This got my attention because there are so many self proclaimed gurus trying to get you to buy into their methods, it’s downright scary. This article gives you some ways to know if the person you are dealing with actually knows what she is talking about. Here’s the link to the article: http://darrenhardy.success.com/2010/08/dont-trust-experts/

    • Related posts brought to you by Yet Another Related Posts Plugin.]]>     Okay so I’ve been using pages instead of posts for certain things on my blog.  However for some reason, ever since I upgraded to the new version of wordpress,  I can’t edit my pages .  So I just have to figure out what I’m going to do.  I may just make those posts instead of pages. I’m not sure yet how to fix that problem.  I’m going to do some more digging.  The point I’m trying to make is that you need to try to find another way to get things done while you try to fix a problem with your blog.

    Small business owners worry about cash flow when times are tough like everyone else. This is a valid concern because small business owners have more responsibility than people that are just employees. Entrepreneurs are sometimes responsible for payroll, supplies, and benefits for their employees. In addition to these responsibilities, they have to buy the things they need for their own household to run smoothly. Just like you can save money on your household purchases, you can save money on the purchases you make for your business. The rest of this article will show you how you can save money on your daily small business purchases.

    Save money by buying secondhand clothes.
    Since you are working from home now, your wardrobe needs have changed. This is because you aren’t in other people’s faces everyday. You don’t have to have brand new clothes all the time because no one is going to see you. Now you should have one or two power suits for the rare times that you have to meet clients. You can get decent suits from consignment stores in your area.

    Buy used equipment
    As long as no safety hazard exists, there is no reason why you can’t use pre owned equipment. As long as whatever it is you are buying does what it is supposed to do, there is no reason to buy it used. You can usually find used office equipment by going to auctions. Sometimes when business fail, they sell their equipment at very low prices.

    Don’t skimp on professional services.
    There are some things that you don’t want to shortchange yourself on. You don’t want to use cheap attorneys and accountants. You will wind up paying double just to fix whatever it is they screwed up. Also don’t fall for using these cheap virtual assistants out there. Once again you will wind up spending time fixing their work. Some things you need to spend good money on. Decide what is in your budget for such services and go from there.

    Whether you are making money or not in your business, it is a good idea to control your expenses. You don’t want to spend all of the money you worked so hard to make frivolously. Use some of the tips in this article to help cut down on your spending the right way. You don’t want to cut back on things that are important to the survival of your business.

I usually like to try to find a free version of the plugin first. However, this one intrigued me because it came with PLR rights. Basically what it does is it allows you to make paypal links without having to go into your paypal account and all of that stuff. I won’t spend any more time talking about this since it’s a dimesale, so the longer you wait, the more you pay. Just click on the image to buy it.
