Hi! I'm S. and if you are looking for a stay at home job, I am living proof that it's possible! I have a 16 month old, and want nothing more then to be home with her all the time. The company I work for makes that possible! Work at home united provides great support and motivation to get started and earn big money. I earned more then $500 my first month alone, granted I had a great first month, but I am proof that it is possible! This isn’t something that will make you rich over night, but if you’re willing to put in a little time, the pay off will be huge, not can be, WILL be. Please let me know if you would like more information wither by emailing me, ____@____.com, or visiting my website www.livetotalwellness.com/sammi


I can’t wait to hear from you!

Hi,

I saw your ad and thought I would respond. I am a sahm to 3 beautiful (but very time consuming!) kids. Anyway a couple of months ago I was debating whether or not to go back to work and with daycare costs, and gas prices what they are, I realized I need to do something from home. I thought about doing daycare but realized I value my freedom way too much (and my 3 kids are PLENTY of work;) I found a position with a solid 16 year old company, marketing and enrolling new members into discount health benefit programs. You can work from your house as long as you have internet access and a phone. The company offers 6 months adv. pay, daily pay, health benefits for your entire household, 401k options and life insurance. The position is commission based but very lucrative considering 7 out of 10 people are either uninsured or under insured. The programs are VERY affordable ranging between $19.95 - $59.95 per month for the entire household. This is a booming field to get into given the current economic situation and healthcare crisis. Let me know if you would like more information, it has been a great opportunity for me and my family.

Best of Luck!

Hi L.~
I myself work from home as a mortgage loan advisor, but that is something that you have to get licensed for, etc. However, I have a few girlfriends who use to work from home. They did things like Pampered Chef & Avon. My one friend who did Avon was comfortably successful. It only cost her $20 to get started. There aren't really any shows or anything that would cause her to be out of the house regularly. She would have to go out to deliver the orders, but that's really it. I believe the orders were actually delivered right to her house. She would take her orders over the phone, online, etc. She would just put her books & order forms out at public places like Walmart, Jewel, etc. I was amazed at how many people would pick the books up & call her. She did pretty good for herself. It wasn't anything phenomenal, but enough to add to her fiance's income, and gave them extra cash to "tuck away". My mom's friend has been doing Avon for like 15 years, and has been successful enough to make that her sole career~She actually supports herself off of that income alone!! As for ads online to work from home, I personally don't think those would be all that legitimate, but that is just my opinion.
Sorry to ramble on, I just wanted to give you as many details as I could!!
Good luck.

First it would help to know what you have education in or know you have special tallents to do. I know that there are a lot of at home businesses now with make-up, food, candles, jewlery, and decorating. Mary Kay and Tastefully Simple are just a couple. Other than that you would have to be trained in things like Medical transcription which the cost of the classes run $1500 or more. Good luck..

Good for you for checking out the options and feedback on the businesses...I also have a business, with PartyLite Candles, and I truly believe Direct Sales to be a fantastic way to make money and keep your flexibility. I also believe that you should choose a product that you love..and as someone else mentioned, a consumable product is helpful because you can get more repeat business!
I have been with PartyLite for 8 years and have consistent income, and a continuously growing business.
Questions to ask on ANY direct sales business....What is the investment cost? What kind of training and support will you receive and does it cost anything/where is it?
What level of business are you expected to maintain and for how long? What happens if you don't maintain it? Is there potential for increased commission?
I would be happy to answer any questions for you! I think having your own business is a great opportunity-feel free to check out my website www.my.partylite.biz/sherryelkins to see a little about partylite, or contact me directly to talk about direct sales! Good Luck! S.

Hi, L.!

I know everyone who is working a home based, direct sales business will be contacting you...as they should. What I can say to set Mon aVie apart from all of the rest is this...

MonaVie is about to enter into its 5th month of its 4th year in business and they are almost at $1BILLION in sales! MonaVie is the fastest growing direct marketing company in history and their compensation plan was listed in Fortune Magazine as the most powerful comp plan in direct sales.

In addition, MonaVie has an outstanding product that your whole family can drink....even your kids! They are in the wellness boom, so the timing for this business is ideal. MonaVie has an outstanding management team, including a full medical advisory board and scientific researchers who have been testing and studying the product for well over 10 years! And...one of the main reasons I am in MonaVie, is the cause. MonaVie gives back! They have the M.O.R.E. Project (MonaVie Operation Rescue, which is saving our rainforests in the Amazon by saving the trees there. MonaVie is housing, educating, clothing and feeding the underpriviledged children in Brazil, and they also built condos for the distributors to go and visit and stay as long as they wish, for FREE, to love and care for these disadvantaged children and people.

Now...here is my story...

I am a mother of two children, ages 13 and 19. I am engaged to a wonderful man with two children, ages 2 and 7. The 7 year old lives with us and I stay at home with her.

I spent my entire life in Corporate America, other than when my 19 year old sone was born, until he turned 2. I had to work and over the years since then, I worked my way up to a Director of Recruiting. I built an awesome career for myself, making well over 6 figures, and then I was suddenly laid off, along with my entire recruiting team that I had built, and almost 100 other employees, last November!

At the time, my fiance was a stay-at-home dad, because he had had major back surgery a year earlier and once released back to work, had a hard time finding a good job in his field. Because of my salary, we were able to have him stay home to take his daughter to school and to pick her up every day.

Within three months of my lay off, we were literally buried in late bills, and although I had been trying desperately to find another job, finding one at the salary I was accustomed to, and adding the fact that I do not have a college degree, I simply was not finding any work! Corporate America had also taken its toll on me, having traveled 90% for my Director position, I was barely ever home. The stress and being undervalued and underpaid for my efforts was ridiculous.

I was introduced to an incredible direct marketing business opportunity right before I was laid off, called MonaVie. I had actually bought the product in October and started drinking it, to help me sleep at night and ease the lower back pain I have experienced since the birth of my son. I started talking about the juice to people, as it was benefitting my health greatly, and people wanted to know where they could get some MonaVie.

Long story, short, L.,....I made the decision to NEVER go back to a corporate job because life is too short and my family and family values are too important for me to sacrifice. Plus, I know that direct marketing is the way of the future and these companies are the ONLY way for people to make the unlimited income they deserve, based on the efforts they put into it! So, if you only want to make $500. extra per month, or if you want to make an additional $5000. per month, MonaVie allows for you to do just that!

I realize that, just as there are poorly run and poorly functioning corporations out there, that there are also good and bad direct marketing companies out there. SO....I did a TON of research on MonaVie and everything checked out on top. MonaVie has the product, the timing, the management team and an awesome cause all rolled into one incredible future for those who are looking for good health and good wealth!

So....with all that said.....I'd love to chat with you on the phone and send you some info on MonaVie so at least you can be informed, and then YOU can decide if it is right for you.

I love being at home, working as much or as little as I want to, being able to travel with my fiance and our children, being at all of the school functions and softball games and conferences, without being told by my employer, that I can't go, or without feeling guilty that I am leaving work behind that will need to be tending to, eventually.

MonaVie has been the ultimate blessing for me. Maybe it will be the answer for you too.

Please email me at ____@____.com, take a look at my website at thegreatproduct.com/ourabundantlives. Look at The Product, and look at The Opportunity. I will look forward to hearing from you. I sincerely hope I can solve your dilemma and give you the opportunity to stay home with your beautiful children!

God Bless!
