More and more we see both Moms and Dads wanting to Work at Home more often than not so one parent can take care of the children. No one can take care or your children better than Mom or Dad.

We have all seen the ads, Work at Home Moms Jobs, Do you want to Work From Home, Quit your day job and there are hundreds more.

I don’t know what your reason is but it could be any one of the following:

* More time with the family.
* Less stressful atmosphere.
* Want to make some extra money to pay the bills.
* Out of work for any reason and simply need some income fast!
* Money for medical bills.
* Maybe you would like to be able to let your kids join more activities.
* Want to be a Stay at Home Parent, whether it is Mom or Dad.
* Want to have the ability to help your favorite charities more.
* Need more flexible hours due to your schedule.
* Just want to be you own boss for a change.
* Retired and need more money to pay for medical bills or medicine.
* Would like to be able to live the American dream for once in your life.

These are just a few of the many reasons people have for wanting to work from home.

Many of these programs will just take your money and are indeed Scams, however I think that if you do your home work there are many good programs that will allow you do earn some nice income while Working at Home. This is precisely why I research programs and put a specific page just for work from home Mom and Dad’s.

You will either need to do a lot of research yourself or find someone like my self, but not necessarily my site, and pick from the programs highlighted.

There are many good choices such as;

On line Paid Surveys
Data Entry from Home
Type at home
On line businesses
On line Dollar Stores
On line Jewelry Stores

These are just a few of the types of companies that are out there and available to you.

The cost to start a work at home business or simply working from home is minimal. So what do you have to do to get started?

1. Review the available Programs
2. Narrow down the choices to 1-3 programs
3. Find out which ones have a money back guarantee
4. Use your charge card if possible for further protection
5. Sign up & start making money!

I always like to mention that it may take minimal work, but you will still have to Work At Home. The reason I mention that is many times people think they can just sign up and the money will start flowing in. It’s a great way to work from home, but you still have to put in some effort.

In my opinion here is a list of equipment and software will you need to Work from Home?

For some executive hiring authorities who do not have any background in Sales, it can be a challenge to really know if they are making a good hiring decision when interviewing prospective Executive Sales Leaders, Managers, or quota carrying individual contributors.

Why? Because any halfway accomplished sales professional is capable of putting forward a sophisticated smoke & mirrors presentation in an attempt to close a deal.

The sales process and strategic complex selling can be somewhat mystifying for some executive hiring authorities.

The whole interview/screening process gets even worse if an executive recruiter is in the mix who lacks any direct background in sales and is incapable of properly screening/interviewing candidates in depth as a result. This can lead to disastrous hiring decisions given most businesses will suffer dramatically if the individuals who own producing a company’s revenue fail to meet their objectives.

A number of executive hiring authorities have asked me for example questions/areas of focus that I concentrate on when interviewing Sales Executives with respect to a candidate’s ‘battlefield’ acumen. The actual flow of interview information is what really dictates how and in what order the questions are asked.

1.0 Tell me about the politically complex sales you’ve directly executed/contributed on as a Sales Rep, a Manager/Executive, a coaching Manager/Executive.

1.1 Describe your approach to sales strategy, planning and execution (including any “solution selling” methodologies you’ve consistently employed) within the targeted accounts described in 1.0.

1.2 Describe how you “mapped” out the various “players” in the accounts and your specific approach/strategy with each member you called on within the targeted accounts described in 1.0.

1.3 Describe your approach to building/creating an opportunity within the targeted accounts described in 1.0.

1.4 Describe your method of approaching/building business relationships up/down/across the targeted account’s organizations described in 1.0.

1.5 Describe your approach to building and positioning a customer specific compelling value proposition at each of the levels you target within the accounts described in 1.0.

2.0 Describe an opportunity where there was no specific funding/budget originally identified/earmarked for acquiring your products/solutions. Specifically describe 1.1 – 1.5, including how you dealt with competitive product solutions or competitive projects competing for the same funding pool.

3.0 Describe your approach to coaching sales reps specifically in the context of how you’ve coached/influenced a sales rep’s behavior within the applicable accounts described in 1.0 while specifically focusing on the coaching areas described in 1.1 – 2.0 above.

4.0 How many of your reps have been over quota? This is an important area.

A sales manager can ride the success of a couple of people that “blow out” their sales quota while others consistently under perform and waste precious resources. You want a sales manager that can get a large majority of his/her people exceeding quota.

The object of 4.0 is to drill down (with the questions above) on how the manager worked with and developed the “under-performers”, and if they knew when to draw the line and coach someone out of their company.

Most people directly involved in politically complex selling, versus simply flying a desk and coaching from the sidelines, can answer these questions with a lot of detail.

The nature of the detail exposes if someone is just a gunslinger flying by the seat of their pants and/or lucky enough to be selling a product “that sells itself”, or if they are deliberate in their approach to a sales process associated with consultative solutions selling methodologies in politically complex, multi-functional, hierarchical client situations (e.g., selling into matrix organizational structures within the Mil/Aero industry, or large international corporations).

Drilling down on all the above in the context of someone being a coaching Manager/Executive will tell you how well they are able to influence the results their sales team delivers versus simply being a choke point for information and data consolidation (i.e., manage sales funnel data).

A Manager/Executive that is a good sales coach can add an unbelievable amount of value in the context of ensuring that the “right” deals are ultimately won (i.e., not all deals are good deals). A Manager/Executive that is a good sales coach can build a fantastic sales team that is welded together and that will walk through fire for their Manager/Executive/Company.

All of the above questions should also be put into context with the size of the candidate’s prior employers and the market/brand recognition associated with what they were selling. Someone whose successful selling experience only consists of selling name brand industry leading products/services for an acknowledged category leader could fall on their face walking into a never heard of them before start-up coming out of stealth mode attempting to close the company’s first sales.

Most of the above questions attempt to draw out a candidate’s method for producing a result/outcome. It is critical to make sure to drill into specifically – how – a candidate drove the results they are claiming. Focusing more one how someone produced a given result or outcome versus simply focusing on what results they produced will blow away a lot of the sophisticated smoke & mirrors any halfway accomplished sales professional is capable of putting forward.

Obtaining solid clear answers to the above questions/areas of focus will take an executive hiring authority unfamiliar with sales process and strategic complex selling a long way down the road to making a solid hiring decision.

Heres a scenario for you .. you go down to the your basement workshop thinking of working on something and you suddenly realize you cant get to your workbench because of all the stuff you, and every family member have left in there only to be forgotten. Has this or something similar happened to you? When this happens, you may just feel like its too much to do, but organizing your basement does not have to be an overwhelming job.

Just follow these few simple steps and you are on your way! If you dont have a basement, consider organizing your attic space so you can find what you need when you need it.

1.First, go through and find that which is obviously garbage and throw it away. Do not think twice about it — garbage is garbage, no matter how long you keep it.

2.Look around for a large space on the basement floor. Put down two large flat sheets and use one sheet for stuff that you love and need to keep (i.e., Christmas decorations are a great example), one sheet is for stuff you have kept and have not used in who-knows-how-long. Once all of the things in your basement are on those two sheets, we will move on.

3.Take all of the things on the pitch sheet and box them up. Either put them out for the garbage collection, have a yard sale, or donate them to a charity. Now go back and look at your keep sheet.

4.Your keep sheet should have things that are used periodically, such as Christmas decorations, or things that are used frequently but only in the basement. For things that are used often, keep them handy (such as at a workbench) and make sure they are neatly hung up or put in drawers. For things that are used periodically, put them in re-usable boxes or storage tubs. Then make sure the boxes or tubs are well-labeled so you can find the things when you need them.

5.Now with the things that you have in boxes or tubs, you should elevate them a few inches off the basement floor, just in case of flooding. No one ever plans for their basement to flood, but it DOES happen. I recommend getting old pallets from a shipping company or retail store—many will just let you take them if you ask politely — or use pieces of 2 x 4 lumber to elevate your stuff. This will prevent a certain amount of water-damage, but also permit you to treat for vermin in your basement, if appropriate. Roaches and mice do not like open spaces such as this — they prefer it when things are tightly against floors and walls and its dark.

Congratulations — your basement is now organized! Remember, you can use these same tips to organize your garage and attic, too!
