As women we try to balance work, life, a social life (click that link for a Free Printable to help you balance!)... now throw in being a MOM & we can add on taking care of the kiddos & our home at the same time.

Become a Social Seller
I got my start as an Entrepreneur by becoming a Social Seller... and it was the best "Plan B" I never knew I needed. Social Selling (aka: Relationship Marketing, Network Marketing or Direct Selling) is about building relationships while building your personal brand as a Social Seller.
Companies have turned from brick & mortar businesses to online & e-commerce because THAT'S where the customers are. We can now order a product with a click of a button using our pinkie finger while making dinner in about 5 seconds flat. More & more people are turning to Social Media & using recommendations from friends before making a purchase then ever before. Why not capitalize on a business you can run from your smart phone & fit in-between the cracks of your life?
Sadly, this industry hasn't always given people the warm & fuzzies. If anyone is telling you "join my team & you'll make $XXXXX without doing anything!" R U N girl R U N. This is still a business & therefor you have to treat it as such to make income. Just because you can purchase a franchise for very little money doesn't mean it's NOT a business. It also means it's super easy to "start" a Social Selling biz, and it's just as easy to "stop" one. So those who think they don't have to work their new jewelry, or candle, or skincare, or wellness company... and the money will simply roll in... will be the first to jump out and say "It didn't work.. scam!" No no darlin, you just thought you could get rich quick & their ain't no such thing xoxoxo
I am a Founding Brand Partner of my holistic skin/body/hair care & health/wellness company & would love to help YOU become a Social Seller (and the only way you can have me as your personal mentor & biz coach). Want more info? Simply email me: info@marcykmomboss.com
Create your Amazon Store
An Amazon Store is a free premium content offer on Amazon that vendors can use to exclusively showcase a curated collection of products. These stores provide an enhanced brand-centric shopping experience on Amazon in both desktop and mobile platforms.
You can either be a Drop Shipper or you can become a Reseller.
So, how exactly do you start drop shipping on Amazon? You can drop ship on Amazon through their Fulfilled by Amazon program. In this program, you ship your products to Amazon where they carry the inventory and ship directly to your customers.
An Amazon Reseller is simply someone or some company that buys products and sells them on Amazon. Head on over to Amazon & search out your options!
Another Classic: YouTube
Become a YouTube influencer or star on your videos and make money through advertising and campaigns. Start by choosing a niche or focus for your YouTube channel. Most successful YouTubers focus on a specific topic such as music, gaming, makeup, parenting, RV living or making money from home.
And before you say to yourself "there is nothing I can do"... there are literally women making their mortgages by doing CLEAN WITH ME videos or shopaholics trying on outfits in front of the camera, getting free products & making money with (STORE NAME) HAUL or GET READY WITH ME videos.
Yes it takes time... but I think we all have a whole lotta extra time right now.
** BONUS SIDE-GIG**
If you’re a good driver and want to make use of your Car as your capital then be an UBER DRIVER. Or Door Dasher. As a driver, you can have your own time. Possibly the biggest advantage to a job like this is the flexible schedule.
Question of the Day:
Do you have a side-gig or at home hustle you would recommend? Share away!
