How can I make money working at home?
Posted by admin under: Small Business .
I would love to be a stay at home mom but we can’t afford it. How would it be possible for me to be a stay at home mom but still make money? Half of the stay at home jobs are scams so I don’t know what to do, please help!

Half? More like 95%. I guarantee this page will fill will spam in the next 20 minutes.
Look, just think about what you’re asking. A company or person will only pay you money if you are providing something they need. You are very limited because you are only willing to provide that in one particular physical place. This is just like engineers who are not willing to travel generally having a harder time finding a job than engineers who are.
Depending on your skills (which you have not listed), you could do job recruiting from home. You can also blog about something you know and try to make money from ads, but this will generally not get you much money. Can you make crafts and sell them? Mending and repair work? Can you babysit for working parents? Dog walk or pet-sit? Invest in stocks? Tutor kids? Just some ideas….
It’s hard to give too many ideas because you have not listed any skills.

My mum saws, if you are young invest in some sawing classes, you will be surprise, how much work my mum does, she gets about 500 per week , doing costums, hemming slacks, quinceaneras, etc… an other choice is an ice cream truck, that is something that you can do just 3 hours per day, and make about 450 per week.

This was on an episode of the view. I dont normally watch it but watevers.
Stay-at-Home Mom Jobs
Learn about jobs that will allow women to still remain at home with the kids, but at the same time give them the opportunity to financially contribute to the household. Tory Johnson, author of Will Work From Home: Earn the Cash Without the Commute, joined the ladies to discuss stay-at-home mom jobs that will allow women to still remain at home with the kids, but at the same time give them the opportunity to financially contribute to the household income during these trying economic times. Here are just a few paths moms can take:
1. Become a direct sales pro:
Here are a few examples of direct-selling companies Tory discussed:
* Cooksey Keepsakes (photography parties) (cookseykeepsakes.com)
* The Happy Gardener (thehappygardener.info)
* Stella and Dot Jewelry (stelladot.com)
* Wine Shop at Home (wineshopathome.com)
* Simply Fun (games for ages 3 & up) (simplyfun.com)
2. Promote your expertise
* Soft Skills: Care giving: Childcare (Sittercity.com & care.com); eldercare (HomeInstead.com & SeniorHelpers.com); Pet sitting (FetchPetCare.com)
* Hard Skills: Technical (guru.com; elance.com; odesk.com); writing (associatedcontent.com and helium.com); advice (liveperson.com); other services.-I like this one because you make money by giving advice in your area of expertise.
3. Online selling
Convert clutter into cash on sites such as: ebay.com, amazon.com and craigslist.com
Crafts for cash: Etsy.com:
* Tutus for girls (mom2twogals.etsy.com): Leslie LaBarge of Dover, Ohio sells between $1,200 and $4,000 a month. “Paint Me A Rainbow Tutu” is her most popular item at $19.50. This is what she now does fulltime.
* Soaps (etsy.com/shop.php?user_id=6018074): Sells $1,000 worth of crazy soaps every month. It’s a mom and daughter operation.
* Dog Collars/Leashes (etsy.com/shop.php?user_id=6364018): The Cool Puppy just started and sells $500 a month and it’s growing steadily
* Funky Rose Jewelry (etsy.com/shop.php?user_id=6379945)
Hope this helps you out

Start growing MJ in your basement. Price per lb in the USA is around the same as powder, it moves just as fast and it’s super easy and fun to grow. Not to mention your popularity with friends will multiply 10-fold!

If you are ready to learn something about internet marketing but don’t have a website or newsletter; I would find a person that has made it very well and has gotten to the stage of teaching others the basics of internet marketing.
A simple way to bypass all the initial work in setting up your own internet-business would be to work as an affiliate. This means you get to promote other peoples legitimate products in return for a commission.
Such a person should have the ability to teach you in a step by step
program where you can immediately implement the steps he’s teaching you and thus show you in detail how to get enrolled with a workable affiliate system.
If you’re ready to go this way; you would not have to worry about making money again.
PS: Don’t get discouraged with the big numbers you see.
You’re expected to start at a slower pace and build it wherever you want to take it.

Don’t do surveys! They take way too long and you don’t make very much money. Then out of nowhere they stop sending you them! Also beware of sites that you have to pay for any start up.
Peoplestring is a new company that pays you to read emails. The best part is that it is absolutely FREE. You make money based on how many emails you read and also everytime you get someone to join you get a percentage of the amount of money they make. It’s really easy. I devote about an hour to it each day and I’m already making an extra $250 a week. It doesn’t seem like much but it’s growing. I predict I’ll be making close to $1500 a week soon enough.
You have to be serious about making money! You must refer people otherwise you wont make nearly as much money as you want. You make more money the harder you work.
To join just follow this link:

Feel free to email me at if you have any questions.

One of the ways that you get paid online is by giving advice to others that need it. You must use your expertise or experience to provide quality answer to these people to get a lot of money. I’ve heard some people whose work is only giving advice online and they can feed their whole family from this work.
The good thing is you don’t need any capital except for your broadband connection. You just have to login and people will contact you to answer their questions.
One of the sites that allow you to become an expert and gives you the freedom to set your fee that is. Just apply as an expert and start earning money.

I would say just abouthttp everyone that replied to your post is a spam. I too am expecting and want to be a stay at home mom. I just joined a website that I love. I have made pretty good money doing it too. 50 to 100 bucks a day adds up. The more your online the more u make. There is no investment cost either so theres nothing to loose. I am adding the link below. Just say broncosara referred you if they ask. It takes 5 minutes to sign up and u get 5 bucks just for doing so.

I am like you. A stay at home Mom with 3 kids. My husband works for the State of California and because of our budget he keeps getting pay cuts.
I do direct sales with Gold Canyon Candles and love it. I do parties, clubs, catalog parties, website orders, etc.
In addition they have great incentives which right now you could potentially earn up to $875 by just doing what you should be doing.
You can join right now for $20. Start your own business for $20 – you can go to Starbucks and pay that much in a week. Check out my website. We are a super fun team and I would love to help.

I go on this website during my free times. You can earn e-gift cards for like Amazon.com and also cash through Paypal. But the only website I know for sure that is legit is SwagBucks. They have many users and you’ll never find anyone complaining of any scam and all. All you need to provide is your e-mail address and your name. You basically win these “SwagBucks” for searching and with those, you can redeem prizes they have there. It takes a while to get enough points (otherwise they’d be out of business) but it’s not hard and it’s just for fun. (for me anyway) Sign up here if you’re interested That is my referral link, I would greatly appreciate if you signed up under my account because then I can earn more for spreading the word~! If you don’t feel comfortable about the legitimacy of this site, try searching on YahooAnswers if it is real. Every one of them will say so. Here are some tips that might be helpful so you are not lost at first

I am currently making money online and there are many out there that are scams, what I do is not. While job hunting at home I came across a club that teaches you how to make money at home online. I joined a couple of weeks ago and I am not going to sit here and tell you I make 5 figures a month, but it has been a steady stream of inflow since I started. I too am trying to find ways to stay at home with my young one and work. You can check out the tutorial to this site by clicking my link. This is an opportunity to make money, you have to decide if you want it to make some extra money for paying bills or are going to make a career out of it(depends on how much time you put in). No matter if you have no experience working online or you are a seasoned veteran with affiliate marketing, you can learn from this site. The site informs you how to do everything from affiliate marketing to selling on Ebay to running your own online business. It by far is the best one I found on the net(not saying there isn’t others).Just go to and give it a shot.
