One of the first steps for someone looking towards a green living business from home, is to look at green living business opportunities. There are three major business opportunity programs available that are green living or natural living related. It should be said that business opportunities will have an initial setup charge that can run anywhere from $35.00 to $500 depending on if you want to keep stock of items to sell. Without being said here are some green living business opportunities.

Watkins Natural Products

Watkins natural products have been around since 1868. During the 1940s and 50s, business opportunities through Watkins as sales affiliates became increasingly popular. The business opportunity to sell and become a representative for J.R. Watkins Naturals is still available. The products available are natural personal care products, home care, natural gourmet products, natural remedies and special gift options. This company is legitimate and has been in the media recently as a premiere green living company. For over 143 years the company has offered natural and green products for the home. The business opportunity has a yearly fee for representatives. For further information on the Watkins natural products company please visit our green business section.
