Default Are there any home based businesses that really work?

I don't want someone to tell me it's only $X to join, and that you or someone you know made $XXXX in one day/month/whatever. If you have or know of a legit biz, let me know exactly what you selll or do without going into too much detail. Sum it up in a small paragraph.Here's an example...I currently work at Angie's List. I see advertising in our magazine and website to qualified businesses that are on the list and part of my territory. I call, I tell them how it works, they buy, and I get a %.Please. I don't want to see a ton of "fluff." Thank you in advance.Correction - Suppose to say I "sell" advertising.Fran - you totally ignored my request.

I sell AVON, I love it, I get commission on sales plus I get bonus commissions on what people sell in my downline. It's not get rich quick, tax perks are great, I make my car payment from my earnings, been doing it 18 months. If you are interested in data entry and customer service from home a friend does live ops, gets about $12 hr, been doing it 3 yrs says she loves it. If you need more info email meRose

I have done Mary Kay for about 8 years. It is legit and money can be made. Not overnight but with some work. I had a car for their car program and enjoy the discounts and tax benefits. I am military so it helps that it will go wherever I do.I also recently began Homemade Gourmet. I like the products, the benefits and it is also legit. If you have questions or want info just let me know.Helen

Hi! Yes there are home based businesses that really work. You just need to be careful. Make sure that whatever it entails you actually have a product involved. Many say that they have a product, but really all the product is, is the opportunity to sign up. So really you only profit from making people sign up to try and make a profit. A very vicious cycle. Honestly I think your best bet is to look at yourself and see what truly inspires you. Do you like children's toys, cooking, make-up, etc etc. Once you figure out your passion then start looking for credible companies that do those things. Personally I am a big women's health advocate and work for a company that has that as a focus. I do in home parties and help women understand their own sexual health as well as help them with their relationships. This business is definitely for me, but isn't for everyone. I would recommend checking out some of the wahm sites, like www.wahm.co. There are lots of resources and message boards that can help you find the opportunity that suites you best. Good Luck!CaronSr. Consultant, Pure Romancewww.RomanceByCaron.com

You have two choices. Find a reputable company to sell their products through home parties, etc. OR make your own work. I used to sell Avon for many years. I enjoyed a nice part-time income with minimal work. I am now designing, creating, and selling my own jewelry line. It is a lot more work, longer hours, more hassle. BUT it is enormously gratifying. The biggest difference between the two is the start up cost. If you REALLY want to work for yourself, why not start out with some company and work towards starting up your own company with your own product. You don't have to be nationally known to make a living at doing what you like.The bottom line is.....if you want to get something out of it, you have to work at it. Just my two cents worth.PK
