2nd way investing

Here is a way to invest $100 in a small business that you can start fresh today:-Mail Order or more appropriately - direct marketing. Although it is an old business idea, you have to consider that this is proof of a good business. Businesses that pass the tests of time are a sure bet.

So what mail order business should you start? If you want to make the choice rather easy, you can pick one of the top selling mail order businesses as rated by the National Mail Order Association. They are, recorded music, computer related products, financial services, books, gifts and general merchandise. I am sure that you can find something of interest with one of those markets.

With a good mail order catalog, you will have your customers excited to see what they can buy that fits their needs and desires. Have you ever experienced this? The mail comes, you pull out the catalog or magazine that interests you, drop the bills in a stack and head to the couch or chair to browse? Even with the internet being a part of everyone's life, people still like to look through catalogs and look at pictures of products that they can buy.

This is an incredibly lucrative business. The good thing is that investments to get started are small and the skill required to operate and run a mail order business are very few. To keep risks low while you learn the business you can still hold down a job that provides income for the bills, this is a great business model to work on in your spare time. If you are selling a service, you do not have to worry about inventory, but you will need a skill to sell. If you are selling a product, you will need inventory, but you can avoid having to house products if you work with a drop-shipper or a fulfillment company.

If you need money now, like I mean in the next hour, try what I did. I am making more money now than in my old business and you can too, read about Martin Thomas in the link below. When I joined I was skeptical for just ten seconds before I realized what this was. I was smiling from ear to ear and you will too.
