New business blues

I've been working at building my new business now for about 1 month. I've ordered business cards, calendars, magnets, postcards, etc. Oh, yeah, I even ordered one of those vinyl stickers for the back window of my truck! It seems like I'm putting out so much and haven't gotten anything in return. I know there's a saying, "You need to spend money to make money." Really? But how much?

I guess I'm just anxious to get my first enrollment under my belt and then I'll be okay. Or will I? Does it ever end? I know that if I don't put time into my business that I won't have one, but there are so many little things that come up on a daily basis. The baby's tired and freaking out on me, my kids are home from school and can't stop fighting with each other and then there's my husband saying, "Are you still on that computer?"

All I need is just a little peace and quiet (Calgon PLEASE take me away!) to do some calls and computer time. Does anyone in the family understand this? I don't think so! Being a mom is definitely demanding in all aspects. Everyone needs or wants you at the same time and no one is willing to wait their turn. What's up with that? Well, once again the baby beckons me with his high-pitched scream for attention. Guess I better go!

I'm so excited!

FourPointMoms (a division of FourPointGroup) is a group of home business partners who believe in the concept of enhancing lives. They partner together for the purpose of mentoring others and developing home business leaders. When I found this company on the internet I knew it was the answer for me. I'm a shy person that doesn't enjoy striking up conversations with total strangers. Doing home parties and demonstrations are really out of my comfort zone, too. Thus, working over the internet and not having to be a salesperson has been a blessing. Plus...I can set my own hours, have more time with my family and determine my own personal income goals. Does any of this sound like what you may be looking for, too? Drop me an e-mail!
