I wish I had a supporting husband, and there for not having a supportive husband does not allow me to do much with my so called business I want. I want to go back to creating and personalizing Candy bar wrappers, Gift Can's, Business cards and staionary. I already own a Oki Data Color Laser Printer as well as Wrapcandy Pro. PSP and MS Office 2007. I have also other graphic programs as well. The only thing I don't have is the Color Toner that I need, which does cost an arm and a leg. How do I get my husband to support my idea or if not do you have any suggestion on how to get some money up to pay for my toner. ( I dont have good credit...sorry )

Any Ideas????

Why won't he support you? How much is the color toner? One of my suggestions is to find a direct sales rep and sell for her for a month and sell every single day until you earn what you need for the toner. There are hundreds of direct sales companies out there. Find one you like the products, then find a local rep, get some catalogs and sell until you have the money you need. I've seen several women do this and be able to make the purchases they needed.

This might sound like a dumb idea, but do you have things that you need to get rid of? A garage sale can sometimes net a lot of cash.

What about bartering with some someone? Perhaps you could offer your services to a company or business that sells/offers the products that you need to get started.

Judy,

Not a dumb idea at all. Having a garage sale, selling on ebay, this is a great way to get some cash!!!!

Hi, I sell custom party favors & promotional items too! I just love my wrapcandy software! Before I became involved in direct sales I had an ebay store to sell my items. Do you have samples of your items already made? If so take pictures & list them on ebay ASAP. I did very well on ebay. I know alot of direct sales consultants that LOVE my promotional items but I'm not allowed to sell them to fellow consultants. Target direct sales consultants! Do you have school aged children? I made lots of custom items for my daughter & her classmates, great advertising!
