I have been looking around and there are so many sites out there saying you can make thousands a month if you want. There is one site that I was looking at and it gives you a little information on what the business is, but no details. I can send them my contact information and they will contact me. I am a little afraid of doing this. Do you think it is safe or not. The website I am looking at is http://sp.quicklister.com/1116-2/?g1. I can't tell what the co. name is. I guess that is a bad sign. Another co. I saw was Mom Ceo. Has anyone had any luck with this Co.

That right there would be a flag to me. Why wouldn't they say what their company name is?
I have one home biz, but have heard/read a lot about these pie in the sky opportunities.
Any solid biz will take time to grow. I believe you can make a lot of money with a home biz (or should I say I know you can), but not right from the get go.
Just my thought!

I looked at that site, and I do not see a company listed anywhere- it really just looks like a bunch of hype to me. Which is a BIG turn off. I never trust any company that starts out promising you big sums of money, it just is not realistic. Mom Ceo I think is Melaleuka. (and I probably spelled that wrong-lol) They sell healthy products for the home and family. If you do a search on here you will find alot of opinions on them. I have not ever dealt with the company myself, so I don`t have an opinion. Others seem to have very strong opinions though. Why don`t you tell us what interests you? Do you enjoy food? Candles? Jewerly? Are you healthy minded, do you like to read? etc. I am sure, based on your interests, we could suggest companies for you to check out! Read signiture lines for ideas, and look around. You will find your match I bet. Good Luck! Terry

Any company that doesn't tell you what they are about up front seems shady to me. I wouldn't do it.. Find something reputable that you believe in and give it hard work and time and you'll see results (and you'll be happy)

I, myself, would never venture into a business when they can't even tell me who they are. Plus it sounds like a get rich quick scheme to me. With any business, it takes time and work to grow. I wouldn't send them your contact info if I were you.
I believe Mom CEO is Melaleuca. I also do not have an opinion, but have read and good and bad threads on them.

I took a peek at that site and I'd be a little skeptical. Mostly because they don't tell yout he name of the company, which is a HUGE turn-off. Just be careful and do a lot of research if they ever get back to you with the company name.

Let's see. They make tons of money but need to set up a site so that other people can make tons of money so that they can make a site for those new people to make money...and on goes the cycle.
Sounds like a MLM.
I agree with what has already been said before. It does take time to really get a home business off the ground. Taking a quick route can just lead you into financial woe.
As for Melalueca, been there and done that. Not about to post my opinion which if you search on this forum it is a controversial subject BUT some people state that they have had success with it.
Good Luck and continue to post on this board. It's helped alot of people become home business owners and work from home including me.

I wouldn't recommend doing business with a company that isn't upfront about their name.
Best wishes,

Just looked at the website, and if I'm not mistaken they are marketing Liberty League INternational, a legit company but there is a lot of controversy surrounding their opportunities. Their main product is a self-improvement course that runs for $1500.

The beauty here about this board is that you can run your questions and ideas and get feedback about something you've seen.
I do understand the sentiment about sites that don't reveal upfront what it is, but not all are "shady" (for want of a better word). It's the prospecting system that's been adopted by the website system.
My sig line below is one of them, but I have had many occasions where folks here email and ask me directly about the business, and they take it from there. I am 70% done into building my own website (and losing some hair in the process) that talks about the product upfront (and discovering the importance of characters like > , . or ", which I never realised were so important in the English language!!!) The site is up but is a work-in-process... SHould be final (if there is such a word) next week.
Whatever it is you are considering, the principles are the same: - there is no such thing as being able to make lots of $$ for nothing. - it takes time, and effort to built a proper strong business - there must be something of real tangible value via goods or services involved - the company must be of good repute and standing - you must be passionate about the thingy you are involved in.
The advantage here is you can directly email your query, which you can't (or may not know enough about, from results gathered from searches from google or yahoo).
