New Years Tips For Business Building The New Year is the perfect time to set new goals that will help take your to the next level. Whether you’re just starting out or if you’ve been in for a decade, you can always improve on what you’re doing. At CWAHM, we work together to help one another grow our businesses. Every day I receive emails from moms sharing tips that they’ve used to find success in business.
Bridget Grant – GoGreenGoCleen.com
“Make a work schedule and stick to it!
Flexibility is one of the best "perks" when working from home. It's very easy to let certain tasks slide, especially if your child is crying or needs you.
Make a schedule each day/week IN ADVANCE of your working hours. If you have an appointment, schedule it into your working day. Treat your home like a regular job; show up when you're scheduled to and if you miss work, make it up.
Treating your home as a regular job versus a hobby will yield much better results.”
Louise Uithoven - Handpicked 4 U (http://stores.ebay.com/Handpicked4U?refid=store)
“Customer service is key for my business. A happy customer – is hopefully – a repeat customer! I ship when I say I will and package my items so they arrive in the same condition they left my house - I think it is an important way to show how much I value them (my customer). I answer emails promptly, and offer solutions when there is a problem – if we can work something out it benefits both of us. For multiple items purchased I offer shipping discounts or combined shipping to help them save some money. I love what I do and I want to pass that passion on to my customers.”
Nicole - Herbalife Independent Distributor (http://www.herbal-nutrition.net/all-wayshealth)
“You should definitely join some type of organization. That could be your local chamber or some kind of local group that interests you ( reading group, fitness group, walking group, singles group, and the list goes on....). You can also join online. There is the DSWA ( direct selling women's alliance ) if you are in a direct selling company.
You can also get involved with online networking groups. I did not do this in the beginning of my business, however, I have started now and it is a lot of fun to meet other people in home based businesses. There are online vendor parties.....just type those
words into your search engine and it will bring up the sites that offer this.
I just recently purchased a card caddie ( this is place to keep your cards on the outside of your car without getting damaged by rain etc...). If you type in your search engine: card caddie, it will bring you to the "official site" and I have found that you will get a better deal finding them on ebay.”
Kim Hudson - kimhudson.myphotomax.com
“One great way to increase is give away something for free, if possible. If you are involved in a party plan business, have guests earn raffle tickets for bringing a friend, or ordering a certain dollar amount; then give a free gift for the raffle winner. Or just give a free gift for bringing a friend! Give coupons for future orders. Give anything you can think of! My company offers free photo prints for opening a free account, which has really helped increase customers! Plus, it just makes you feel good to give something of value to someone!”
Yvette Mason - www.beyondthecandle.com
“Be excited about the product or services you are marketing and don't be afraid to share that excitement with others. When you believe in what you're selling, it shines through! For example, just today I had gone to the bank to make a deposit. The cashier commented on how good my checks smelled! That was the perfect opportunity for me to share one of my cards with a scent sample attached. As I drove away from the drive thru, I could see her enjoying the scent I had just given her! I had seized the opportunity to share my excitement about my product!”
Working together and learning from one another is a tremendous benefit of being a work from home mom. Being a part of an online community or a local networking group can help you to think outside of your usual methods and develop unique ways of building your business. Find the time to connect with other work-at-home moms and work together to achieve success.

Performance Marketing Alliance (PMA) Q&A at Affiliate Summit East 2008 I walked out the Performance Marketing Alliance (PMA) Q&A session at Affiliate Summit East 2008 in Boston, MA just a few hours ago, full of frustration and a bit of anger. I had to calm myself down first before I started writing this post. The subject is important and emotional for most of us, but emotions will not solve our problems and only make it harder to come to agreements and finding solutions that benefit every single one of us.
PMA and the New York State Law Issue
I realized that

Yes, the show really does start two days before the keynote kicks off. Actually, it might be three days. I arrived early Saturday morning and I missed a few unofficial gatherings on Friday. Note to self: arrive in Vegas extra early for ASW ‘09.
I can’t really talk about the show because it has not really started. To

NETexponent created and distributed a 23-question survey designed to collect information about affiliate?s wants, needs, and experiences in the affiliate marketing space. We received over 500 responses from a diverse mix of affiliates across different affiliate networks such as CJ, Performics, LinkShare, ShareASale, and others. The questions these affiliates answered are listed below. Special thanks to all of t

I agree with Jeff on many points, including the lack of innovation in the industry during the past five years. Why was there not much innovation you might ask yourself? In my opinion networks and also many advertisers did shift their focus and priority towards affiliate publishers who are not traditional affiliates in the first place. Those publishers use the affiliate or CPA tracking platform

The Affiliates of New York are proof of what small groups can accomplish. In the face of what has come to be known as the Amazon Tax, a rather short sighted law instituted by New York state, and the combined lack of guidance from many of the networks and merchants in the industry, this group has put together an excellent set of recommendations.
These recommendations provi

Before you get lost in the conference chaos and inevitable Boston pub crawls, I thought I should give my top five picks for sessions you can?t afford to miss:
1) NY Tax Laws ? Issues and Solutions
The so called Amazon Tax has set the industry abuzz since it ambushed everyone in May. Since then several legal challenges have been launched against the law with Amazon itself weighing in. On a mor

The class action filed against ValueClick subsidiaries CJ.com and BeFree has taken a new turn with ValueClick proposing a $1,000,000 settlement fund to be distributed to members of the class action suit.
The lawsuit was originally filed against CJ after the legal team for the class action determined that CJ allowed software publishers to highjack commissions due to other publishers using methods including downloadable toolbars, purchase helpers and other hidden software.

Let?s put out a coupon for that: the more shadow the higher the discount!? With such a mindset typical in most marketing departments, I am very surprised that the Olympics are starting next week and there has been barely a flutter of notice in the affiliate industry.
Now I realize association with China is still a risky proposition for American retailers. Not that the Internat
