Well my trip yesterday went very well and thankfully, since I was flying, uneventful.   I flew to Kansas City to pick up my 5 year old granddaughter.  We are having so much fun.  Did I mention I absolutely love having an online business?

Well, while I was flying I was working on my blog.  I came back with so many ideas.   Over the next several weeks I’ll be sharing them with you right here.

Since Iwas up for 20 hours yesterday, with 4 hours of sleep, this is going to be a very short entry.

Stop back tomarrow for a regular post.

I want to start out today by telling you about a work from home course that tells you exactly how to get your home office and yourself organized for optimum productivity.  Let me tellyou, you are seriously going to love this.

Did you ever wish that  you could be a fly on the wall of one of the big kahuna gurus’ to see how they have their office set up?  Watch them set up their schedule and then tell you how this whole “Work at Home” thing goes down?

Well Jimmy D. Brown, one of the “Serious Kahunas”, and my favorite mentor, has done just that with his Homepreneur Habits course.  It even has a picture of him working at his desk in his PJ’s.

I learned so much from this course that I asked Jimmy if I could put an excerpt from it on my blog.  He said yes, so check it out :

Hello, this is Jimmy D. Brown, author of the SR Zone™ Reports.

One of the questions that I get a lot from members of List And Traffic (as well as from my other customers and even subscribers) is this -

What does your home office look like?

There is a lot of interest in learning about the equipment I use, the setup of my office, my daily routine, etc. So, I’ve decided to create this report that I’m entitling, “Homepreneur Habits: How To Run A Successful Home Business”.

My goal for this series is to teach you some basic setup and operations for establishing and maintaining your own home business office, which, ultimately, will translate into more efficiency, productivity and … profitability!

Whether you are a complete beginner or a seasoned pro, I think some of the insights that I’ll be giving you into how my own office and business is organized and operated will be beneficial to you in your own pursuits.

And, YES, just so you know, I really do work in my pajamas! In fact, as I’m writing this article I’m sitting here in my Ralph Lauren Polo pajamas and a white t-shirt. My wife snapped this picture just a couple of minutes ago…

Continue on at your own risk.

No lifeguards on duty.

Turn back, turn back, turn back.

Okay, you were warned…

You really can operate your own business in your pajamas. Or anything else for that matter. But, please, no file-sharing. I’ll take you at your word when you tell me you work in the same pair of holey underwear from college just to remind you of where you came from.

Okay, back to the point. I’ve got this series divided into three parts…

Homepreneur Habits:  How To Run A Successful Home Business

Lesson #1: The PRINCIPLES Of A Successful Homepreneur

Lesson #2: The PARAPHERNALIA Of A Successful Homepreneur

Lesson #3: The PRACTICES Of A Successful Homepreneur

In our first lesson we’ll look at some guidelines or “rules” that I go by in organizing and operating my home office. Lesson two will cover specific equipment that I use in my daily operations. And in lesson three I’ll share how to organize your schedule for increased productivity and results.

I’ll be sharing lots of visuals as you’ll be given an “all access” tour of my own home office.

All of this begins in our next lesson.

If you’d like to read the whole 64 page report, just go to Homepreneur Habits and get your copy while it’s still such a bargain.

With what I learned from this report, my productivity went up exponencially, and a lot of Jimmy’s other loyal customers say that this couse is their favorite yet.

Go take a look for yourself here

I have been trying to start an online business for about 5 years.  I started out with a MLM company.  This was my first attempt at making money online.  It was a very well known company and the products were good, but a bit pricey.  After 2 years of making calls, buying leads and not even breaking even, I quit that company.

I tried various other online money making “schemes” over the next couple of years, but most just left me with a bad taste in my mouth.   I bought alot of the “Guru’s” products.  You know the ones, just buy their product, do what they tell you and you’ll be rich overnight. 

The problem was I was a 48 year old grandmother who didn’t have a clue what HTML was or how to build a list, what an opt-in page was let alone put one on my page.  All the things they took for granted that you knew how to do, if you wanted to start an online business.

I always felt like I was missing something.  That they were leaving something out.  Or I was just too obtuse to understand.  I actually started to think that I may as well give up, because I was never going to get the hang of this internet marketing thing, no matter how hard I tried.  Not without spending a fortune (that I did not have) on more of the next best thing.

Then I found Jimmy D. Brown.  He was like a breath of fresh air, a life line to a woman drowning in a sea of internet marketing bilge water.

The first product I bought from him was Homepreneur Habits.  From that 65 page report I learned the principles of a successful Homepreneur, the tools I would need to implement to become a successful entrepreneur that would get me out of my day JOB and not become another one of those people that is just another statistic of a wanna be internet marketer.

Homepreneur Habits laid the ground work for healthy home office strategies, but I needed more.  Now Jimmy D. Brown is known for over delivering what he promises.  I signed up for his newsletter, and I found myself receiving a plethora of free reports, articles, and newsletters.  All with information to help me make money online.

Go check out Homepreneur Habits here.  I promise you won’t be sorry.

I have been reading Nicole Dean’s blog now for several weeks.  Wow!  I am really learning a lot.  Nicole is doing a Rock Star Summer Tour.  She is guest blogging on 15 different blogs all summer long.

One of the blogs she will guest blogging on is Click Newz.  Click Newz is operated by Lynn Terry.  Nicole interviewed Lynn back in April.  The interview was very interesting.  So off I go to Click Newz to check it out. 

Lynn is a Super Affiliate, that means that she makes a darn good living online as an affiliate marketer.  Like Nicole, Lynn offers a lot of really good, useful information on her blog. 

I am learning so much from both of these women, but I feel like there is so much to learn that I will never learn it all.

More later.

After signing up for Jimmy D. Brown’s affiliate program, I met, (actually just spoke through emails) Nicole Dean.

Nicole is Jimmy’s affiliate manager, so she handles all of his affiliates and helps them to succeed, by pointing them in the direction of articles or emails that Jimmy has written for his affiliates to use.  But Nicole is much more than that.

Nicole is an affiliate marketer, but she is also a business woman.  She has many blogs and ebooks that she has written.  So as a result of Jimmy D. Brown, I have now come into contact with a woman I can learn from.  Someone who is doing it all, has a husband, children, and all that goes with that, but also is making a full time living online.  YIPEE!!  Someone like me, except for the online successful business.

So I started reading Nicole’s blog.  Nicole gives away a lot of really useful information, along with her ebooks that are for sale.  And she has an affiliate program also.  I cannot wait to see what I can learn about affiliate marketing from her.

More later.
