I’ll admit it - I primarily hang around with other work-at-home moms that I’ve met online. They understand me. They share info, know my businesses, and often bail me out when I’m learning something new. Recently I joined a forum that has nothing to do with working at home, but it does have to do with finances. I forget that there are still thousands of people out there that have no idea how to make money online.
Living within your means is not a new concept. There are budget living sites everywhere, and now with the economic distress, you can’t pick up a newspaper or a magazine without tips to save money on something.
But I’m weird.
I think earning money is easier than clipping a ten-cent coupon. Or driving to another town to get my favorite coffee on sale. If I evaluate my time…it’s better spent finding ways to earn money than save money. I guarantee I can come up with ten dollars in income faster than I can save $5.00 on my grocery bill.
Next challenge - can I do both?

Since you already have a business and a website, I recommend trying the free peek at Mom Masterminds. Although it’s a paid membership group, the resources and support are well worth the price (see link on this page). There are tons of free resources out there, but this one will allow you to chat in a more private environment and our sales have grown exponentially.
You need to learn everything possible about getting traffic to your website. Google adwords can work, but can suck up your money really quickly so be careful and test with small budget amounts. You can sell on eBay, put your video or teaser up on YouTube, answer related questions on Yahoo answers, and visit forums where people are learning to do the types of things your DIY video does. It can be overwhelming, so make sure you look at it like an adventure.
One step at a time. Search for “free traffic” ideas and you can be reading and learning all day long.
Best of luck!
