In order to answer that question, it is important to determine what is unique about a Christian home based business. What would make this different from any ministry a person might become involved in? An obvious answer would be that a primary objective of any business is making money. A ministry, such as operating a food pantry, teaching adults to read, or any number of other activities might be developed purely to meet the needs of others, alleviate suffering, and glorify God.Asking a clarifying question, like the familiar, “What would Jesus do?” can be helpful in determining whether a business opportunity qualifies as Christian in your understanding or not. Obviously, you will not be considering anything immoral or unethical. You would also not be involved in something that takes advantage of or exploits someone else.Have you ever gone online to look for a Christian home based business? Discouraging, isn’t it? Maybe even scary! How do you navigate through all the offers out there and determine which ones are legitimate and which ones are just an attempt to separate you from your money? I think the phrase,”Be wise as serpents and innocent as doves,” Matthew 10:16, describes the narrow path we have to walk in establishing a Christian home based business.I imagine you have heard the statistics that 95-98% of people who start a home based business, let alone a Christian home based business, fail. Like most of us, you have more than likely either failed at a home based business or know someone who has. With all those things stacked against you, why would you even try? That gets back to the single most important question to ask yourself,”Why am I considering this?” What do I want badly enough that I am willing to do whatever work is necessary and assume whatever risks are required to reach my goal.In planning to start a Christian based home business the “why” should definitely be more significant than making money, paying off bills or even living a better lifestyle. As a Christian our motivation should be grounded in our faith. That gives us an extra level of stability since it moves our motivation and resolve from simply something in our own self interest to meeting the needs of someone else.It follows Jesus’ words when he was asked what the greatest commandment is, “And he said to them, ‘You shall love the Lord your God with all your heart and with all your soul and with all your mind. This is the great and the first commandment. And a second is like it: you shall love your neighbor as yourself.’” Matthew 22:37-39. Blending these two should be our ultimate goal in a Christian home based business.It sounds like a tall order, and it is, to combine total love of God, ourself and others, but the right Christian home based business can accomplish exactly that. If we do nothing that we would not want to share openly with God, then we know what we are doing will glorify Him. In a way our business becomes a standard by which others evaluate us. That becomes even more significant when we attach the standard of our faith to the performance of our business. We are actually inviting people to include this in their evaluation of us.If we endeavor to create only “win-win” scenarios in our relationships, we know that we are placing the best interest of others at least on a par with our own. With this foundation, your Christian home based business can really be a ministry that will bless you and others and glorify God. Combined with that, it can be the source of financial reward, allowing you to meet your own needs as well as the needs of others.

As an Arizona real estate lawyer I have met with hundreds of people who have questions about real estate transactions they are involved in or considering getting involved in. Many of these questions surround the myriad of documents that are typically associated with the purchase of real estate. One of these documents is the Preliminary Title Report.

Most people who purchase real estate will review dozens of documents that they are expected to understand before closing the deal. The Preliminary Title Report is prepared by the title company selected by the parties and/or the lender who will be financing the purchase, and it constitutes an offer on the part of the title insurance company issue a title insurance policy covering the real estate at issue, subject to the exceptions stated in the report.

The exceptions really are the primary points of interest for the buyer who is evaluating a property, and buyers should reserve the right to cancel the transaction pending the opportunity to review and approve the title report and the stated exceptions. These exceptions may indicate potential problems with the property, so it is vitally important for the report to be carefully reviewed and understood as soon as it is received. The exceptions identified in a Preliminary Title Report are the same items that will be shown as exceptions to coverage in the title insurance policy upon closing, subject of course to changes that may occur before the time of closing (hence the designation as “preliminary”).

The report is issued in response to an application for title insurance,typically for the purpose of facilitating due diligence requirements and confirming the availability of a policy in a form and content approved by the parties to the transaction. In some instances a party may wish to understand what defects or problems exist associated with title to a certain property, but not necessarily in connection with a contemplated sale or purchase. If that is the case, instead of requesting a Preliminary Title Report, the party should consider a Condition of Title Report, which will identify the same items that would be listed as exceptions, and which is generally less costly.

Significantly, the Preliminary Title Report disclaims liability and typically states that it is being provided solely to facilitate the subsequent issuance of a title insurance policy. Prior to that issuance, the title insurer purports to assume no liability for errors in the report. In other words, any claim asserting a defect in title must be made under the title policy and not the Preliminary Title Report. The Preliminary Title Report includes a number of items, including the exceptions referenced above. These items include:

The legal interest interest in the property that is to be covered.
The legal owner of the estate or interest who is to be insured under the policy if and when it is issued.
The legal description of the parcel of land involved.
The exceptions, including liens, judgments, claims, encumbrances and other risks or potential risks, which will not be insured against if a title policy is issued.

Product creation in Internet marketing is getting stiffer and stiffer nowadays owing to tough competition between Internet-based businesses. Putting up a new product requires plenty of brainpower and finances along with an ability to take risk. With that, even if you have the product well-set already, you have to position it strategically in the Internet landscape for others to notice. You should get the interest of Web users and turn them to actual customers. Aside from the usual physical products, many different products that thrive well on Internet marketing include E-books, membership sites, and video lectures.

The long and difficult process of product creation begins with ideas. They are easy to get – compared to the effort that comes with analyzing the market for that idea. Before the idea turns to a product, businesses often spend money, even amounting to millions of dollars, to ensure the success of the new product that emerges from an idea. Businesses undertake many types of market research and surveys before releasing their products to the public. Now, you may think that because your business is small, you can’t afford research or you don’t have to do research; you can and you should. The Internet allows you to disseminate materials needed for your market study to many people at once without your having to spend a cent.

It is a common maxim in business: Look at your destination first before mapping out your journey. So what are the goals you intend to accomplish with your product creation ventures? The everyday travails of your business may make you forget the end in sight. On the other hand, prepare to entertain new developments that come to your mind in your product creation. Your conception of a product may have started this way, but a few tweaks here and there along with some market research results and it ends up another way. Take it as the result of a creative process, not as a failure to reach your goal. After all, your product creation activities are intertwined with a long-term goal that you should strive to sustain at your utmost: profit generation. So if your less profitable initial idea evolves to a more profitable product, be thankful!

With your product made up already, start doing some aggressive Internet marketing. A product purchase typically comes after more than five times a customer is exposed to an informative call-to-buy message. Thus it is important to get the contact details, like the e-mail address, of potential customers who are on the brink of a sale. Use the results of your market research to determine the demographics to which you should concentrate your marketing efforts.

With consistent product creation, you can make an inventory of your products that you can market in due time. Just keep making products – the moment you succeed in making and marketing a product, customers are surely wanting more from you, so give it to them. Keep them on your side through constant product creation.
