Work from Home Success Stories
|
|
We
all have our own idea of what, when and how we plan to
work from home.
For some of us it is part time and some full time. You
have to choose the times and hours that work for you!
It doesn't happen overnight and takes time.
Below are some work from home success stories that are
worth reading! Our
Success stories are in interview form |

time.
-
Do you set "working hours"?
I do set working hours. I think it's important to be disciplined and consistent.

- Tell us about yourself and your business ( short bio)
I am a former securities trader who discovered a passion for graphic design and creating some really fun stuff!
As a native New Yorker transplanted to the midwest, I met my husband on a ski trip in Utah.
I have 3 kids, two boys and one daughter. I had wanted my own business for a long time and when my daughter was born, the timing was right.
For anyone just starting out, please don't give up. Don't have regrets. I tell my kids this.... Life if short. You don't want to wake up one day at 80 years old and think "What if?"
If you have a dream, don't give up. Conduct your business and your life with integrity and the purpose of helping others.
It will take time, money, perseverance and faith, but it can be done. It's not always easy, but you can create a great team of people to work with to help move your dream and theirs to reality.
- Description of your business /website
Patty's Pretty Paper is a premier stationery store & candle
shop
We design unique, fun & affordable personalized stationery items and candles for personal, gift-giving and business needs.
We especially love creating for people with uniquely spelled names as they most likely will not find what they are looking for in a traditional
store. Most recently, we added a "For Your Biz" department. We feel that by helping other small business implement a personalized customer care plan to create customer loyalty, we will directly contribute to the success of those businesses.
-
Do you think that for most people that the 1st year or 2 is the learning and growing time?
Patty says-I think the first couple of years are when we should be laying the solid foundation. We should always be learning and growing, but without a solid foundation to stand on, we will sink.
