I like Paul's video a lot and I hope you found it interesting, too. I like this business model because it is low-key. When I was a little girl, our Girl Scout troop funded activities by selling cookies. Going from door to door peddling cookies threw me into panic mode. Well, needless to say, I wasn't very good at it because of my timidity. If my parents hadn't bought my cookies, I would not have made even my minimum quota.
A lot of people feel uncomfortable about any kind of business where a product is offered but - let's face it - business income depends upon sales. Paul is very good at this; most of us aren't. But the good news is that you don't have to be. Ordinary people can do quite well in the chocolate business. Anybody can have 3% of Paul's results with persisitence and some effort.
I have a home based business now, this website and some others. I offer free content and get paid by advertisers or by actual purchases from visitors. Mine are eCommerce websites and let me tell you, I work at my business very hard. However, I must make my labor profitable.
So I searched for a product that would sell itself and a business model that would guarantee repeat purchases so I wouldn't be re-inventing the wheel all the time. I had to feel good about using the product myself and offering samples of it to friends and acquaintances without reservations. I just offer them a chocolate and let them make up their own minds about the product's value. These dark chocolates are delicious, dense with cocoa, low in cocoa butter, cold-pressed, diabetic friendly, packed with probiotics, antioxidants, and flavanoids.
Some people just want to eat the chocolates, but others go the extra step and make a livelihood.
If you are looking for some extra cash, but don't want to get involved in any pyramid scheme, you simply aren't going to find any business model more pleasant than gourmet healthy chocolate.
That's my "pitch" and as you can tell, I'm terrible at the hard sell.
There is another really good reason you might want to consider a business - a home based business makes a lot of expenses tax deductible. If you have set aside a home office where you work on your business, you get a percentage of the cost of your home expenses as a tax deduction. If you need to purchase software (and you actually use that software to run your business) it's tax deductible. Then there is paper, pens, folders, computers, printers, scanners and anything else that you use in the effort to make a living at running your business. These are very legitimate business expenses and you needn't feel bad about taking those deductions (provided you keep good records).
Here's a video from an accountant about keeping your taxes down. Uncle Sam will be happy when you start paying income taxes on your business income.
If my non-pitch "pitch" suits your temperament, too, and you want some extra cash and tax benefits, fill in the form and we can chat.
