Legitimate Work At Home Opportunities for Stay At Home Moms

There are several types of home-based business opportunities for stay at home moms. Many stay at home moms are seeking legitimate business opportunities that they can build up into a lucrative source of income for their families. The internet is full of scams but the following opportunities are some of the legitimate businesses that can create the freedom and financial independence stay at home moms are in search of.

Selling Items Online
There are a few ways you can go about this. You can obtain a reseller's license and purchase items wholesale and sell through an online store. If purchasing wholesale items is not of interest, you can also market other people's items and earn commission from sales (also known as affiliate marketing.) Many stay at home moms also come up with their own product(s) created out of necessity which they then reproduce and sell online. Selling online is a great source of income and with the right products, an online store could be a source of income for many years.

Writing for Profits
Writing for a living may not seem like a legitimate home-based business but you would be surprised at how many people actually earn a full-time income from their blogs or ghostwriting for others. If you have a knack for writing and enjoy writing about a particular subject, you could start up a blog (most blog software is free) and begin writing. Once your audience grows, you will be able to monetize your blog with PPC (Pay-Per-Click) ads and sell advertising space. Ghostwriting is the writing of articles, ebooks, etc. for other companies. You can create a portfolio of your writing and sign up at freelance web sites to bid on various projects.



Network Marketing
Network marketing is an ideal opportunity for many work at home moms. It involves the direct selling of a particular product or products and also includes the building up of a downline. A downline includes the people you recruit and you earn commissions on their sales. When you sign up with a network marketing company, you are also in someone's downline and they are known as your sponsor. The great thing about network marketing is that everyone is helping each other succeed. The more successful everyone is, the more income created for everyone involved.
