below for more life-changing content number one online arbitrage
buying and selling goods is at the core of many of the companies we interact
with on a normal basis take walmart for example every time you
go into the store and buy a bunch of bananas or a new coffee maker you are in
effect buying a product that they have sourced at a lower price than they are
selling it for this model has served them and many other companies well over
the years and the great part about buying and selling goods is that you can
do it from the convenience of your home this is where online arbitrage comes
into play the term arbitrage simply means to buy something from one place
and sell it in another and the internet has opened up a world of possibilities
when it comes to sourcing and selling products whereas there is retail
arbitrage where you go into a store and assess if products on the shelves could
be sold for more money elsewhere this same model can be done entirely online
and from the comfort of your home for instance if you wanted you could
research items that sell on amazon and if you find a good deal on a product
then you can assess its going rate on other online marketplaces like ebay and
then buy it and flip it for a profit this sometimes laborious process becomes
rather efficient once you pick a niche of items that you routinely buy and sell
for instance maybe you're into smartphones after researching phones for
a few weeks you should have a good understanding of the going prices of all
current model phones making it easier to spot a deal that can earn you a profit
simply identify a winner post the product on an alternate marketplace at a
marked up price and send the product to your end customer while you bask in the
rewards of your hard work number two offering technical support do
you like chatting with people do you have above average technical or
troubleshooting skills or the willingness to learn if so you can make
a good technical support representative while many customer service and
technical support reps still work in centralized call centers at home workers
have plenty of opportunities now you can work at home as a technical support rep
for yourself or for a company many businesses will contract out freelance
tech support jobs that you can take on as a short-term gig or on an ongoing
basis depending what your income needs are however if being a solopreneur isn't
for you then there are some great companies that offer rewarding roles in
this area one of the biggest and best known at-home tech support employers is
apple whose at-home advisor program employs thousands of people at
competitive experience-based salaries at home
advisors are part or full-time employees not independent contractors so there's a
measure of security here that's often missing from work at home gigs the
benefits package including apple stock is pretty nice too and every at-home
advisor gets a free imac while there are great opportunities in the world of tech
support there are a few things you should be aware of before committing to
this line of work with the first being scams a lot of at-home voice work is
legitimate but there are plenty of scam artists too don't invest any money up
front without thoroughly checking your prospective employer's credentials
second tech support requires service 24 7 which means that you can easily get
sucked into working long hours on the weekend and on holidays
finally tech support jobs may be limited in their earning potential entry level
tech support work usually pays between 10 and 20 dollars per hour though blue
chip employers like apple can afford higher wages if you'd like to do this
work long term look for gigs that offer opportunities for advancement into the
ranks of lower and middle management preferably without an attendant shift to
on-site employment number three virtual assistant if you
want to work in a growing field that offers the ability to work from home
then you should think about being a professional virtual assistant a virtual
assistant or va for short is precisely what it seems like it's an assistant
that works virtually from home the task of a virtual assistant can fluctuate
contingent upon who they're working for yet typically virtual assistants help
deal with some part of the administrative functions for a business
owner or company for instance a virtual assistant may oversee email accounts
conduct research plan for a meeting help and data entry and many more tons of
entrepreneurs already employ the services of virtual assistants with
their administrative tasks and with time being more scarce every single day this
means that the virtual assistant role isn't becoming obsolete anytime soon
what's more as individual business people may require help only a couple
hours a week you can choose exactly how much time you need to commit to each
year virtual assistant tasks and in case you were wondering va's make anywhere
from twenty to fifty dollars per hour and you only need a computer internet
and a mobile phone to get started number four remote consulting do you
have a skill that others don't that you could offer from home remote consulting
is a great option for those who are experienced in any field where there is
customer demand and it can be a job you can do in addition to your 9 to 5 job or
it can be something you do full time in fact many professionals start their
career by working at a company and as they hone their craft they then look for
ways to gain autonomy over their work and one option is consulting now unlike
when you work for a company one skill you must possess as a remote consultant
is the ability to sell yourself when you're first starting out clients
probably won't come to you and if you do it right you will launch your consulting
business with the connections you bring forward from your working career however
it is always good to be promoting and filling the sales funnel with future
work some practices you can use to get more clients include updating your
linkedin profile setting up a website and attending networking events in your
city so that you can get your name out there and entice others to pay for your
services number five flip digital assets we've
already talked about flipping physical products through online arbitrage
however there is a lot of money to be made flipping digital assets as well
digital assets can be anything from social media accounts to websites or
even domains this method of flipping works in the same way as when you flip
physical products you first do your research to identify undervalued assets
and then you acquire them when you know there is demand for that item for more
than what you've paid however with digital assets there is potential for
you to add value to the asset to further increase your profits for instance if
you were able to buy an undervalued instagram account grow its following and
then sell it you would definitely be able to turn a larger profit than if you
were to sell it without putting in the extra effort as long as you have a
computer an internet connection and an understanding of the value of intangible
assets you can make money without ever leaving your home number six rent out
your car if you aim to work from home then that
means not having to commute to and from your place of work this translates into
plenty of time where your car sits in your driveway idle collecting dust
luckily with the explosion of the sharing economy you can rent it out to
travelers and people who don't own their own cars without getting behind the
wheel or even leaving your house absolute get around in turo allow you to
rent your car out for the short or even long term allowing you to capitalize on
times where you have no need for your car the best part is that this is a
rather passive way to earn income so it can easily be paired with the other
methods of making money from home i have just gone over allowing you to multiply
your earnings number seven freelance writing if you
love to write then why not turn that passion into profits freelance writers
are people who create written content independently they do not belong to or
work for any magazine newspaper tv station radio station or any other
organization just themselves these freelancers do not write for just one
client by the way they can write for as many clients as they can handle each
piece of writing exclusively belongs to the client that hired them for the
project as a freelance writer it is not uncommon to be earning 25 to 30 dollars
an hour after you've gained a bit of experience and feedback from your

money through your writing efforts you need to follow a few simple steps first

written anything that would be client worthy in fact this is the hardest part
