Hi,

I was wondering what careers/jobs are flexible and family friendly. I know of a few, but I was looking for some more suggestions on some positions that work for families.

Thank you for any responses.

What can I do next?

L.,

Have you heard of Scentsy "Authentic Wickless Candle"? Extremely safe w/ no wick, soot, lead, or flame. I would highly recommend starting a Scentsy Business! IT has been an amazing opportunity for my family and I.

Our warmers are heated by a 25-watt light bulb in a 2-piece warmer, our candle bars are made of a soft wax packed full of incredible scents. With a burn time of 60-80 hours per Scentsy bar (and sometimes more), over 80 scents to choose from, a wonderful selection of warmers, plus car candles and room sprays, there's something for everyone.

Consider this: By the middle of May 2008, we sold over 1.5 million worth of warmers, bars, room sprays, and car candles. That's 495% more than during the same time period in May 2007. That's AMAZING! We also added 698 Consultants in this time period. THAT'S 612% MORE THAN WE HAD JOINED DURING THE SAME TIME PERIOD IN MAY 2007! If you are considering a home business, this is a great opportunity for you to get in early with a company that I believe will become a household name! Ask me about MY SPECIAL for anyone interested in BECOMING a Scentsy Consultant in the month of APRIL! THIS IS A GREAT TIME TO START YOUR SCENTSY BUSINESS since our New Spring and Summer Catalogs has just arrived.

Have a Scent-Sational Day!

Hi L. - I'm also in direct sales and agree with what the previous person said about not being effected by the recession. I am a Creative Memories consultant. As for working with families, that's exactly what I do - I help people to save their photo memories in a way that is meaningful for them. WHether it's in a photo album, organized in boxes or on the computer or thru digital storybooks. I have been doing this for 11 years and have helped to put my son in college and take my family on some great vacations. I work around everyone's schedule and can be with them for all their sports and activities. Feel free to call or email me. Or you can visit my website at www.mycmsite.com/cindyscalera Good luck!

Hi L.,

I work from home and love it! I've partnered with a health and wellness company. It's great for moms because we don't have to stock, sell, deliver, collect money, have parties. We work from the convenience of our homes using the internet and phone.

If you want to hear more, please feel free to contact me.

I sell Gold Canyon products....I have 5 boys, I am very active with our schools, sports and family and I can do this on my time. I love it, I've never been happier...I make great money and if I don't want to work...I don't...when I want to I do...gotta love that! Just a little fyi...direct sales are usually the only ones not effected by recession...they flourish...people spend more time in their homes(less time at the movies or out to dinner) so they spend their money there...the great thing about Gold Canyon is it's consumable(unlike jewerly and kitchen stuff) you always need more candles, cleaning products and lotions...and these are the small luxuries that most people won't give up...I am busier this year, than last...it's just a thought if you want to check it out here's my website...I love my job!!
