My son was very handsome even as a young baby. He definitely had my brown eyes, but had the physique of my husband. It's funny how children develop as they grow up. One of the things which I felt was unusual about him was how detailed he was. When he had all his star wars figurines lined up, he would notice if a little sword was missing. I have very sweet memories of his first few years because I was a stay-at-home mom. A person who can find work for stay at home moms is very fortunate, especially if the income derived is significant and plays an important role in providing the extras that many families desire. The work for stay at home moms I found, was in party plan. I started out as a Fashion Show Director for Sarah Coventry, Inc. and was promoted to District Manager when the manager at that time moved several states away.
Staying at home was important to me. My husband had a job as a police officer, with varying schedules. Therefore, by being able to stay at home, I was able to adjust my schedule to meet the needs of my family. By not having to punch a time clock, I was allowed to sleep late if I wanted, take my time in everything I did, and also be able to be there for every milestone my son reached. It was a sweet time in my life, as I look back on it now.
My career with Sarah Coventry allowed me to also be gone several evenings a week. Those are the times when my husband could baby sit, thereby saving the costs of a baby sitter. This time also brought my son closer to his Dad. I loved Sarah Coventry and soon grew a group of over 25 Fashion Show Directors and 5 Unit Directors. I loved the competition and striving to win trips offered by the company (trips to Miami, Washington D.C., Pine Isle, Paradise Island, Bahamas, Miss Georgia Pageant...and several other trips). In fact, the first time my husband and I were away from my son was when he was two years old; we went on a cruise to the Bahamas on the Sunward II.
Many women cannot find work for stay at home moms or cannot find work which pays enough. I believe many parents should sit down and analyze the cost they are paying to have the mom work. Often, they will find that they are paying for the wife to work. After paying the cost of a sitter, wardrobe, gas, auto and auto expenses, tax increase; a family will find that it is to their advantage for a mom to stay at home and raise her child herself instead of rushing over to a babysitter. Taking a child out when they are half way sick or in cold weather, or any negative situation is a pull on the emotions. Often, a job often takes so much energy that when a mom arrives back home, she cannot be the type of mother she really wants to be.
I loved my job because it was flexible and allowed me to stay with my son. Many times, a person works because they think they have no choice, I want to say--in life, there are always choices. There is always another way other than striving to work in an environment where you will never be paid your true worth.
I am no longer a stay-at-home mom (my son is grown), but I remember the feeling of satisfaction and security I derived when I worked from home with a job which allowed me to work around my family's schedule. My advice again is to calculate the cost of your working, including the tax advantages which are allotted for having a home based businesses.
My son's formative years were spent with me. For that I am thankful. I was able to give him my own values instead of his learning them from a sitter or not even learning values at all. My daughter-in-law is also a stay-at-home mom and works from her home office, carrying on the family tradition of working from home. She, along with my son, operate a website for moms http://www.gentlemoms.com/.
Due to the advent of the Internet, many opportunities have presented themselves especially for people who are looking for work for stay at home moms.
Sometimes a person must ask themselves the question whether it is worth it to work for someone else. What are the long-term benefits of working for someone else? Most people will find when they are honest with themselves that they are working to put food on the table and to meet present needs.
One of my favorite things about working from home was being able to prepare wholesome meals for my family and being able to take my time. Hope you enjoy this video.
There is little long-term benefits in working for someone else, because there is no residual income. Residual income is derived when you have the opportunity to gain income for work you did before, and the income keeps coming in no matter what you do.
Sarah Coventry was a direct sales company. Some of the income I derived was like that in a sense, because I had hostesses who would take a catalog and get orders for me every time a new catalog came out. But this was not true residual income, because I was having to go through certain actions in order to have the income. I had to pick up the orders and write up the orders. True residual income requires no acton in order to receive the income.
One such opportunity to receive residual income is network marketing. People who are not familiar with network marketing may not understand the concept of network marketing. The concept is that a product or products is sold through a distribution channel which allows the company to distribute without the cost of advertising. The company uses the money which would have been originally intended for advertising and passes it on to the distributors.
One such company is the company I now work for, GBG. The reason I like the product which we offer is because it is a product which almost everyone is using anyway. They only have to change their way of purchasing. Instead of getting their product from a store, they can now purchase it from the company at a cost of less than what they would pay from the store. Therefore, there is a win-win situation involved with the company. They can count the cost of distribution and therefore be able to stay in business. Many people or businesses find that when they stop advertising, their business stops or dwindles. With a distribution source as found in network marketing, a company can stay in business because they do not have to advertise.
I have tried many sales opportunities, including cosmetics, jewelry, home decorating accessories, as well as sold large ticket items on the road (average sales of over $13,000), so I know what's out there. Being ambitious, has its pros and cons. When people are ambitious and not afraid of failure, they will keep trying until they find the right vehicle for success. The secret is once you've found the right vehicle and you have learned from your previous mistakes or learned from mistakes made by others -- keep on keeping on. Do not give up. You see others in line who have received significant income, do not---let me repeat: do not get out of line; your time is coming up. You must attach yourself to a mentor who can teach you what to do to be successful. Let the Holy Spirit of God be your guide, and you will not fail.
Delight thyself also in the LORD: and he shall give thee the desires of thine heart. Psalms 37:4 (KJV)
In all thy ways acknowledge him, and he shall direct thy paths. Proverbs 3:6 (KJV)
In all thy ways acknowledge him, and he shall direct thy paths. Proverbs 3:6 (KJV)
I have been told by well-intentioned people to not tell about my company in my blog. How could I do that? I'm not ashamed of my company. I've been around the block in network marketing, and I decided if I found the right company, I would broadcast it, and that's what I'm doing. We have the most dynamic product with the most amazing compensation plan I have ever been affiliated with. The entry level is affordable for the masses (under $50), so why would I even think about keeping it "secret?"
For all the moms who are earnestly seeking work for stay at home moms, GBG is the perfect network marketing opportunity on the planet. Analyze your situation and ask yourself if this might be something you can implement into your family. If this does not meet your requirements and you have an outside job you love, then GBG could be a secondary income for your family, especially when both parents are involved.
Do you want to have the things for your family that they need and desire? There may even be things for yourself that you want, but you feel you have to sacrifice your own desires for the good of your family. Let me tell you, with the right training with GBG, you may find that sacrifice is not a necessity. Your success will be determined by your attitude, work ethic and perseverance. With a 14-year track record as a company, internet presence and the fact that we are going global in just a few months, the timing is excellent. Jump on in. Do not be afraid. There is no risk, and you even have a 60-day (100% money back guarantee on the product).
