Hi Jennifer, I am so excited when I discover another place where moms can help each other. I would love to recommend 48days.com & 48days.net. They are awesome sites and they are free. They are centered around Dan Miller, who has written "48days to the Work You Love" & No More Mondays". I think that one way we can all help each other here is to make recommendations, provide links, and help each other make the connections we all need. I have owned my own catering company for ten years. To be perfectly honest, I just did what was needed and did not think much about it. But in the last couple of years I have begun to explore and I just have so much I would love to share about all the things I have learned. I am older than most of you, so I can really be a professor at the school of hard knocks. But there is great technology out there that could allow us to have classes, group meeting and live discussions right here for little or no money. I know great experts that could really help all of us grow and learn. If there is one piece of advice I can offer here, it is to encourage all of you to start reading things that will help you get where you want to go. I would love to talk in more detail about how we can really make this a robust group that will help all of us achieve our goals, it is such fun to contemplate the possibilities! I love your comments.

Do you participate in other sites geared towards people who work at home? Do you have any sites you would like to recommend to the other WAHM's here on F&F?

One site I frequent is WAHM.com
It's got everything from articles on every topic concerning working at home to message boards and more. Whether you write, are in a sales position, run a day care or just want to connect with others working from home, it's a good site to check out.

Anyone else?

Your sweet, Lucy and I'll help get the word out to drive some interest to your blog. No problem!

Jennifer,
I could write about your campaign and post a link to you in my blog. I'm running a little Haiti campaign right now too.

I'm looking for a way to increase subscribers to my blog and am having a drawing for a free handmade lampwork glass bead rosary and blue toile pouch. Anyone who subscribes via email or google friends public between now and Palm Sunday will be entered.

Can anyone help me get the word out?

Thanks,
Lucy

Lucy -
It's where people "pass" an online invitation to participate through a "virtual catalogue." In a typical catalogue party, people pass books and take orders. With an online catalouge party you pass the invite with the online catalogue in it and take orders. I hope I helped clarify, Lucy.

Have a blessed week! Jennifer

Jennifer,
I'm not sure what an online catalogue party is. Can you describe it for me?
Thanks,
Lucy

Wondering if we might be able to help each other out on this thread. How about each of us post our "ask" and see if we can help toss a little business out there?

So answer this simple question "What are you looking for to help boost your business and how can we help?"

Example - "I'm looking for people who will host catalogue parties for me during the month of February as I am donating 100% of my profits to the Red Cross for Haitian relief in the names of my hosts. The can be traditional catalogue parties, online catalogue parties or a combination of both. If you or someone you know is interested, please feel free to contact me at TastefullyMI@aol.com."

Whose next? Just ask and we may be able to give you and your at home business a hand! :-)

How fabulous and what a great thing to do with your daughters, Lucy! Talk about modeling! Welcome to our group.
Lucy Sheahan Comment by Lucy Sheahan on January 27, 2010 at 2:05am
Hi Everyone!
I'm new to this group. I think it's great that Catholic moms support one another. My daughters and I make rosaries, table linens, and other items to raise money for a pilgrimage to the shrines of France.

Lourdes or Bust!

In Christ,
Lucy, Molly & Caroline

New year! Time to get your goals thought out, written down and one action item your willing to take this week to help achieve that goal. I am working to get back to a consistent schedule so I'm going to sit down with my calendar this week, pencil in my "standing appointments" and begin "calling out" the days/evenings I'm able to do my parties. LOVE doing 2 a week so my goal is to be consistent at 8 a month. No more 6 one month, 12 the next! YIKES.

What about you? Care to share any goals?
