My current full time Internet business started as a part time opportunity run on some laptop at my day job employer's premises.

I was hired as a specialist PR writer and there were long stretches of inactivity and while the rest of the guys idled it away chatting and consuming huge amounts of coffee, I spent it on the Internet. I started off seriously looking at every viable Internet opportunity that I thought I could comfortably run off a laptop.

Finally I settled on using my writing skills to create blogs and cash in on affiliate programs and at the same time providing SEO writing services to clients.

My Internet business opportunity using a laptop started off slowly as there was a lot to learn, especially about how to promote and market the services that I was offering.

Soon I had a system in place that worked pretty well and I was able to put in some good work in my brand new Internet business opportunity using laptops during slow periods. At work my employer had no problem with me using the Internet link and when I got off, I would use various links to the net depending on where I was at that particular time.

Fortunately my Internet business opportunity using a laptop soon started to take off pretty well. It was just as well because shortly after things started to look up, I became a victim of down-sizing. I really didn't think that I was ready to turn my part time Internet business opportunity using a laptop into a full time venture just yet. So I continued to look for a new job even as I developed my small Internet business. To my surprise and delight my laptop Internet business opportunity started taking care of me and I abandoned my job-seeking efforts to fully concentrate on the business.
