Win
a Home Economist’s Services for a Day
[
Niagara Region, Ontario ] Handy Ande to the rescue. She'll
manage your messy finances, put your affairs in order,
organize your life or messy surroundings. Handy Ande
is Andrea Reynolds, a
Professional Home Economist who will come to your home
or office anywhere in the Washington DC area to provide
services for a day (Value: $450). Her contest requires a
quasi-essay: your wish list of services, why working for
you and why your location would be interesting to her.
By
September 30, 2008, or when she receives 100 valid entries
Reynolds will choose a winner, and the Second and Third
Prize Winners will win copies of her e-books valued at $10
to $25. She will drive to each winner’s location in
her Handy Ande Van.
Reynolds has a Bachelor of Science degree in Family and
Consumer Studies and Business from Kent State University.
With 30 years in private practice as a Marketing Consultant
for authors, experts, and speakers, she lists more than 50
services on her web site ranging from adult education to
web site design. Her work has been profiled in
Time,
USA Today,
Globe and Mail, and on
national TV and radio.
Reynolds is candid about her motives. “I’ve had 10 years of
constant rejection after a courageous act as a good
citizen. I want to find a new community where my work is
valued; earn a living and give more to others. And as
a Dave Ramsey fan, I've
eliminated a hefty mortgage so I can have a retirement
nest egg in 7-10 years. A day working for a nice family
or business owner will allow me to be productive, feel
valued and meet good people face-to-face.”
Reynolds was in
hiding for 7 years because she helped Toronto police put a
criminal in jail and they couldn't protect her from
retaliation. She shut down her B & B and gave away
everything. Bullied and harassed for 7 years by her new
neighbors, she couldn't earn an income because it wasn't
safe to appear in public. She returned to Canada to start
over only to find her building’s management forbid her from
owning a US web site where she earned income selling
e-books online and consulting by email and phone. (Other
residents own home-based businesses.)
Says Reynolds, “My philosophy is: When life
hands you lemons, make lemon meringue pie.
This contest is
my lemon meringue pie.”
She is also selling her e-books:
