subject: 3 Ideal Home Based Business Ideas For Single Moms [print this page]

As single moms, you have greater responsibility towards

your child because you have to act three roles: father,

mother, and breadwinner. Its due to the greater demands

of parenting that makes having a home-based business

particularly appealing to single parents. If you are

interested in starting out one, here are a few ideas to

consider.

Housekeeping Services

This is especially helpful to mothers whose children are

at the age where they still need constant supervision.

Of course, you can't very well offer housekeeping

services if you don't have the necessary skills. This

basically include all tasks of house cleaning like

sweeping floors, dusting off the furniture, changing the

bed, and taking care of dirty dishes and laundry.

When accepting housekeeping jobs, do make it clear to

your client that you may have to take your child with

you. You will, of course, have to reassure them that

having your child with you will not affect the quality

of your work in any way.

You can base your rate on the types of tasks required of

you, the size of the area requiring cleaning, and the

amount of time required for job completion.

You should have a good-quality vacuum cleaner as well as

basic cleaning tools and supplies. You should also work

on distinguishing your company from others. You could,

for instance, offer restocking your client's groceries,

cooking their meals, or walking their dog. Anyone may be

able to do housekeeping, but few can do it with their

own style and flair.

Pet Services

Being an animal lover could be your basis for your next

bread and butter. If you want to offer pet services

straight from home, you'll probably need a medium-sized

garden or lot for pets to run free in. Pet services

include dog-sitting, giving them their daily walks,

caring for aging and sickly pets, and training them.

It would help if you've got a training certificate but

you can always give them a one-day free trial of your

services, such as offering your clients to teach their

dogs how to fetch the newspaper. You should always have

a brochure or marketing material ready that will detail

all the lessons their pets will learn once they're

enrolled.

You can certainly offer pet grooming, too, but this

would require you to invest a bit in equipment and

services. You'll need a hair dryer, at the very least,

including all the grooming materials and supplies

specially designed for animals.

Network Marketing

Last but not the least, you should also consider trying

your hand in network marketing. In this type of

business, it's purely your marketing skills that will be

your investment. You don't have to spend anything, but

you have to know how to identify which people make the

ideal prospect and how to look for their hot button

the one that will make them respond immediately to your

offer.

In network marketing, you can conduct your business

either online or in person. You should also focus on

recruiting more people to make up your downline because

the more people there are in your team, the more time

you'll have free to spend with your child.

These three home-based business ideas are commonly

considered perfect for single moms because they offer

you flexible working hours and allow you to bring your

child to work if necessary. Good luck in carving a

future for you and your child!
