So...You Want to Stay at Home (Part 3)

So, You've Decided to take a Leap of Faith 

How Does Your Future Look?

And now it's time to build your wings on the way down.  There are some things you need to decide:

·  What things you like: This will determine what kind of company you choose and I really do hope you choose mine.

· How much money you wish to make: This will determine whether you stay on your job and work on your business as a hobby or part time OR if you can leave your job and work on your business full time.

· How many hours you wish to work: again your considerations are Hobby, Part Time or Full Time. And..Will the Benefits outweigh any perceived risk?

· Can I really do this, Do I have what it takes? Of course you can do this. Do you consider yourself friendly? Are you a good talker? Are you confident? If the answeres to any of these questions is yes... you can do this and do this well.

Are Your Wings Built?

Have you determined what you like? If you love beautiful things in your home, you may want to choose a business which sells candles and home decor. If you love clothing and accessories, you may want to choose a clothing or purse company or anyone of the many jewelry companies. If you like to take care of your skin and use make-up, then you may want  to choose to become a consultant with Mary Kay  (or some of the other skin care and self care companies). Not sure?

Another factor to deciding to join a direct sales company is time and money. How much time are you willing to work.  To make money doing a business like Mary Kay, you have to sell a product. That product is Skin Care and Color Cosmetics, Fragrances and Body Care Products. These are products which are needed in the everyday lives  of woman. To sell this product you would have to do, what is called, a "party". Generally speaking 1 party a week will take approximately 11/2 to 21/2 hours. On average a consultant will have at least 4 people at that party. The company average for a party is approximately $250 - $400.(As per some Mary Kay Literature) But consider this - Some women make more! 

Can You Get Excited?

The one thing you will have in your favor is Enthusiasm! And we all know that the last four letters are - IASM - I am sold myself.  So, you are now armed with Confidence, Enthusiasm and a "List" of direct selling companies. Now it's Time to make your decision.  I do understand that perhaps you may want to consult your husband or a family member and truly that is great. It is always good to have a second opinion. But let me share this with you; A Confused Mind Does Nothing. I would suggest One thing: That you RATE your intention.

• Research - You read the company literature of the company you are considering carefully and you do your research. Nothing is more effective in making a decision than doing your due diligence. 
• Ask - Ask members of the sales force of the company you are considering, what you really want to know. Visit a sales force meeting or a selling opportunity. And ask plenty of questions.
• Try the Product - Let's face it. Shouldn't you experience the product first hand to know if you could  (or should) sell the product? 
• Evaluate - Evaluate and consider your research, your experience with the sales force and your experience with the product. Your gained knowledge is a tangible guide to help you make your final decision.

So... Do You Still Want to Stay at Home?   

You Decide. Are You Going to Stay At Home?

You can you know. All it takes is making a decision and following others who have gone before you. You won't be alone and you will have help along the way.  The only way you can fail is if you don't try. So, are you going to start a direct sales business so that you too can stay at home? You owe it to yourself to try.
