Top Ten Internet Businesses for Working Moms

Explore another career option for millions of Working Moms. They have the opportunity to manage an internet business while caring for their children. This is a timely topic for Mother's Day.

Knoxville, TN (PRWEB) May 8, 2006 -- Mother’s Day is right around the corner. For millions, Mother’s Day is a happy occasion that Americans celebrate the contributions of all mothers. Children scatter around department stores for that special mother’s gift. Have you considered giving your mother something different? The answer---the ability to care for their families while fulfilling their own personal dreams. Many working mothers are trying to have it all; however, it is becoming more difficult to achieve this balance. Are there any other options?

According to the 2005 Census Report, there are 82.5 million mothers in the United States. Working Moms made up 55 percent among mothers with infant children in 2002 and 63 percent among college-educated women with infant children in the labor force. In contrast, there were 5.4 million Stay-at-Home Moms in 2003. Some mothers have tried to maintain a healthy balance of work and family life but this leaves many “burnt out.” Some Stay-at- Home Moms have attempted to work at home, but many times find themselves the victims of home-business scams. Daryl and Estraletta Green, decision coaches with an engineering background, have researched the matter and offer these mothers another viable option.

Daryl, author of My Cup Runneth Over: Setting Goals for Single Parents and Working Couples, explains, “We have seen this trend for some time. Faith Popcorn, a futurist, discussed this phenomenon several decades ago. Many people would prefer to work at home where they are comfortable and safe. Giving mothers a vital business from home provides a very reasonable solution.” The Greens explain that a home-based business will probably increase a person’s workweek not decrease it. However, the flexibility of a home-based business is attractive to parents with children. Estraletta, a Generation Xer, agrees. She says, “Owning your own business is tough. You must conduct marketing, contact clients, and do administrative work. While you operate your business, you still have household responsibilities. Time management is critical for success.”

The Greens stay abreast of emerging trends that are taking place in the workplace and feel that operating a home-based business from the Internet provides long-term sustainability. Can you afford not to think about it? You can take some actions. Below are the Greens’ Top Ten Emerging Internet Businesses:
