The state of our economy has changed dramatically over the past few years. The price of gas has substantially increased and there has been a rise in the price of food, all the while the cost of living remains unchanged. As a result, many individuals have begun to seek an alternative means of obtaining an income and are doing so by working from home. Home Based Businesses, as the name implies, are business ventures people embark upon in an effort to earn a living. Whether it be through Direct Sales, MLM, through providing a service, or Network Marketing, many have found this avenue as an efficient means of achieving financial freedom for the following reasons: 1) It gives them the opportunity to fire their boss and take more control over their income and their lives. 2) It enables them to gain a feeling of success in that they see the rewards of their hard work. 3) It enables them to spend more time with their family. 4) Last but not least, there is no money spent on gas as a result of commuting, giving them the opportunity to save a little more.
Why Did I Decide to Start a Home Based Business?
Over a year ago I learned that I would soon be the mother of twins. Not only was I excited I also felt overwhelmed. I realized that my family will increase from two children to four! Not only that, instead of purchasing for one baby, I would have to double my purchases for two babies. In addition, I was not mentally, physically or FINANCIALLY prepared for the complications that I encountered. I ended up being placed on strict bed rest for five months due to these complications which had a detrimental effect on my finances. By the time I returned to work I was behind on everything from my mortgage, my property taxes and even my utility bills were behind. I began to seek other means of gaining additional income. I began searching online and going through various pages of advertisements for work from home opportunities and spoke to several representatives from those that tweaked my interest. I decided to start my home based business with the Four Point Group.
Working with the Four Point Group has been a rewarding experience. I have been taught the value of setting goals for my life as well as the necessity of striving to reach them. Not only that, I have developed and established close friendships and relationships with my fellow business builders as well as my customers. I also have a great mentor who is genuinely motivated to help me and my business grow successfully, which I find is a critical factor. One thing to remember, if you decide to join this latest trend in starting a Home Based Business, is that success does not come over night. It may take days, weeks and even months for you to reap the benefits of your hard work.
Overall, many have come to discover that owning a business that they could run from the comfort of their own home is both a rewarding and fun way of meeting their goals and moving forward along the road towards financial freedom.
