Hello Moms!

Hope you all are in good health. My immediate and extended family have had some problems lately. Knowing how precious and fragile our lives are reinforces my gratitude to be able to work from home.

FreelanceMom tries to cater the information we have to women just starting out and women who have already established a home business. If you feel like we are missing some information that would be helpful to you, please reply to this email. I want to make sure we are meeting your needs.

If you are just starting a home business and have questions or need some inspiration, come on over and post at the forum. We'd love to help.

I don't mind bragging that I'm writing to you from my screaming new Windows Vista equipped HP! Sorry to disappoint you Mac fans out there... but there you have it.

Working from home doesn't mean we don't have business expenses! Make sure to set aside some of your profits to re-invest into your business.

As a Virtual Assistant, I can't do without the latest technologies, software upgrades, etc. It's just critical to be on the leading edge in my field. I feel the more seriously we take our business, the more confident and trustworthy we will come across to our clients and potential clients.

For example, if you are a VA and don't use a timer, how can you accurately record your time? I'm willing to bet that if you don't use a timer, you likely under charge your clients. If you're like me, you will always estimate low. Don't estimate, be exact. Your time is valuable. The way I figure it -- every moment I am working is time away from my children. One good and inexpensive little timer is Project Timer Lite.

That's it for chit chat... I've got some good stuff for you this month. So let's get to it...

Simple Tips for Getting Search Engine Traffic to your Website
Many home business opportunity sites miss the search engine marketing boat completely. If you advertise, you know how valuable traffic is to your site. Imagine getting much more traffic then you've ever seen to your website... for free!

Getting Out of Debt
Getting into debt is just too easy and this could not be more evident then it is right now considering the debt we are in. I read in a financial article that the average American has $8,000 worth of credit card debt.

The Art of Multi-tasking, HBWM Style
Working from home has some terrific benefits, but, unfortunately, some downsides as well. One disadvantage is that mom is still in the house and when the kids really need something they will track you down, sometimes at the most inopportune times. What to do? Hang up on the client? No. Push the kids out of the room and lock the door? Probably not. After all, the reason we are a WAHM is because we wanted it all, motherhood and our career all happening at the same time in the same place. There are solutions.
