I'm a project manager and I do work at home. My kids go to daycare because I don't feel I can give them the attention they need while working from home full time.

I sell lia sophia which is a direct sales company.  I do very well and have a great time doing it.  I get to get out of the house and be with other women.  lia sophia is a high quality fashion jewelry company.  If you are interested in jewelry at all please feel free to contact me: www.liasophia.com/kristafox.



With that said, if you are not looking for that type of company, I know there are companies out there that are looking for people to do administrative work at home.  Also, some of the cable companies (direct TV) have their customer care people that work from home.  There is a website called cafemom.com and they have a section for people who want to work from home. 



I truly love lia sophia.  It's a great, financially solid company.  It's not expensive to start ($149 plus shipping and tax) and you don't have to recruit if you choose not too.  Good luck in whatever you are looking for!

Hi, About a year ago I wanted to stay home and be with my kids more. I was tired of working for someone else. I also wanted to show my kids the fun and wonderful areas all over the world. In my husbands and mine search we found a company called YTB. With a low sign up cost (less than $500, and only $49.00 monthly maintance fee) you can own your own online travel booking site. This site is just like (or in my opinion better than) orbits or expedia. It is fully oporational, and you have staff support for customer service. So basically you tell people about your site they book their flights, hotels, car rentals, cruises and much more through you site and you get 60% of the commission. There are also so many other travel benifits and education that comes with this company. It helps me feel confident in selling and promoting this company. Truely, though it's not a hard sale, most people really enjoy to travel and would love to hear about good deals. I know that direct sales, and networking isn't for everyone. If you interested take a look that the following website. If it's not what your looking for I understands, and hopefully you find something that will work for you. In these economic times it's hards to fell safe at any job. That's why I want to own my own business then nobody else can fire me ,but me.



http://www.traveltime.webs.com/ if you go to this web site I have more details as well as videos regarding this company.



I love the idea of staying at home. Being in the travel industry works for me. I know you have several options available to you.



If you have any more questions I would love to explain more to you, you may email me at mel_mom_of.3@hotmail.com, or call me at 208-638-5557, or just register on my web site and let me know. Thanks have a great day.

I do a Direct Sells business and most of the time work it out of my home.  It is work, you don't just sit there and think people are going to knock down the door for your product.  You do need to apply yourself.  It is for a Dual Marketing Company, not a MLM.  You don't purchase at one price and your recruiter at another one.  Some people do go out to do their sales, but others have their clients come to their home for facials and to pick up orders.  It is your business, you do it the way you want, but you have others in the business to help you when you need help, you are not by yourself.  We are also the highest paid commission Direct Sales in the USA and have been in business since 1963.



I was able to take care of my darling Mother for 8 months around the clock and still make money!



There are jobs that you can do from home, my DIL did Medical Transcriptions for a while.  She had to go to college to get a degree to do this, then had to work thru someone else who had the accounts.  They were running into lots of the work being outsourced to foreign countries (yes even this!)  She had to purchased expensive equipment to do this, and had to really concentrate to get things done, not play with the kids while making money.



She is now running a medical office at a hospital 



There are other companies that allow their employees to do some of their work at home, but usually you have to work at the office first to prove yourself.



Then, there are the scams, stuff envelopes, do surveys, etc, most of which you do not make money.



If you are interested in hearing more about how you can make money in Direct Sales and work for a reputable Company, I would love to talk with you.  You can also check out some actual success stories from my web site.

If you're in Michigan, I work from home for a great company! No start-up fees or products to buy and re-sell. 50% commission (usually $200-$400 per sale). There is actually very little 'selling' involved. The 'clients' that you visit are already interested in helping the local community, and are just looking for a physical person to 'put a face on the company.' The work is straight forward, and is 95% finding out more about the person and holding their hand while they fill out paperwork. If anyone's interested, let me know and I'll give you the HR contact, and they can send you an application.

I represent a company that is AWESOME I have not actually done anything with my business for the past 2 months and yet this week I still received a check in the mail for over 300.00 and if I really wanted to I could make that check grow HUGE....I have friends who get 2,000 up to several thousand EVERY MONTH.....I did another home based business for 5 years and I have made more with this Co. in 11 months than I did for 5 years with the other one. I love the fact that I do it ALL from my home and I DO NOT sell anything, carry NO inventory, and you can start this business with only a 29.00 investment. Or there is a special in January that you can get started for only 1.00 You can go to this site and learn more and then if you are interested in learning more please contact me to help you get started...It is strictly a referal business so you do have to go thru someone to get signed up and I would love to have you on my team.  www.prfishy@yahoo.com or call 937-545-3949

I'm a CPA working for a large international firm, and work almost exclusively from home (my kids still go to daycare per my agreement).  The jobs are out there, but without knowing your skill set it's hard to recommend something.

SCENTSY!  It doesn't require a lot of start up, only 99 dollars, and you get the benefits... The start up kit contains a warmer and wax and all the tools you need to sell the same wonderful items to people who are looking for it.  Just pass out catalogs and cards and people come to you.  I leave catalogs in waiting rooms (doctor's and dentist's offices) and leave cards with cashiers at the grocery stores, etc.  It sells itself.  Check it out!!!  http://www.scentsy.com/amybetterton

Hello Ladies!



I too am a stay at home mom.   I have spent years looking into and trying different work from home companies.  All seem to be that you have to sell - actually beg your family and friends to buy things they either can't afford of don't need.  My Mom said that she would rather give the cash, instead of buy the stuff, and having the company that was to be helping me earn money, actually taking most of it as "their cut".  This did not work for me or many others!



My very frugal Police Officer husband, found this company, and wanted me to get involved.  My first thought, was, "No way...I am not going to get myself into the unapproved by him, work from home thing again!:  I had learned my lesson and was not going to go there!



Because he was so impressed, I thought that maybe I will take a look and get some more information, with him by my side.  All though I was leary, the company and business plan was different from anything else I had seen or worked with.  This plan actually made sense for everyone! 



A little over a year later, we have been saving and earning money from day one, and it continues every month, because it is residual income.  We have also helped so many other families do the same.  Our companies mission statement is "Enhancing the lives of those we touch, by helping people reach their goals"



I do not sell, stock, deliver or inventory products, I do not collect money! 



NO huge investment!  NO new money!



I do all my business from home, never need a baby sitter!



Best of all!  There is absolutely NO RISK!!



I would love to share more information with anyone that would like to enhance your life and reach all of your goals!



Please contact me by phone 303-968-8858 or e-mail rsunshinemom@yahoo.com

So your looking to work for someone else from home?  Hmmm.  I've heard of companies who hire with flex-time...working part time in their offices and part time in your home...

I would love to know as well.!.  However, I do not want to  be a part of an "own your own business", sell things to people and pay a bunch of money to get started in something that requires taking my business to other people in hopes of selling it to others.  Blah blah blah, not into netwoork marketing.  Does anyone REALLY know of a legit job you can do from home?
