December 19th, 2008 -- Posted in Carbon Copy Pro, Home Business Ideas, Misc Ranting, Wealth Strategies | 2 Comments »

I think many people who respond to home based business opportunities are actually looking for a j.o.b. and not looking to be in business for themselves.
Here’s a few of the differences (in my opinion)….

A home based job and those looking for one:

  • Something you do for someone else, and they dictate your time, method of completion and compensation
  • This person usually wants to take no monetary risk and wants a guarantee that they will see a "return on investment" (ROI) within a matter of weeks
  • This person usually continue reading »

"87% of Americans believe that women will experience age discrimination at some point in their lives"

"Women think age discrimination begins at age 43 for themselves and at age 47 for men"

According to the Equal Employment Opportunity Commission (EEOC), age based complaints are up about 21% from 10 years ago. Elizabeth Grossman, an attorney with EEOC’s New York office says, "People are living longer and wanting to work longer. But quite a few employers resist keeping these employees on their payroll past a certain point." They also are saying that applicants over 50, continue reading »

Direct Selling Offers Flexibility and Financial Freedom

August 14th, 2008 -- Posted in Carbon Copy Pro, Home Business Ideas, Retirement, Wealth Strategies | 3 Comments »

I came across a great article in Success magazine (click the link to read it all) ….. here’s an excerpt.

Jim Cramer, host of CNBC’s Mad Money, is bullish on direct selling , especially during a slowing economy. “Direct selling is a great model…with high gross margins, low capital intensity, lots of free cash flow,” he said on a recent show. “It’s a fragmented industry with gigantic room for growth . The top 15 players only account for about half the market.”

Amy M. Robinson, Direct Selling Association Vice President of Communications and Media Relations, points out that, while many people seek additional income during lean economic times, “in all honesty, direct selling is hot because it’s a fun, convenient way to shop that people enjoy . So, poor economic times or not, people find direct selling to be appealing. Great products, personal service and income potential are elements of direct selling that make it a strong economic contender at all times.”

“People motivated to get started in direct selling typically share certain attributes,” she says. “Most seek supplemental income , either short-term or long term. The social aspect also is appealing for those who love to meet new people and many enjoy buying products and services they already use—at a discount.”

With a direct selling business opportunity you can: Join an industry where business is booming and there’s always room at the top. Direct selling, sometimes referred to as network marketing, is a $32 billion industry in the United States and a $110 billion industry worldwide. The millions of individuals building direct selling businesses determine for themselves when they want to move up the career ladder and exactly how high they want to climb.

Leave a comment on your experiences with Direst Sales…. :-)
