Has anyone tried a home based business that really works, so may offers come to me email but I feel that most are just scams and if I pay my money I really wonder if any works, can some give the experience

Here's one I signed up for called Workathomeagents.com. All you do is take phone orders. You log into a data base from your home phone and computer and calls are routed to you. Before you get started, there is on-line training that you must pass in order to get certified to take the calls. You also have to pass a background investigation. You don't have to pay out any money to them. All you need is a computer with Internet Explorer, a dedicated phone line, and a headset for taking the calls. It's been pretty interesting so far. You're paid anywhere from .17 - .25 p/minute talk time or $8 - $10 p/hour. You're paid weekly. I know this isn't alot of money but at least it's something to help out. You sign up for your own hours but you have to have at least 80 minutes of talk time (approx 2hrs per day) to remain an active contractor. There is also another one similar to this one called liveops.com. Check them out and let me know what you think.

Also a homebase can be like doing article writing if you can write or find some thing to work on for computers...I do writings and have learned alot by just reading and asking questions on how to do thing on the internet..Now I am up to submitting to directories sites that people have. I did a search for freelancers...and found a couple of good sites that was free to sign up look for people who wanted small articles about things I could write about and with in a couple of days was makeing money...I am still growing my buiness but almost come to the point I will be able to stay home. The internet has so much information that a person can learn anything they want with out going to school. Right now I have a freind that is teaching me how to make websites. So this is something else that is free and just have to do the work if you know how to...or maybe can learn and try ...I love it on the puter for work and can have my free time when I need it .... Good luck

I have been working on internet to find whether it is really possible to have homebased business. Till today I havenot seen any success. Either it takes a long time to do a small money or most of them are spams.

classicaljazz is right, any business that you operate requires work, regardless of it being homebased, online, or whatever. there are alot of opportunities available but you have to be wary of scams wherever you go... i have tried many different opportunities, too, and have done well in some and not so well in others it highly depends on your interest in the business and what drives you to make you succeed at it. review this link: http://www.stuffafriend.biz/members/xtnlabutay it's free to join and a truly fun business to work!

I am in a home based business that really works if you would like to check it out http://jeanettesmith.myarbonne.com Personally I think that most of the well known ones work if you work it. I have done several home based businesses and been successful at most. I switched as the times changed. But this one is by far the easiest and I am too busy with my husband's business and homeschooling my children to do something time consuming!
