Almost Had It-Welcome to the Home Based Business Bloopers Show!

By: Mr. William Fontane Shut

Whoa! Maybe it would have been wise of me to borrow my son's baseball catcher's facemask today. 2:35pm on a Wednesday afternoon and there has been no less than 5 baseballs catapulted my way from the end of various bats. I'm here to meet up with my frat brother Tom to talk about what's been happening in both of our home based businesses.

The Tigers are destroying the Blue-Jays and my college chum and I are trying to out-exaggerate each other about our former prowess back in the day. As is customary when we meet up, we jokingly make a coke toast to the managers that let us take the day off to enjoy the ball game. Good thing we're our own bosses with home businesses, great guys really, because we allowed ourselves 24, 48, or 72 hours to take some "me" time.

At a time in the day that's usually reserved for working at someone else's company, I'm enjoying a hotdog and a soda at a beautiful stadium. And though I'm here, my home business continues to pump out between $200-$360 everyday and even more if I actually work. After over a decade of looking, I've finally found a home business that allows me to live a charmed life.

Foul Ball! I got it! I got it! I thought I had it because I used to play softball for a local team. It's been years since those days- way before I started my home business and I quickly remember that I'm no athlete once the ball hits my knuckles. Hey, maybe this could spark a new idea for promoting a new product.

Ouch! Cursed is my home based business-because years ago would have had me in a cubicle at a job I hated at this time of the day. But I'm the dummy that thought he was Willie Mays so my home business is off the hook. My injury is just another safety hazard associated with having financial freedom.

Another home run, but I let this one go by without so much as a body lean in that direction. I'm deep in conversation now and I'm on cloud nine bragging about my home based business' two most popular products. My buddy is just as excited about some new marking technique he discovered that doubled his earnings from last year. As two more foul balls barely miss our ducking heads, we both have good news about forging a new partnership with an up and coming marketing company. Low and behold we're talking about the same company that has given us both the opportunity to grow our home businesses exponentially. If my old college chum thinks this deal can work for him, then I know I've made the best decision for the expansion of my company.

The final few lead changes go unnoticed as we unravel the types of splits we've convinced this new company to give us. My old frat brother jumps out first, and looking to win our traditional "Slickest Home Based Business Move Ever" award (which is a beer from the loser), he spouts on about how he got the company to agree to give him seventy-five percent off of every product he sells. But I quickly boast about how I set up a marketing co-op with the company-essentially doubling the advertising dollars I have at my disposal.

The game had finally come to an end and me and my slightly bruised ego left feeling very grateful for being allowed to live the life I've always wanted. If it wasn't for my home business it would be impossible for me to do things like take cruises 12 times a year, work from anyplace that has online access, and watch my kids do what kids do. It started by me just saying what I wanted out of life and chasing my words with actions until I caught my dream.
