How to Assemble Bookmarks at Home to Make Money
Find stock images for your bookmarks whose rights that allow you to use them commercially, and save them to your computer. Since women and elderly people are the most avid book readers, according to a 2007 Associated Press-Ipsos survey, consider catering your bookmark designs to them. For example, you might save a black and white image of a record player for one bookmark and an image of a pink high heel for another.
Use image editing software to resize the image to 1-by-6 inches so that it's the size of a bookmark. Print two copies of the image on stock card. You may have to adjust the paper weight settings on your computer's printer settings for the paper to feed into the printer correctly.
Cut out the images. Glue the blank sides together so that the image shows right side up on both sides of the bookmark.
Lay a layer of laminate carefully on top of the bookmark, lining it up with one edge of the bookmark before smoothing it down. Flip the bookmark over and repeat this process on the other side to wrap the bookmark in a protective layer.
Punch a hole through the bookmark, about 1 cm below the center of the top edge. Thread a ribbon, or a bundle of three pieces of yarn, through the hole and tie a knot gently securing it to the bookmark.
Repeat steps 1 through 5 to make a collection of various bookmarks. Make several copies of each design.
Calculate the cost of your materials to make the bookmarks. Divide this total by the number of bookmarks you have made to determine the price you must sell each for to break even. Add to this amount to make a profit. For example, if each bookmark cost you 5 cents to make, you can charge $1 per bookmark and make a profit of 95 cents on each one.
Give your bookmark business a name. People will need a name when referring others to your business.
Take pictures of your bookmarks. You will need them as samples of your products.
Make posters advertising your bookmarks. Include your business name, prices, contact information and photos of your bookmarks. Ask a manager for permission to post them in places where your target market is likely to gather, such as bookstores, coffee shops, retirement homes and salons.

How to Promote Your Website In 10 Easy Ways
Advertise In The Media You might have already ruled out advertising in the media as too expensive, but that is not always the case. Always check the rates and don't asume that advertising in the media is out of your reach.
Write Your Website Address On Things Whether it's a product, a carrier bag or just the front door of your office, make sure to write your web address on there.
Go To Special Events If there's some kind of trade fair for the industry your website is promoting, turn up to it and market your website.
Give Out Leaflets There's nothing wrong with a bit of old-fashioned paper marketing promotion. Leaflet as many areas as you can.
Put Your Website Address On Your Business CardsThis should go without saying, but once you've gone trough all that trouble to set up a website, don't forget to put it on all of your business cards.
Participate on Forums An often overlooked way of getting traffic to your website is to post on forums related to the subject and put your web address in your signature.
Create Controversy A great trick to promote any website is to use it to say controversial things. As the old saying goes, any publicity is good publicity.
Write a Good BlogWhile more and more businesses are starting blogs, few of them are doing it properly. Make sure your blog has always something interesting to say. Everyone has to be able to understand your point of view in plain and simple terms.
Buy Search Engine Traffic Many people seem to think it's some kind of admission of defeat, but search engine advertising if used properly can produce very good results.
Start an Affiliate ProgramOffer the affiliates a portion of the profits if they can sell your products for you, and all of a sudden you've got a motivated sales team ready to go.
I hope this information was helpful to you . I'm still learning more things every day that you can do to promote your website. Please check my Resources box below for additional information about money making ideas.

How to Make Money in Fable 2
Take some jobs. When you first start adventuring, these are the fastest ways to make gold. They will start out slowly, but as you advance in rank, jobs like Blacksmithing, Bartending and Woodcutting will make quite a bit of money for you. Assuming you get good enough, jobs like Bartending can earn 1,000+ gold for each beverage served.
Invest in property. This is the single greatest way to make money in Fable 2. No other method earns you as much money as renting property does. It will take time to make a lot of money with it, but you will earn money as you play and even when you're not playing. To invest in property, approach the white paper near the door and select 'Buy and Rent Out'. You will collect 1% (give or take a little, depending on the economy) of the property's value every five minutes while playing the game.
Collect some bounties. Later in the game, bounty hunting is a good way to earn some extra cash as well as some Experience and maybe pick up some new items. Make sure you save before you attempt to collect the bounty, just in case it turns out to be more than you can handle.
Be a merchant. Throughout the game, the stores will have sales where you can pick up goods at a 25%, 50% or even 75% discount. Add to that an Owner's Discount (if you own the shop) and you can pick up some goods for next to nothing. Sell these goods back to a vendor when there is a shortage going on and you can earn a tidy profit.
Sell your extras. Do you really need more than one Patchy Coat? Why not sell the rest? You will invariably pick up duplicate clothing and weapons on your journey. Selling the extras can help line your pockets or help you save for the next big purchase.
Run The Crucible if you've got spare time. If you're looking for productive ways to kill time between plot points, why not have a run through The Crucible in Westcliff? You can go back through as many times as you want, and each time means more Experience and gold for you. If you get enough perfect rounds, there are additional prizes.
Add a Gold Burden or Golden Touch augment to one of your weapons. Both of these augments earn you gold each time you kill an opponent with them. Golden Touch is the superior of the two. Gold Burden causes you to do a little less damage, Golden Touch does not.

How to Earn Money by Running a Food Stand
Review your areas of food expertise and create a plan. Try using one of your prized recipes so people seek out your food stand over others.
Research companies that provide supplies for small local food stands. Order from the one that suits you business and pick up other food supplies, condiments and paper products at a warehouse stores.
Contact your local government about licensing. Find out where you need to purchase the appropriate commercial kitchen equipment or try to lease or buy quality used equipment.
Check out competitive pricing structures. Stay in the median range so people don't decide to go to the next food stand and save money.
Print an attractive sign with your menu and prices. Situate yourself at public events where there are crowds of people. You will compete with other vendors when events are run by the city or school systems. Keep an up-to-date business plan in order to compete with other vendors.
Branch out to fairs, carnivals and park areas. Think about setting up your food stand near a local college as well. Hire a few trustworthy people with kitchen knowledge to help you achieve success.

How to Earn Respect as a Substitute Teacher
Dress professionally, even for a relaxed school. Children make quick first impressions, and casual clothing may signal a casual attitude to the students. Use professional clothes to set a tone of authority when you walk into the classroom.
Write a list of rules on paper. Keep the list brief, as the students need to remember all of the rules you set that day. Set at least three to show you are serious and to maintain control over the classroom. Bring the paper with you to the class as a reminder.
Arrive at least 30 minutes early. Read the school and classroom rules. Not knowing and not following the same rules the children do loses you respect. Use the regular teacher's planner to determine where the children are in their studies.
Introduce yourself clearly. Maintain eye contact and use a firm tone of voice to convey authority to the students. Go over the rules you wrote to establish order and expectations. Write them on the whiteboard or put them in a visible place.
Ask the students if you are unsure about a classroom procedure or matter. Students might be more likely to respect a substitute teacher who asks for assistance rather than trying to guess.
Keep a positive attitude. Do not yell at students or make negative remarks about the school or regular teacher, even if you have reason to do so.
