    There are a few things you need to think about. Are you wanting to start a business from scratch? Do you have enough space to carry the inventory? Do you have the money to start a business like this? Are you able to keep up with the book keeping or will you need someone else to do this. These were questions I had to ask myself and the answer was no way. Or do you want to work with a company that is already set up and carries the inventory for you and does all the billing and paperwork and you earn a commission for what you have sold?

    I wanted to work from home also but I did not want to have to build a business from the ground up and I certainly did not want all the paperwork involved. And then there is overhead also. If you are caring inventory then you need shipping supplies and address labels and who knows what else. After 3 years of searching I finally found FourPointConsultants. I have now worked with them for 4 years. They are wonderful. They trained me and mentored me until I was ready to do it on my own. I get to be home and earn a very good income when I want to earn income. I can take time off when I want to and I can work harder if I need more money coming in. All I do is introduce people to them and I make commission and bonuses. At the end of the year I get a 1099 form for my taxes. They take care of everything else including customer service and refunds. I now have the best of both worlds. If you want to ask me questions feel free to go to my profile page to contact me. Hopefully I am following the rules here. :)
