Millions of people go online, looking for the perfect home based business opportunity, each and every day. Most have no idea what it is they are looking for when they get started, and are quickly overwhelmed by all of the Internet opportunities available.

If you do a Google search for the string: home based business opportunity, you will come up with a result of 1,200,000,000 links to choose from. Similarly, the string: work from home, produces 4,210,000,000 results, so there is definitely no shortage of home business opportunities to consider.

So, where does one start?

The best place to start is to determine what type of home based business you are interested in. What are your interests, skills, and how much time do you have to commit to a home business opportunity? Are you a good verbal communicator? Do you have good writing skills? Do you work well as part of a team, or do you prefer to work solo? Are you looking for an Internet Opportunity, or would you prefer something that you can prosper in off line? Finally, how much money are you looking to make, a little, or a lot?

As you can see, there are many things to consider when seeking out a work from home opportunity.

If you are interested in a home business that will produce residual income, you have a variety of options, but most will require person to person contact, either over the telephone, or through the Internet.

Using automated marketing systems to handle customer follow ups is a must, and are available for a relatively low cost. Automated systems are not exclusive to follow up, however. There are Internet business opportunities that provide completely automated marketing systems that will handle all of your needs, from initial contact all the way through closing. These automated systems provide the home business entrepreneur a hands free system for generating income. They allow the user the freedom to make money without being chained to a desk, a telephone, or their computer.

Automated marketing systems, like Prosperity Automated Systems, remove the cold calling requirements of most other home business opportunities, as well as the hard selling and follow up. With this type of automated marketing system, there is no need to learn about unfamiliar products, no complicated software to master, no extra knowledge, or experience required at all, to get started making money.

Prosperity Automated Systems have outsourced all of the work, so that business owners no longer have to deal with these kinds of inhibiting factors:

1.	No in-home presentations 
 2.	No hotel meetings 
 3.	No out of town travel to seminars 
 4.	Absolutely no selling, telling, sponsoring, convincing, contacting or follow ups 
 5.	No chasing of friends, neighbors or family members

 8.	No sending countless marketing or follow up emails

The whole point of becoming your own boss and owning your own home based business is to free up your time for the things you want to do, and bring in additional income. With an automated marketing system like Prosperity, these home business goals can be accomplished. Why trade one set of chains for another? Home business owners are looking for freedom, and the use of automated marketing systems can provide that freedom and a lucrative income as well.
