What sort of legit work from home jobs are there, and how do you get them?

Because so many 'work at home' opportunities are scams, frauds, or designed to make money - for the plan operators, not you - it's a good idea that before you invest time and especially money on any home-based business offers, you educate yourself on the different types of home work based schemes there are out there, and what to look for - and what to look out for - before making any commitment\n\nThe Federal Trade Commission offers several advisories about home-based business opportunities and network marketing (MLM) schemes.  Here are a few: \n\n"Work at home Schemes" http://www.ftc.gov/bcp/conline/pubs/invest/homewrk.htm \n'Net Based Business Opportunities: Are Some Flop-portunities?\nhttp://www.ftc.gov/bcp/conline/pubs/online/netbizop.htm\n"The Bottom Line on Multilevel Marketing Plans" http://www.ftc.gov/bcp/conline/pubs/alerts/pyrdalrt.htm\nThe Federal Trade Commission (FTC) consumer alert entitled “Take This Scheme and Stuff It: Avoiding Envelope-Stuffing Rip-Offs.” <http://www.ftc.gov/bcp/conline/pubs/alerts/stuffitalrt.htm>

Almost none of them are legitimate.  A few years back, I wanted to work at home for those assembling products or stuffing envelopes.  Well, I called the Better Business Bureau first to see what they think about it.\n\nThey told me that nearly all of them are bogus and phony.  Think about it, almost all of them require some kind of money up front to "get started."  Do you think you should have to actually pay somebody to give you a job?  I never have.\n\nAnd with those that have you assemble products at home, BBB told me that when you assemble them and send them in to get paid, they will pick them apart and tell you that there were "flaws" and that you didn't assemble them right and then you won't get paid anyway.\n\nSounds like a scam to me.  The only way to really be safe is to go to the company in person, and if they are very close to where you live.  Other than that, don't just walk away--RUN!!!

The only home mailing job that is not a scam is if you start it yourself as a business. It is called "direct mail service" and your clients may include private foundations sending thousands of letters to potential and current donors, authors who need help shipping their book orders, etc. Basically, you help these businesses by doing their mailings for them and stuffing the mail into the envelopes!\n\nHere is an excellent article that tells you "How to Legitimately Make Money Stuffing Envelopes" http://www.powerhomebiz.com/vol28/stuffing.htm

There are tons of ways of making money online if you're open to various options. The first thing you need to do is to protect yourself from scams. Sadly there are more scams out there than there are legit opportunities. So you need to know what to avoid so you can selec the right options for you. I would suggst the following reading: \n\nWork At Home Scams\nhttp://www.workathomenoscams.com/scams.html\n\nTips for Avoiding Work-at-Home Scams\nhttp://www.fraud.org/tips/internet/workathome.htm\n\nNow for what can be done online, you can get paid for reading emails, answering surveys, clicking on ads, participate in an affiliate program, online business, virtual assistant, medical transcription, data entry, etc.\n\nI personally do most of these things to maximize the amount of money I make. You don't need to pay for a list to find these things. Avoid paying for list. In this day in age, the informtion is found freely. There are some good resources such as the following:\n\nWahm.com:\nhttp://www.wahm.com/jobs.html\nhttp://www.wahm.com/forum/\n\nWAHA\nhttp://www.workathomeagent.com/\n\nWorkingSol\nhttp://www.workingsol.com/\n\nWorkAtHomeNoScams.com:\nwww.workathomenscams.com/workathome.html\n\nLiveOps\nhttp://www.liveops.com/\n\nCraigslist.com\nCheck their jobs section and then narrow your searh to telecommuting.\n\nSo there are things out there for you. The more technically skilled you are the better, because things like medical transcriptionist, web desiners, graphic designers are always in demand and have consistent work.

I don't know about any good work at home job. But, I can tell you what type of business you can start online without any money at front. There are a lot of online companies offering free Affiliate program, agent opportunities, or partnerships.\n\nWell the first thing you need to do is finding a good affiliate program and join it. Good affiliate programs are those that have no time limits for visitors to come back and make a purchase through your affiliate link, support affiliate phone sales, offer you free co-branding rights of their web site (a plus but not required), enough web marketing tools (banners, links, store fronts, articles with links, etc...), and offline marketing tools (flyers, sale scripts, postcard, and more)\n\nPick companies that sell only one kind of product or have one web site per product. This will make it easy for you to promote online or offline. Try to read articles, guides, or books about the services or products that you decide to promote. Look for what's hot on the market right now...\n\nSome of the products you can look for are:\nVoIP Services (make money per sale and on the monthly bill)\nSatellite TV (make money per sale minimum $50)\nBusiness E-books (make money per sale)\nBusiness Softwares (make money per sale)\n\nTry to learn as much as you can about internet marketing\n\nGood luck!\n\nYours Truly,\n\nLuis Galarza, Business and Telecommunication Consultant\nhttp://www.cogni360blog.com and http://luisgalarza.blogspot.com

I have tried a home assembly job. It only cost seven dollars to get started. They never seemed to send the right parts to assemble correctly and the instructions didn't fit the parts. Maybe it was a scam, I don't know.\nWhat I have here are some work at home jobs on the internet.\nFor people in America there are the following companies: www.alpineaccess.com Work from home answering the phone taking orders for J Crew Office Depot 800-Flowers or others. You will need high speed internet access, a phone, plus a quiet place to work. The company routes calls to your phone from their offices in Golden Colorado.\nOther work from home companies:\nwww.workingsol.com Working Solutions\nwww.workathomeagent.com West at Home\nwww.liveops.com/ Liveops teleservices\nwww.youdictate.com/ Cyber Secretary dictation\nIt seems safer to trade your hours for dollars for office type work instead of some other kind (manufacturing, distribution, etc).

Most people who work at home and are successful are doing one of two things - getting paid a commission on everyone they convince to join the program (also known as MLM or pyramid plans) OR they have their own business. Your own business is something you create yourself, not find on the internet. You create it based on your skills, your passions not on what someone else tells you is the GREATEST thing going.\n\nIf you are looking at one of the endless "opportunities" out there be careful - most are scams. Here are a few questions you should ask to help figure out if the one you are looking at is for real or not.\n\nLegitimate work-at-home program should tell you - in writing - what's involved in the program they are selling. Here are some questions you might ask:\n\n* What tasks will I have to perform? (Ask the program to list every step of the job.)\n* Will I be paid a salary or will my pay be based on commission?\n* Who will pay me?\n* When will I get my first paycheck?\n* What is the total cost of the work-at-home program, including supplies, equipment and membership fees?\n* What will I get for my money?

Are you asking if there are any true and honest home business opportunities over the internet and why are there so many scams out there?\n\nThere are many legitimate, honest opportunities online and offline. But there are even more scams and con artists on the internet and off the internet. \n\nYou must first do your due-diligence which means your research:\n-Collect as much information as possible about the opportunity before you sign up for anything.\n-Ask lots of questions until you have a clear understanding.\n-Do background checks to confirm legitmacy. \n-And never allow anyone to force you into participating because of their agressive sales tactics.\n-Follow your instincs. Only move forward with a business opportunity when you feel 100% comfortable.\n\nThe best thing to do if you want to earn money is start your own business on the internet. I can show you how. Contact me. If you want more info. \n\nGood luck!

Most of the home businesses that alledges to produce good income are just bunk.They are primarily jobs incolving selling stuff, or assembling things at home. None of these will earn you a descent wage.Forget about them, and try to find a real job locally.If it were as easy to make money at home as they claim, everyboby would be doing it, but they aren't.
