An Interview with a WAHM

Interview With:

Mom's Name Lisa Schulte
Mom's Business Mia Bella Soy Gourmet Candles
Url http://www.SoyCandleFamily.com

Q. Mom, what is your business? Tell us a little bit about it.
A. My 4 boys and I market Mia Bella Soy candles. As people become aware of
the dangers of soot in their homes, these "Cleaner Burning" candles are becoming
very popular. We market through craft shows, home shows, markets, fundraisers,
and other methods of online and offline marketing. Basically, however we choose.

Q. How long has this business been around?
A. 2 years as a direct selling company, but a little over one year offering residual money.

Q. Are you happy with your business or is there something different you
would like to do or add to your business?

A. I am thrilled with the business and what it has done for my family. My boys are my best marketers! They truly own the business with me and are learning how to manage money, run a business, and great people skills!

Q. How do you feel your business can benefit others?
A. This is a great business that can be started for under $50, so it is perfect for those who want to make an extra $200 a month to those who want to replace a fulltime income. I love the reaction I get from people after they try the candles. I also love being able to help organizations raise the money they need with a product that everyone can use.

Q. Do you feel like your business is a success in your eyes. Is this the
business that truly makes you happy?

A. My business is growing, but is already successful. We have fun and work together, so that is success!

Q. What advice can you give to other moms that want to work from home?
A. I say go for it!! The tax breaks alone are certainly worth owning a business, even if you have to work at a job for awhile.

Work @ Home Article

How to Work at Home and Keep Your Sanity!
© Terri Seymour

Working at home can be a blessing and/or a disaster
depending on how you are able to handle it. A home
business or job is not for all of us. I know a lot of
people who much prefer to "get out in the world" to
work.

I absolutely love working at home. I did enjoy working
outside the home as well, but I am a homebody and much
prefer working at home. It does have disadvantages
and problems though as well.

* Isolation - This can be a tough one to deal with
for some people. Sitting in your lonely little corner
or home office hour after hour can get you down. When
you start feeling isolated and lonely contact an online
friend and chat awhile. If no one is available, take a
break and get outside. Take a walk to visit a friend
or family member. Just getting out in the fresh air
can make you feel rejuvenated and alive again. Even
a phone call to an old friend or your spouse, if
possible, can do wonders.


* Self-discipline - This one can be a tuffy. Having your
own business can tend to make us lazy once in awhile.
I know it does me. ;-) What I do is go over my goals
and the reasons I started my business in the first
place. I also think about all my readers/customers who
are counting on me. This helps me get back into focus
and to get motivated to go back to work. You need to
train yourself to work when it is work time because you
have no boss to do it for you.


*Schedule Keeping - Making up a schedule is easy,
sticking to it is not. I try not to have too strict of
a schedule because it probably will need to be
changed now and then. Try a daily schedule instead
of a hourly one. This will make it much easier to
bend it when you need to. Not being able to
follow your schedule can be frustrating to say the
least, but preparing a flexible schedule makes it
less stressful on you and everyone else.


*Family Distractions - This is one of the main reasons
it is so hard to stick to our schedules! ;-) Make
time for your family and make sure they understand
that work time is for work and family time is for them.
With me, my family comes first and I arrange my
schedule around them and it works out very well.


*Lack of Respect - Although we know how important
our business is, our family or friends may not. They
think we are playing around or just doing a hobby.
You need to sit them down and explain that this is
your job and it is very important to you and they
need to respect that. Be firm. They will get the
message. ;-)


*Organization - Although we might be very organized,
we just might not have the space when working at home.
Some people might have a office, but some of us have
work stations or corners. I have a corner. Although,
I don't have much room, I am able to stay fairly well
organized. I have a shelf, a desk and a drawer - with
a file cabinet in another room and this is all I need.
Most of the organizing is on the computer so I don't
need a lot of outside room. I print out pertinent
records and file them accordingly. I have a 4-story
paper tray which holds all my "need now or soon"
papers. The shelf holds my printer, answering
machine and phone. And I also have a junk drawer
( we all need one of those)! ;-) This works out with
very few or no problems.

Although working at home does have some disadvantages,
I would not want to give it up for anything. I love the
freedom of it, the excitement of it, the pride of it,
and all the wonderful people I have met.

If you feel you are a candidate for a home business or
job, I say go for it, but I wish you much success in
whichever path you choose!
