My Secret Wish for A Business: A Wahm SiteI’ll admit it. I really want to have a site that helps women become work-at-home moms. I want to teach them how to stay home. I want to offer tips and tricks for every age, from newborns up to teens. I want to hand-hold them every step of the way. I want to teach them about choosing a business, balancing work and home life. I want them to have a shoulder to lean on. I want them to have someone to whine to. I want to be their biggest cheerleader. And I want to make a lot of money doing it…because if it’s your passion, the money will come - right?
I’ve wanted this from Day One of being a work-at-home mom. I don’t have to tell you that I’m the only one. There are so many wahm sites. We can’t even begin to count them. When I first joined Mom Masterminds, I learned the term USP or Unique Selling Point. What would be my unique selling point if I had a wahm site? Could I do it better than what already exists? Certainly I could do it my own way, with my own sparkling personality and years of experience tossed in. And what exactly would I be selling that would make the kind of money I’m dreaming of? Hmmm…
I still wonder if I could make it happen. Nothing makes me crazier than seeing a mom complain about not making any money in a forum post and then reading her signature that shouts, “Make Your Dream a Reality!” or my latest gripe “Six Figure Yearly.” I’d like for one mom…just one mom…to prove to me that she’s making Six Figures Yearly with that program. Wahm sites are crawling with hunters, looking for prey. Looking for that desperate mom - hungry to stay home with her babies. It’s ugly out her on the net.

LOL! Treece, I am not surprised at all about this. I’ve seen your interest in this through Mom’s Morning Show. You have a great head on your shoulders. You understand internet marketing and have real life experience marketing a product. I think you have something valuable to share with other WAHMs!
