On occasion, I am featuring a work from home parent on the Mom Pays for College Blog. Frederick Pohl helped me on my extreme sports video blog. He made all new graphics for the site and moved it to a new location. I found Frederick on http://topsoul.elance.com.
If you ever need some kind of “e” work done, elance is a good resource. I’m republishing a blog post from elance about Frederick here. He’s got an inspiring story! I do recommend Frederick for graphics or web work. I’m sure he has other talents too, so check him out if you need some help. Take a look at the http://extremesportsblog.com to see some of his work. Here’s the post from elance:

Elance provider Frederick Pohl’s lifelong dream was to become a successful business owner and family man. His dream became a reality earlier this year when he launched his design business, Pohl Media, on Elance – giving him more time to spend at home with his new daughter.
How did Frederick do it? Here’s his story in his own words:
“After college, I spent ten years working for a number of small businesses while trying to build my design business, Pohl Media, in my spare time,” Frederick explained.
“In 2007, my wife and I were blessed with a baby girl and I decided to quit my job to stay at home with her and work on developing my business.”
“I joined Elance in May of this year and since then, my life has changed so much for the better,” Frederick said. “Because of Elance, I can successfully run my business from home and I don’t have to leave my daughter in day care all day.”
The flexible arrangement of working from home has enabled Frederick and his family to stay in their current location of Gainesville, Florida. “If not for Elance, I would have to move my family to a big city to get the same type of business and income I earn through Elance remotely,” said Frederick.
Almost more important than the earnings, Frederick says, is the quality of work he is finding through Elance. Since joining, Frederick has used almost every graphic design skill in his tool belt including design applications such as Flash, PHP and MySQL.
In fact, Frederick has found so much work on Elance, he is upgrading from an Individual membership to a Small Business membership, and hiring local designers to help him turn jobs around quicker and take on more projects.
“Before Elance, I tried everything to get work. I ran ads in the Yellow Pages, sent out e-mailers and postcards – I spent over $1,000 on local advertising just to get a few good clients,” Frederick said. “But thanks to Elance, Pohl Media is expanding fast and new projects keep coming in.”
Congratulations, Frederick!

Next week my oldest daughter takes the PSAT/NMSQT which is a practice test, except they use the score to place kids on the list for the National Merit Scholarship Award. This award is worth about $1,000 for one year. I found this and other things out about the getting into college process last night at her school. The college guidance counselors had a meeting for parents to fill them in on the process and answer questions.
My kid goes to a college prep school, Greenhills School in Ann Arbor, MI, and they have a great “get into college” support team for the kids. I’ll share what I learn with you along the way in case your out of the loop on that process. Or in case you kid doesn’t tell you.
One peice of advice for the SAT and ACT test reporting is not to send them out automatically when the test results are processed. Yes. You can save a few dollars and perhaps some time this way but if your kid wants to retake a test or perhaps doesn’t want to send a particular test score to a certain college then you are safe. You can make the decision after you find out the scores.
Taking the practice tests will not improve your intelligence but it will help to figure out how much time to spend on each section; figure out how to skip a question and go back later without messing up the order of the answers, and see where you need to improve the test taking process in general.
I’ll share more as I find out. Hope this helps.

If your 11th grader is thinking about college, you need to know that the Princeton Review gives your kid the chance to take a free SAT or ACT college prep exam about 2 - 3 times per year. All you need to to is call their toll free number and set up the test date in a location near you.
There is also an option to get a test sent to your house to take at home. This might be OK if you have the discipline to time the test and provide a location with no distractions. However, it’s probably better practice to take the test at a location away from home to better mimic the actual testing environment.
Once you get your results back, you’ll be able to see where your study efforts are best spent. No sense studying for math if you got them all right.
I’ve also read that kids who over study or study too close to the test date do worse than kids who just take it in stride. So don’t overdo it or the results could backfire.
The Princeton Review also coaches kids in particular areas or they can take a course to prepare for either the SAT or the ACT. You can find local professionals and teachers at your school that can help coach your kids through the process.
It’s a good thing to try and do well on these tests since better scores may help your child get scholarships or get into their preferred college.
They also have an option to take online tests. Check them out at http://PrincetonReview.com
Finding enough business opportunity seekers to expose to your Best MLM Company can be simplified if you are using the correct tools. I just did a bit of research and found an MLM email lead package for $277 per month that comes with an auto responder system and a set of prewritten emails. Currently there is a waiting list for the auto responder system but you could buy just the 10,000 leads per month for $250.
The problem is with 10,000 leads, unless you have an automated way to handle them you are going to be spending an inordinate amount of time sending them out. That is 333 per day, every day for 30 days, day after day, week after week, and month after month. That is too much time to be spending as a work from home mom, and maybe you’re attending college too. You need an automated system.
You will need a place to send your leads to review your offer so you’ll need a website. I put together a brief list of some of the components of an online marketing system a person might want to use as an FYI:
This list could go on and on, but let’s stop here.
You see there’s a need for a way to find and filter through large numbers of business opportunity seekers. Luckily for you, you can now maximize the throughput of your Best MLM Company with the use of Sponsor Daddy.

A work from home mom will gain the most rewards from a residual income opportunity over a traditional job if she gets in the right business and works it well. A residual income opportunity is one where, by the design of your business, your business is leveraged. That is; for the amount of resources you put into it you get a significant proportion more out of it.
One example of a leveraged business or a residual income opportunity is real estate for investment. Let’s say you could:
Also included in property investment are depreciation tax advantages and property value appreciation over time (yes, I know right now property values are dropping) and you will gain there also. So real estate investment is highly leveraged.
The risks involves include tenants that trash your property or don’t pay, decreasing property values and property loss due to unforeseen events which can be insured for.
What if you don’t have $10,000 and a great credit rating or don’t want to work for tenants? Then one of the best ways to make money is with an MLM or multi level marketing business. Everyone from Donald Trump, Robert Kiyosaki and Oprah Winfrey are claiming that these residual income opportunities are a great way for everyday people to leverage their time and limited financial resources and make good money. These people are rich. Do you think they’d be recommending you work for $20 per hour as a great opportunity when this kind of business if done properly could get you in the $10,000 per week range? This is one of the best ways to make money; use a leveraged residual income opportunity. It is great for a work from home mom.
How is a successful MLM business leveraged? Simply stated you find several business partners and nearly everyone else you find does the same. Everyone participating gets a piece of the pie. The more people consuming products, the more you make.
People often refer to these businesses as scams or pyramids. Believe me. There may be a few mlm scams out there but most of the well known ones are very legitimate businesses with excellent products, training and resources and are designed to make you, the work from home mom, a lot of money, legally.
These are great residual income opportunities for a work from home mom since you are your own boss. You set your own hours and work as hard or easy as you want. Rewards come from your own efforts.
Someone I heard the other day mentioned his definition of a financial pyramid and I had to laugh. So company BCA (Big Corporate America) has a president or two, a bunch of vice presidents, executive directors and 26 levels of people higher than the workers that actually do the work, not just plan and organize it. The people at the top make way more money than the people at the bottom. There are less people at the top and more at the bottom. Tell me, if you’re not the guy at the tippy-top, do you want to spend your life in this corporate pyramid?
In a legal MLM business, each and every person has the same chance to make money. You are rewarded by your ability to add motivated team members. It’s much more “fair” that rewards be given to those who earn it. Any WAHM know about fair right? Your kids remind you very day.
One piece of information that I have observed is that you don’t need to personally sponsor a lot of people in order to be successful in an MLM business. I’ve heard it from three different people who are extremely successful in MLM. One has personally sponsored only 20 people and has a team of over 2,000. One person works solely using the internet and has personally sponsored 36 people and has a team approaching 4,000 and this occurred in about three years. One guy said he and his wife sponsored again about 20 people in 18 months and has built a large team and gained a significant residual income.
With most network marketing opportunities you’ll be breaking even on your investment after getting about eight people in your team. In the beginning it might seem challenging to find people interested in joining your business. If you make a commitment to make it work, it will. You must keep at it. You need to sort through people as fast as possible in order to succeed quickly. Your job is to find the right people, not convince the wrong ones.
I’ll be writing more on these topics soon. Get a copy of at least six ways a work from home mom can make money for college or anything else. http://mompays.com. There are several residual income opportunities identified in the free audio and report.

What are SMART goals? And why are smart goals or any other goals necessary? S M A R T is an acronym for:
If you are a work from home mom and interested in making money in an online business opportunity you need goals. If you don’t have a target that you are shooting for then anything you hit will be right, which could be nothing. So why would you waste your time in a homebased business without goals?
A Specific goal to earn money in an online business opportunity would be to sponsor three new reps this month using the internet as a primary means of finding and converting prospects. In order to do this you would need some kind of internet network marketing system.
Measureable is straight forward. Did I sponsor three new people using my internet network marketing system, yes or no?
Is your goal to sponsor three new business reps in one month Attainable? Achieving this goal is going to require action. If your goal is huge then it will require massive action. Understand that making goals is great but you have to put action in to get results out. Are you personally capable right now to reach your goals? Maybe you need to develop some new personal skills, get very creative in your approach or find a system to help you reach your potential. Whatever your goals are this is the time to figure out how to get there. Never say no and you’ll find a way.
How do you know if your goal is Realistic? Do you have the skills, time and desire to attain them? How motivated are you to achieve your goals? If you were just starting out in a new MLM business with no previous experience and said your goal was to sponsor twenty new people this month that just actually might be doable, given your enthusiasm is extremely high right now. However, if you thought you’d get there by only talking to twenty people then that would be unrealistic. A lot of people are not as excited as you are right now for a residual income business opportunity so you’ll have to sift through many people to find the ones that are ready.
Is your goal Timely or Tangible? Yes. Sponsoring three people in one month is exact in terms of time and it is something that is tangible. It’s real and you can count on it.
To summarize, if you want to be making money in an online business opportunity you need to set SMART goals, goals that are specific, measurable, attainable, realistic, and tangible. With a plan and a online network marketing system and a great deal of motivation and determination, a goal of sponsoring three new business representatives in one month is very realistic.

I have been writing about college, scholarships, grants and so forth for a while now and I will continue to share items of interest about college occasionally. But as of now my focus is to give specific information on how you can earn money for college, either for yourself or your kids, by working at your own business, primarily home based.
Anyone can get a job working for someone else. Most people do and it’s perfectly good. However, as a busy single mom, you need more time an more money than a trade dollars for hours job can provide. If you’re interested in keeping your current job and making extra income by working at home, great. If you need to get a day job for a while, then by all means take care of yourself. Hopefully soon you’ll become so successful that you won’t have to keep the regular job if you don’t want to. Then you can do whatever it is you want, travel with your kids and stay in nice places and not have to worry about the expenses, pay for college, whatever.
Working for yourself can be a huge struggle. If you’ve found something that has really made you successful financially overnight, I want to know about it. So send me an email. I have found that any reward is going to take effort. But the great thing about having a leveraged business is that the rewards can be larger than your input over time if you plan well. And you get to keep them.
Looking forward to sharing what I learn in the hopes in will benefit you too.

As a single parent or even if you live in a two parent household, paying for your kid’s college education is a difficult thing to do. There are several ways in which not only you but your student can pay for college cheaper and faster. Your kid’s college education is important and you need to be on top of what will get him or her through the four years, or maybe even twelve years, the cheapest or fastest way possible. Knowing a few easy steps will be beneficial for both your financial obligations and their career after college.
One thing you can encourage your student to do is to take courses from the local community college. They complete their first two years at a community college and save thousands of dollars then move on to a traditional college. Make sure that all the credits they take transfer to a four year college or university and then they can finish out their last two years as a junior and senior at a college of their choice. By going to community college the classes are smaller and your child will have more help than in a traditional four-year college where the classes can be upwards of 400 students large. They will have a chance to work on their GPA and other academic endeavors so that they may earn more scholarships and grants for completing the last two years of college.
Another way to save money is find the right courses for your student. Help them fill out their applications and put in as many applications as possible. Sometimes when a recruiter at a college cannot fill the quota they will reduce the tuition price or offer a grant to get your son or daughter into the college. Your kid’s college education will depend on them as far as their work ethic and their ability to achieve. But if they have a good work ethic in high school and have the qualifications a college wants, the college will give them incentives for entering their ranks of academia.
Have your child look into work programs. Some corporations will pay for your student’s tuition given a promise to work for them for a couple years after they get out of college. These types of grants are usually for high school students that have a high ability and work ethic. You as a parent can help and instill a work ethic and develop academic ability in your child, while they are still in high school. This will give them a better chance to obtain these types of grants and be able to go to the college they want and have a future employer pay for it.
There are many ways to pay for your kid’s college education but look for the ways that are free first. Use only financial aid and student loans as a last resort. You don’t want your son or daughter’s day of graduation to include a field of worries about how they or you are going to pay back the student loans.
