Bio:

I sold lemonade when I was little. I think we sold all sorts of drinks on the corner. We sold avocados too. The... I know that's not my own business, but I really was working for myself by myself; I just had help finding the client....

I haven't heard anything really positive about Vonage other than the price. So why change from the phone... haven't heard anything really positive about Vonage other than the price. So why change from the phone company?...

The church I grew up in and my family still attends has "Campus Classifieds". You can advertise services, items for... Lee, I advertised a lot there. I got a few customers too. I wish more churches did that. Members want to help members....

That's a good way to look at it. Right now I think I'll be OK. I"m really excited about the new venture. Oh dear! I... at it. Right now I think I'll be OK. I"m really excited about the new venture. Oh dear! I need to call her. Whoopsie!...

Thank you, Ralph. That's so true. That mailbox is USPS property or something like that. I'll be careful. Although I... in a VERY small town and I think it would be OK. I won't do it anyway.

I like the way you put it, Debra. Thank you....

How do you decide when you're doing too many small businesses? I'm about to launch another direct marketing business and I'm really excited about it. So I'll have that, Avon, my blog, and the other home typing I do. How much is too much? Thank goodness...

Thank you, Simba. That's my thinking. And that's one of the reasons I couldn't make it in Mary Kay. The MK Cultists would not help me build my business any way other than accosting strangers while I was out shopping or dining or going out just for that...

I guess what people do is put them in driveways or hang them on doorknobs. I have other doorknob hangers that market specific products. Years ago someone in the neighborhood left catalogs in our driveway this way....

I worked at Office Depot. I liked the furniture but it cost way too much and it wasn't for me. It really wasn't right for my needs. I wish DallasCowgirl posted a link to the desk she was talking about. I'll go to Sam's and see if I see one I...

One of the ways of promoting Avon is to drop catalogs in driveways. I live in a brand new development and there are fewer than ten developed houses. If I wanted to drop catalogs, I could build a loyalty. Should I start? I have the baggies...

I sell Avon. Thank goodness Avon isn't like Mary Kay and doesn't expect me to maintain an inventory. Nevertheless, I keep a few things on hand. I like to buy my customers' favorites when they go on sale so I can make more money the next time they go to...

Spongebob, you're right. I think Avon and Mary Kay have outlived their usefulness. You can get similar products anywhere. But I love Avon products. I didn't like Mary Kay. No one liked Mary Kay. That's why I couldn't sell it. But my Avon customers want...

The reward system is the bribe system. What do you think a reward for good behavior is? It's a bribe to behave. And it doesn't always work. My parents used bribes for everything. A lot of time I modeled the behavior they wanted in front of them to get...

Oh my. How to explain this. Hmmm. Mary Kay is all about recruiting. The more people under you, the better off you are. As long as they're buying, that is. They don't have to sell, just buy. I had thousands of dollars of inventory debt that I couldn't...

I've done this too. Have to! Toner cartridges are around $100. I bought a laser printer when I was doing auto insurance claim transcription. Made so much more sense to get more pages out of a toner cartridge than ink jet. Now that I don't transcribe, I...
