I really want to find businesses which we can use in a rural community to help make a better world, one with low capital input and yet much potential to help others and make money. It can be an on-line business, but I also want to find cottage industries where we can make items which can help people live more sustainably.

Network marketing is acceptable, but I sure would like to find a company that is totally honest, doesn’t feel a need to exagerate their claims, and doesn’t focus so much on the fact that people are going to get rich so they can buy big unsustainable houses, and brand new cars. I would love a business where people who are involved believe in John Wesley’s saying: work as hard as you can, to make as much as you can, to use as little as you can, to give away as much as you can.

Also, this business would have much support, and people could easily learn about team building, learning organizations, and how to live life successfully on all levels. I’m not asking for a lot!

    Kaiser Blair is a good and honest company. I think you would do well with it.

    I have a home business where the focus is on health and wellness. We market a product that is beneficial to anyone with auto-immune deficiencies, and we are helping people get off of a variety of medications that have serious and sometimes lethal side-effects. I think this is perfect for you because it very much supports learning, team building and how to live successfully on all levels. It’s something anyone can do, it’s basically story-telling, or sharing with others what it has done for you. I firmly believe this product saved my husband’s life, he has congestive heart failure, complicated by diabetes. He is now off of 3 of his 14 daily meds. It is excellent for prevention of disease as well.
    I have never seen 2 owners of a company with more integrity than this one. Their goal is to see everyone succeed, as they were once out in the field and are aware of all the pitfalls, so they have taken measurements to improve on everything.

    One of my favourite things is that a portion of every sale goes to all different kids charities. I proudly wear my "GojiKids" pin!

    I’m pretty sure I’ve found what you are looking for but because the community rules don’t allow me to publish my website, simply email me at naturesproducts@msn.com with home business in the subject line and I’ll send you the links and then if you desire set up a time to an online business overview (approx. 45 min) where we give you all the information you would need to make an educated decision, we will do that. Our network offers free info, unlimited support, training and are partnered with an Inc.500 Company who has recently been inducted into the BBB Hall of Fame for companies doing business with honesty and integrity over a 20 year period.

    Hi, my name is Peter and I’m from Canada. The business that I absolutely LOVE is from a company called Freelife International. They promote a product called Himalayan Goji Juice. By sharing this with family and friends, I am seeing a tremendous change in their health and well-being. I never would have believed it myself until I asked a few of my close family and friends to try this out and give me their honest opinion. If you can’t trust your family and close friends then who can you trust. I couldn’t believe the comments I was getting back within just a few days.

    I love the commitment and dedication of the President and CEO as well as everyone I have met along the way. The product has doubled in sales every month for the past 3 years. No direct sales company has experienced growth like this.

    Now, I’m new to the direct selling industry but I learned very early on that this product and business is never about just me. My goal is to help each and everyone of my team members obtain the goals they have set up for themselves. Keep in mind that I will give as much support as I can to the willing. I will not motivate team members as I believe that has to come from within. The book that I enjoy and live by in this business is called "The 7 Habits of Highly Effective People: Powerful Lessons in Personal Change" by Stephen Covey.

    If you would like more information, please e-mail me back or call me toll-free and tell me the best time to contact you. My toll-free number is 1-888-909-7008. I wish to thank you for your time and I look forward to discuss Goji Juice.

    I want to share with you the Arbonne Business Opportunity. If you are concerned about making the world a better place – what about all natural, botanical, certified vegan health and beauty products that are safe and beneficial for everyone?
    I use these products because the company doesn’ty USE any animal byproducts, they don’t test on animals, their manufacturing and packaging methods are environmentally sounds and recyclable. If you want to make the world a better place, be a conscious consumer and purchase products with the environment in mind.

    Arbonne provides FREE online training so you can become your own expert. There are field meetings, conference calls and a lot of support from your upline. Please check out my website, and feel free to contact me about this. I didn’t start this endeavor lightly. I sell Arbonne because I believe in their products, and I believe in helping save our environment, and I believe in putting nature’s herbs on my skin – not road kill and fish scales.
