Filed Under Newsletter, Personal |
Hi there. Welcome to my newsletter / blog.
My name is Charles Burleigh and I live in Sparta, Missouri with my lovely wife Jacki, my 5 girls and Jacki’s Mother! Yes, I have FIVE daughters, just like Tevye in the musical “Fiddler on the Roof”!
This is the beginning of what I hope will become a large community of like-minded people on the web. Thank you for being here and reading my post. Please subscribe to the RSS feed, bookmark the site and come back often.
What is StayHomeDads?
The purpose of this StayHomeDads.com is to assemble a group of like-minded individuals together to share ideas, tips, tricks and secrets about ways to become a Stay at Home Dad (SAHD). (Ladies this applies to you, or your husbands as well.)
We are dedicated to helping YOU find the SUCCESS that you are looking for.
Once you read my story, you’ll see that I’m sincere in my desire to help other people achieve financial success in life.
So, I’m building this community to help us achieve the success we are all looking for.
Who is StayHomeDad?
If you have seen my website, www.StayHomeDads.com you have seen a picture of my beautiful family. You see that I have 5 daughters and a lovely wife. My family is everything to me!
However, my career in Computer Consulting has made it necessary for me to travel almost every week for almost 8 years. It has provided a good six-figure income for my family, but the toll on our family has been heavy.
Every Sunday night I kiss my girls goodnight, and leave for the airport before they wake up on Monday morning. I don’t get to see them again till Thursday (if I have a compassionate client) or Friday night.
That’s a very exhausting and trying lifestyle!
I don’t want to live that life any longer!
Becoming a StayHomeDad
I have discovered a way to become a StayHomeDad! Robert Kiyosaki said that “The rich build Networks.” He says “There are many network marketing companies that do have excellent education and training plans–in my opinion, some of the best real-life business training I have seen anywhere.”
Network Marketing or MLM is actually a personal development program disguised as a way to move products. Listen to any Network Marketing training CD or read any publication on Network Marketing and you’ll see that it doesn’t take long before they
are talking about personal development.
And personal development talk is addictive! So, every time I’ve thown up my hands in frustration, and said, “I’ll NEVER join another opportunity again!” I come back.
I admit it, I’m addicted to the idea of achieving success. I want to be home so I can kiss my girls goodnight every night. I want to be able to go to music programs, school plays, and dance recitals.
However, I can’t do it on my own. The road to success is through service to other people. I know that if I help others achieve success, my success will be assured. I truly believe “You can have everything in life that you want if you will just help enough other people get what they want.” — Zig Ziglar.
My Commitment
Through this newsletter / blog I want to help YOU achieve the success you’re searching for. We’ll share ideas, tools, opportunities, tips and tricks with you that will help you in your quest for success.
We’ll talk about list building techniques, marketing strategies, traffic generation and more.
Maybe you’re already successful? If that’s the case, we welcome your feedback, ideas and tips and tricks. With your permission, we’ll be happy to share them with the rest of the group.
I’m committed to helping others succeed. I hope you’ll enjoy your stay in our community. Together we can Master Mind our way
to success.

Hey Charles,
Joe Sansoucie here a fellow Missourian.
Ok well I left Missouri when I was 5 but hey I felt the sting of the cold every winter. 
Now living is sunny California I must admit I do not miss the snow, the bugs, the humidity. lol 
But I miss the coutry side as it is beautiful. You do get to see all four seasons which depending on where you live in California you only see two. Winter and summer. lol
Congradulations on your word press blog, one tip, be sure you have content publicly available and not just for members who register. Works better for you with the organic traffic. Use the public side to promote and entice folks to register.
As the owner and operator of TheMoneyWave.com I have found there is no secrets to staying at home and earning an income on the internet. It takes money to make money and don’t let them tell you otherwise. And a lot of very hard work and long hours.
Actually the free mentality is killing every affiliate marketers chances of making any money at all. How many have signed up for free affiliate programs that promised to pay commissions but despite how much traffic you send your affiliate link you make absolutlely no income from it?
The one fact that every offline business knows and understands is it takes money to make money. Online is the only place where people seem to think that milk and gasoline are free. Online everyone buys into the hype that they can join for free and make big money overnight. If that were really true everyone you know online would be rich already and would not need yet another affiliate program to join.
In order to make the money you must spend the money. You don’t need matrix’s, foced downline, spillover, powerlines or anything else to make money in good paying affiliate programs. You simple need to spend the money for it and then push as much traffic to it as you can each and every day non stop and get at least the minimum amount of referral sales to create your monthly income. Thats it in a nut shell.
Everything else is just a waste of your time and money if you are indeed spending any.
There are not many affiliate programs designed for your success as an affiliate marketer. Very few indeed however I think you know of at least one that is geared up for your success.
Keep up the good work but remember you need to post at least three or four paragraphs a day to do any good in Google and other SE’s. The more consistant you are the better off you are.
Thats all the “secrects?” I have for you today.
Cheers!

Hi Shamsul,
Thank you so much for your comment on my blog.
We “Stay Home Dad” wannabe’s need to stick together.
I checked out your site, and it looks like a work in progress. If you’re looking to get some free traffic, I recommend setting up those same pages in a WordPress blog. Really, it works, and slowly but surely you’ll start developing an audience of readers.
If you need any help setting up a blog, I’ll be happy to help you.
As always, I’m here to lend assistance where I can.
Best Wishes,
Charles
P.S. We love the Cash Flow games and play every chance we get. They are truly awesome!
Dear Charles,
I have been receiving your emails for quite some time, and find them very interesting and helpful for my fledgling online business.
I have started a PLR article marketing site (http://www.qualityplrarticles.com)and I am hoping it will allow me to stay full time at home to take care of my husband, who is suffering from a brain tumor, and a little baby girl we are in the process of adopting.
Please continue giving us helpful tips to enhance our online businesses so that we can all stay home with our kids and loved ones.
Regards,
Kavita Masthoff
