Several of you mention that you work from home. I was recently laid off and need to find something that fits into my 9yr old's school day. I transfer her to a school other than the one we're zoned for so I have to drive her and pick her up everyday due to no bus transportation. That limits my working hours, but I could put in more time if I did it from home. What do you do, how do you do it and how did you get started?

What can I do next?

I help other save on their electricity cost and the compensation is great. The income potential is unbelivable. Check out the video and tell me what you like most.

R.,

I'm a Stampin' Up! Demonstrator. I set my own hours and work as much as little as I want and need. Stampin' Up! has been around for 20 years. The moto is to "love what we do and share what we love, as we help other enjoy creativity and worthwhile accomplishments... in this we make a difference!

My minimum to sell (or purchase) is $300 per quarter to stay active. Easily achieved with one party. I receive incentives, bonuses and commissions from my downlines sales. There is constant internet and telephone support too.

I do home parties, birthday parties and teach classes. Also, the Angel Policy has changed, so I'm able to take my creations and put them on consignment with local craft stores. Scrapbooking and card making, crafts are in big demand.

Hi R.,

I have 3 girls also 7,5, and 2. They are my pride and joy. I made the decision to stay home with them when they were first born. My husband and I have never regretted this decision but would changes something if we had the chance to do it over again.

Let me tell you, it was very difficult for us in the beginning but I can tell you now that things are looking brighter for our family each and every day. I tried several home base business in the past that require you to purchase kits, pick kits back up, and took time anyway from my family. I was not really working from home but away from my home.

A couple of year ago, I was able to partner up with a wonderful company that allows me to work from home when I wanted too and around my children schedule. I did not have to sell any product, carry inventory, or deliver any products to any one. It was with a sound company with a sound track record and growth of over 900M. This company will continue to grow each and every year even in trouble economy.

My training, support, and website were FREE to me. The best thing about working from home was NOT SPENDING ANY ADDITIONAL MONEY at all. I have been able to meet many wonderful individual team member who are now my extended family.

Please contact me at ____@____.com if you would like some additional information. Right now there is a promotion that you would not want to miss.

Hi R.!

I understand what you mean. I am expecting my first child in July and plan on stayng home after he is born.
I am a creative memories consultant and LOVE IT! You can make your own hours, and one of the best things is you can celebrate your own memories at cost! The only investment you have to make is putting in a $500 order every three months to stay active.

This can be done from one get togeter. We offer scrapbooking (traditional, digital and slide-in) as well as custom framing. Feel free to take a look at my website to give you more info. www.mycmsite.com/caraobi.
