Online parties can be a successful and fun way to build your home business. These parties are similar to home parties except that you do not have to pay a small fortune for refreshments and snacks! ;-)

You can have your party in a free or low cost chat room or you can have your party via email. Be sure and create a relaxed and fun atmosphere for your guests. We would recommend a chat room.

You can either recruit someone to host party for you or you can be host. There is also something called "Mystery Host Party". This is where you draw or randomly select a guest to be "Mystery Host" and receive host benefits.

You will need to schedule your party. We have found that during week is best unless it is winter. Then weekends can be a good time also. Give yourself plenty of time to plan and send out invitations.

Plan your specials. You definitely want to have some items on special. Maybe some that tie in with your theme, if you have one. Give a 25% discount on certain items, but make sure you leave enough profit as well. You could also offer a small free gift with all orders over $25, for example.

Yes! No! Not sure!

Here are some pointers that might be useful to you.

Mindset #1: Your home business should be your passion Your home business must be something that interests you most. You must be ready to do anything and everything you can, to make it a success. If you stumble, find out your mistakes, learn from it, build on it and turn it into a success story. Never quit your business. It is only when you quit, you actually fail.

Never say, “I am going to try my home business for sometime. If it is fruitful to me, I will continue with it. If not, I will just forget it.” With this attitude, you might as well forget about your home business now. Yes, right now. There is no point in continuing when you have already fixed a time for quitting.

Mindset #2: You are your own Boss, hence more responsibility You are your own boss. Whatever happens to your business is entirely result of your efforts. You must strive consistently to grow your business and patiently wait for success. You can only slow down when you have become successful and after you have reached a point in your business, where your initial efforts continuously produce income for you.

Never think, “I am boss. Whether I work or not, nobody is here to question me. I can enjoy my life. I can postpone things as I like.” This will not help you or your business.

Mindset #3: You are not an employee. You are an entrepreneur You must be willing to invest all time you can in building your home business. You must not be time conscious when you are working for your business. Tell yourself that it will take a lot of efforts from your side before you can see your account balance grow.

Never have thinking that you can spend exactly 1 or 2 hours on your business everyday and can earn money for every hour you work. If you have this mindset, I am sorry, you are still an employee and not an entrepreneur.
