I am a mother of 4 and critically ill with having well over 45 + face & Brain surgery's, not to mention all  the other surgery's and medical problems due to complications,
   The reason I am writing you is because I'm need some "Personalized" help in seeking a way That I can bring in a income to my family, I want to teach my children that it does not matter the situation that you keep on trying, I want to do Honest work at home that has no start up fees. I only get $350,00 a MT disability and no other help, So I need to find a job that I can work at home,.I have always ran my own company's . I had my own practice in Sports Medicine before I got sick then I use my Knowledge  in Homeopathic Medicine, To make Herbal scent moist heat packs and eye pillow, I made natural Soaps and Body Oils, and I even Made whole made Chocolates. My 4 children as well as myself would take it the flee market every weekend and sell what we had made all week. Around that time is when all the brain surgery's  started and 18 hrs a day of Intravenous medication, It was bit difficult hauling 4 children all my product and walking with in Iv tubes coming out my chest, what a site that was "lol" we managed for a while sadly the demand for he product became to great for me to make all by myself everyday in my kitchen,
  That started me studying gemstones after brain surgery, I spent 2 years studying gemstones, I did sell high end jewelry on Ebay , but  During a move we were robbed. "long story"  they stole Everything we owned I do mean everything and the insurance did not cover excuse they found a loop hole as usual. Now I have no other income, Please Know that I'm not a Victim I am a Survivor & I am very blessed I have the privilege to be with my children as they grow up when they said I would not live this long "what do they know" "lol". 
    I have learned many life lessons, I can't do much physically now but I do some kind of craft everyday with the younger children,We have done so many different craft. We draw paint, do clay, the favorite is making Jewelry but that is a treat because the pretty crystals are expensive, I can work on the Computer,
   I know the end and out of a how to run a company to having happy personal , they will do a better job, To satisfying the Hardest to Please customer, I keep my self up to date learning and studying the newest trend to the next big craft, I know how to do Advertising, I like being very creative, I know how to do import and export, In my journey, I have been blessed to learn many Life lesson along the way. I have been on the Top and I have been on the bottom. I will not give up and I will not ask for sympathy, I'm not different than anyone else, I just have a few Challenge but don't we all. The reason I won't sell on Ebay, Is because the market has changed and the fees are to high, There only a few ways to make money on Ebay now, One is to be a Huge company that is able to import the inventory, Or to lye, If I can't do it honest It's not happen.
       Oh my I can't believe I just told everyone all this, I guess it because I know if there an opportunity for me to become part of your team I would fill honored and privileged,
   Thank you for what you do and if you have any ideas, Please pass them my way.
        May you be Blessed 10 fold.
             Best Regards

I'm trying to sell some art to raise food funds! I'm homeless. I've lived in my RV/Studio for 10 years.
I have a Pop Art Formula of cat faced celebrities, done in marker on magazine and finished in found frames.
I think a good level of support would be a $10 donation per Artwork.

I've been shown in some very prestigious places despite my living situation (read, famous and valuable). I THANK YOU for your support.

I'm a college student paying off student
loans, trying to help with rent,bills,
car issues.I just
recently moved into a house with 3 other
people. I quit
my job,to return to school, moved and now
 I am unable to find work
with 7-11, ( this is where i worked before
and was told I can apply for re-hire, but
have yet to hear back from them, I have
turned in 4 applications to them this past
week!)(and other odd ball applications
to random store, resturants etc)
 And now its the end of the month, I
am broke, and about to give plasma for money
(even tho i know its for a good purpose)
I am looking for a loan, or ideas
I have no credit according to banks,
and i am unable to take a loan out =(

I am a Mother of 3. I work for Target at $8.00 an hour. I do have a degree but have not used it for the last 11 years so it's out dated and no one wants to train. There are no schools for this degree except in Houston or other states because it is costly to the school for the equipment. I am trying to keep our home so that my kids will have some stability in their lives. Our mortgage is about the same as rent. We lost our business so for the last few months it has been a real struggle to just survive.My husband moved to CA to supposedly find a better job...but he's finding he can't aford to live there. He's working for a non-profit agency that he started 30 years ago and is only paying $3000. a month. In CA it hardly pays for rent and food and that's about it. When he was here he couldn't find a job. It's been pretty rough. Right now we are on food stamps because I cannot aford food on the table. I'm not looking for handouts, but for ideas if anyone knows what Grants are available for working mothers for home improvements (our home is falling apart). Also, what school grants are available for schooling. I want to improve my computer skills in hopes of getting into something with better pay or starting my own business. As they say a job is only....JUST OVER BROKE with emphises on Broke.Thanks for reading this. Please help. I need all of the ideas soon.

Innovation - What is It?

Recently Charlie Rose had the guest, A. G. Lafley, CEO of Procter & Gamble (P&G). Following the show were several posts which called into question the lack of bio-degradable products, tax incentive for locating their new plant in Utah, and Mr. Rose dropping the ball by allowing these points to slide. While these are valid topics for discussion, the objective of the interview revolved around “marketing” and how “innovation” is used by P&G successfully. Charlie Rose clarified the purpose quickly with ‘So it is primarily about innovation’ and asked “What is Innovation?” If we can think along this premise as we watch, we may hear more about marketing innovation and gain valuable insight.

According to Wikipedia: “Innovation is typically understood as the successful introduction of something new and useful, for example introducing new methods, techniques, or practices or new or altered products and services.” Webster dictionary calls innovation “a new idea, method, or device.” A synonym may be novelty. Today the actual word ‘innovation’ is used to sell expensive cars, market high speed Internet, prompt consumers to use gadgets that are tricky to install, and so on. It signifies current development, but never goes out of style. P&G regards innovation as something else.

As business owners seeking deserved attention from would be buyers, we must find innovative ways to rise above the rest. To loosely quote Mr. Lafley, ‘Like it or not, this world is a smaller, flatter place, is less predictable, with bigger changes. Innovation has to play a role. We must become more agile, flexible, and more educated.’ Furthermore he adds, ‘In the end - you don’t have an innovation until she {or he} is willing to part with her {or his} hard earned cash for that new product or service.’ Please listen (click the top link in the post) with the purpose of clarifying innovation for yourself, and how it fits into marketing your own business.
