Side project

Since becoming pregnant and I feel as fat as a house it has been increasingly difficult to continue with massage. I have been a massage therapist for the last 6 years. The work is enjoyable as are my regular clients but being a single mother it's rough. Now I have to book appointments together and I have to shorten my days. As a result my income is less then stellar, so what does one do? Well they think creatively on how to make money. Most of my friends do some kind of direct selling business and that's ok I just am not feeling the whole hostess parties and long hours on Saturday's hawk a product at a vendor show. No thank you. So I have been trying to look into doing affiliate marketing with a couple companies but they are not as legit as they want you to think. Some people do make money, not sure how but when it comes to asking how I am always given the opposite advice because, well, I'm competition.

Second thought is then well how do I do affiliate marketing with a blog? Seems easy right? Yeah not so much, but still working on it. Can't use Google Ad Sense because I keep getting rejected, guess I'm not cool enough. However, this blog has been growing daily and honestly it has to be because of Twitter.

Third thought was don't re-event the wheel. What does that even mean?No matter what one does look to others to see what you can do. So I came up with the idea of hair bows. At vendor shows these ladies always have these super adorable hair bows and they sell them pretty cheap. Figured why not, I use to make dog hair bows for when I ventured out as a groomer when the economy tanked in 08. So that's my side project making hair bows. The first batch was funky but got better as time went on.

Today's blog was brought to you by the letter C for creativity. Everyone is creative in their own way just got to figure out how you are. This is how multi million dollar companies were created. vision+passion=loving what you do, try it, it could change your life.  







Enlarge your house with glue(Don't mind this it's code for something I'm trying out.)
