A Note from Mal Keenan
===================================

Greetings friends,
As always a warm welcome to those of you who have joined us since our last issue of HBT Newsletter.

Why is it when people come online and start a home business that they expect something completely different than if they were embarking in a similar offline endeavour? Is it because of the constant hype and promises of quick riches which is seen at every turn of the webpage?

I don't personally know for sure but I see it daily in downline members who give up because they have not made it one or two months after starting, sometimes one or two weeks.

Lets get real, if you are thinking of starting an online home business then give yourself at least one or two years to see a significant increase in income. Anything less than that is nothing but a pipedream except for the very fortunate.

Or, you could always buy a lottery ticket;-)

Til next time

Your friend in success

FEATURE Article - How To Write Ads That Get Results
===================================

By Tina Barraclough

You've got approximately 0.5 seconds to grab someone's attention with a classified ad.  That is not much time for you to convince someone with your ad (s). You can dramatically increase your results with your ad (s) if you know how to write an ad to get results. Knowing how to write an ad that not only grabs the readers attention, but convinces them is the key to any ad.

 Below I have listed some tips for you to follow when writing an ad, that can increase your results for your ad. Try some or all of them and see what works for your ad (s).

(1) Look at other people's ads for some ideas. When looking at these ads think about what caught your attention as well as what didn't. By doing this, you will see what kind of ad
that you need to write that will bring you results.

 (2) Think about who you want to target with your ad. For example, let's say your ad is promoting a home business opportunity, then you obviously would only want to target people who are looking for such opportunities. Your ad
would not be effective for someone who is not interested in
a home business opportunity.

 (3) The headline to your ad is THE most important part of
the ad. The headline should be no longer than 5 to 7 words. Use "Action" verbs that catch their attention or ask a
question to catch their attention. For example, " Would you like to quit your job?" Type the headline in all caps or cap the letter of every word to get the readers attention.

 (4) I have noticed that if you have something "Free" to
offer the reader, this usually will catch their attention right away. For example, maybe you could offer them a free e-book about home businesses, etc.

 (5) Keep your ads brief. Do not give the reader to much information. Most people will not read ads that are long and full of hype. When writing your ad, what you want to do
is only use a few descriptive words to simply state what you are selling or offering, but still pique their curiosity.

 (6) Do not use all caps in your ad (s). When you use all caps it makes the ad hard to read, and is also considered as yelling. Most people will consider this as being rude and will not look at what you are offering.

 (7) Always make sure you end your ad (s) by telling the reader exactly how to respond to your ad (s). Keep it simple and easy, make sure you have included your e-mail address and website address if you have one.

 (8) Always proof read your ad (s) before you place them anywhere. Also, make sure your web and e-mail addresses are correct and in working order. Your ad (s) will not be worth
anything if it has the wrong contact information. This is one of the main reasons why an ad may have poor responses.

 (9) Revise and test your ad (s) over and over again until you write an ad that works for you. You should only test one revised ad at a time, this way you will know which one of your ads is working and where.

 If you would like to learn more about ad writing, I have listed some places where you can find tutorials on ad writing.

SUCCESS ARTICLE - The Second Step To Overcoming The Barrier To Success
===================================

By Scott Aughtmon

Fear is THE major barrier to success. A lot of people are being held back from succeeding online, because they're afraid!

They're afraid of FAILURE, afraid of REJECTION, and afraid of the UNKNOWN!

Intense desire is the enemy of fear.

The first way to conquer fear is by having a strong desire to do what you're afraid of. If you want to overcome the major barrier to success (fear) then your first step is that you've got to get MORE FED UP than AFRAID!

*You've got to have strong desire to succeed online if you are going to conquer THE major barrier to success!

YOU'VE GOT TO WANT TO SUCCEED ONLINE MORE THAN YOU'RE AFRAID!

Are you ready for the SECOND STEP to overcoming the barrier to success?

*You've got in believe what you're doing so much that you're more afraid NOT to do it, then to do it!

You've got to believe that what you're wanting to do is worth doing and that it will accomplish what you want!

In the book, "The Power Of Focus" by Jack Canfield, Mark Victor Hansen, and Les Hewitt, they say, "To overcome fear you must have faith in the outcome."

If you want a good example of how belief helped someone to succeed, then I have a great story for you...

The Invention Of Vaseline

It the late 19th century there was a young chemist named Robert Chesebrough who sold kerosene.

He got his kerosene from the oil of sperm whales, but by 1859 he was put out of business.

In 1859, Robert Chesebrough took off for a Pennsyslvania oil field to "strike it rich." What he came back with made him rich beyond his wildest dreams.

But he didn't become rich from oil!

Oil field workers had told him about this "sticky stuff" that stuck to the drilling rigs. The riggers hated this stuff - it caused the drilling rigs to seize up.

For all the problems this substance caused, the riggers found one small use - when rubbed on a cut or bruise it helped it to heal faster.

He bottled the stuff up and dragged it back to his Brooklyn laboratory.

He began a search to duplicate the petroleum-based lubricant, and by trial and error, followed he was able to extract the key ingredient - the translucent material we now know as petroleum jelly.

But it had to be tested, and tested it was.

He needed a guinea pig to test it out on. But who could he use?

Chesebrough cut his OWN hands and arms, burned himself with flames and acids and each time he would then covered them with his new gel.

ALL the self-inflicted wounds responded to his petroleum jelly and were healed!

Satisfied that his new grease had healing properties, he took to the road with his own medicine show, but first he named his gel.

Using the German word for water (wasser) and the Greek word for oil (elaion) he came up with "Vaseline."

He took it out on the road and would demonstrate it by cutting or burning himself and then applying his vasleine. He also showed his audience the healed scars from past experiments.

Amazingly this worked.

Soon he was selling a jar a minute, and when these ran out people begged their druggists to order more from Chesebrough. It was used for everything: chest colds, chapped hands, nasal congestion, and even to remove stains from furniture.

By the turn of the twenty century it had penetrated the American market and was entering Europe, and Chesebrough had become a very rich man!

Although its miracle properties were eventually debunked, Chesebrough himself was always a true believer.

He lived to age 96, revealing shortly before he died the secret to his longevity: *Every day of his life he ate a spoonful of vaseline!

(* Not recommended! DON'T TRY THIS AT HOME! :)

Cheesbrough succeeded because he believed so much in his product/idea that he refused to give up!

Do YOU want to succeed? Do you want to overcome fear -- the major barrier to success? If you do, then you've got to believe in your product or idea so much that you let nothing stop you!

"Put one foot in front of the other." Start taking your two steps towards success today!

Step 1: Get MORE FED UP than AFRAID and take action towards your goals!

Step 2: Believe in what you're doing so much that you're MORE afraid NOT to do it, then to DO it!
