I’m excited about what you shared in your free webinar on Tuesday. I’m interested in learning more about researching products and the need for/interest in them. Right now I sell a lot of services, but not products. I also want to learn how to create my website.

Thanks for all you do!

I enjoyed watching the recorded webinar yesterday. Our family wants to be in a position that we can bless others with our giving. Increasing our income through a home based business would be ideal because we are a homeschooling family. Thank you for the opportunity!

Hello Terri,
I enjoyed the online business session on Tuesday. (I actually listened after-the-fact on Wednesday AM.) During the last year I self-published a book and then ran into some technical difficulties concerning local business ordinances. Also during the last year, my daughter joined an Entrepreneur’s Club and began a business of her own. We are learning a lot! And I’d love to learn more!

I am trying to get all the information I can get about how to sell products online and develop a home business. I just don’t have a lot of money to spend. I have listened to other webinars on this subject from Jim Cockrum and MRS Homeschool. I’ve been inspired but I have more time during these summer months to wrap my brain around all this information. I have been home schooling for 13 years and have collected a variety of home school materials. I have been inspired to sell old curriculum. I’m ready to open a business with products and possibly share the work load with my homeschooled children. It’s something I’ve dreamed of doing and I would like to make it a reality.

Thanks for your free webinar the other day,
Marni

I was very intrigued by the free webinar you put on the other day. Thank you for giving this information to us! I believe the 4 week course would help my two businesses because it would give me a roadmap to follow. I’ve done “OK” up to this point on getting the word out, but I’m at a turning point in both businesses where I really need some exposure, and I’m just not sure what to do. It is very intimidating to me! The fact that you’ve been through the trial and error stages and forged a trail would save me countless hours attempting to reinvent the wheel. As most business owners would agree, I simply don’t have the time it takes to do it all. What better person to glean info from than someone who has successfully grown a business using these exact steps? Thank you for the opportunity to win this program.

I’m so excited about this class. I’ve often thought about starting a business but feared that I’d spend way too much time creating a product no one would want. The session on product research and creation should help solve that roadblock! Marketing is another area of concern, and the free webinar already gave me more confidence about that aspect. This complete course is literally an answer to prayer for our family.

Thanks for the Home Biz webinar earlier this week! I currently have a knitwear design business, but would like to branch out into writing about mothering and homeschooling. I have thought of e-books or unit study materials or something along those lines. I think your business class would help me as I’m formulating products and marketing them. I have really just begun to dream about what I want to branch out into, and so it is prime time for me to learn more about online business.

Julia May 20th, 2010 at 2:17 pm

There are so many aspects of your course that I am drawn to — I can’t pick just one! I like the fact that I don’t have to re-invent the wheel; I can implement your tried-and-true suggestions, and personalize them to create the right business for our family. I like the fact that you stress NOT going into debt, but starting SMALL and investing only what you can afford to lose. I like that faith in God is incorporated into every aspect of the business. I’m looking forward to getting started!

Dorothy May 20th, 2010 at 2:49 pm

This a subject I’ve thought a lot about. Wondering how to do ebooks & knowing what people will buy. I also have several daughters who I have been encouraging to find a product they would like to make and offer for sale. We have a home bakery and I would like to get into making homemade cereals to sell and need to know who to get my product out there. These are a few of my thoughts. Blessings to you for all your help to the homeschool community.

I really enjoyed the free webinar on Tuesday and am looking forward to hearing more great information in your 4 week course. My husband and I really had a reality check last year,a turning point I would call it. We had just arrived home from Africa with our 3 newly adopted children. My husband had used all his vacation on the longer than expected trip to Africa and when we arrived home one of our new daughters had to have emergency heart surgery. My husband could have taken family leave from his job, but without pay. Now that we had 8 children and had just exhausted all of our resources on the adoption that was not possible so he went to work while I stayed at the hospital and our older children took care of everything at home. It worked, but was not ideal. This really made us think about how great it would be to have a little freedom to arrange our schedule the way we needed it to be instead of having to ‘clock in’. We have been researching building an online business in our spare time, but now we are ready to learn more and get going on it. I am looking forward to learning about setting up an online presence, marketing and understanding how use technology such as blogs and Facebook as a way to generate traffic. Thanks so much for your great information!

Lynn May 20th, 2010 at 3:12 pm

Wonderful webinar! Lots of good information presented. I have a few small, scattered products/services that I sell, but I need to gain a focus and would like to expand onto the internet. I would love to learn about researching and developing a product.

Angela May 20th, 2010 at 4:08 pm

Terri,
I’ve been wanting this information for some time. I’ve looked into other options, as far as online business courses go, and haven’t felt very peaceful about purchasing the other products that I have found. But I feel completely at ease with your course. You are a very down to earth person, and I feel I can relate to you and trust that the information given will be what I need to get started and do it right.
One day, my husband and I would like to have our own home based business. For now, we need to start at the beginning with deciding on our product, and figuring out how to actually run a business online.
We can’t wait to listen in on Friday!

Laura Monroy May 20th, 2010 at 4:11 pm

Thank you for the webinar. It was very interesting. I am interested in attending your class and intering to win the drawing. I am very creative while it’s great to have lots of ideas it is just as frustrating to focus on one project or reproducible product to launch.

LaRessie May 20th, 2010 at 4:32 pm

I am very interested in learning more about how to run an online business. I have run a business online years ago and it was OK. But, I would like to get info from someone who is successful.

Debbie May 20th, 2010 at 5:34 pm

I enjoyed the webinar and found it full of practical information. I have a business (www.superstarspeech.com), but need help with marketing and building relationships with customers. I’d like to enter the drawing for your upcoming class.

Judy May 20th, 2010 at 6:06 pm

I love the idea of having Terri take us through the steps -indepth – and answering our specific questions. It encourages me so much that she begin as a computer/marketing whiz. )

Judy May 20th, 2010 at 6:07 pm

It encourages me so much that Terri didn’
t begin her home business as a computer/marketing whiz.
Sorry about that folks!

Marlene May 20th, 2010 at 6:38 pm

I haven’t had a chance to listen to the webinar yet. I had cleared my scheduled Tuesday for it, but the internet went out. We’re missionaries in Africa, but we’re heading back to the US in September. I’m looking for a way to help supplement our family’s income from home plus continue homeschooling our two children once we get back stateside. I really need some ideas and some solid advice instead of all the schemes I see on the internet.

Mary May 20th, 2010 at 6:39 pm

I look forward to listening to your free webinar, as I have been working “out of the house” this week. While my husband is unemployeed, I have increased my hours as a per diem employee, but both of us desire for me to be home nurturing and educating our three boys. My husband also desires to be the one making the major, if not entire, financial support for our family. We have looked into home businesses, but have not quite found the one that is right for us. we hope that your tutorials will give us insight in making rational and profitable decisions for our family. Thank you for offering these courses!
