Welcome to jonandb.com.
Why? -
There maybe many reasons why you would want to start a new part time business from home. The current economy is not helping most of us and some extra income each month certainly helps to ease the pressure of mortgage costs, childcare fees and the general costs of living!
The benefits of having your own business are numerous including setting your own hours around your other commitments and the real pleasure of networking with like minded individuals.
We are here to help you make the right decisions for your choice of business and then offer support to help you set it up correctly both on-line and off-line.
To help us to understand your needs please honestly answer the following survey -
We will be in contact to discuss your survey with you and talk about suitable options.
To help you to decide what makes a good choice of business for a second income opportunity Belinda and I are currently writing a FREE book on the subject. To register your interest in this book when it becomes available please email us at info@jonandb.com.

How?
So how can we help you? Over the last few years we have helped many people including those in our own team set up an on-line presence to help promote themselves, their brand and ultimately their business opportunity. They have constantly expressed a wish for things to be simple, easy to set up and not be too time consuming. As teachers, Belinda and I excel at providing clear easy to understand systems and solutions to complicated subjects.
There are hundreds of internet sites and systems out there to help you to - 'create never ending lists of free leads' and 'earn thousands of pounds per month with our work at home system!' etc. Do they work? Are they just a scam? There is already so much to think about when setting up a new business that getting your presence on-line can prove very confusing and expensive.
We have signed up for these systems, taken the training and listened to all the advice and now have a wealth of experience to simplify and share with you!
Many of our team have also had conflicting advice from their own up-lines as to whether to use the internet, how to use social media and the whole 'old school v new school' debate.
We have built and continue to run two successful network marketing companies and have developed teams using old school and new school methods! As teachers we are always 'in school' learning new techniques and refining those that have worked so well in the past.
Also we have found that many of these courses, systems and webinars are based in the US and can involve late night log-ins to listen to the advice and discussions or you have to trawl through hours of recorded videos.
We are based in the UK and if you call us on UK time we will be there at the same time as you to support you and help your business grow.
You will probably come across the phrase 'Attraction Marketing' on the internet and this is an area where we have seen much confusion and debate. A good friend of ours, Rachel Henke (www.rachelhenke.com) has written a great book on the subject.
You can download a copy here -
It clearly describes the attraction marketing principles and we thoroughly recommend it. She has also put together an excellent attraction marketing system that you can use 'straight out of the box' to begin marketing your business online quickly - CLICK HERE for further info.
Our own systems are extremely simple and we take you through the process in bite sized chunks with on-screen video tutorials and of course, you have us to talk to. The following areas are covered to give you the confidence to set yourself up and promote yourself on-line.

Help for Small Businesses
We are increasingly helping other small business owners get their own marketing presence on-line. For many years they have built 'static' brochure style web sites which looked great, cost money to update and have not really increased their business. To make money from these sites and build brand awareness they realised that they had to get visitors to the sites! They then started using SEO (search engine optimisation) to rank their sites and get good quality visitors. Unfortunately although they have seen an increase in 'traffic' they really have not seen an increase in sales.
The missing link is 'marketing'. Marketing is used to take the 'traffic' from your site and convert it into leads and sales.
During this process a brand loyalty is developed.
'Know, like and trust' has always been the way business has been conducted off-line and should also be the way that it takes place on-line.
We can help you to develop your own on-line presence that develops this trust.
Our experience has shown us that there are 3 steps to on-line success -
- Build a website that attracts, converts and sells to your customers
- Use techniques to send loads of targeted traffic to your site
- Use Attraction Marketing techniques and Social Media to keep connected with these customers and build brand awareness and loyalty.
Building your own on-line presence for marketing purposes is an excellent way for you to connect with your customers. Site updates are easily performed by you and it is easy to create monthly newsletters and other forms of communication such as surveys and email auto-responders.
Coaching and Training
If all of this already seems overwhelming and complicated, rest assured we have simple systems in place to help you get started.
At jonandb.com we can also offer personal coaching to work with you on a more 121 level - please call to discuss this further.
During the last year we have helped many individuals set up their on-line presence. Many videos and worksheets have been produced covering a wide range of topics. We are now currently putting all of this together into an amazingly easy to follow course that will be available later on in the year!
