Does anyone know any "real" home based business for a stay at home Mom?

Ladybug,You could do child care (since you are in the mode) it's lucrative but "work"!Also sell things at an auction site - this is tricky as the jig is up and finding products is hard - and you buy in bulk.I suggest net work marketing. You find a product you and your family like and would use. Speak from the heart and gain customers (network family and friends)then you meet people who would likely join your team and be in to it too - it takes time. Low start up fee - Everyone says "oh, I can't sell" but most people sell them-self short. If you stick to it you will be surprised how successful you could be.

I have a really great and fun home-based business! It's so easy to talk to people about my products because they are all for dogs and cats. Everyone loves their pet and with the recent recalls of pet food, everyone is looking for a safe and healthy food. The amount you earn is dependent on the time you spend working on the business. The company, Trilogy, also has products for people and earth-friendly and pet friendly cleaning supplies. Our cat and dog food is formulated by a Holistic Veterinarian and does not contain any of the toxic materials found in most commercial pet food. Take a look: www.healthypetnet.com/gerriesmith.

If you are interested in working from home with a real company and you don't want to stock or sell an inventory, check out the organization I work with. Here is my website: http://www.momexecs.com/cgi-bin/team...&action=showWe are a group of individuals that work from home, most of us are stay at home mothers, and we earn an income every month with an established and legitimate company. The best part is, it is flexible, there is a team of people that will help you succeed and it doesn't have a large start up cost like many home based businesses. I have a 14 month old, and I'm able to work around his schedule and contribute to the family income while having a great time!Carol

Hi, I may have answered you before. I have made over $2,000 this past month with several different sites. It took a ton of researching to find them. If you are interested, please see my profile for more information, including proof that these sites pay. All of these sites are free to join.

Hi Ladybug!I started a home based business just over a year ago and I wish someone would have offered me this when my kids were younger. I missed my kids younger years.I am in a business that does not have a start up fee. (There are a few home based businesses that don't require a fee)You have your first party in your home and you earn your Starter Kit free (over $350 value). -No inventory unless you want it. -You stay home with your children during the day and you work when you want. You will get calls to order without having a show also. You do have to Love the product and believe in the product. Let me know if you need any additional information

Ah, how many times I wish someone would have had The answer to this question for me. Personally, though I have kids, I never wanted to do childcare in my home. It can be lucrative though and you get to be with your own children as well as them having in house playmates. I decided to take a passion of mine and find a way to make it a business. I am still working a 8-5 job but I am in the beginning stages of starting my own e-publishing house. It's hard work, but I love it. I would suggest the same for you. Internet businesses are, in my opinion, the best for working from home. You can work on your business when the kids are napping, on a play date or after the fall asleep for the night. At least that's what I do Anything you love can be made into a business. If you love fashion, you could start a designer "once loved" (used - lol) clothing store (on line or off). If you love to paint, you could offer a service where you will paint a portrait from a photo. You get the drift.In any business you must market, market, market.I wish you the best of luck and am putting some links you may find helpful.http://www.mommyjobs.com/http://www....ngtips.shtml(I LOVE LOVE this site. I bought the book used on amazon, but there is no need, he has a 9 year archive of little and no money marketing for businesses)http://sba.gov/smallbusinessplanner/...index.htmlJust wanted to add that I am starting my business for under 1,000 paid in bits and pieces over the course of my start up phase.
