Crazy Fox
OK - I've seen the ad on TV several times so I finally logged into the website which is 177crazyfox.com. Does anyone know what kind of business this is? Is it legitimate? Or are they just trying to get my $50.00? Thanks for the reply.

You're welcome, those types of business opportunities generally prey on folks doing things like trying to move to different locations but keep some kind of steady income.

There's not many at home jobs that don't require an initial investment, or education of some sort.
My cousin took a medical billing course, and if she would spend the money could work from home. Granted you need to find someone to hire you, but you could make ok money at it.
There may be data entry positions available that allow you to work from home.
Web design or maintenance could be a possibility, but that of course would require education.
You could also contact mail houses/print shops. I've personally run a huge mail campaign using all handwritten direct mail, and I know that there are companies currently using this technique. One company solicited my company to do it for us, but there cost was much higher than what we paid. You could in theory turn this into a business on your own. Find someone who sends out a lot of mail, like a Real Estate agent. Contact them and let them know you do handwritten mailers for their direct mail pieces. It's much more personal, and 99.9% of them get opened. They would handle the postage and delivery. We paid a woman 20 cents per piece, and she had her minions do all the handwriting. Granted we were doing around 50,000+ pieces a month though. If you don't want minions, you could do it yourself til carpel tunnel sets in, and make some extra money.
You could also solicit businesses to drop off door hanging marketing pieces.... you just pick them up, and then hire minions to drop them off. Just make sure you have a profit margin to make it worthwhile, and cover expenses (gas). Investigate around and find out what the going rate currently is... etc...
There's always the old stand by of getting licensed and turning your house into a day care as well. In todays age of both parents working, someone is always looking for a trustworthy less expensive care giver... just make sure you have a costco membership for the bulk mac and cheese
If you really want to work from home, and don't need to make a HUGE amount of money... just brainstorm. Instead of looking for something someone is offering, try and figure out something that people need... then provide that service.

Rule # 1 in business. Never trust a company with a name like Crazy Fox. Think about it: fox, a clever creature, known in pop culture to be deceptive and sly. crazy, is, well...crazy. So would you put your faith and time into a "start-up" company that might be sly, deceptive, and possibly insane?
