This “CLOSEUP” Interview with Dawn Harrington, a
Just The Fax Licensee from upstate New York, was conducted by Lynie Arden
and featured in her popular “The Work-at-Home Sourcebook” 7th Edition
“I must be an entrepreneur at heart because I’m always on
the lookout for an additional source of income,” says Dawn Harrington, of
upstate New York. “Just The Fax really fit the bill. It must be the best
sideline business there is.”
Dawn is one of millions of people who work as full-time
employees and run sideline businesses out of their homes. As an administrative
assistant for a university, she thought at first that she wanted to leave her
job, then realized all she really wanted was to supplement the family income.
Dawn’s first attempt to go into business failed before it
got started because she paid for an unscrupulous business opportunity that never
delivered what it promised. She was more careful, downright leery, when she
decided to try again.
“I figured I was already out $6,000 and I had a $3,000
computer just sitting there in my house. I was determined to find something that
would work.” Dawn found Just The Fax right here in The Work-at-Home
Sourcebook. This time she was more careful about checking out the company.
“After seeing the preliminary package, it just didn’t seem
like it could lose,” Dawn says. “Actually, it seemed like fun.”
The Just The Fax business concept is simple. You fax daily
lunch specials from local area restaurants to businesses where workers will
likely go out to lunch on weekdays. It works because it’s an inexpensive way for
the restaurants to advertise and because it targets the customers they’re after
– the people who want to go out to eat.
Best of all, it takes only an hour a day to operate the
business. Even in a small population area, the earnings are $1,200 a month with
virtually no overhead. Larger areas can bring in up to $7,200 a month with very
little extra time needed.
Dawn says if it can work where she lives, it can work
anywhere. “This is a small area with a sluggish economy. But it was so easy to
get started, it was surprising. I followed instructions and started sending
letters copied verbatim from the manual. That was in December. By February 3rd
I was up and running with enough restaurants to earn $1,000 a month.”
Could you ask for a better part-time business? “I don’t
thinks so,” says Dawn. “I can work full-time, and I don’t have to take any extra
time away from my kids. I do it after they’re in bed. And the fringe benefits
aren’t bad either. I love to eat, and I’ve picked up a lot of recipes and
cooking tips, too.”
