It is time to turn your hobby into a business and make that CASH!

So, you've been getting rave reviews from friends and family, about that luscious cinnamon soap you make and hand out for Christmas and birthday gifts. Crank it up a few notches and "do bizness"!
I plan to do just that and I'm finding that it's not as complicated as you would think. Research and find the county clerk's office in your town, so you can register as a legit business. Pick a name (do an online name search to see if it's available to use) and forge onward, step by step.

Marketing your business is easy AND low cost these days with available social networks, at your fingertips! Try Facebook and YOUTUBE, initially. Do flea markets, fairs and home parties. Although family and friends are the first to support you, word-of-mouth and good networking skills will explode your products into homes all over the world. Read up on business etiquette and ethics, stay prepared AND THE SKY IS THE LIMIT!

Offer opportunities to help others learn your skills and/or give a percentage of your sales to the charity of your choice. Doing this will keep you advancing and prospering! Get paid for what you love to do and always keep the "hobby" in your business.
Dreams do come true.....
