I need a new source of income. My husband is creating a new law firm so I need to get back into work mode. I'd like to do from home. Any home party/business gigs anyone can suggest?

Hi Robin,

I just moved to Mundelein from California. If your are into scrapbooking, Creative Memories is a wonderful business. I have been selling Creative Memories for almost one year, I might need to quit though because with just moving out here I don't have a new clientele base. Let me know if you would like more information.

Congratulations to you and your husband. Starting a new law practice can be tough and I commend you for doing what it takes to help him.

I am a Tastefully Simple consultant and loving it! If you are not familiar with it, please check out my website at: http://hqol.tastefullysimple.com/wc.dll?TSI~VisitOffice~&...

I looked around for a long time on adding another source of income to our family and this has been a great decision. The minimums per quarter are low, the discount is good to be able to use the products at home and it's food. The stuff sells itself. The company is also very good at providing you the resources that you need to make it happen.

Please feel free to contact me if you would like further information.

Best wishes,
N.

I'm looking for work also. Someone recently suggested Mary Kay. The girl I met over the weekend has earned several cars. It is not for me but if you are interested in talking with her let me know. She is super nice!
I'm actually looking for work as a paralegal. I have been out of that field since my pregnacy, it was a really rough one. If you husband needs an assistant I have alot of experience and I'd be happy to email him my resume. Good luck with the work from home gig. I've been helping friends as a fill in nanny lately. Maybe that might work for you.

Hi R. -

I recently just left my job in advertising to be a stay-at-home mom and have found Baby Splendor to be a nice source of extra income. I'm an Independent Consultant for them -- they're similar to Tupperware and Pampered Chef where all of the products are fun, innovative baby and kids items! All of the products are sold through home parties or catalog/web sales. Take a peek at the products at my website -- www.susiemaryellen.mybabysplendor.com. The new spring/summer line just came out and the products are adorable!

If you decide to become a consultant, you earn a minimum of 25% commission on all of your sales. There are no monthly minimums or sales quotas. The products are fantastic (I use practically all of them with my 9-month old son) and they sell themselves. I can provide you with more information if you're interested in learning more. You can e-mail me at ____@____.com.

Hi R.

I started a MaryKay business a couple years ago while working full-time. The income potential of my business made it possible for me to stay home with my 9-mos and 2 1/2 y.o.

Before deciding on MK, I checked into a couple of other opportunities. I am happy to share what I learned and my experiences with you if you are interested.

Kind Regards

C.

R.-
I have a home based business that would be perfect for you as an esthetician. We are a european health and wellness company that focuses on skin care products. It is a well established company (27 years old) and has a GREAT compensation plan. There is a TON of training and support and we get to work with women and advise women on their skin. I am very serious about my business and would love to share it with you, but my time is very limited. I only work 15 hours per week so I can spend the rest with my little girl (she is 6 months today!). If you are interested please visit my website to get a little info and then we can meet and talk. Again, I'd love to work with you as an esthetician but I take serious inquries only, call me if you would like more information.
Smiles,

As a consultant you earn 35% of your sales, plus when you make the next level, you start getting paychecks directly from Arbonne as well. If you are interested, I can get more info to you.
