if youre going to start out doing crafts or something home based, throw a "party". serve refreshments......do a demonstration. get your invites to commit to having a party/demo at their house. give them a free gift if your sales generate "X" amount. lather, repeat, rinse. this is how you can build a home based business and its fun - you can keep ppl busy by incorporating simple games, trivia, - an hours work/demo.....
