I am looking for something that I can do from home to pay off debt. I don’t need to become a millionaire. I need something that will not rip me off. Please no surveys, I’ve been down that road.
I Am Wondering If Anyone Knows Of A Legit Home Based Business That Involves Little Start Up Costs?

LOL No surveys?? You aren’t happy with the 5 cents a day you can earn on them?
A previous poster was correct in that we’re not allowed to advertise our own individual businesses. I can say that in general, Scentsy is only $99 plus tax/s&h. Take some time and do your research. February is a GREAT month for starting with Scentsy.
Good luck finding something that works well for you!

A great home-based-business is a Virtual Assistant business. A Virtual Assistant is a highly skilled independent entrepreneur who provides a variety of services to businesses who are in need of administrative support. If you are interested in the administrative field this may be the business for you.
The first thing you need to do is do your research. I found a great website when I first started my Virtual Assistant business. It is VAnetworking. They offer a lot of services for Virtual Assistants. There is a forum to talk to other Virtual Assistants if you have any questions, they offer free seminars, they can help you get your business started, and much more. It is a great site and everyone is very nice and helpful.
The best things about starting your own VA business is that you are making an investment in yourself. You don’t have to worry about giving someone else money. If you need a program for your computer then you buy it and you know where that money went. I look at it this way: Everything you spend you are spending on your business, yourself, and your future.
The Virtual Assistant business is a great opportunity for many and hope that it is for you too.
Good luck with your home-business search.

Here are my suggestions on finding a legitimate opportunity that’s right for YOU:
- Set your financial goals — Are you just looking for extra income or a potential full-time income? How long (and hard) are you willing to work to meet your goal?
- Determine if you are looking for a JOB or a BUSINESS — there is a distinct difference between the two and you want to focus your energies appropriately for the best results.
- If looking for a JOB, what are your marketable skills and previous experiences? If you are looking for a BUSINESS, go with your passions, things that interest and motivate you the most. Build a list and use that to begin your search. General rule of thumb: Never pay for a job (businesses, on the other hand, usually involve some expenses). I recommend checking out the Telecommuting Moms folder here at WAHM.com for leads on home JOBS. I also have some resources for freelance work and telecommuting jobs on my Work From Home site.
- Review your budget — know ahead of time what you are willing and able to invest into your business, including start-up costs and ongoing maintenance and promotion.
- Find a rep to contact, check out their websites, ask questions, do your own independent research. Check resources such as http://www.bbb.org for potential scams.
I spent a lot of money for work from home business, with no luck, they would tell you what to do but not how to do it.
I got a email last week to join this club. I did he not only tell you what to do but has videos with step by step instructions how, and you don’t have to have a web.site.
email me at. anniehoakley@gmail and I will give you the info.
Cheers and God Bless you in 2009

If you want to work from home online there are few things you should know. First you can make money online, but it may not be what you think. You will not get rich quick, and don’t pay money to a site that promises this. Second you will make money, and eventually be able to replace your day job. And third you will need help to do this. Although it is not difficult information to learn there is a process that takes time to learn if you want to work online from home. This is what I do full time, and before this I was making almost minimum wage at a gas station. If I can turn my life around from learning how to work from home online you can too.
Do not buy any books that teach you how to work from home online. They are a waste of money. Yes some do have some good information in them, but they will not give you all the information you need. The reason they do this is so they can send you another e-mail saying I have another book you need to buy. And of coarse you have to buy it, or you won’t be able to apply the information you learned from the first book. I know this because I bought these books before. Plus you have no one to help you when you get stuck.
Believe me if you want to work from home online you will need help. At some point if not at first you will get stuck. More than once too.
The best news is you don’t need to have prior knowledge of computers to do this. You don’t need to even have a website, or spend a lot of money to make it work. I didn’t even know how to use the computer unless it was to buy something online.
But the only thing I will recommend you spend money on is a website membership. It won’t cost much, and what you get is far more valuable than the cost.
I am a member of one of those sites, and this is where I learned to work from home online. You will get all the information you need, videos that teach you how to apply it, and one on one help from a mentor. The great thing about the site I belong to is once you pay the membership fee, everything else is free. Most places will charge an hourly rate for one on one mentoring.
I have a home business opportunity for you and you don’t even have to sell anything! You don’t even have to leave your house! I work with a company called GDI and it pays great! You can even earn $2,000 a week! For everyone you refer, you get 10% of their sign up fee.
