Looking for Work from Home Options?
In today's hard economic times many of us are looking for a second or third revenue stream. In many cases one income is just not enough!
Even professional families or executive Moms and Dads are seeking ways to earn extra money, but do not want it to interfere with what they are currently doing.
What is the right choice for honest people looking for a business? Multi-level Marketing (MLM) or network marketing? Do you have to invest a lot of money when starting a home business? What are the pros and cons to the different options?
The good news is there are home based businesses that don't require you to carry a box of samples door to door or make repeated sales presentations. There are options that are based on a good business model that does not depend on how many people you sign up each month or if you can talk them into becoming a premium rather than basic member.
Even executives, professionals and families with traditionally good jobs can benefit from a second income stream and do it with pride, but not all opportunities are what they seem to be and that is what this column is all about, helping you make an informed decision.
I invite you to check out my new blog that will discuss many topics on being a Mom and working from home.

Five Home Business Lies Uncovered
When working from home there are 5 key lies that are not made clear when choosing the right business. This short article will go over these and explain why they are critical on making your decision on a home business.1. Do you need a car or drive a lot?2. Do I need to stock inventory?
Some businesses require you to keep an inventory or act as the middle man to deliver the goods to your customers. This an mean significant expense and space to store it. Not to mention often playing into consideration #1, needing a vehicle to deliver it.
3. How much money do I have to invest to get started?
Not all businesses have the same startup capital requirements. Some will ask for thousands of dollars and even have levels you can buy into to attain certain statuses. Others will ask pretty much for the cost of their startup materials. So this can range from a small fee of around $29 for one company to about as much money as you can give them. I do not recommend anyone pay a lot for getting started in a home business, myself.
4. What is the ongoing cost?
Consider how much money will be needed to continue the home business venture. Some will make you pay for very expensive training materials. Others will demand you buy huge dollar values of juice or products. If there is any product commitment is the product actually fairly priced? Can the product stand on its own value without the hype?
5. Can they prove how much you will make?
We have all seen the claims that you will make thousands of dollars in no time, but can they prove it? Do they have audited statements of the typical representative? A honest venture will have nothing to hide, while many of these get rich quick schemes will not be able to show the real income earned. Be careful here, some will inflate the checks of the leaders only to claw back a big chunk of the money. This makes the check big but after expenses makes the net pay pretty low.
So how do you find a business that is honest about these issues? I have done a lot of looking and have some thoughts to share. Contact me and I would love to give you a 20 minute free consult on this topic.
Why work from home?
Travel Tax Advantages
Q. How can I write off travel?A. People who own a home based business have many write-offs that employed or retired people do not have. They can write off a portion of their home, utilities and car expenses along with other items. Accountants often suggest this route to reduce taxes and increase overall wealth.
Q. I need MORE INCOME, not more write-offs. What have you got for me?
A. We have a proven home-based business opportunity where people from all walks of life have succeeded. If you like helping people, are trainable and have from 4 to 40 hours a week, you can learn to make a better than average income that provides an ongoing residual income.
Q. Is this a risky business?
A. I have tried several different work from home ventures and none of them have been as safe as this one. The company has been around for over 20 years and growing every single year. They provide a real money back guarantee and the start up costs are minimal, typically being around $29 for your business kit. Most of your work is done from home, so no commute is required and you receive world class training and international support at no cost.
Q. This sounds too good to be true. Is this for real?
A. We are honest hard working people like you. We are not looking for people trying to take advantage of others, but those that want to help others help themselves. In our organization there is a high number of people with strong corporate and marketing backgrounds and therefore making contact with you makes perfect sense to us and you!
Q. What countries can I travel too?
A. We are expanding worldwide. Markets exist in countries around the world. We have a team of people that have heritage from many countries around the world so we are focusing on this market right now along with right here at home. Your friends here and abroad can really benefit from our type of business.

Residual Income Advantage
Q. What is residual income?A. It is when you do something once and continue to make money afterwords without needing to repeat the process.
Q. What is the big deal about a home business that creates residual income?
A. There are very few opportunities that provide an ongoing stream of income without a lot of effort to repeat a sale. One such home business is Insurance Sales, but in order to do this you need to be accredited and undergo rather involved training. Wouldn't it be nice to do something once and make money for this month after month without needing to keep working so hard to get the repeat sale? As your business builds your residual income grows with it.
Q. Is this a pyramid scheme?
A. No, absolutely not. Pyramid or Ponzi schemes are based on selling something that does not have any real value. These schemes take advantage of people that are last to sign up and inevitably people get hurt. Our model is based on products and services that are actually less expensive than most competitors and does not have some crazy high cost sign up fee. We are creating potentially life long relationships and work very ethically.
Working a Home Based Business for Charity
Many of people that work a home based business do not do so because they have to or need the income. A popular reason for many of them to work hard at something like this is to better support the charity they are involved in. This can be a very fulfilling feeling being able help support the cause that they are passionate about or even take on new charities.
Many retired people love this idea. It gives them something to be passionate about and work hard for and the satisfaction of being able to donate 100s, 1000s or more to some very worthy causes.
