IM A MOTHER OF A 2YR OLD GIRL, IM CURENTLY WRKING AS A FULL TIME REGISTERED NURSE, I DONT HAVE ANY IDEA, BUT ID REALLY LIKE TO START A HOME BASE BUSINESS, W/OUT MUCH CAPITAL, INTRESTS INCLUDE COOKING.

i know for myself going through the life planning activity,gave me a very good idea of where things are,my options, the key is being completely honest with ur self on this process,see link: good luck, smileys/smiley2.gif

If cooking really is something you are talented at and can do with some
originality, quality and speed you may be able to find a few clients who
need home cooked meals that they can either reheat or thaw and heat.

If you cook from home though, as a business, then you have sanitation
issues and Health Dept. regulations which can be expensive to meet.

If you go to the clients home to cook then I guess that defeats the idea of
staying home with your 2 year old and getting something done.

Once when I was doing a very long trade show a woman approached me
in my booth about coming to the show every day with fresh home cooked
meals for me at $5 each meal.

Considering how bad most hotel and fast food is and because I had some
specific dietary restrictions at the time I had her bring 2 meals a day for
the duration.

She was presentable, looked serious and meticulous, the food was
fantastic, and I never got sick, I trusted her and it worked out for both of
us.

Also, with all of the dietary fads out there some people need help with
imaginative and varied salads etc which they can`t find in a restaurant and
don`t have the talent to do for themselves.

I`m sure with enough careful and discrete searching you can find clients
who will work with you, say a busy executive or busy family. In fact you
may be taking care of some of your best prospects.

Some folks who are recovering or who`s family is in turmoil because of an
illness or injury sometimes need some help with meals.

Any way I hope there was something of value in my free advice,

blessings,

That`s a fantastic idea. I know I would pay for those types of services!! I know the story of a woman who was short on cash so she went to a bunch of friends and asked if they would pay for her to cook for them. The clients chose their meals as a group, got together for dinner, enjoyed a delicious home cooked meal as well as the good company. The woman was able to not only make money, but had leftovers to eat afterwards.

Hi Myla,
I am new to the forum but have been watching your thread closely
because I would like to be a stay at home mom when I have children. So I
have been looking for a home based business opp as well. I think I may
be onto something here though, internet affiliate marketing. Maybe you
should look into that. You obviously have a computer, and know how to
use it. There are lots of resources out there on how to find your product,
build a small website, get hosting, and market your site. Just do a google
search on affiliate programs.
Hope this helps.

Hi Myla,

Starting a business is not as complicated as it seems. In fact, all you really need to get started is a positive attitude,and the desire to be self employed! The supply of something that`s in demand, and money. For now let`s focus on the second component of having a business, whats in demand?

There is a continual need for nurses in this country as evident should you come accross the healthcare clasiffied sections of your local newspaper. And this will continue to grow as the aging population continues to increase. neddless to say, the medical field is a one. Therefore, careers related to the field are sure to be worthwhile.

So what do nurses have to do with starting a business? As described above, nurses are in demand. he need for their skills is increasing, but the supply of nurses seems to be decreasing. As a result of this dilemma, companies are trying their best to seek out nurses, offering various incentives to attract employees. starting a nursing agency would put you in demand. Why? Because you have what the companies need.

The NEW 2006 Professional E-Book / Book Edition of "How to Start Your Own Nursing Agency" covers all 50 states and is jam packed with new additional products and services, making it the most comprehensive guide offered on the internet today! A fast track to your own Nursing Agency, Nurse Registry, Nurse Staffing Agency or Becoming an Independent Nurse Contractor.

MYLA-

I am super late on this post, but a very dear friend of mine has her own business she runs out of her home. She LOVES to cook so what she started doing was offering gourmet meals- she now takes care of quite a few clients who love having her cook when they have company coming over. The senior living center also has her cater to them once a month. If you live near a retirement village or community- it`s a perfect opportunity for you. She now offers women cooking classes she runs out of her kitchen. There`s always something you can do with food :) Everyone loves to eat.

She also has had a few of her products that have been sold through organic markets and food stores, it takes a lot of work for that, but it is an idea :)

Hi Pittsburgh Presence,

i was reading through this post and noticed your endorsement of internet affiliate marketing. When i first heard about this a year ago, i thought of it as MLM which i consider a crock of .... However, i became interested in pursuing this since listening to a podcast from stevepavlina.com who also advocates this method as a income-generator. can you tell me how it has profitted you and some good resources to look at?

thanks
