I am an accomplished business woman who married a military man. My family is scheduled to move two times in the next nine months. I can not find reliable, affordable daycare that will deal with me working temp positions. I would love to find some part time work I can do from home, no matter where home is. Does anyone have any real places that could use honest hard work sent over email?

I am looking for 5 motivated, purpose driven people this month who I can train to build an International business like I have from home.
I am with an 18 year old global home-based business in the exploding industry which has over 1 million associates & growing, 70 patents, easy duplicable system in 20 countries including USA, no deliveries, work around your own families commitments, full training, travel holiday incentives to be won, a rewarding business that makes a difference in other people's lives.... As well as your own.
I have been earning a fortnightly residual income for 14 yrs now and have been on 6 x trips to USA & visited Disneyland, also holiday at huge resort in Cancun in Mexico & climbed the ancient Myan pyramids and went to Beijing to climb The Great Wall of China which I never thought was possible! I live in Australia. I began this business 14 yrs ago when my disabled daughter was 2 yrs old and had no money.

It Works! Skinny wraps are a huge hit! Everyone is loving them and they are producing some amazing results! They help to tone, tighten, and firm the skin, and a fun side effect is inch loss.Results are seen in as little as 45 minutes, with maximum results seen after 3days. It is not water weight that you lose, so the results are long lasting,usually about 2-6 months. The wraps work each time they are used, and the moreyou wrap, the more results you will see. Wraps can be applied to any area of the body you want to see results on- tummy,back, arms, legs, neck, chin, breasts, or butt. We even have a specific facialwrap designed to soften fine lines and wrinkles, and give you a mini facelift for a more youthful appearance! You can get a box of 4 for $99 as a retail customer. You can also get a box of 4 wraps for $59 as a loyal customer and receive distributor pricing on every product we have. Let me know if you want more info on this.Let me know if you have any questions or if there is anything I can help you with!! ~ Ashley (919) 637-5028 www.SmoothMom.com



PS. If you are looking for extra income, it's only $99 to become a distributorright now. That comes with 4 wraps to get you started. We also have a RubyGuarantee going on right now where you can earn a guaranteed $599 in your first month. Let me know if you want more details on this. :)

I believe I have an opportunity which would be perfect for you. I work in my own business for Rodan+Fields Dermotologists, the creators of Proactive Solution. They have developed an anti-aging and sun damage skin care line. ( I am an attorney who wanted to work from home!) In any event, you can do this wherever you live and when you move, you will make more contacts to share the business with, which can be quite lucrative. Visit my website to learn more about the business and products. hennis.myrandf.biz

Hi Stefie! I too am a stay at home mom. My husband is a truck driver and is away from home A LOT! I love being a stay at home mom, it makes me feel good to know that I can be there for my kids whenever they need me, but I was missing something.... Something for ME..... I craved adult interaction, and a sense that I too was contributing to the finances of our home, not just managing them. I was introduced to this company during the summer of 2011 called Arbonne. After much debate concerns and worries and curiosity about Network Marketing, after meeting with the woman who introduced me to it and showed me the income potential, several times.... My husband and I decided that we were jumping in with both feet! Full steam ahead, and it has been a blessing ever since. The company is Arbonne International. I had tried the products before joining, and they were amazing, they do what they say they will do and are Pure, Safe, and Beneficial. Then I realized the tremendous income potential, and the fact that I can still be a stay at home mom and have the time leverage for my family with this company. In 2 months I made it to District Manager. I am just so in love with my job and the people I meet and the opportunities that it has afforded me and I am not even at the top level yet! So, I could go on and on, but I would much rather have a phone or skype conversation with you, get to know you, and quickly answer any questions you would have on the spot rather than email back and forth. So, if you are interested, please give me a call at 518-248-6797. I would be happy to answer all your questions concerns and curiosities. I think you would be available asset to the company being that you are already a successful business woman, and you clearly have a solid understanding of what it takes to be successful and still be able to care for your family efficiently.

I love what I do from home!!

I decided it was important for me to stay at home and work so I can always be there for my daughter during the most important years of her childhood. I also needed to make a supportive income while ideally not having to sell, stock, take orders, do deliveries, or deal with payments. www.workathomeunited.com/yanika has given me everything I had hoped for, plus free training and the essential tools to a successful business. I feel so privileged to be a part of it! We are always looking for people to join our team, so if your interested in working from home for a simple yet reliable company, I would love to get you all the details about our team and business.

Hello Stefie,



I saw your post a couple of days ago, and I did not respond, because I only had limited time.  I saw it again today and read your challenges and I thought I would post a response.  In reading your other responses, you may well have found the answers that you seek in a home business.  I can say that the search for the right business can be long, but when you find the right one, you will be content.   I do encourage you to:



1.  Keep an open mind



2. Keep a TIGHT pocketbook



3.  Have FAITH in you, and your gut!



Good luck.



Gloria

Hi
I have 3 small children, Home school and am an Air Force wife. I researched long and hard for a work at home job. I really wanted to contribute to my family and keep my kids with me during the day. So I did lots of research and I found a great career! I recently have come across a home-based business opportunity with no large investment, no inventory and no risk. It is an Inc. 500 manufacturing company. I work from home with a company that manufactures products that we're already buying elsewhere, but they are better, safer & healthier. We just help set up customer accounts and the company pays us to do so. It has benefited our family so much! I never have to leave my house to be successful! If you would like some more information, please feel free to ask me about how I made it happen for my family! I would love to share the information about our company! I think if you hear all the details about working for this company it will make so much sense to you. 

If you would like some additional info. please go to my website at :

This is somethign you can do and feel proud doing it. Helping women feel pretty have self confidence with beautiful jewelry that is AFFORDABLE... Read below about Cookie Lee and let me know if I can answer any questions for you..





Top 20 Questions About Cookie Lee Fine Fashion Jewelry



What is Cookie Lee? California’s best kept secret! Cookie Lee is a line of fine fashion jewelry that started in Orange County, California in 1992. In 1985 Cookie began by taking a shoebox full of jewelry to her job, selling to co-workers and friends as a hobby. In 1992, she hired her first consultant, Katherine Chrisman, and the dream became a reality. Cookie and her husband, John Lin, sold to their consultants from their home in Culver City until the business outgrew the house and they made the move to Irvine, California, where the original showroom is now located.



How “ground level” is this opportunity? As of February 2005 there were only 42,000 Cookie Lee consultants nationwide. On average, around 15,000 consultants place orders each month, this is a huge opportunity for you. Retail sales at Cookie Lee Jewelry has gone from $1.8 million in 2001 and soared to over $104 million in 2004, making this the fastest growing direct sales company in the United States!! In 2005, the company sales were over $120 million.



Can I start with no money? Absolutely! Pass the catalog around and collect $325 or more in orders and I can help you get started.



How can I sell? Most of my business is done through home shows, office shows, catalog shows and fundraisers. Cash and carry allows me to sell at holiday boutiques, arts and crafts fairs and festivals!! Basically, anywhere you can set up a booth!



Presentations? NO PRESENTATIONS!! No 3 ring binders to pass out. No flip charts or elaborate displays to carry. No scripts to memorize. No presentation means NO PRESENTATION!! Cookie Lee shows are very unique. A typical home show may start at 7:00 pm and end at 9:00 pm. The hostess serves light snacks and is encouraged to stay out of the kitchen and try jewelry on with her friends!! Everyone tries on jewelry and leaves with their purchases!! The invitation even reads, “stay 5 minutes or the whole time!! No presentations. No games. No quizzes!!”



Quotas? No monthly or quarterly sales quotas. You only need to purchase $300 wholesale a YEAR to remain active.



Average prices? Our average price range is between $12 and $38, with a few higher end pieces. Don’t let the price fool you- the jewelry is very well made!!



What comes in the starter kit? You are the one that will customize your jewelry showcase. You select your own first order and base it on your tastes and the tastes of your friends that you will be showing the jewelry to. Nothing sells better than what you enjoy wearing!! I can also provide you a list of my current best sellers.



Minimum purchase? No monthly minimums. Can I order just one pair of earrings at a time? YES!!



Guaranteed? The jewelry is 100% guaranteed against manufacturers defects for one year. If a stone falls out, a clasp breaks or something comes undone, simply return it to me.







Can I give discounts to family and friends? This is your business and you can give discounts to whomever you wish. You make 50% PROFIT each time you sell. If you choose to sell to family and friends at your cost, that is up to you!! Personal Shoppers are those who choose not to do shows and sell, but rather sign up to buy wholesale for her family and friends.

Orders? Most of my business is cash and carry. I sell more when customers see more. Touch it, feel it, wear it, take it!! Who doesn’t love instant gratification? I also do catalog shows and fundraisers. Orders usually take no more than a week to fill. If you do not live near a showroom, orders will take about 2 weeks to fill.



How many shows per month? Our company does not dictate how many shows you need to do. You are your own boss. The only requirement made of each consultant is to purchase $300.00 wholesale PER YEAR to remain active. You can do as much or as little as you like. This company is MOM and Working Woman friendly!!



Current jewelry? Our jewelry stays current with the fashion industry and we have a variety of jewelry that suits all different tastes, styles and age ranges. We have a brand new catalog with almost 400 new items every January and August. Sample Club and What’s Next also offer new jewelry each month that is not published in the catalog.



Who will train me? I will personally train you. There is a library of training CD’s, phone conferences, 2nd Saturday and New Consultant trainings held across the country. Our national convention is held in August in Anaheim, California.



How much can I make? The amount of money you make is entirely up to you. It is based on your effort and willingness to work this business. Your net profit from the sale of the jewelry is 50% and from that amount you will subtract your business costs.



Do you have territories? NO. However we do practice the Cookie Lee Golden Rule, which means you should always ask if someone else has had a show with another consultant before booking that show. Our company encourages only one consultant per event/show.



Commission checks? Cookie Lee also rewards its consultants with commission based on the sales of those they recruit. Unlike many other direct sales companies, our commission checks are published with pride to show the potential growth and to encourage and motivate other consultants to reach for the stars!!



Other benefits? Cookie Lee rewards its consultants with Successorize Points, which can be redeemed for supplies and tools for your business; Dream Getaway Trip Points, which can be accumulated to earn an all inclusive trip to a fabulous destination. This year consultants are going to the beach-front Hilton Village and Spa in Waikiki, Hawaii.



Is this a pyramid? NO. This is a direct sales company. Cookie Lee belongs to the reputable Direct Selling Association. The Association's mission is "To protect, serve and promote the effectiveness of member companies and the independent business people they represent. To ensure that the marketing by member companies of products and/or the direct sales opportunity is conducted with the highest level of business ethics and service to consumers."

Hi Stefie. I replied to another mum on another community and thought I'd send the same message to you in case you are still looking.
I am only looking for 18 women (preferably mums) to join me - I already have two.
I came across a website that builds lists for internet marketing purposes. To be honest, that wasn't something that excited me too much as I don't know what I'd do with the list. Anyway, what was really exciting was the way they do this legally and successfully and at the same time pay out huge amounts to it's recruits for a one-time sign up fee of US$10 + US$2 admin. This is, as I said, a one-time only fee and then the sky is the limit. I won't go in to the whole thing here but if you are interested please let me know. I have designed my own website at www.ksleep.webs.com and that should give you most of the detail but feel free to ask me anything. There is no limit to how many people I can "sign-up" but I am looking for 20 really great women to help me in my quest for success on this. For me it will me giving up my part-time job, sending the kids to private school and buying a house that I have my eye on. I know it can work and if you feel excited about this too then join me. Cheers, Kirsty

My name is Kris, I am a sahm that works from home with a health and wellness company. I love it because I can stay at home with my family while also making a substantial amount of money and telling people about safer, environment friendly products. There is a one time low cost fee of $29 for your training and business kit and it also gives you 30-40% off on their products. The company and it's products are so great that there is a 95% monthly reorder rate. The company has pretty much everything from kitchen to kids and everything in between!! This business is risk free (that being the main reason why I joined) if you are not satisfied with the way your business is going or your products you simply get your money back (it's really that simple). That being said, there isn't any inventory, deliveries, parties, etc. so basically no hassle. If this has sparked your interest please contact me here or at krisdenise136@yahoo.com or give me a call at (205) 447 6722

Great business plan with regular bonuses,car bonuses & promos to help maximize your income. You obviously have a good business sense, I'm confident you would be a huge success with this & the income potential is limitless. Very rewarding as you would be helping others to have a healthier, safer home. If you are interested in learning more, feel free to contact me.
