Many moms (and dads!) get involved in a Network Marketing business so they can spend more time with their kids and then find that the business is taking away more time then it's giving back. Being WAHM's (Work At Home Moms) we sometimes get so focused on the goal of making it work we forget that the goal is to free up our time so we are free to do the fun things like get to the soccer games, school events and all the things busy working moms don't have time for.

It doesn't have to be that way.

If you find that your business is taking too much time away from your most important reason for doing the business then take some time to think about how you can get your kids involved in your business.

Getting them involved will do at least three things:

- Allow you to spend more time together, which is really the goal, right?

- Teach your child the value of being an entrepreneur.

- Boost self-confidence and teach the importance of working for things you really desire.

Getting the kids involved doesn't have to be difficult. Here are some ideas:

- If you do craft shows or fairs, let the kids come along. They will have tons of fun and often your kids will not be afraid to really let people know what everything is about and ask if they want to buy something!

- Let them do up your mailings. Putting on stamps and labels and folding papers into envelopes are easy things for kids to do.

- If you have great products then let your kids know about them, and how they work. My son loves having a look at what new candles we have and he also likes to hand out a free votive to people he knows to help promote the products.

The important thing to remember here is this is your business and your life. Network Marketing allows you incredible control over how you run your business and involving the kids is a fantastic way to work the business around you and your values!
