What Is A Legitimate Work From Home Job?

I guess this term can be confusing to most people because when we here the word "job" it conjures up the old "9-5".

I have found there are millions of people searching for a Legitimate Work From Home Job but they fail to recognize one when it is presented to them. Why is it people seem to think just about anything they see that says "Make money online working from home." they automatically associate it with some sort of scam.

There reason is there are so many scams out there it's getting more and more difficult to identify the real legitimate work from home jobs from the cons that take peoples money and provide useless information in return.

Here's the problem.

In a nutshell it is advertising. People seem assume that money making programs such as
The Rich Jerk and Ultimate Wealth Package are simply programs that teach people how to resell these packages. The reality is if they really dig into the information provided they will see this is not the case at all. These programs can be used as a legitimate work from home job or maybe it's best to call them home based business opportunities. They do not teach you to simply sell money making opportunities. They teach you how to set up a truly legitimate work from home job in whatever area of business interests you.

How in the world are you going to make a living teaching people how to make money when you just got a program to learn how to make money? You can't and people are going to see right through it. Guess what? There are THOUSANDS of ways you can use these programs to create a home based business and none of them have to be "selling" people on "getting rich quick"

We've all seen the ads:

Data Entry Jobs
Make Thousands A Week Placing Ads For Companies
All You have To Do Is Write Ads And Companies Pay You.

Well guess what? No, no, no. It does not work that way at all. While in it's most basic interpretation I guess it's true but it is a completely misleading ad and sets people up for failure right from the start. When someone answers an ad like this they assume "Hey, I can type little ads all day long and I'll be rich."

It's a hook to make a few quick bucks on the desire people have to get rich by doing very little work. NO ONE gets rich by doing a little work. While you can set up a legitimate work from home job that will pay you continual residual income on what they call "auto-pilot", it will require some hard work on the front end to get things going.

When people see a ad for something like "Blogging To The Bank" do they think if they buy the program all they are going to learn is how to make a blog to sell Blogging To The Bank?

Maybe it's because I have an understanding about affiliate marketing that I find that thought process to be flawed. Maybe it's because I spent a ton of money on scam programs before I purchased The Rich Jerk & Ultimate Wealth Package and actually learned how to make money online.

Affiliate Marketers have done it to themselves. Thousand flooded into the business early on and took advantage with promises of everyone being the next online millionaire by just buying a program and the checks would start rolling in. Here's how it went....

"Buy this program I'm selling and it will teach you how to resell it and you'll get rich just like me!"

What got lost within the mad rush to sell programs is that some of these programs actually provide valuable information for those looking to start that legitimate work from home job. Affiliate Marketing online can be a "job" that involves marketing thousands of products.

If the information provided in The Rich Jerk & Ultimate Wealth Package could teach you how to make money selling Sirius Satellite Radio or work out equipment from Amazon.com would you still think they were BS programs? Well guess what? IT'S THE WHOLE POINT OF THESE PROGRAMS. It's not about scamming people, it's about learning effective methods of marketing and selling millions upon millions of products online where companies are more than happy to pay you a handsome commission.

So back to the original question......

A Legitimate Work From Home Job is anything you do to make a living working online. Do you work for someone? In a way yes and in a way no.

You control what you do, when you do it and for who you do it but ultimately your paycheck is coming from someone isn't it?
