"A man can't retire his experience. He must use it." Bernard M. Baruch
This retirement idea begins with the assgnment that now is the time to focus on building a creative lifework that, for those yet to retire, will provide a bridge into retirement without any detours or delays. For those already retired you will be rejuvenated with a boost of enthusiasm and purpose. For both groups - extra income. I found the best way to complete that assignment is to turn your past into a future - what you know can be a profitable retirement idea. "Information is the oxygen of the modern age." Ronald Reagan
This retirement idea allows you to Sell your knowledge.
Sell your services.
Sell what interests you – what motivates you.
Whether you’re years away from retirement or already retired, your life experiences and the library of knowledge you have acquired over the years offers you a creative, positive, productive and profitable home based business opportunity. Every day, tens of millions of people around the world search the internet for information, looking for solutions – information and solutions you may be able to offer them – information they will pay you for.
Obviously people want to know how to make money but they also look for advice on how to complete something they’re working on, a special travel experience, or as it was with me not long ago, information that can change their lives.
I want to take you to a few retirement idea sites I've surveyed to give you some background on just a few of the tens of thousands of ordinary folks who have successfully ventured into the world of Ecommerce. As you will see by clicking on this link, these new acquaintances of mine, researched an
retirement idea that led to a PPP home based business
by providing information or services on what they know and love.
I confess to being computer and internet illiterate. A 16 year old neighbour patiently brings my computer back to life after it crashes from the mere weight of too many mistakes on my part.
I mention this for the benefit of those of you, who, like me, do not have the time or talent to learn all the techie aspects of producing a money making information web site, Ebook or video.
Your first step is to decide what information or service you want to provide. Again, follow the path I traveled by first taking the time to study all the possibilities.
For me, the process of building a home based business opportunity started with one of Dr. Evoy’s E-commerce sites from SiteBuildIt. As I studied the information it was as if I was participating in group “brainstorming session”. It opened up doors that led me into areas of interest I would have never thought of on my own. This is a
proven home based business opportunity offering a number of retirement ideas
for creating, publishing and marketing your info product yourself – it also shows you how to monetize your information product. After studying this site crammed with idea starters plus valuable information on how to succeed on the internet, I had a library of retirement ideas for home based business opportunities. I’m still researching retirement ideas so I can build a series of sites plus publish a few Ebooks and, down the line, CD's and DVD's. This will give me a variety of creative and profitable home based business outlets - all these creative possibilities for a computer clueless retiree.
IMPORTANT NOTE: I urge you to print the
"Make Your Knowledge Sell" manual
after downloading and read it several times. I found each session opened a creative floodgate of retirement ideas and strategies. Simply put, “Make Your Knowledge Sell” is a must first start for any home based business opportunity. Even though this text book led me to my very first web site, it also started me working on my first Ebook publication.
But, even though you have a presence on the web, the thousands who may want your information don’t know that – they aren’t looking for you - they’re looking for information, so you have to learn how to guide them to your location. That means learning how to work the search engines.
Fortunately, for people like me who are not internet-marketing savvy, this is not as intimidating as it sounds, IF you just follow the step-by-step roadmap.
WORD OF CAUTION
Remember the three biggest lies joke;
1: “The check is in the mail.”
2: “Of course I’ll respect you in the morning.”
3: “I’m from the government, and I’m here to help you.”
I would like to add a fourth – “You can make $250,000 a week on the internet with little effort.”
During my retirement idea research, I was swamped with Emails and newsletters suggesting a home based business opportunity and making all kinds of ridiculous promises obviously aimed at the desperate and gullible.
IMPORTANT NOTE
This brings me to one of the most important lessons I learned while on this continuing, creative adventure to find the right retirement idea. There is no such thing as a “get rich quick” retirement idea. Some of us learned the hard way. From my research notes, here's an example of how one woman is now building a successul home based business
after being misled by those who promised much but provided little
I want to stress the retirement idea outlined here takes time, research, study, patience and effort — but that’s the heart of the overall strategy — to make your life more interesting the longer it lasts.
I can promise you, as the creative process takes hold, excitement builds, time flies and ideas flow. My retirement life now has purpose - the extra income is icing on the cake.
For those of you who already have a website and who are computer and internet marketing savvy, this same script will speed you on your way and allow you to build bigger and better faster, leaving you more time to spend researching, creating and earning.
This is an all-in-one roadmap offering a creative
home based business.
– motivation is the only additional ingredient required.
The time for action is now. It's never too late to do something."
Carl Sandburg
