If you are like most people you have! I started with Younique back in July of 2013 without much hope. I have sold Tastefully Simple, Avon, Vault Denim, Paparazi and none of them fit me. But Younique is taking off for me! I think it is because it is mainly online based and they have amazing products that I truly love wearing!<br />
<br />
If you are considering a direct sales businesses the first thing is to make sure you LOVE the product! You need to talk about it, use it and just talk about it again. <br />
<br />
Direct sales is not easy and your income is not guaranteed, but I have used the extra money to take vacations and buy my kids a decent sized pool. <br />
<br />
If you decide Younique might be something you would like - check out <a href="http://www.get3dfiberlash.com/">www.get3dfiberlash.com</a> or drop me a note<br />

But I had to share that I finally got in, twice actually, to donate plasma. The first time included the physical and took about three hours in total, but the pay was $60 so for $20 an hour i was fine. I had a good plasma tech and the donation was simple. </div><div> </div><div> <img style="margin: 0px auto 10px; width: 320px; height: 240px; text-align: center; display: block; cursor: pointer;" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5730218555286651234" border="0" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEigWiQ1wdTasInjaloiMApTaqZoT-BKr8jXM_IVkBtHbXaGol9oKssQAPgWZdakCKBVZIy4InVPd3SCwqQ1Y2BD8KL9TUI7PV56LYNwM7SJuxtlyCDIBMATsk4YDHZ9QTxrjyvMXQYdP6vg/s320/plasma+machne+-+eligius4917.jpg" /></div><div> </div><div>They do discard your plasma if you don't donate twice so I went back a second time and made $40. This time was a bit more difficult because the tech didnt put the needle in right and it left a mark. It did not really hurt beside the pinch of the needle and the saline they use to replace your plasma is cold going in.</div><div> </div><div>You can read, do crosswords or watch their tvs while you donate so the time went pretty fast. I am going again this week. You only get $60 per week after your first two times at Talecris where I went, but you can make $240 per month if you go twice a week (this is the max).</div><div> </div><div>It may not seem like a lot but $240 a month pays a bill or two for me which is great and leaves me with more spending money, besides where else can you get paid $20 an hour to read or watch tv?</div>Char Khttp://www.blogger.com/profile/13909284518634323523noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6424180452263805913.post-70663963002172436612012-04-11T09:36:00.003-07:002012-04-11T10:09:38.971-07:00Money Making Posts AgainHi again all,<br /><br />Long time no posts right! Well I have been doing a ton of work from home in addition to a new job outside of the home and other personal things. So I have been writing and making about $250 per month!<br /><br />A company called BMR was keeping me busy with clients, but now they have went out of business so I was fortunate enough to find a blogging job with <a href="http://www.bonomotion.com">Bonomotion Video</a>.<br /><br />I was skeptical but there is consistent work available for those who look for it.<br /><br />I am going to share one of my favorite sites for work. <a href="http://www.odesk.com">Odesk</a> has been great. I use it more often than anything to get consistent writing jobs. But if writing is not your thing they do offer programming jobs, data entry, personal assistant, research and recruiting. Some jobs don't pay much but they are a great way to get started in freelancing.<br /><br />Companies are looking for less expensive or short term labor, there is a lot of work out there you just have to go and get it!Char Khttp://www.blogger.com/profile/13909284518634323523noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6424180452263805913.post-91219130721170992422011-11-07T12:49:00.000-08:002011-11-07T15:04:49.612-08:00Money making online a myth?Hi again all,<br /><br />I hear the question is making money online a myth many times a day and on message boards. Making a living online is tough, but many do it. Making money online, however is not. I made a part time income last year not enough to live on but it does take work and since I do it part time...you get what you put in to it. To see if you can do it full time you would have to devote 40 hours to online money making but after you research and find your ways to make money. Most of the money I make comes from writing, however I could do more things like web site building or personal shopping or other paid to things, but my talent is writing so it is easier to make money that way.<br /><br />It seem advertising (my other talent) is another good way to make money online, but dont believe anyone that tells you its not possible because it is.Char Khttp://www.blogger.com/profile/13909284518634323523noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6424180452263805913.post-6499908426827729032011-11-07T07:10:00.000-08:002011-11-07T07:12:58.188-08:00New money making spotHi again,<br /><br />So most people may not know about this one, but Odesk.com is a great place to make money. I just got my first ebook deal on Odesk. It is very similar to elance but no upfront payment. Odesk takes 10% of your earnings, but you set your price and apply to the jobs you want. So far i like - we will se how my first job with odesk goes. You can do anything from writing to research or being a virtual assistant. So it is not just for writers.<br /><br /><a href="http://www.odesk.com/">www.odesk.com</a>Char Khttp://www.blogger.com/profile/13909284518634323523noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6424180452263805913.post-40427472574613752752011-10-31T09:08:00.000-07:002011-10-31T09:10:48.828-07:00Plasma donation updateSo I did not donate plasma. My iron level was too low, however it was a simple process that was more time consuming than anything. I still may try and donate plasma this week. Our center pays $100 the first week - $60 the first time and $40 the second and $60 per week after the first week. Donating plasma not only save lives but here you can make $240 per month!Char Khttp://www.blogger.com/profile/13909284518634323523noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6424180452263805913.post-45573621116935863072011-10-28T11:09:00.000-07:002011-10-28T11:24:40.632-07:00Craigslist for JobsOk so I know we have discussed selling on craigslist, but what about selling your services or looking for jobs?<br /><br />I got an interview, not a job, but its a start to do facebook updates for a portrait studio. Its a home job and a great opportunity for me to make extra money and I live in a smaller town and it is a great way to find some great part time work.<br /><br /><a href="http://www.craigslist.com/">www.craigslist.com</a>Char Khttp://www.blogger.com/profile/13909284518634323523noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6424180452263805913.post-71697102624312099632011-10-28T10:55:00.000-07:002011-10-28T11:03:34.754-07:00Blowing up with AdSenseOk maybe not blowing up, but since I have gotten back to posting I have made $1.89 this week. May not sound like a lot but that is the most I have made in a week. And considering I am a very part time blogger its not bad for starting to ramp things up a little.<br /><br />So where do I earn my adsense money?<br />1. Blogs - I have this one and one other<br />2. HubPages - three articles total<br /><br />and so far thats about it.<br /><br />I know Squidoo also pays via adsense so that is another place to check out.<br /><br />I will be adding as many more money making ideas as I can as I know this is a tough economy.Char Khttp://www.blogger.com/profile/13909284518634323523noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6424180452263805913.post-53246110138193962642011-10-25T07:17:00.000-07:002011-10-25T07:22:04.661-07:00HubPages made me .44 today!Ok I know its not a windfall, but I only have three hubs total. So .44 cents in one day is really pretty good. I may have to go back there and write more. Squidoo is kind of a bust for me but it is another writing site you can sign up with and just start making money.<br /><br />I remember reading a blog where a man made tons of money using adsense and blogs, but I think he must have posted a ton. At least with HubPages I kind of forget I accumlating money in my adsense account.Char Khttp://www.blogger.com/profile/13909284518634323523noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6424180452263805913.post-48485176893588813952011-10-21T11:39:00.000-07:002011-10-21T11:54:53.511-07:00Plasma DonationsHi there again,<br /><br />So the cleaning fell through so I am donating plasma the first week of November, so I will definitely let you know if it is painful or not. First time donation pays $60 and if I donate a second time in the week I get another $40. After that it is $30 per time so I can make $60 per week.<br /><br />Not too bad. I am also couponing since two of my friends from <a href="http://www.valleydealseekers.com/">www.valleydealseekers.com</a> were on TLC's extreme couponing and although I am not to 80% yet I am getting lots of free stuff and way less spending on groceries and toiletries. I am working on my own couponing and money saving blog here <a href="http://www.charsdeals.blogspot.com/">www.charsdeals.blogspot.com</a> so I figure if I cant make extra then I need to save money too!<br /><br />Another site I found is Guru.com - it pays you to bid on projects like elance.com - check it out.<br /><br />Finally Vault Denim...well I didnt have any parties this month but I still got a check based on my recruits. I love this company so far.

<br />
<br />So we will look at other direct sales companies in the future but the key to making money is loving doing it, but the best way to start is by saving money. I have recently started couponing and it takes patience. Clipping coupons can boost your income in savings. My first trip as a couponer, I saved $10. Maybe not super awesome, but still a start. Other people i know maximize their savings for up to 86% on groceries and toiltries.
<br />
<br />You can check out my couponing adventures on my blog at <a href="http://charsdeals.blogspot.com/">http://charsdeals.blogspot.com/</a>

And Avon is only $10 to start so that make it a very viable new business. Just drop off catalogs at clinics, hospitals everywhere you can think of with a waiting room and make some extra money.

And that really is the biggest key to home parties and direct sales. You need to love the product so you can get excited about it and sell it!.<br /><br /><a href="http://www.tastefullysimple.com/">www.tastefullysimple.com</a><br /><br />This company sells gourmet food products and home taste testing parties. Really who doesn't like to eat and it fairly reasonable for the items. Plus if you order enough it can be shipped right to your door and not the hostess.<br /><br />There are other gourmet food sales company's out there so I think I should mention the Direct Sales Association <a href="http://www.dsa.org/">www.dsa.org</a> - they list reputable companies to think about joining in all venues.Char Khttp://www.blogger.com/profile/13909284518634323523noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6424180452263805913.post-6092964917607018952011-07-27T13:36:00.000-07:002011-07-27T13:41:54.987-07:00Working from Home - Direct Sales Series Part oneWorking from home in direct sales? Uggg most people say, but you can make money if you treat it as your job. I recently joined Vault Denim an at home jean party concept and I love it! No inventory, you check it out from a regional coordinator...sell jeans that day and then return what you dont sell. It is so fun! And easy, I already have a recruit in the first month and she has three!<br /><br />So I will look at a few worthwhile companies if the home party system interests you. The best thing you can do is get in on the ground floor. There are only 5000 Vault Denim consultants right now so I knew it was a good time to get in. Also sell something consumable or something people will keep buying. Jeans are so common and the company is adding kids and men. Its hard to go wrong with this concept and they are designer jeans at low prices.<br /><br /><a href="http://www.vaultdenim.com/charking">http://www.vaultdenim.com/charking</a> - this is my website if you are interested in learning more about the company.<br /><br />Depending on sales you earn 24% of your sales and more from your recruits and it only costs $159 to join.

Not too bad for some quick Christmas money without having to go work a real job. Ebay has always been a fun place to sell and bid, but they got horrible quick if you are a seller. So now I have a new philosophy...sell stuff that you want to get rid of and make sure the listing fees are free. So far so good. Gotta go in my basement and find more stuff this week - and extra $300 or so a month would go along way. <a href="http://www.ebay.com/">www.ebay.com</a> to try your hand at selling online or look for my auctions - makeup_gir... ok so I was missing the L in girl but I am ok with it.

Go to <a href="http://www.amazon.com/">www.amazon.com</a> and sign up to become an affilate. Place their links and banner ads on your blogs, hubpages and websites and when people purchase make a cut of their purchase. Many on hubpages make extra cash with this method.

I am going to go back to selling on ebay...well a little bit. I have a few old phones and other items so I am going to see if the buyers are still there. Christmas is always the best selling season on ebay so... here we go. I will keep you posted as to how it goes, but I believe if you start the listing at $.99 you can list five for free so it is worth trying again.<br /><br />Will let you know how it goes and post more money making ideas tomorrow.Char Khttp://www.blogger.com/profile/13909284518634323523noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6424180452263805913.post-69714047444241445782010-11-14T13:34:00.001-08:002010-11-14T13:40:28.681-08:00Making Money from Home Idea of the dayToday's money making idea of the day is selling clothing to a local second chance stores that buy those items. Go through all the old clothes you have and your kids. Sort them in pile - designer adult and designer kids.

Last month I made about $200 after having a crappy rummage sale, I posted the other items that I had left on <a href="http://www.craigslist.com/">Craigslist</a>. Some of them sold within a few hours! Here a few tips for listing your items.<br /><br /><ol><li>Price a bit higher but not too high - people like to negotiate</li><li>Use the anonymous email option</li><li>Put your phone number only if it a high ticket item and put spaces in it so you dont get fake calls</li><li>Use pictures - craigslist is free - pictures sell your items.</li><li>Remember what you think is junk - other people treasure and it is much easier to list on craigslist than sit for hours at a rummage sale.</li></ol><p>Good luck and post your successes!</p>Char Khttp://www.blogger.com/profile/13909284518634323523noreply@blogger.com0
