Crissy Gipson Success Story
February 13, 2008 | Leave a Comment
Crissy started her telecommuting job search in 2003, because the job market in her field was scarce in the area that she lived in. She looked to the internet to find jobs that she could do to help bring in income while she stayed at home.
Due to her internet researching ability, she found loads of information online that helped point her in the right direction to locate a job in her field. She was able to find telecommuting jobs, that she had the right qualifications for, quite quickly. The internet provided her with the information needed to land those jobs.
Crissy relied pretty heavily on various website message boards and word of mouth to find her telecommuting jobs. She wasn’t afraid to ask many questions of the members of the message board communities that she visited. Crissy utilized these communities to research companies and figure out if some jobs were scams.
She states that the best message board communities to check out are “established message boards with members who have been working from home for a while.” Crissy says her reasoning for this is “There are a lot of other new people out there and if you fall into a message board that is full of new people, you can get misinformation.”

Kathleen K Success Story
February 7, 2008 | Leave a Comment
Kathleen started working from home, initially, from 2002-2004, due to some medical issues she was facing in her life at that time. She then decided to look for telecommuting jobs that she could do on a more permanent basis in 2005. She’s been working from home ever since.
She made her decision to find telecommuting work after she had her daughter. She started out working and putting her child in daycare, but she found that it was too hard to leave her there. She wanted to spend more time with her family and less time with work.
It took her about 2 years to find a legitimate company to work for from home. She says that luckily she never fell for any of the internet scams that are prevalent throughout the online world; but she admits that it’s mostly because she didn’t have the extra money to spare to pay for those types of jobs.
Kathleen utilized many work from home websites to gain enough knowledge and acquire leads to find the telecommuting jobs that she landed. She owes a lot to those informational telecommuting websites as she says she wouldn’t have found anything without them being available to her.
