Rock on work at home moms and dads!!!
Work....yuck...
That has always been the way I felt about going to work! I have always HATED having to be at work on someone elses time. That is what started my journey toward being a work at home mom.
My journey begins in August of 2004. I was 8 months married and desperately wanting to build a business from home. I spent long, tedious hours on the computer looking for the right business for me. I actually had received a flyer in the mail about a month earlier. It had an 800# to call to get your free cd. So, I called. Got the cd. It was filled with a lot of hype. You would not know the company you were working with until AFTER you enrolled.
So, being the young and nieve person that I was, I started talking to this guy, Bill E. Bill convinced me that I just had to this. I knew it was wellness products and that was about it. He told me about how much money I would make, how I would having a booming business in 6 months, etc etc etc.
So, I paid $800 to get started. I got a bunch of shake mixes and protein bars in the mail. I was excited. 6 months to a big income, what could be better right?
I jumped in! The $3800 credit card I got for specifically for my business, was maxed to the limit within two months. I was buying things to "help build my business". I was told that these things were necessary to have a successful business. Mind you, I had only made about $300.
So, I started working on a $1000 credit card I had, maxed that one out too.
Then I turned to the household checkbook. We won't go there.
Finally after 5 months, $6500 later, bankruptsy literally looking me in the face, I decided that enough was enough.
So, it was back to the 7am to 6 pm grind for me. I kept looking and looking. Never really finding anything.
In May of 2005, I found out I was pregnant with my son. The desire to work at home started to get overwhelming again.
Around the end of 2005, I found another business I wanted to try. Selling cookware. This one only cost me $90 to start. I made about $200 the entire 4 months I worked the business. This one did not go as extreme as the first.
I finally said, I know what I'll do, I'll make money by reading emails and taking surveys! Yeah right. 300 emails and 50 surveys later I had earned $16.27 - not counting the money I spent on some of the offers. They don't pay you till you hit $40. I never finished.
I kept working. Got promoted in my job of 2 years. Making decent money. Working a 40+ hour week. Taking my son to daycare EVERY day. Spent $400 per month on that alone. Bought a new Jeep Grand Cherokee Limited. Yeah, nice - leather, sunroof, whole nine yards. Sounds nice, but I was still taking my son to daycare everyday.
Dear hubby was working his 40+ hour week also. Ended up buying hisself an 04 Ford F150 XLT. The one with the adjustable foot pedals - crazy huh.
Anyway, all that is nice. But how much of it is really worth letting someone else raise your child????
It just isn't.
Finally in September 2007, I found AmeriPlan®! It was the FIRST service based business I came across in my 3 years of searching. I did my research on this one. What I found was amazing. I was hooked. I invested $95 to start my business at about 2 am on a Friday night. Hubby was a sleep and didn't know. I wanted to keep it that way until I could see if it worked. I figured if it didn't work, he would never have to know. If it did work, then I would tell him.
So, I rolled my sleeves up an jumped in! I enrolled my first member the very first week. My first business owner the next week. Kept working and moving forward. Hit my first promotion after only a month and a half in the business! That was November 15, 2007. Now I am on track to my second promotion and my $100,000 in the next 3 years!
I am proof of what dedication, desire, and consistancy will do. AmeriPlan® has been a blessing from above for my family. I am now a full time work at home mom, with the most amazing team you could ask for!
