Do your children ever write letters to Santa? Then you probably know about the various Santa letter businesses that are around. You write them a letter and Santa writes back, for a fee. Why couldn´t you make money doing just that?

The holiday writing business isn´t just restricted to Christmas, you can capitalize on a number of other holidays. Why not become the Easter Bunny for Easter or a ghost for Halloween?

This is a business that is easily set up online. Set up a webpage for your business and write up some sample letters to give people an idea of what to expect. You can personalize one of three or four form letters and send them to expectant children. It would be a good idea to have a form on your site to get some basic information about the child the letter is for so you can personalize it even more. For example, you might want to mention that Liliana was such a good girl this year, helping with her new baby brother, Andre, that she will be getting something extra special.

If you get enough traffic to your website, you can earn quite a bit of money. Not to mention, it´s a lot of fun! Imagine making hundreds of children happy while you earn money? Not a bad job if you ask me.

Alice and Mila, over at Mom´s Talk Network, have put together a series of home-based business ebooks and one of them is all about the Santa letter business. If you are seriously interested in starting this type of business, it would be a good idea to pick up a copy. The book tells you everything you need to know, right down to how you can get that North Pole postmark that makes your letters so authentic.
