driving you? What is it that you CAN'T have in your life anymore and/or what is it that you absolutely MUST HAVE now?

For me, I couldn't stand working 12+ hours a day anymore and missing the experience of my children growing up. I also absolutely HAD TO HAVE the freedom of being able to control my life and finances through a little box (laptop computer) that I could carry with me anywhere in the world and not be tied to anyone's time pressures or demands but my own. That was my carrot and my stick. I felt a great pain deep in my gut of missing out on my children's lives and the incredible freedom that succeeding in a home based business would provide for me. I found my why. You MUST find yours.

===> Intangible 2 <===

You must BELIEVE that it is possible.

If you don't believe that it's POSSIBLE for you to have a successful home based business or make your living from home, you won't. It's that simple.

For me, figuring out that it was possible was just a matter of realizing that many other people were ALREADY making great money working from home. If they could do it, I could too. It would just be a matter of figuring out what those people were doing and then adapting it to my situation.

There is no shortage of undeniable PROOF that people (millions of them) are making money working from home. Just get online and do some research and you'll find countless testimonials and stories of REAL PEOPLE making real money on the Internet. Or head to your local bookstore and you'll find the same documented evidence of this fact. Truth is, it's getting easier and easier to make money with your own home based business.

I've always said that "affiliate marketing" (a simple way to make money from home) is the job of the future. In the old days, you had to go to a potential employer, apply for the position and hope for the best. Now you can simply go to any company you want, fill out their affiliate application and start work immediately. Affiliates are the new working class. In fact, making money with affiliate programs or making your living on the Internet is WAY MORE than possible. It is pretty much (or will be soon enough) unavoidable now. Affiliate marketing is the "job" of the future that's already here TODAY.

===> Intangible 3 <===

You must be willing to MAKE THE LEAP.

Ready, FIRE, then aim... This is the operating philosophy you MUST adopt to succeed with a home based business.

That's backwards for most people who like to aim before they fire. The fact is that home based business success is a moving target... The only thing constant about it is change. You need to stop analyzing the game and simply jump into it. You can't learn from the outside... You have to be *IN THE RING* to truly understand and profit from it. In fact, this is a business where you can truly be earning WHILE you're still learning...

The lesson here is that you will never really be READY to start a home based business. You simply have to start one. It's like having children... You're never really ready, but when it happens you adapt and grow and therefore you succeed. This is what I call: "Making the Leap"!

The good news is that the cost of failure with having your own home based business is very small. In the "brick and mortar" world you need to evaluate things very carefully before you decide to open up a business. It's almost always necessary to invest thousands of dollars to get an offline business off the ground. However, on the Internet you can often start a successful business for less than $100. The Plug-In Profit Site is a great example of this where you can get your own money-making site setup free within 24 hours:

You simply need get IN THE GAME... Each moment that you stay "out there," you're wasting valuable time that you could be learning and skills necessary to build a successful home based business. In fact, if you're not in the game yet, you're ALREADY behind the times... Make the leap to starting and building a successful home business TODAY!
