Do You Plan to WAHM?
Go to: Previous Article Next Article
Wanabe Work-At-Home Moms (WAHMs) need to plan their work and then work their plans. There's no way you can just start writing stuff at your computer an instantly become successful if you don't.
When I retired at sixty-two I supplemented my Social Security by working odd jobs. My check wasn't going far and soon even part time work dried up. Employers wanted younger people who would work for less. The Internet was going to have to be my only redemption.
Happily, I can say that it is! Ive been building my online business despite not being a techno-geek. Luckily the technology is all in the background of the system I use and my income keeps growing. And age or gender don't matter!
As a busy mom being pulled in all sorts of directions I'd think that any job or business you'd want would have to meet your particular situation. Have you used your computer to help you search? So many moms just use one to email, make online purchases or look for information on good parenting tips. All the while the computer could be the big solution to their work problem.
Still wondering what kind of business you could start? Every mom has experiences, interests, hobbies and passions. You all have knowledge that someone else does not. You are communicators!
If your child is struggling with something, what do you do? You research it! If the house needs painting you call other moms to find out what painter they used and if they'd recommend them.
So, what's this got to do with becoming a WAHM (Work At Home Mom)? Ask yourself if you use the Internet, what for and how do you search for the information.
Of course! You click on Google, Yahoo, AOL, etc. to find your information. We all go online when we need answers, information or other stuff. And when we land on a site that meets our needs we tend to stay there for a while looking over the content. What does this mean? Before I tell you I'd like you to think about something you're passionate about doing.
Say your hobby is scrap booking and you decide to build a web around that theme and share your knowledge and passion. Now, lets do some brainstorming. Name three things related to scrap booking.
1. The Materials
2. * Special scissors
3. The special way that your assemble them all
You build pages around these scrap booking topics and several others. Now assume a lady is surfing the Internet looking for information on scrap booking. She does a Google search for a new way of assembling photos. On the results page she scans the descriptions and finds one that is likely to answer her question. She clicks on it. Its your site.
Your content is written in an upbeat, friendly tone. It provides everything the lady was looking for and it's explained in an easy-to-understand way. She relaxes feeling smart because she found an excellent resource. Trust begins to build. She bookmarks your site, returns often and occasionally makes a purchase, one of which includes those special scissors you recommend. This, of course, is a very simplified example but I hope you get the idea.
Busy moms everywhere are finding a little time in their busy schedules to build their own online businesses. They just do a little here and a little there as they can squeeze in the time and before they know it they are WAHMs with their online businesses.
I highly encourage all you Moms out there to consider an online business because it can satisfy all your needs; time, money and kids.
