Every day, I get emails from mamas like you who are interested in joining The Free Mama Movement, but…
…they’ve lost money in network marketing before.
…they’ve been blogging for years with nothing to show for it.
…they’ve been burned by people and programs that just didn’t deliver.
Jamie said it best when she asked me, point blank, “How do I know this isn’t going to be my next disappointment?”
When I get emails like this, I completely understand. You’ve heard me talk about network marketing, right? #notafan
It’s hard to make the leap and trust some chick on the Internet (especially when she spent a week doing her Facebook lives while wearing sunglasses!) — I get that!
But. I want you to know something, mama. I want you to understand the difference between freelancing as a Virtual Administrative Consultant and whatever you’ve tried before. Here are five reasons why freelancing is the best way to make money as a stay at home mom!
- Freelancing means real freedom.
Network marketing companies lure you in with pictures of beaches and the idea of freedom. But you don’t get to set your own prices, you can’t always pick and choose products to offer, and there are often program requirements you only learn about after you sign up.
When you’re a freelancer, you’re in charge. Don’t like a client? Walk away. Want to raise your rates? Go right ahead! Switching up your offerings? No problem.
If you’re looking for real freedom, freelancing is the answer.
2. You’re in control.
When you build your own business, you get to call the shots. You can design it around the things you love. One Free Mama decided she never wanted to use Microsoft Word. She told her clients that she only uses Google Docs — and it’s never been an issue.
Another Free Mama HATES talking on the phone, so she’s built systems that practically eliminate calls from her schedule.
Just imagine walking into work and telling your boss, “Hey, I’m not feeling the monthly expense reports anymore. I’m not going to do them.” Would that fly? Probably not. But when you’re a freelancer, you get to decide what you do — and what you don’t do.
3. Work from anywhere.
Maybe you’re a military spouse who moves a lot. Maybe you have a special kiddo who spends lots of time at appointments. Or maybe you’re a homeschooler who lives in an RV.
Freelancing accommodates you and lets you work from wherever you are: overseas, in waiting rooms, or on a stretch of highway in the midwest. You don’t ever have to be tied down to a specific location. You can do the work wherever you happen to be — on your own terms.
4. The barrier to entry is nonexistent.
Getting started in network marketing means investing — often significantly — in products. And you have no guarantee that you’ll manage to sell anything, and you can’t just decide to have a sale because you need a quick income boost.
If you’re reading this, you already have everything you need to get started in freelancing: a computer and an Internet connection.
And freelancing sets you up to make money from the very beginning — unlike blogging, where you can work a year or more without making a dime.
And, yes, The Free Mama Movement is a paid program, but you don’t have to enroll to be successful. There is PLENTY of free information, yours for the taking, right there on the Internet. You can find and learn what you need to know.
Of course, if you want the shortcuts and the benefit of my experience, The Free Mama Movement can help.
5. You’re already part of the BEST freelancing community in the world.
When I first started The Free Mama Movement, I imagined creating a community of women who shared their hopes, dreams, and fears; who lifted each other up; who pushed each other to grow.
You have far, far exceeded my expectations. This community is amazing, and because you’re a part of it, you don’t have to do this alone. Not only do you have access to ten thousand other women who are doing the work with you, you have access to ME. I personally answer questions from Free Mamas daily — in the Facebook group, by email, via live training videos, and more. You will not meet anyone who cares more about your success than I do.
I have stood exactly where you are now, #NAME#, and I have felt that fear in my bones. The only way out is through. All you have to do is reach out your hand, and I’ll be here to help you in — with allllll the Free Mamas cheering you on.
You’re home, Mama. Welcome.
