Work from home--Henkster |
Best home business to get into when you are
looking for an honest way to make a living either as a part-time supplement to
your income or a full-time income. Many
people believe that working from home means that you work from your pajamas and
you can work whenever you want to at your own hours. But working from home is
much more than that you must be your own boss and push yourself harder and most
times you put in more than 40 hours a week.
There are many ideas to choose from but the
first thing to consider is do you want a service business or to sell a product?
Computer Services
A computer technician, programmer, systems
engineer, web designer are always in high demand. You could have a profitable
business from home by becoming a subcontractor or a consultant. The hourly rate
for these services is very high for freelancers.
Bookkeeping
If you are doing your friends and families
taxes you should consider going into a home business. You will need software and a computer for
your business. Market your business, send
direct mail, design a website, and pass out fliers.
Writing
Freelance writing is a good home based
business. Can you write ads, brochures, and website content? Market your
services to corporations as a freelance copywriter by sending direct mail, or
cold calling. Freelance copywriters are
in demand especially in today’s economy with corporations downsizing.
Online Store
Sell products on eBay, Amazon, or
Craigslist. Or you can set up an online
store and sell products on your own website with a drop-shipping service. You can also sell used goods or buy goods
wholesale.
