If you are anything like me, I am always looking for great ways to network with other Work At Home Moms! And I have to say I have joined a wonderful community I just had to SHOUT about! This site is called the Blue Fuzzy Slippers, now what is the Blue Fuzzy Slippers you might ask? Well it is a great place to open a storefront and to sell your wares from, but there is soo much more to this wonderful site then just selling your items!
Fuzzy Blue Slippers is part of the Divapreneur organization I mentioned on the air on Tuesday! They will be launching their first Magazine issue in January and yours truly is delighted to be an editor this great new Magazine for Wahm’s! Their other networking site Fuzzy Blue Slippers offers storefronts similia
r to Ebay for only $20 a year! And if you would like to take a test drive of a storefront to see if it something you would like they offer a two month FREE trial! Now it does not get much better than that! You can list as many products as you want and try it out for FREE!
FuzzB is a networking community, and online marketplace offering FREE and affordable advertising, marketing and networking! Some of the great options of your store fronts is that you have the options of using a BUY IT NOW service for FREE or their latest great thing is you can add SWAP link to your auctions meaning you are willing to swap products with other WAHM’s! Now Ebay doesnt even do this! And all this for $20 a year when Ebay charges you $15 per ebay store per month!
Some of the other great features is they have a coupon section where you can offer members of FuzzyB a special discount coupon especially to your site which in return means FREE advertising for you! They are also going to be adding diffrent groups you can join to network with and a forum to meet other WAHM’s! So if you are looking for an affordable to make some extra Christmas spending cash this year I highly suggest you look into to the FuzzyB site where you will meet some wonderful WAHM’s just like yourself!

Another great ecommerce site Bonanzle.com. I joined this new site in August and have learned so much about networking and promotion from the site management. And, its fun place to hang out as well as sell (and buy).
Ebay is making it harder and harder for sellers to cover their costs and leave enough for a little bit of profit. I’d love to see a good alternative, that has the same amount of traffic but is fairer for sellers as well as buyers. Here in Australia we have oztion.com.au which is a great start, but again, we need traffic and buyers.
