Earn extra money!
In the previous articles, we have discussed debt, credit repairand establishing good credit. We talked about paying off allyour old bills. That's great if you can afford to do that. Ifyou can't or just need to earn more money, perhaps this articlecan help. I will be discussing ways to earn money. Some of themI have used, some of them I am just aware off. All of them arelow cost to start up. All of them can be done in your sparetime. 1) Ameriplan - As I have health problems, I have to spend a goodbit on prescriptions. As I don't currently have insurance, Ilooked for a way to reduce my cost. I found it with Ameriplan. Iwas so impressed with the plan that I (along with my fiancée)became a broker. Ameriplan offers discounts on dental,prescriptions, vision and chiropractic services. I researched iton the internet before signing up. I found several instances ofpeople reporting that they saved hundreds of dollars on theseservices. The plan is $11.95 per month and $19.95 for a wholefamily. If you become a broker you can earn commission forenrolling people in these plans and you also get a residual foreach month they keep the plan. As most people save a lot ofmoney with this plan, cancellations are very low. The links areat the bottom of this page or visit this site 2) SMC Specialty Merchandise Corp. This company has been aroundfor over 50 years. You sign up with them. The cost is about$300. You can then buy from their line of over 3000 products.You can get catalogs to show to friends, family, potentialcustomers. If something cost $25.00 in the catalog your costwill be around $8.00. They will also drop ship under your name.You can sale with the catalogs, on the internet ( though thereare many people selling these products on the net). You can alsopurchase a supply of products if your finances permit to take toflea markets. Again I have tried this out. The items didn't doto well on the net due to so much competition. However, approx60% of people I showed the catalog to actually placed an order.These items also sell ok at flea markets. 3) Tiger Direct- This company sells computers and relateditems. Their cost is usually below what you get a CompUSA orBestBuy. You can purchase items and resell. You can also savemoney on your own purchases. If you have a resellers certificateyou can get even better deals or savings on shipping. 4) Another part time business that you can do is a food/grocerydelivery service. People call you and place an order and you gopick it up and deliver and charge a fee for that service. Itrequires very little to start this service. You may want tocheck with your auto insurance about using your car forbusiness. You can either use your home phone or have a 2nd lineput in for this business. Send letters to restaurants offeringways for them to increase their business. You send them ordersand they give you a discount on those orders. This will maximizeyour profit and allow you to keep your delivery charge lowenough that customers will want your service. Pizza and Chineseplaces offer delivery. You are offering the public analternative to pizza or Chinese. Hotels/motels are a good placeto leave flyers. 5) Do you have a skill or trade that you can teach?. Manycommunities have night time education programs in the localschools. Normally you don't need a degree to teach these. Youjust need to be proficient in the subject.
