Work from Home Avon

Excellent article by Melody Schafer, national recruiter for Avon



If you have been looking for a work at home business opportunity, you may want to look for an opportunity where you can work online, with little start-up cost, no inventory, free online training, free web store for your customers, and whatever else may be on your list of important credentials to meet your needs in finding that perfect fit for you and your family.
The economy has been in the dumps for a few years now, good paying jobs are difficult or impossible to find and working for someone else, definitely is not the answer in reaching our dreams, especially without jeopardizing the time we want to have, so we can spend more time with our families.
Being one's own boss has more to do with freedom than it has to do with money. Being your own boss allows you to spend more time with your family, allows you to go places and do things you normally couldn't if you were checking in and out of a 9-5 job.
Set your own schedule so you can work as little or as much as you want, and WHEN you want. You are your own boss, so how much you make will be up to you. Do you want a raise? Give yourself a raise by doing the things that need to be done to grow your business?
Think you are too busy to have your own business? Think again. Many work at home businesses can be worked COMPLETELY online, so all you have to do is get your customers to your website that may be provided to you, or one that you create yourself. Many businesses, such as direct sales companies or affiliate programs are fairly simple to do online.  All you have to do is get customers to your web store and the company handles the payments, orders and shipping. All you have to do is collect your paycheck or direct deposit to your bank account.
There are other options, such as owning your own web store on e-bay, Amazon, Etsy, Artfire and so many other well known sites where you can post items that you either make or are re-selling. With this type of business you either can carry the inventory in your own home and ship to customers OR use dropshipping, if it is available, for the product you sell.

I will be writing future articles breaking down the pros and cons of using dropshippers versus carrying inventory and shipping items yourself, versus finding a company, such as a direct sales organization to work with, and other choices you may have.
Remember, being your own boss, is about freedom. With freedom comes great responsibility. You must use your time wisely and to also remember working from home is not a "get rich scheme". This will take time and lots of patience. You will have failures along with success in your venture. If you want to succeed, the one thing you should remember is: "NEVER GIVE UP".
