I have to agree with Englishman....
How about selling Watchtower and Awake subs? Or NWT bibles?

A lot more employers are encouraging telecommuting these days. I work as an editor for a publishing house, and I work at home 70% of the time. If I wanted, I could work at home full time, but I like having some interraction with people, so I go in three mornings a week for four hours each time.

YoYo,
Renounce your association with the WTS and I'll help you out. I've got very deep pockets and lots of ideas.

I just did an order, from my web site, to be shipped to Australia. I don't get many of those. New South Wales, Ozzie!!

yoyo - the one home working project that's likely to be available is telesales - usually stuff like double glazing and home improvements
it's thankless work which requires high levels of self-motivation - experience as an active JW would no doubt convince an employer to give you a try - being used to rejection but still carrying on that is ...
i understand that they pay your telephone bill and pay you for each lead that results in a sale - but like i said - thankless work - try ringing local companies from the yellow pages to see if they would consider a homeworker

One idea is if you know a trade, ie; electrician, remodeling, repair, etc, you can get a business license, bonding and insurance, and do a mobile business. The first year or so may be tough, but if you build a good client base, invest in the proper tools, take out an ad in the yellow pages you're on your way! You may have to work a regular job while you get started, to make sure you have a regular paycheck. You'll be working almost 24 hours a day for a while, but with persistance you can lose the other job eventually.
I can't emphasize enough to be honest, hard working, and PR skills are a must! Always make the customer feel that you are giving them the best deal possible, ensuring that you'll get repeat business. Customer referrals and word of mouth will do more for your business than anything else. Do NOT take on a partner, unless it is your spouse!

YoYoMama,
You could open up a consulting operation and offer lessons in specious logic and bad argumentation!
Just teasing...
A bit of advice for you, though. Don't work for another dub. They are notorious for screwing their own brothers and sisters in business. You would be appalled to find out how many "brothers" take advantage of the Bible's statement and WT injunction not to bring a brother/sister to court, and use it to their own selfish and often illegal advantage.

I remember an Awake! about four or five years ago that suggested starting a cleaning business part-time and then you can go out in service full-time. I like the way the Society thinks, always planning ahead for its followers like you, Yo Yo Mama.

Yeah, jayhawk, I did that too. It about killed me. The money was good, but what I do now (see my above posts) is so easy, and a LOT MORE MONEY!!!
What she wants is a stay-at-home, home business, not one where the office is at home. AT least I think that's what she means.
