Does anyone know of any good, legitimate work at home ideas that do not involve making an initial investment?

Question

I have tried the selling Avon, Pampered Chef, etc. but I end up putting out more money than I bring in. I am a stay at home mom of two preschoolers and part-time student, and would just like something to bring in a little extra money.

Answer 1

Hi – I sell on eBay. It works for me. I profit about $3,500 a month and only work about 6 hours a day, from home, on the schedule I choose. You can start by selling things you already have and it will only cost a few dollars for listing fees. I am a stay at home mom, too, and I have been doing this for 4 years. It is ideal for us moms because you can arrange your schedule around the needs of your family.

I find items at second hand stores, garage sales, clearance sales, and members clubs to resell on eBay. Some of the items are used, some are new. I know people who sell services like web design or graphic design. Other people sell handmade items like jewelry, customized baby items, or craft items. There are many ways to earn a living on ebay, either part-time or full-time.

Please email me directly at [e-mail] for more info.

I have been searching for work-at-home opportunities for a long time. I found 3 of them that you can make money at home with that have no start-up costs. One of them was ChaCha guide. You can see the details about the 2 of them by clicking each link below also. Actually I am doing ChaCha guide work with these two so I can make more money while I am on the computer. These do not bring in a big amount of money but while I am on the computer anyway they are generating income for me and I really do not have to do anything to make it.

Answer 4

Do you have a strong and confident voice, an internet connection, and a reliable source of communication (phone that you can receive returns calls on)? Have you ever considered being a professional appointment setter for a salesperson who has no time for phonework?

Answer 5

CashCrate is a great site to make money on if you live in the USA (or Canada). I made $494+ in February. But it did take a bit of work initially--I added referrals--and the money got better. And I believe my earnings will continue to grow. I started by answering surveys on CashCrate and filling out some free offers and received a real check from them. For example, I signed up for E-bay and made a bid and got paid $8.00. And there are no fees to join. It is totally free. So I made a little my first month with them.


But once I found out this site was legit, I started adding referrals. For every person you refer, you get 20% of what they earn. And for every person that one of your referrals refer to CashCrate, you get 10%. It may take some time to build up the number of referrals necessary to make a lot of money, but in time--this could be a great source of income--making money while other people are in a sense, working for you. And by the way--never join a work at home program that wants you to pay up front. If they were making that much money, they wouldn't need to charge you. Note: There are not many offers on this site for users outside of the USA (there quite a few offers for Canadian users though). But if you are in another country, you could still refer users from the USA to CashCrate and make money on those referrals. -
