I get paid 2.50 per hour babysitting 2 kids, am i being underpaid? -

It depends. Yeah you should get more but it depends how long you work. what do you do. Is it everyday or just a night or two a week? 5 dollars an hour would be the least i would take. That s two hundred a week if you do it every day and that s about what the parents would be paying a day care. If you just do it once or twice a week i would say at least 10 dollars an hour.

It depends on how old you are and whether or not the kids in question are your siblings and, if you are being paid by your parents, if thats all they can afford.

way underpaid!!!! Normal base salary is $7.50. I think you are better off working at McDonalds than baby sitting.

Um, hell yeah.

oh my god yes. it should be more like five or six an hour.

Oh god yes!!!

Yes. My sister get $10-15 an hour! then she got tips.

Working at victoria secret what open-ended questions can i ask the customers? -

i feel like im not asking the right questions.And i feel like I am upsettings my managers and I think Im going to get fired.

Introduce yourself, let the customers know about the current sales. Ask if they need help with anything. Keep a tester of your favorit lotion or something and walk around to different customers saying this is my favorite scent it s called ..... would you like a sample? Ask if they are shopping for themselves or someone else.

Well HummingBird sounds good. Furthermore if your good with reading people, you can probably weigh what they may find appealing.Can anyone help with mine?http://answers.yahoo.com/question/index;��

Maybe you could ask them what they are looking for? And ask them what colors do they like?Or if it is for them or is it a gift?

Hi! I m *blank*. How may I help you today? Politeness goes a long way:)

How would I go about starting an online clothing business? -

My sister and I want to start a clothing business online, but we ve never done anything like this before, so there s many things that we are unsure about. We already know what type of clothing we are going to sell and who it will target. I m planning on creating my own website and graphics as well. I guess what i m most unsure of is who I can buy the clothing from that will allow me to resell it. (I need white clothes, such as t-shirts and sweatshirts, etc.) If you ve ever done anything like this, could you please give me any information that you think will be helpful? Thank you!

.. Ok.. you better will need a plan, and market study first ... clothing business online, is very tough (alot of competition and how you would attract customers and traffic to your online, while 30%-50% of online small business deal with clothing??.. plus the big giant retailers as well ??.. My advice if you want to do it, better to get a location for a retail store to direct customers. If you decide to go for a regular retail store.. it will Depends on your location first.. (High traffic location is a must for clothing business).. what will be your specialty ?? adult / females/ males/ or everything ??.. it will cost you alot much if you get everything at once as a start.. and you would not have the nice variety for each devision you want ..If you look for specialty first , as women clothes, or men, or kids, it would be better to concentrate and make good name for your start, with less money damage if it turns out to be something else. plus the rest of the other money you would save for back-up plan, advertisment, etc....there is many places.. yet the quality, and the shipping prices will make the difference.. what you will need to think before start :-1- Location, Location, Location.............. high traffic with $5,000.00 better than away location with $1,000.00 rent, etc... 2- what will be your basic main customers ?? Young adults?? teens ?? working women ?? etc.....3- You look for everything to have at once is very bad for your budget, (Except if you have at least $150,000.00 ) yes i m serious.. You can start small (Not actually small) with $10,000 and you specified only with women trendy clothes you will have a decent collection which can cover a store of (2000 feet / 600 Meters).. Yet there is plenty of other factors as well.. and there is seasonal items and clothes, etc...... Need any help, will be more than glad.. Actually we have now pallets of (100pcs- 500pcs each) at a decent prices, as we are wholesalers and stores.. and we need to rennovate our stock each campaign (2months)..so contact me if you are interested and will send you some photo s and site access,,.. or if you only have additional questions..Good luck, and have a great day ..Source(s):Ex. manager for a chain retail stores, for more than 5 years ..

Try ebay first then start your own website or retail store.

I started out doing the same thing and have a chain now. There were MANY headaches and times I wanted to quit (it aint easy), Since you will be doing your own graphics, and want white t-shirts sweatshirts I think I know where you are going with this (you can do book bags, backpacks, totes and other stuff as well). You can contact me I will tell you a good place to start for your whites (you do not have to buy in bulk, you can pick the brands, the shipping time is 3 days max so you do not have to order until an order is placed to you). I have no relations with them other then starting out there for some of my stuff, lol so sorry cant get you better prices). I have done every aspect of both online and brick mortar stores, so can answers most questions you would have.

Hi Kelly,Any business requires some research. It helps to have a plan.Planning is key. In order to plan effectively, you must conduct some research. What do you need to provide your services? Who will you provide them to? Who are you competing against? What makes you better; gives you an edge ? How are you going to reach your prospects/potential clients? Answering these kinds of questions gives you a basis to begin a business plan.You can download my free research outline at www.abusinessmentor.comIt should certainly guide you in the right direction.Good Luck!

How can a stay at home mom earn a little extra cash on a semi regular basis? -

Please don t say get a job I live in a really small town it s near impossible to find a job thanks in advance for suggestions.

I live in a small town so I know what you mean, Trish!There really are a lot of opportunities available once you start to look for them. Part of deciding what to do to earn extra cash depends on what you re interested in. For example if you like to write, providing SEO articles might be a possibility. If you enjoy crafts, maybe you can do something along those lines.A quick, easy way to make a few quick dollars might be to sell excess things you have around the house on eBay. Take a look on eBay to see how similar items are listed and what they re selling for. Then you can sell similar items. Once you get the hang of eBay, you can sell your own items (such as crafts you make) or items you pick up locally from yard sales and similar.Another approach would be to check out books on Amazon. Go to Amazon.com and search for books on part-time income opportunities or part-time businesses or spare time income . Amazon let s you search the table of contents and index of the books so you ll be able to find a whole list of extra cash generators (and probably many that you never thought of). If you find a book that looks particularly helpful, you can buy it or borrow it from your library.These are a few thoughts to get you started. I wish you good luck and would be happy to hear what you decide on.

Trish, if you like the web you should look around for some simple ideas. The great thing about the internet is that it doesn t matter how big or small your town is ;)I ve from 5 yrs of research that there are a lot of good solutions for anyone to stay at home and earn extra money, but the most important thing is finding something that you are passionate about. Otherwise you will lose interest and give up on what you re doing which will put you back at step 1. I found this interesting site that has a TON of ideas on it that you might want to check out, hope it helps.

Hey!Basically, there are 2 ways:1)BloggingBuild a blog, create a brand, sell advertisement space... it is fun, but it takes a bit of time. If you are not sure how to do this, I would start with the Blog Mastermind course by Yaro Starak. Here, i found some info about his course:http://making-money-blogging-mastermind.��2)Affiliate marketingIf you don t want to blog, learn sell products (without spending a dime). If you are not sure what to do, I would go through the Stephen Pierce s course, because he is getting great feedback. Again, if you need some info first:http://make-money-working-at-home-mrmi.b��

I know there are a lot of scams out there so be careful! Don��t listen to the people though who say they are ALL scams. They are not actually ALL scams, just a lot of them are! LOL! In fact Yahoo Finance says that for every 1 legitimate home based opportunity there are 57 scams!At any rate��I am actually a nurse and I love working outside the home but I know a lot of people want or need to work from home. About 2 years ago my sister finally found a legitimate company that��s been in business for 20 years. I don��t know too much about it but she��s been doing it for 2 years now, about 20 hours a week and she makes about $40,000 a year. I know it��s legit because they have dozens of fortune 500 partners, they are members of the US Chamber of Commerce and of course, I��ve seen her paychecks, LOL! She says she loves it! She gets to stay home with her kids which is pretty cool! It��s not a job working for someone else but instead she sets her own schedule and she determines how much she makes. The more she puts into it, the more she gets out. I wish jobs were like that because I know I work way harder than some of the nurses here who are getting paid the same as I am! LOL I hope this helps you! Good Luck in your search!-Michelle

Things I look for in a business are free or low cost to join, free or low cost to run, some level of training and/or support, a website or information on how to create one, and a simple duplicatable business success system. The company and people should support and train you because when you make money they make money. I really like businesses that can be run part time, from home, and online.

I do some part time online work, its really boring and the only thing that convinced me it wasn t a scam was the fact that it didn t ask for any more information than an email, name and address. No credit/debit or bank account information needed.I m not going to tell you will make enough to live off of though some members do I make around 20-50 dollars a month. THis month I hope to have 30 by monday at midnight (the last day of the month is the cut off) and I will recieve a check around 12-23 or 12-27 (holidays slow down mail)I just put in 30 minutes to 2 hours depending on my homework housework and kids a night.Check it out give it a month and if you aren t satisfied then you can cancell your account with no problemsbit.ly/makemoremoney

My mom does daycare. Before that, she work at a dentist office.

How can i tell my friend i cant babysit? -

today my friend asked me to babysit because they are going to a wild party tomorrow but me and my husband planned to do some business that night what should i tell her

Just tell her you can t, that you re busy that night. It s pretty simple.

You shouldn t compromise your evening if you already had plans. If she s a good friend, she won t get ticked if you decline. If saying no makes you uncomfortable, you could always bring a few available babysitters you know of to the conversation, and offer her some options besides you.Good luck! Have fun with your... business. ;)

Start off cooly, like oh I might... I might be able to... let s see.... Then after (you know you really can t) just make up a GOOD excuse and give reasons- always give reasons (more persuasive). Apologise and then do a Maybe next time...I might be able to....just not today...

Something came up. If you cannot watch the baby, then you cannot watch the baby! Do NOT feel like you are obligated to babysit, it s their baby not yours.

do business while you babysit. you can do business any time. babysit.

Very simple. You need to tell her that you had other plans. The best time to have done this was when she first asked but the sooner the better.

Tell her, I m so sorry but me and my husband have planned some things that night, is there anyone else you can get?

oh god. babysit. its not gonna kill you, you ll get other chances to do some business.

I would just tell her your situation. If she s a good friend, she ll understand why you can t babysit.

What did you say when she asked you?Why couldn t you just say Sorry, I can t. ?

that your bussy but also tell her a friend that maybe could baby sit???

tell her you re busy and you cant babysit...

sorry, we have plans.

that you cant?
