Let's just chat!

[Lori]

Here's a place for us to get to know eachother on a more personal level... it doesn't ALWAYS have to be business!

I hope you'll join me :D

[Nellers]

Nice addition. The general folder is the most popular at my forums :D

[Lori]

Nice addition.

Thanks Nell,

The Social Chatting forums have been here since the beginning - but I think they were just too far down on the page. Hopefully this encourages women to get to know eachother outside of 'work' :)

[Ravish30]

I love social chatting....I think its a great way to get to know one another. I am more apt to business with someone once I have gotten to know them so for me...its a part of networking online.

Shelly

[Lori]

Really great point Shelly!

[Mel]

That's a great point Shelly and so many people don't realize this.

[Mladyjoy]

The thing about my business is, I feel like making friends is a part of it too! :-) It's hard for me to talk about anything it seems without talking "business"... maybe I do need a break? LOL! :lmao: Love these smilies Lori! :t10:

[miller4631]

i love what i do

[stant_98]

And I love the colors used in this forum :)

[celc01]

I think this is a great idea for a forum. It is usually all business. I actually have a question has anyone ever been to puerto rico. I want to go there for vacation and wanted to get some feed back on it.

[robin123]

Hey Ravish..
You are so right.. its not so much about the business.. its about the person!

It is great that you started this forum. ---- Earn $1,000 Per Day! ---- (http://randt123:praise: .1free.hop.clickbank.net)

[robin123]

Hey everyone!
I love this forum also.. its great to get to know each other as people.. not just business! :hello:

[karpie]

It really seems that this type of communication is becoming popular. I heard on the radio that myspace.com has the largest number of memebers in the world and a couple of years ago it was an unknown website

[celc01]

Yeah Karpie, I heard the same thing about myspace. The internet is just amazing!

Hi Lori,

I think it would be nice to hear a little bit more out of people.
Forums are a great place to get to know one another.
Not only that you get to practice writing when you post.
What would be a stimulating topic for everyone.
How about Adsense?
Anyone making money with it?
If so, share your story.

hi
this is a great idea.
like a few of you have all ready said ,its always best to get to know some one first before you talk business.

how many times has some one you don`t know just starting talking to you about there business...how do you feel?? i can tell you it puts me off right away and it does`nt matter how good the opportunity is i will say no.

so just think what people think when we do it to them,thats why we get people saying no to are oppotunitys.

now on the other hand if you take the time to get to know that person first then find out what they are looking for from working from home and help them to get that and then work with them,you will then find that person will not only become a good friend ,but will also work with you as a team to build the business.

thats what networking is all about working as a team, i work very closely with a large team and we call it are family,we have taken the greed out of networking to work together and help each other,thats what builds downlines and business TEAM WORK

[swkelley]

Funny, I wonder how many people really read the post!
Even though what I do is in my script I don't think it is evassive.
Like most, if you are interested you will click on it.

But back to getting to know one another.
We already know that most of us are here to advertise.
Forums are great for that!
But, you have to remember that we are people and we are here
to get to know one another, share ideas, examples and scams.
To think of anyone here as a customer needs to go back to school.

Someone here may become a customer, but untill then, get to know one another and experiance true networking at its best.

[sjfroh]

Why is it that when you request to talk socially, everyone has these HUGE banners advertising their business under their posts? Is it just in their signature?

Anyways, I am a WAHM mom, but I also own a preschool so I go their once or twice a week to check on it.
My WAHM business is slow. I do graphics and websites.
My kids just started back to school and I feel like I don't have enough work to do anymore, even though I'm always busy. Are we moms gluttons for punishment?

That's a breath of fresh air.

It's a full time job weeding through the spammy posts that come to the forum... and it's just plain unfortunate due to the nature of this and other such sites that really are here as a resource for succeeding in networking and business.

Take advantage of good conversation with peers everyone. Consider building a reputation based on sharing good information and just imagine the lead generation from that! Plus, the link in your sig is good spider food :)

Hi Jennifer,

I didn't know you owned a preschool! That's way cool.

Sorry to hear business is slow. PM me if you'd be interested in working on some banners for the WAHM banner section (http://www.buttonsandbanners.htm) of FreelanceMom.

[josi]

I saw a bumper sticker that read something to the effect of

A working mother is a test in sleap deprivation!

For me this is also true for working at home mother.

Anyone else fealing that way?

[cuellarhatcher77]

Oh yes, I'm sleep deprived although I'm a WAHM. I don't complain because I'm home with my babies :D

[josi]

Realy good point. Thanks

I have been bouncing from forum to forum, what fun. I never miss desperate house wifes, but tonight I am. Thanks for DVR I'll watch later. I have spent hours on the internet surfing before I came across this website. Almost all the info I found in weeks of work is all right here. To bad for me! I'll be sure to share this with others. My website also offers many links for WAHJ.

Visit my site for all sort of links, we even offer additional discounts. Local restraunts offer 50% off.

Oh no! I'm so so sorry to hear that. How's the little guy doing? I wish I had advice to give, but have no direct experience with it. My nephew had his out not long ago - he was three at the time. He's been so much better, it was worth the operation.

Lot's of IC! :icream:

Thank you for responding. He slept through the night. Yeah! He even looks a better today. Yesterday was hard, seeing my little guy in so much pain and feeling so helpless. Thanks again.

Hi Everyone, Just thought I'd pop on in here this morning and say hi. I love talking so this chatting forum is the right place for me. LOL!!!
Have A Great Day!!
Becky

[Audrey]

Becky,

I too love to chat. I've always had jobs that were customer service in nature. I also write, do you write?

[mom2my4kids]

It takes me awhile to get use to talking to new people. Just like in my business right now I'm a nervous wreck. LOL!! The only work I have done as far as talking to people is as a cashier and then my husband and I ran a small gas station here in our town. No, I don't like to write much.

[carol_degreg]

hello to all and thank you for the oppotunity to chat> i am hoping to do some networking with other moms who are working at home and find success stories> i have been so frustrated by all of the scams out there for working at home> i am looking to make some additional money and want to do work on my pc partime> it"s nice to be able to talk with others who i believe are in the same boat>

[mom2my4kids]

HI, Yes I know what you been about scams. Been there done that. Not sure what you are looking for to make some extra money but if you will check out my siggy and click on that and read more about it maybe I can help you out. As a mother of 4 it is the best decision I have made.... Looking forward to chatting on here with you... Take care

[tam2005]

Hi there Carol_degreg,

Welcome to the forum. Great to have you! :)

Unfortunately...I think we've all been scammed a time or two. :?

What kind of work are you looking for? A work at home job which usually requires no fees OR a work at home business which usually always charges a start up fee. There are many options available to you. ;)

Let us know and maybe we can lead you in the right direction.

Again welcome aboard!

[carol_degreg]

thanks for responding - i am looking to do typing at home on my pc or something along those lines. Any suggestions you have would be wonderful. :popcorn:

[mom2my4kids]

YOur welcome in the quick repsonse... Well my work at home business is not anything to do with typing. So guess I can't help you there. Hope you find something... If I find anything I will let you know... Take Care

[Audrey]

Carol,

Data entry at home is truly almost impossible to find. Having said that, click the links in Tammys signature. If there is something out there legitimate she'll have it posted on her site (s)

[Lori]

A lot of data entry work comes through elance (http://www.elance.com/c/splash/main/publish.pl?rid=AAGT&f=sellerfunnel1). But you really have to make a commitment to sticking it out there. There is a monthly fee to bid on the jobs that come in - and data entry in particular can be very competitive because there are a lot of offshore providers.

[Sillygurl2l8]

Hi there! I'm new the forum and just wanted to say hello to everyone! My name is Lillie and I'm a stay at home mom of two young girls aged 2.5 and almost 1. Hope to chat to you all soon!!

[lstreat]

Just saying hi to everyone! I posted an intro on another thread, but I wanted to say a big THANK YOU to freelancemom for starting this forum. I am hoping to meet other women with the same interests. Is there anyone from Toronto, Canada on this forum? Say hi! Hi!

[Audrey]

I'm in California. I do know a few of our members are from Canada. I hope they'll post and say hi.

[xocaiguru]

Work form home can be the greatest opportunity a mother can do. If you have kids you know what I mean. But finding the right work from home job can be a task within its self. I also tried data entry online and I must say a lot of them are scams.
I remember I sign up with this one company online I paid about $30 dollars and they sent me all these jpg files about a least 500 with in these files I had to re write these files into word doc. One jpg file had about 1000 to 2000 words and they said it most be finish in just a few days. I guess they made it impossible to finish so they could be keep the money and not pay me.

So I learn a big lesson from them. If you want to do Data Entry online, it’s best to go to Enlace or Get freelancer. Most be careful out in the world of internet.

[kagome]

Hi! I'm new here and I want to say hi to all work-at-home moms out there! :)
