Honest Parenting

An honest business that I found a year ago is called MonaVie. It is a business opportunity based on relationship marketing, something that is very easy to do at home, or on the internet. The business is in the health and wellness industry, and offers a nutritional beverage that can help people feel healthier and more energetic. Because people are becoming more and more concerned with matters to do with health and wellness, this is a great company to start a business with.

Honestly having a lucrative home based business does not happen over night. It takes time to build something successful just as if you opened a traditional business. There are several factors to consider also – training, strong support, a proven system for success, a good compensation plan that works for you instead of the company and reasonable Policies and Procedures.

There are also different types… the party plan type where you have to go out and find people to host parties and those that you don’t.

I have done both and though party plans pay the night of the party (if you have sales – and I had parties where there were no sales), but you are constantly beating the bushes for new hostesses, new recruits. Some party plans even have requirements that you recruit a certain number or knew people each month. I find that too much pressure and emphasis on the wrong concept.

Other type of home based businesses, ones that seem to work the best are product driven, but you don’t have to have parties, tote inventory around, take orders or money from people, hope their checks don’t bounce, etc… However, you are normally paid on an accrued amount of sales, either weekly bi-weekly or monthly dependent on the compensation plan.

I wrote a blog about advice for working from home. It’s NOT a commercial advertisement for anything I am in, just straight from the hip info I learned along the way in finding something legit that works for me. The blog will help you learn how to search out information BEFORE you get in, some suggestions on things that WON’T work, etc. Also, if you are interested in reading it, please be aware that I make NO recommendations of the ads that the forum places on my page. They are put their randomly and I have no control over the ads. You can find a link in the 2nd paragraph of my profile here on answers.

The best home business that you can be sure is not a scam is one that you start yourself. It will depend on what you want, how you define to be interesting. A person may consider a pet sitting business to be the most exciting work in the world, while another person would rather watch TV than take care of dogs.

The key is to determine what your interests are, what you want to do, what is suitable for your lifestyle and your overall goals, and what can fit with your resources.

Dan Ramsey in his book “101 Best Home Businesses” has a chapter on how to find YOUR best home business. He suggests these 10 steps:

1. List 5 things you do best
2. List how others would benefit from what you do best
3. Find out how to give people what they want
4. Learn the value of your services to others
5. Find out who else offers similar services
6. Learn from the successes of others
7. Learn from the failures of others
8. Plan your own success
9. Make low cost mistakes
10. Enjoy what you do and how you do it

He then made suggestions on the best home businesses according to type. Here are a few of them:

Best Businesses Using Craft or Physical Skills
- antique restoration
- auto detail service
- carpet cleaning business
- errand/delivery service
- housecleaning business
