subject: 4 Home Based Business Christmas Gift Ideas [print this page] All I want for Christmas is a successful home based business. One way to help yourself in 2011 is to make a little investment in yourself right now.
For one thing do you really need all the Christmas gifts underneath a tree? Billions of dollars are spent on Christmas gifts every year that are fashionable, but quickly go out of style.
When you invest in your home based business as a Christmas present you are showing a commitment to make your business more successful next year. If you do it correctly these ideas are presents that can actually make you money as opposed to just costing you.
Here are 4 Christmas gifts that are perfect for the home based business entrepreneur.
1. Invest in offline marketing tools. Internet marketers continue to focus strictly online.
However many home-based businesses can benefit from off line marketing tools. For example, business cards are not very expensive and can be an excellent way to attract new prospects or customers to your business. You can even get 250 of them for free at VistaPrint.com
Buy a gift certificate to a local printing business. Use this to purchase flyers, stickers, postcards, or anything else you can to get your company name out where the public can find it.
2. Join 1 good membership site. Any home business owners could use training on a regular basis.
There are membership sites such as the Affiliate Power Group that offer personal coaching for little more than a dollar a day. The blog blueprint has an excellent membership for people who want to build a home business doing auto blogging.
There are many excellent membership sites available on the Internet today that offer training and support to help you become more successful with your own business.
3. Buy a self improvement book. Sometimes you need to focus on yourself before your business can become successful.
Some of the old classics continue to hold up well today. If you haven't read these books you should consider purchasing one of them.
- Think and Grow Rich by Napoleon Hill
- How To Win Friends and Influence People by Dale Carnegie
- The 7 Habits of Highly Effective People by Stephen R. Covey
- Time Power: A Proven System for Getting More Done in Less Time Than You Ever Thought Possible by Brian Tracy
These are all excellent choices!
4. Buy an existing blog. Go to Flippa.com and take a look around.
You can pick up entry level blogs for a few dollars. These are already built for you and ready to promote online. High end blogs can go for several thousand dollars depending on how much monthly revenue they are currently bringing in.
These are 4 home based business Christmas gift ideas that might be just what your business needs to become more successful in the coming year!
