What would be a safe home business to start?

I am a personal trainer here in Arizona and have been part of the fitness industry for many years. I am interested in searching for a home business I can do on the side to put some extra money away. I could always do side training but I'm looking for something different! Any suggestions from people who are having success with a home business?

You may have well written: EVERYONE PLEASE SPAM ME WITH GET-RICH-QUICK SCHEMES! I suggest you go to Craig's List or Monster or iFreeLance and look for people who want to hire extra help to work from home. Stay away from all the offers that clog everyone's email inbox. NONE of these will earn you a dime.
If I were you, I would do my due diligence when it comes to trying to find a home business. I have a lot of experience in the home business arena and a lot of what I initially found were scams. Try Project PayDay. Just Google it and read up on it. I've made a lot of money there. Also I'm sure you've heard of eBay. It's probably the easiest way to begin a home business. I have free information on home businesses at my blog: http://www.frank-mayes.com
I sell beautiful, highquality jewelry through a home based business. The name of the business is Lia Sophia. The business is based out of the Chicago, IL area. Previously know as Lady Remington. I LOVE selling the jewelry and it is easy to sell something that I love and wear myself.
Many people join home based opportunities without really knowing what they are getting themselves in to. This is probably one of the biggest reasons for the fact that some people have very low thoughts about this type of business. However it works if you do it right. That said, here are some really poor reasons for getting started in a home based business: 1) Earning "easy money" I know - people are very good a promoting their business as a simple 1-2-3 process that anyone can do and become an instant millionaire. Especially online it has almost become a standard to use super long and totally over hyped sales letters. This is the equivalent of claiming that anyone who can open a can of beans can be a master chef. Don't get me wrong, I do think most people can make it in a home based business if they put their minds to it. But you must be prepared to learn many new things and you WILL have to work for it. Make no mistake about that! 2) Thinking that a product is so great it will sell itself This is a classic mistake, because most systems simply aren't really about the product. This fact is difficult to swallow, I know. As a greenhorn I remember joining this lottery syndicate-MLM, thinking that "everybody" would want better chances at winning the lottery - right? The disappointment was huge when I discovered the truth - some people even made fun of any attempt to mention this great new thing I had discovered. Likewise, in MLM, it will not matter if you are selling a breakthrough product that contains every mineral and vitamin under the sun - if you do not understand what network marketing is really all about. 3) Doing an old friend a favour We have all been there - an old friend you haven't met for years who suddenly calls you and wantS to set up a meeting about something he will tell you more about when you meet... I'm not saying that this couldn't be a potentially good business. But calling all your friends is a very ineffective way to do business, and you should never join any opportunity only to do someone else a favour. Because in the end this is about you, your money and your career. 4) Earning a lot of money in a short period of time Most testimonials always seem to go something like this: - In my first month I made $800 and now, in my third month, I have been able to quit my job and...etc. While not outright lies, testimonials like these are usually collected from individuals who, through luck or skill, managed to join this particular opportunity from the very beginning. They are simply at the top of the line and they often know exactly what they are doing - they're the experts. Like most offerings, mlm opportunities have a life cycle that grows rapidly in the beginning. During this phase of explosive growth it can be very easy to sponsor dozens of new people per day, with relatively little effort. After all, this is something entirely new and one well placed ad can do wonders. However, if you join after this initial explosion, it is much more difficult to see quick results and it requires more effort to attract new people into the business. Patience, knowledge and the right strategy is required to succeed here. 5) Big name X endorses this program This is somewhat related to the previous point. Mr. Big Hitter have made thousands of dollars with this opportunity already and he is not shy about telling anyone how easy it was. And he's probably not lying either. It was easy - for him. Because, like noted above, he probably got involved in this opportunity long before it was launched to the general public, because he already knows all the right people. He (or she), also know their stuff, and have the resources (large email lists, advanced Internet marketing tools etc.) to quickly and efficiently let the word out to a large number of people. If you are relatively new to this game, it is a very bad idea indeed to assume that you instantly could pull off feats worthy of a network marketing guru. Would you compare your golfing abilities to those of Tiger Woods? I didn't think so. 6) Thinking this will be a free business to run I'm not talking about the membership fee of your opportunity here, because that is a given. But many people falsely believe that they can market entirely for free using the Internet. While it's true that there are some effective low cost Internet marketing techniques you can use, you should never fool yourself into believing that Internet marketing will be a no cost affair. Moreover, the online competition is usually quite fierce. To summarise; a home based business can offer an exciting new way to earn money. But your motivation for getting involved in a home based business shouldn't be based on one of the misconceptions mentioned above. Treat your business like a business, and you will be OK. David
I am a stay at home mom and also work a wonderful home business. It is basically free to start for the month of february as well. I would love to have you join my team. Let me know if you would like some more info.
You're making a good move. Maybe you already know that over 24 million people are working from home right now, that's the reason I'm trying to do the same as well. I personally think my best bet would be to start some kind of online business. The internet spawned new jobs that could easily be done from home with just a computer and an internet connection, so it's easier than ever before to make a very large income from the comfort of your home! Just be aware with all those "get rich quick" scams out there.

The most common home business would probably be running an online auction. Other than that consider google adsense on your website(if you have one)
