If you don't want a website or an e-store, perhaps you should look in to blogging.  I am listing a blog that I came across, She just writes about her life, but she makes money by selling her book (perhaps you can sell shirts or ebooks) and with Google as well. You can have a blog for free with blogspot.  Also check out the other sites for inspirational stories about others that have started all different types of businesses on and off line. Check out the cafepress site, you can have a link so that anyone reading your blog can buy a t-shirt from you.  it's free to set up and they print the shirt and mail it and you get a percentage of the final price that you set.\n\nBest of luck to you

There is nothing simple or easy about starting a home-based business.\n\nThere is nothing simple about doing business on the Internet.\n\nYour best chance for success is to make a list of all the skills you have - what you like to do, what you are good at doing and then match that with a perceived need.  \n\nIf there is an existing market for what you can do, it's much easier.  Otherwise you will be spending large amounts of time building up a clientele for your product or service.\n\nA good place to start is with SCORE - link below - for free business advice from retired executives.\n\nEven if you don't spend cash starting up - be prepared to invest lots of time - most of it without bringing in cash - to establish and build your business.  \n\nEven when you do get clients, expect to put in long hours - most successful businesses don't begin to see a profit for 3-5 years.

Hi I am a work from home mom and I just wanted to give you a few tips while you look. I would say 98% of the work from home jobs have a start up fee So if you can not find one that is free then try to find one that has a small start up fee. Check all of them out with the BBB before you put any money into them.Also find something that you believe in and that you can support this will make your job much easier and allot more fun Good Luck in your hunt Misty

the only legitimate site that i know of that you can find a job that actually pays you, and is not a "start your own business" company is called  homejobstop.  search for it online.  you might have to pay a small fee to get access to it.  but, I promise! it is a real site with lots and lots, i mean thousands of real virtual job opportunities being offered.  just make sure that you have some skills that you could use to work from home before you pay the fee. any other questions about this site, please don't hesitate to email me directly.  hope this helps.
