Mobile Hair and Make Up Artist

Do you have your cosmetology license or are just really good at hair and make up? Advertise your services for mobile hair and make up on Craiglist, facebook, create a facebook page, make a free website, network with wedding vendors, and go to the site of the Brides/Bridesmaids. You will need to draw up a liability waiver, for skin conditions or allergic reactions to make up, will need proper brushes, disposable "supplies", and need to invest in good make ups. Charging a fee per person will be up to you, but many hair salons because of overhead, charge quite a bit of money and it has to be scheduled in the salon. Many bridal parties get ready at hotels. It's a fun occupation, you can do your marketing from home and make a nice income from making people pretty, at their convenience.

Sales, a world of opportunities

Do you already work for someone and in sales? How many of you actually sell something and wonder where the product came from? One of the opportunities out there is to find a niche product, maybe in your area of expertise, in my case, I am in the Automotive Industry. I go right to the source, who makes it, creates it, etc. Many successful distributors started with ONE product they took to businesses to sell. There is a cost and commission involved, and that is how everyone makes a profit. Maybe you like a specific industry, like Weddings for example, get a product and market it to people who sell it, like florists, dress shops, craft stores, etc. With the internet these days it's very easy to find a "wholesaler". My next subject on wholesaling is important. Please read. Just because someone calls themselves a "wholesaler" does NOT mean they are.....in fact that wholesaler is usually purchasing their goods from someone else, marking up the product to you, and by the time you get it to the place of business your selling to, it's way to expensive. True wholesale cost is an interesting subject we will cover and ways to find true sources.

what should I do?

One thing that makes me good at starting my own business and working for myself, is that I think there are so many things I want to do, and it's very hard for me to stick to ONE thing. If you know me, you'd probably know that I do too many things, sometimes becoming a jack of all trades, and master of nothing. However, along the road I decided I needed to focus on my strengths, focus on what I'm good at, and opportunities that I could actually realize and not just conceptualize what I think "could happen"! So the first thing to do, is realize what strengths you have, what you already have as far as necessary tools. For example, if you want to be a medical transcriptionist, do you have the necessary equipment? do you have a computer, printer, dictation devices, good wpm? If you excel at typing and dictation, maybe your an admin person already, then you could segue right into a position like that. Evaluate what equipment you'll need and assess the costs to acquire. What strengths do you have? Is there some experience you bring to the table?

Introduction

I am a Mother of 3, and decided to start this blog because in my last 20 years I have started many different businesses and hope I can help someone along the way in pursuit of doing the same thing. I hope there will be open discussions, posting of different opportunities, and maybe help provide insight to all the opportunities out there for people who have the desire to work for themselves and from their home office. First I will start by saying, I do work from home. I run a company that finds independent sales people to market and sell from Automotive products that you would find in Auto Dealerships. I also event plan, and write for a few blogs. I have never been satisfied working for "the man" as we refer to it so often. I like to make my own schedule, and my own income. I work hard, but I like the variety of what I do. I am also a Mom to a recently turned 1 year old, a 3 year old, and a near 14 year old. Life is never dull and I'm ALWAYS very busy. If you'd like to subscribe, send us your email, and we will send you work from home opportunities. Let's get started!
