Hi,

Do you ever feel like building your business is a bit like walking through glue? I know I’ve felt that way in the past. You work, work, work yet don’t seem to make much progress. That’s tough, especially when you’re racing against the clock because you’re trying to avoid having to go back to that dreaded J.O.B. or you may be working hard so you can actually leave the job and come home.

As a mom, you also juggle your business around the needs of your family, which means things really start to get complicated. This situation is no fun, but the good news is there is light at the end of that long, dark tunnel. Your determination and persistence will pay off…

But first there are a few things to consider:

One – No one else is going to build your business for you. You can learn from the best coaches and mentors around but at the end of the day, it’s up to you to produce.

Two – Building a business takes time and a whole lot of effort. Don’t let anyone tell you differently. Yes, it definitely gets a lot easier but at the start, it’s very hard work.

Three – You’re going to need support. Networking and finding the right partnerships is the quickest and most profitable way to build an online business.

You’re probably wondering why I’m telling you all of this… well just over two years ago, I joined an online mentoring community and for nearly a year I did very little with the resources I had readily available to me. I also didn’t bother to build friendships, basically I didn’t venture out of my little box. I was stuck in “I can do it all myself” mode… not a good place to be.

There’s actually a little more to the story, so I decided to put together a special report detailing the changes I made during the second year I spent in this community. These changes took my business from just pocket money to very comfortable in just over a year.

And if I can do it, believe me, you can do it too… go over and read the report and if you’re making the same mistakes I was, take action and change them and see for yourself what a big difference it will make to your business and life…

WAHM Talk Radio Notes from Kelly

"You'd Make a Great Work at Home Mom if you like to..." theme continues this week with our guest who loves to Write.

Laurie Ayers has been a work at home mom for years. Single with two daughters, Laurie has earned a large part of her income from writing for others. As a Ghostwriter she has penned books, articles and special reports for other people - helping them to share their story and convey important information that they don't have the time or writing skill to share on their own. Laurie has also written for local print publications and her articles can be found on the web.

Can you make a living at home by writing? Yes you can and this week's episode will encourage you to learn more.

Sarah Robinson of Profit, Purpose and Beyond will also be appearing on this week's show to share about the upcoming Direct Seller speakers’ event and expo that she has spearheaded. If you are in direct sales or you provide a service that a direct seller would be interested in, you'll want to know about this online event so tune in to hear all of the details.
