Issue 2
=========================

Greetings from Anita & Kara
=========================
Wowee! Has it really been a month already?!? If it hadn?t been for our trusty little sidekick, Lauren, I might not have even realized it! I can say though, what a month it has been! Just to catch you up on a few things incase you hadn?t noticed ?

(For those of you in Direct Sales) Kara and I have released our first book! This has been a long and exciting ride and we were so excited to get it off the ground. I?m sure you?re already aware of The Direct Sales Success Kit, well, this is pretty much the same thing albeit the forms BUT in Print! This new option is for those of you who?d rather snuggle up on the couch instead of hovering over the computer to learn how to build up your business. For more details on this you can visit http://www.directsaleshelpers.com/book.html (And don?t forget to join the newsletter list ? we have tons of new updates coming really soon!)

We?ve come up with a method to help link up prospects and recruiters with various business opportunities called The Daily Home Business Report. With this report, prospects will be able to sign up to receive a daily report via their email. Prospects will receive one business profile each day until they?ve chosen the perfect business for them. Details on how to get your business profiled are located at http://www.mommyshelperonline.com/report.html

Be sure to keep an eye open on the "Announce Your Contest" forum. We'll be announcing a new contest very soon!

Okay, I won?t ramble on anymore ? I?ll let Lauren tell you about what?s been going on around the message boards.

Till next month....
Anita & Kara
