I’m always surprised to learn how few people are aware of the numerous part-time job opportunities available online. Most people simply don’t know how (or where) to search for them.
Have your heard of the term “freelance” or “freelancers?” You probably have when you think about it for a minute, and most likely you associate the word with the phrase “freelance writer.” But writing is not the only job one can do as a freelancer.
Other freelance jobs one can do, and find numerous postings for online, include:
- Software design
- Web Design
- Computer programming
- Web development/scripting
- Article writing
- Review writing
- Proofreading
- Graphic design
- Data entry
- Forum posting
- Brochure creation
These are just a few of the type of freelance jobs that you can find and contract for online. They exist on sites that cater to freelancers and they are legitimate jobs that one contracts for directly with the person or company seeking the freelancer.
Popular websites where one can find freelance work include:
- eLance.com
- GetaFreelancer.com
- LanceMonster.com
- iFreelance.com
- Freelance.com
Of the services above, I’ve used both eLance.com and GetaFreelancer.com. Both services produced great results and were easy to work with. If you’re sitting at home with nothing to do in this weak economy, check out one or more of these services to see if you can land a freelance assignment online.

One of the greatest part-time income opportunities you’ll ever come across, whether looking for an online business or a traditional offline business, is that of a Watkins home products business. Founded in 1868, Watkins was not only one of the first home products businesses in America, but it has always marketed its products through a network of work-at-home indepedent Watkins associates, or dealers.
Today’s Watkins manufactures over 350 different products for home, family and personal use. Independent Watkins associates have numerous ways and methods to build and operate their independent businesses. The cost of joining Watkins and being able to buy at wholesale (i.e., a 25% discount) is only $39.95 plus tax. Each year thereafter, the cost of renewing an associates’s wholesale membership is $30 per year.
Watkins is an outstanding company with an impeccable reputation. The company has never had a single product recall in its 142-year history. This speaks volumes about the care the company takes in the manufacturing process and concern for producing all products to extremely high standards.
The Watkins compensation plan is one that rewards associates for building their own independent Watkins sales organizations. A dealer not only makes money from his or her own sales, but earns an over-riding bonus on the sales of anyone he or she recruits, as well all associates below their personally sponsored level. Thus, the residual income earning potential of Watkins makes it an outstanding part-time income producing opportunity.
