Thinking About a Home School Business?

Ever wonder if a home school business could help your kids learn some practical business skills to prepare them for life?

There's lots of talk these days about starting a home school business as part of your home school curriculum.

Maybe you've been reading on home schooling websites about how beneficial entrepreneurial experience can be for young people. After all, even if nothing else, a business offers a great practical application for developing writing and math skills!

Our Home School Business Journey

Although I knew nothing about a home-based small business, I thought my kids should get some experience with what it is like to have a business.

So I took the plunge and signed up for a rather expensive course for how to start an Internet business from a home schooling curriculum-seller. I learned a lot about all sorts of acronyms – SEO, html, jpeg, ROI, affiliate, Adwords, Adsense – well, you get the idea!

But as I finished the course, I realized that I had lots of information, but none of the technical tools to put it into practice. What’s more, buying the technology to implement what I needed to do would take way more time and money than I wanted to invest.

That’s when I came across Site Build It! (SBI!), a company that helps people build Internet-based businesses. I read about how people can turn interests and hobbies into an on-line business and how SBI! provides all the tools you need.

I was impressed with SBI!’s integrity, in their approach to business that sees success as a natural result of serving others by offering them helpful information, building a relationship with them, and then monetizing in a natural way. You can take the quick tour here.

I was encouraged by stories of how other moms are building businesses for the future for themselves and their kids.

SBI! provides all the information and tools so that even a non-techie like me could build a web-based home school business. I don't have to hire a web-master, buy new software, or keep up with the latest technology. I let SBI! do all that. I simply work on my site after the kids are in bed, writing about what I know, home schooling curriculum.

A Community to Help Build Your Web-Based Business

One more thing that SBI! offers is the community on the various forums. I can go online at any time to ask questions about any aspect of my website -- no matter how dumb (believe me, I need all the help I can get!). Someone has always answered promptly, often encouraging me and rooting me on! These are real people with real stories -- even homeschoolers -- who are choosing to take a different path and follow their dreams with SBI!.

How Successful is This Site?

Well, since my goal with this home school business isn’t to become rich, my measure of success isn’t mostly monetary (though we did go out for ice cream when we made our first money!). On the other hand, lots of people do make enough money with their sites to become their own bosses or fulfill their dreams, as you can see from reading some case studies.

Do you have more questions? Go ahead and ask the folks at SBI!. They can tell you all about their money-back guarantee and answer all your questions.

You may have a dream for your children, as I did. I'm thankful for SBI! for helping us see that dream take shape. I pray that your dreams will lead you to true joy and success, both in your home schooling and in your life.
