A Day in the Life of a Home-based business

A day with Kim Baum - Part 2

Kim runs two businesses:  DeAngelo Ground Maintenance in Arvada and she is also a Melaleuca advocate from her home in Elizabeth.  You can see from A Day in the Life on a Ranch, Kim's a busy woman who is managing a ranch, two businesses, taking care of her young teen son, and caring for her 85 your old mother full time.  Kim attends meetings, goes to doctor's appointments, joins conference calls, manages the books for her husband's carpentry business, and takes care of her horses.  She has  a young protogee, Beth, who is learning roping from Kim, joins them for Sunday roping and dinner, and is also learning the Melaeuca business.  Kim couldn't be a better mentor and friend.

In this series, Kim is preparing for her "bucket challenge" where she offered a month's supply of Melaleuca cleaning supplies for free to anyone willing to trade in their toxic cleaners for the all natural cleaners from Melaleuca for a month.  Kim and Beth participated in an hour long team conference call where they talk about sales motivation and strategy, and then she went to the school to offer cleaning products to some of the teachers to use in their classrooms.  As a shameless plug for Kim, if you are interested in trying the bucket challenge, you can contact Kim at thebaum16@yahoo.com or 303-810-2287
