How I Turned My Hobby Into a Successful Home Business

The Story Of How It All Started

What's your hobby? Your passion could lead to profit. I took my hobby of arts and crafts and combined it with my skill of desktop publishing and graphic arts. I used these hobbies to build myself a home business with multiple streams of income.

How one little company changed
my life forever

I was always someone searching for something better. I worked dead end job after dead end job. I even found jobs that I liked but anything becomes "work" if you have to do it day in and day out. You get burned out. At least I did.
I was searching for a way out. I wanted to live my life differently. To actually live and not grind away while life slipped through my fingers. My search began something like six or seven years ago but this story begins about one year ago.
I was living in a tiny apartment with my fiance. Both of us working full time jobs. I was working 12 hour shifts at a job with minimal pay. Just squeeking by on our paychecks. My online search for financial freedom had tapered off. At the time I was saving money to start my own business although still requiring me to work 12+ hour days and weekends.
Everything changed one fateful day when I took a visit to the doctors office due to the flu I had been experiencing for over a week. If you could have only seen my face when the doctor came in and told me I was going to have a baby! LOL! I swear I must have turned green! Once the shock wore off I was happy but the prospect of having another little person to care for kicked things into high gear for me.

I had to do something and fast. There's no way I was going to raise a baby in daycare while I worked 12 hour shifts. This changed everything!
So the search went on and with a vengeance. I started a few online ventures. Wasted some money on buying Internet stores already set up with products to sell, bells and whistles included. That went nowhere no matter how hard I worked. Tried the data entry scams, make money with surveys (HA!), I even found some legitimate companies but they all required that I continue to work a crazy amount of hours in order to make the kind of money I was looking for. I wasn't looking to get rich quick but to make a modest amount of money enough to live off of.

That's when I found SBI. Site Build It! And my life changed for good. When I first found SBI I was skeptical. I had been burned so many times in the previous months. I thought that what I read about SBI was all hype just like all the rest of the companies. The difference was that they were not actually promising anything even remotely like what the other companies were promising. They weren't promising to get rich quick but to slowly create streams of income over time that would continually make me money. In fact they up front admit that building a business with SBI would take work. They provide the tools. I do the rest. My wheels started to turn.

The more I read about SBI the more interested I became until I couldn't stop thinking about it and the potential of what I could do with SBI if what they were saying is true. So I took the plunge and invested the $300. After all there was a money back guarantee! There was nothing to lose. And let me tell you, This was at a time when $3 was a lot of money for my husband and I. But I realized that if I never ever took a risk I wasn't going to get anywhere in life. That was a very valuable lesson for me to learn! I spent way too much of my life waiting for things to just fall into my lap. And now I am an individual who make things happen!

So I signed up and started the action guide. You see, Site Build It provides you with a written and video action guide to follow. They also provide all of the tools needed to build a website and track it's activity. So I followed this guide to a T. I did everything it said without skipping a single task or written word. And to my pleasant surprise everything I had read about SBI was absolutely true. Every word of it! And everything they said would happen if I followed the Action Guide, did happen. I was blown away!

My inspiration to start this site all came from me planning my own wedding! I made the invitations myself, which just came as second nature to me. I kept getting comments from guests who I had sent them to. Some were impressed enough that they wanted to enlist my help for their own weddings or parties. Then someone made the suggestion "You should go into business with this."
And so you have it. Do-it-yourself-invitations.com was born. In the beginning I worked my tail off to get this site started and on its feet. But it isn't at all like work! I loved every minute of it. I could barely tear myself away from my computer. My husband would peek his head in to see if I ever planned on coming to bed! :)

By the time the baby was born I was well on my way with the site and it was already begging to generate a little bit of money. Of course with a new baby I barely had time to work on the site but yet it continued to make money even when I was taking care of the baby or sleeping. I now only work when I have time to and the site continues to generate income. Sometimes I work during the baby's nap. Maybe a little at night when my husband is home. The best part is that I have no work schedule! I work when I want! Sometimes I go a whole week without working on the site and it still makes money for me!
What's even better is that every month the traffic stats get even more impressive. As the traffic rises so does my income.

So if you are struggling to get by, or hate your job and want to earn a living doing what you love, or maybe you're just looking for a change in lifestyle why not try SBI? There's nothing to lose and your life to gain!
