The Appeal of Owning Your Own Home Business

Have you ever thought of owning your own home business? Perhaps you've even tried to start one up before, only to find out some 'hidden' rules that hampered your success. If you have, you are not alone! Many individuals start up home businesses without fulling realizing what they are getting in to.

What is Good (the Pros) About Home Businesses Anyways?


There are many great perks to owning your own business, including having the freedom to create your schedule and balance your work/life schedule as you see fit. Many pros of owning your own home business also include:
  • Spending more time with family (great for stay at home parents)
  • Earning extra income for, or during your retirement
  • Earning extra income while on disability
  • Having freedom to come up with your own ideas and see the success of something you have done and worked hard for
  • Flexible schedule to accommodate for sick days, medical appointments and even having more than usual vacation days!
But what about the cons? Certainly there has to be a downside to having your own home business? You bet your bottom dollar there is! You need to be motivated and be able to motivate yourself when the going gets tough - and it will get tough from time to time. Nothing worth doing will come super easy in life! If you think you can sit back and rake in millions, please let me in on your secret because I'd love to know about that too!

What is Bad (the Cons) to Owning a Home Business?


Seriously though, there is hard work involved, just like any other business, home or otherwise. Some other cons are:
  • Setting up and sticking to a timetable/schedule. It's easy to go off track and while it's great to be flexible you can't get into 'lazy' mode!
  • Feeling inadequate. Face it, many people consider home-businesses not 'legit' and don't realize how much work goes into them. You will work harder than most people do who work for high-end jobs! Still, it takes awhile to get the business launched and stable (like any business) and you just need to ignore people who think you don't have a 'real job'. Especially if you are raising a family at the same time - now you are working even harder and most people will not understand that at all! (Trust me, I know!)
  • No steady paycheque. Hey, I'm being honest with you. You are not on salary. You are commission-based and you get what you put in. Some months are great, some may be slow. As your business grows you will certainly gain stability but you have to be realistic with your money and goals.
  • Here's a pro and a con - No one to answer to! It's great in one way but also, you are on your own. This doesn't mean you don't have anyone to ask for assistance, we'll get into that below! But being your own boss can be scary and if you have that reaction, you are totally human!

What Kind of Home Business Should You Choose to Start Up?


Now, I'm going to say J.R Watkins because I manage a team of over 210 consultants across North America, have been with the company over 5 years and LOVE the products and company itself. However, the real answer is:

Whatever business you believe in!

Do your research and find out all the answers to the questions you have so you can make a sound business decision. Questions you need to ask:
  • What is the investment cost to be a member/consultant etc
  • Are there any hidden costs/fees
  • Any min quotas or monthly sales requirements
  • Can you sell anywhere (online, at markets, do home parties)
  • Are you restricted to territories or where can you sell geographically
  • What kind of support do you have (upline support)
  • How long has this company been in business and do they have a good track record of paying commissions
  • What kind of revenue can you expect to make and in what timeframe

What Companies I Tried Out: Avon, Partylite & J.R Watkins

 When I was a stay at home Mom I was looking to make some extra income and something to keep me occupied when my child was sleeping. I had heard of Avon but didn't like that you had to buy catalogues (campaigns) every 2 weeks. So that was out. Plus I heard you had territories so that wasn't my cup of tea either.

I did join Partylite because I loved candles and smelly stuff and was super excited when a rep came to visit me and explain the program. A few things were left out when being explained to me but I still paid over $200 for the starter package and got my supplies. I took some orders from family & friends but was really dismayed when I found out I couldn't sell anything at our local market (Partylite rules). I was also upset when I was contacted by Partylite who told me I couldn't have a website with their stuff on it or facebook page since they weren't into the online presence thing yet. (not sure if this has changed but at the time I had to take down my personal website and facebook page). I also found out that if I didn't place an order every x amount of months I lost my status as a consultant and had to place an order totalling a certain amount in order to 'regain' my status and get my discount. So, that was the end of my Partylite career! Never ordered again.

I had also joined J.R Watkins at the time, mainly because my mom and her friends were looking for a consultant. I tell you, best thing I ever did! I ordered a little here and there at first but soon I had people who wanted to join up under me. That was fine, what questions they had for me that I didn't know my manager did and she's awesome! (As is her manager!) It didn't take long for me to create a website to post listings of all my teammates and to create a program to help them grow their businesses (My college degree in Business Administration: E-Commerce & Marketing certainly helped here!)

Over the next few months I reached manager status and my team continued to grow. Most of my business is done online since we aren't restricted by territories. I don't place many customer orders which is fine since Watkins doesn't have any min order requirements or monthly order requirements! Their start up cost is only $39.95, no need to buy any 'packages' which is great! I continue to work with my team and help those out who want it and I make a comfortable income doing so. The business is stable and reliable and best of all, allows me to work at home, allowing me flexibility with my schedule for the important things in my life!

 This is your business choice and one you need to be comfortable with. I say JOIN Watkins! Only because I know how well it works and how well known the products are, but you have to make your own choice and feel right about your decision.

If you want more information on the J.R Watkins business you can get it here....

You can also email me anytime if you have any business questions and I'll be totally 100% honest with you. My job besides being an J.R Watkins Indep Consultant & National Team Manager is to help others make smart business choices and coach them if they want it. This is what I do and I love it!

All the best!

New Website Coming May 1 2013 for Consultants and Customers

April 30th: The J.R Watkins website is going to be changing soon! Scheduled to roll out on May 1st, 2013, the new website will be easier to navigate and give customers a great browsing experience!

New J.R Watkins Website Online


Watkins used to have two separate websites which caused confusion and was harder to maintain. A decision was made to make it all into one site and ultimately have one look and feel across the board. If you've ever been to the J.R Watkins website before you will find the new one very similar.

However, if you were used to shopping at the WatkinsOnline.com website you will notice many changes.

Changing to the New Watkins URL


If you had any bookmarks to a WatkinsOnline.com URL you will need to update it to the JRWatkins.com one. This also means if you had a quick link to your consultant's website (mine for example was WatkinsOnline.com/tamara.laschinsky) you will need to change it to the JRWatkins.com/consultants one (for example, mine will be http://www.JRWatkins.com/consultants/tamara.laschinsky).

Watkins Website Helps You Order With Consultants Online


The website will help you with a drop down list so you can place orders with your consultant if you forget their ID#.

While this roll-out is happening customers may notice a few things:


  1. When you order it may not say you are ordering through your consultant so when you checkout be sure to see if your consultants ID# is in the box.
  2. Anyone wanting to join Watkins and start their own J.R Watkins business will have to sign up via telephone. You must call J.R Watkins at 1.800.928.5467 and sign up that way. (Watkins will ask you for a sponsor's ID# so if you don't have one, you can use mine (378193).
Some links may not work anymore depending on where you are getting them from. For example, if a consultant did their own web page and put some links to products before they would've linked to the old site (which will remain active for 30 days after roll out). Those links won't work after 30 days so if you need help finding products you can ask me or just go to the new J.R . Watkins website here....

If you have any problems with the website please phone Watkins as they need to know what is happening. They can certainly help you over the telephone and answer any questions you have.
If you have any questions for me I'm happy to help! You can call me at 403.998.8597. 

Cheers!

Win Apple iPad or Get $300 Cash - Watkins Products Contest

Apple iPad or $300 in Cash Watkins Giveaway?

Win Apple iPad with Watkins

Wow - seriously? In all the years I've been with Watkins I've never seen this  kind of deal and am quite amazed! For the month of April, you can win an Apple iPad or $300 Cash when you sign someone up with Watkins.

The catch? You have to be an associate (guess that was a no-brainer!) and must be part of The Summit Group. Then, for each person you sign up, you get an entry to win the Apple iPad or choose $300 in cash!

How to Become Part of The Summit Group


The Summit Group was started by two Watkins associates who have grown their team over the years and now focus on providing helpful information and coaching to their team and it's members. Anyone who is part of The Summit Group will always be part of The Summit Group. So how do YOU become part of The Summit Group? Simple, join Watkins with an associate who is part of TSG already and you will automatically be part of The Summit Group as well!

Want to know who is part of TSG - yup, you guessed it! I am! I've been with Watkins since 2008 and have nothing bad to say at all. Many people like to say Watkins is a pyramid scheme - wrong! Watkins, like many companies, have distributors who sell their products for them. Like any sales job, you get paid on what you sell and the more you sell -yup, the more money you get.

Why Do People Call Watkins a Pyramid Scheme or MLM Scam?


Many MLM companies gave the name a bad reputation, making it really hard to build teams and making it essential to join other people up. Here is where Watkins is different:
  • You don't HAVE to join up anyone if you don't want to
  • The sales compensation is attractive just by selling products to customers (without having a team)
  • The savings is substantial enough that many people join Watkins just to get their own personal discounts!
  • You don't HAVE to buy anything you don't want to! (There are packages you CAN buy, but you don't have to buy them.)
Basically, you can make good money with Watkins with or without a team under you. Sure you can build a team but you don't have to. I joined to get a personal discount years ago and eventually started selling to customers and then built a team up. I now spend most of my time coaching now and helping customers find local reps to order from.

Watkins is super flexible and easy going. The only fee you HAVE to pay is $39.95, your annual membership fee. I've tried a few other companies in the past and know about "having to buy catalogs" and "having to buy starter kits" - Watkins is not like that and I LOVE it!

Tamara Laschinsky's Watkins Team & $50 Gift Certificate


Tamara Laschinsky National Team Manager #378193
My team is one of the fastest growing teams and I have associates all over Canada and the USA. I spend my time helping associates build their business and maintaining a special website that customers use to find local reps in their area. The website is called GoGreenNorthAmerica.ca and it helps customers every day, find a local Watkins rep close to them. The listing is free and a perk I offer ONLY to members on my team.

Of course, there are other members on my team who just want the personal discount and don't want to sell anything. I totally understand that and don't push anyone to do anything they don't want to. I'm here to help when help is wanted! Recently I started a new program to share the information that I've learned over the last few years. It's free to anyone who joins my team and involves a free training manual with great tips for offline & online marketing and monthly newsletters focuses on one or two main items (facebook, pinterest, farmer markets, customers sales etc.)

For the month of April - anyone who joins my Watkins Team gets a FREE $50 Gift Certificate! (No catch, just buy the membership for $39.95 and get a $50 Gift Certificate!) If you want to know more about the Watkins business, The Summit Group  and even the contests that are on right now - visit my Watkins Website and feel free to contact me anytime!
