Overview
There have been many books written and systems developed for
profiting on eBay auctions. We've weeded through and selected four
of the best. While we think that $10,000/month profits is on the
high end, eBay represents a great entrepreneurial opportunity.
Best Suited For
Anyone who likes to spend time online and enjoys online auctions.
Even those who haven't tried eBay may find the thrill of selling for
profit online irresistible.
Considerations
Like other online job opportunities, making money in online auctions
requires persistence and determination. Beyond that you'll need to
know the proven strategies and techniques that have made people a
lot of money on eBay in order to make the most money possible. The
eBooks reviewed below have been selected from the many written on
eBay. |

Overview
Pay-per-click (PPC) search engines have enabled many entrepreneurs
to profit handsomely, particularly in the last year. Of the PPC
search engines, Google is the best of the bunch. The offerings
reviewed here represent three of the best available for profiting
from the Google direct marketing revolution.
Bottom Line
If you're new to direct online marketing, these offerings are very
useful. The challenge is getting started and each of the offerings
we review will help you to do just that. If you're experienced,
getting just one or two nuggets from any of these manuals will make
your small investment well worth it . While all are worth
obtaining, "Google Cash" stands out for the excellent real life
examples and strategies it provides.
Income Earning Potential
The sky's the limit if you market the right product the right way.
It is possible to make over $1,000 daily by advertising on
pay-per-click search engines and you don't even need a website.
Realistically you won't make this much, especially at the beginning,
but increasingly people do make a very nice income from it. |

SURVEYS
|
Overview
For a small fee, you gain access to a database of hundreds of
research companies who will pay you for your opinions. The upfront
fee can be recovered with as little as the first survey you take,
although you have to be persistent.
Best Suited For
This is an opportunity for stay-at-home parents, students,
entrepreneurs, retirees - anyone who needs a flexible source of
extra income and enjoys using the Internet. These online surveys
can typically be done no matter where in the world you live,
although most of them are in English.
Considerations
Online survey jobs do require effort and persistence as not all the
survey companies will select every individual to participate. It's
a numbers game - the more you complete, the more you can make. Many
people do paid online surveys for part time extra income, while some
others do it full time.
Realistic Income Earning Potential
As much as $99 but more typically $5-$50 per survey depending on the
company, the individual, and each type of survey or focus group.
Increasingly some companies are offering prizes or points toward
prizes instead of cash for online surveys. |

SHOPPING
|
Overview
Name brand stores and restaurants actually pay for people to shop and
eat at their establishments as a form of market research. It helps them
improve their products and services. Meanwhile it puts money in the
paid shoppers pockets! |
|
Best Suited For
If you like to shop and eat out, these jobs are for you. As with Paid
Online Surveys, you can do as much or as little as you want depending on
the opportunities available and your schedule.
Considerations
You'll need to budget time in your schedule to get to and from the store
or mall. Many people overlap this with personal shopping so it works
out well. These are typically for the US and Canada only, although we
are seeking out shopping job opportunities in other countries.
Income Earning Potential
$10-$40/hour depending on the assignment, plus extras like free meals,
free movies and prizes.
