1. Brainstorm every single business you COULD do from home. These will include your hobbies and your skills.

2. Check into local companies that might want to hire moms as telecommuters (data entry, word processing, desk-top publishing).

3. Talk to other moms who already work from home and find out what they do.

4. Scan your classified ads.

5. Network with people in your town (start with your family and friends and work out), network on-line (there are a million great on-line communities for moms), network through your church, your Chamber of Commerce, your Small Business organizations.

6. If you sell products, consider offering to do fund raisers for your locals schools or your religious community.

7. Donate products (or services) to charity auctions and raffles (and make sure your business card goes with each of your donations).

8. Hold open houses (and offer door prizes, free food (nothing too expensive) and a prize to whoever brings the most guests), especially near holidays
