Can anyone give me some LEGIT companies for stay home mom's. I heard of power mall andI am not sure about whether they are legit or not, and of course I don't want to invest ime into it, if I can't make money. Any advice would be helpful.
Thanks

If she can get around, she can sell Avon products as a rep. There is not a large start-up fee, and there is plenty of help and advice. Start now for the Xmas season will in full swing soon.

I think there is no such thing as a legit work at home company. They're ALL scams in my opinion. I don't even try to find a legit one anymore. But I am a stay at home mom and I do work from home. We used to live in an apartment with low rent so I babysat for a neighbor who was a single mom and I let her decide how much she could afford to pay me and that worked out really well. She paid me $400 per month for her 13 month old then she had another baby a few months later and paid me $800 per month for 2 kids. Now we own a home and I'm now licensed to have 8 children at a time in my home and I charge $700 for each child. To me taking care of other people's children is the best job there is for people who want to stay home with their own kids. You're home anyway with your kids, so why not take care of one or two more...? You don't have to invest much money, toys you already have, food you get back when you do taxes. Childcare, babysitting is the best thing I'd recommend to every stay at home mom who wants some income.

I think direct sales companies (Avon, Pampered Chef, Tastefully Simple, Arbonne, etc) are a great option for moms. They provide the chance to be out of the house (for parties, delivering orders, finding new customers), but they can be a lot of work to create a steady income.

A great way to make money from home is with eBay. Start with selling off items you no longer need that are in good or new condition. Once you make money from those items, you can roll it over into new stock. Pick something you enjoy and spend some time searching for it on eBay, check the completed listings for those items. This will give you a better idea of what is a good selling item and what is not.

For more information, check out the eBook written by the eBay Coach. It is a great book. You can find it here:

I know a lot about this topic, I have a lot of good info for you. Many people are looking for work from home companies. All the scams definitely create a big problem but also, there is a problem of people misunderstanding the difference between work from home "jobs" and work from home opportunities. There really are not work from home “jobs”. To get that you have to start working for a company in their offices first, then they MAY allow you to take the job home.

Most of the work from home opportunities that are legitimate offers are not an hourly pay type job. They are business opportunities that help you in starting your own business from your home.

What you should do first is to decide if you are simply looking for an hourly rate type job or if you are looking for more of an opportunity for additional income such as what you would make in your own business being your own boss from home. Many say a JOB stands for Just Over Broker and I have found that to be true as well. I never got anywhere working for others.

Small home businesses have some small costs involved, less then $100 to start is reasonable and I would stay away from those wanting $300, $500 even some asking for $1000. It doesn’t cost that much to start and run a home business so you shouldn’t pay it. The real ones will have a small monthly overhead as well. Should be around $50 a month but no more then $75. And everything should be included from your web sites to training and team support to back office accounting and booking. Its ok to pay this overhead because it’s a business, they cost money. Its not reasonable to assume you can run a business from home with a website and more for free so do keep that in mind as you search.

If you are coming across places that say free then I would RUN don’t walk the other way! They never are. I tried them many a times and 3 weeks later I had to buy this and 6 weeks later that. After 6 months these “free businesses” had cost me over $800 usually.

I’m a stay at home mom of two little girls a 1 year old and a 3 year old. I work about 15-18 hours per week for a National Medical Benefits Company. This is a home business, a nationally known and reputable home business which is what you need to make sure you are looking for. I have been with the company for 6 months and am now making over $2000 a month! In your first month, depending on how many hours you can work I have seen people make anywhere from $500 to over $2000. And your income will increase each month because we get paid residual income as well. If I continue on as I am going at the end of the year I will be making $5000 a month. My friend Becky from South Carolina started 2 years before me and she is now making $95,000 a year with her home business.

The best part is they have 401(k), direct deposit and a benefits package. In addition, there are no products, no hard selling or pushing, no cold calling and no telemarketing! That was VERY important to me.

I absolutely love working with them and I can't believe I am making what I am making and in so few hours per week. The neat thing is there are other people on your team that you work with so you are never alone. You have great team support and you get to know the other people on your team pretty well. The support is great but I have made wonderful friends as well. I think that’s important too, especially being at home!

I was a bit apprehensive at first because I know a lot of companies are not legit but this company is the number one National Medical Benefits Company in the US. They are a member of the US Chamber of Commerce, The Consumer Health Alliance and the National Association of Dental Plans which is very impressive. Also they were featured in “The New York Times”, “Wall Street Journal” “Time Magazine” and the “American Medical Review”. Even “60 Minutes” with Morley Safer did a big special on them!

Even more then all this is they are accepted at over 100,000 retailers nation wide. These are fortune 500 companies like Sears, Target, Walgreens, CVS, Wal-mart and more. These companies would never work with a company that was any thing less then reputable. That made me feel very good about working with them knowing they were accepted at the stores I frequent. Also now of course being with them I get the benefits for free and I saved over $150 on my last visit to the dentist! That’s just a beautiful perk! : - )

When I first started I just felt very safe with them, that and my friend was already making so much money with them! But at this point I feel a sense of security financially that our family has never had before. That plus LOVING what you do? What could be better?

Check them out! Just type in www.workathomeplus.net in your web browser.

I can send you the info if you would like. or you can go to www.file.fourppintmoms.com and check things out there..... the best thing about the company is that they mentor you, they dont just let you go out on your own.

Depends on what kind of work you want to put into it. I wanted to do one where I could work on the computer and get paid for doing it. I have gotten started with www.quixtar.com It costs about 200.00 to start but you own your own business. It is basically an online mall and you just get people to shop there. One of the top online sellers for health and beauty. It is pretty awesome. Oprah even advertized it in her magazine a few times. If Oprah advertizes it then you know it is legit!
