Need a home based business - only solid answers please!?

Question

I resigned from my job a couple of weeks ago. I worked from home, but the stress and travel was getting to be too much with a 16 yr old and a 2 yr old. I need to find something from home. While researching this I have run across so many scams its unbelievable. I want to do REAL WORK for REAL MONEY. I do not want my charge card being used for surveys, etc. Please let me know if you have legitimate answers.

Answer 1

As you wish to create an income from home, you obviously realise that a home based business is ideal. The biggest advantages are working hours that you can set to suit yourself, the opportunity to leverage time through the efforts of others, and significant tax advantages.



There are hundreds of possible businesses, but a business requires some capital to start up so I would recommend looking for one that requires less than $500 to start, but remember it is your business and it will only be successful if you are prepared to put some amount of continuous effort into it. It will take some time to build and get an income flowing, so I would study all opportunities very closely and see if your choice has any bonus schemes which can act as cash flow as the main income stream grows.



With most businesses it will take 2-4 weeks before the first income may be received, but that is normal, in fact most home based jobs will only pay monthly. But with a business the income should increase quickly as the weeks progress, in fact it is possible to be earning a significant extra income within 6 months and be financially free in 2-4 years.



Some 9 years ago I got involved with a company in the second largest industry in the world – Telecommunications. What impressed me with this company was the attitude of the owners, they were already in a position where they could have retired, but they decided that they had a company that could grow and help very many people throughout the world to realise their financial dreams.

This company now operates in 19 countries on 3 continents and expects to be opening up another 50 countries over the next few years. They have been featured in many publications like USA Today, Success from Home Magazine (twice), Fortune, and Inc 500 rated then the 22nd fastest growing company in the USA after their first 5 years, not only that but the 2nd most profitable.

Recently the multi-billionaire Donald Trump endorsed the opportunity, calling it probably the best available in the world today.



The services the company offers are local and long distance calling, subscription/line rental, Internet, Digital, Voip with video phones, Satellite TV and cell phone services with all the major cell phone providers. Now everybody knows plenty of other people who use these services in their homes every day, and this opportunity allows you to save people money on these services, but at the same time it allows you to earn a percentage of the monthly billing of all the people who are saving money on the services you recommended, you have created a residual based income, you get paid every month for as long as the customer continues to use the service. This can be a very profitable business as the industry turns over approximately one Trillion dollars annually.



As I am not sure which country you live in I have quoted the figures in US Dollars.

The only legitimate job you will find is either working for yourself or working for an employer who will let you work from home. Either way, you will have to assess your skills. There are companies that would probably let you sell from home using your phone/computer on commission only and sometimes you might find a sensitive employer who will let you do bookkeeping or run a virtual office. It won't be easy to find such an opportunity but you won't know unless you network with businesses. Keep that in mind. If you choose to work for yourself you have far more options. You can either sell products, provide a service or a combination of the two. Your 16 year old could probably help you if he/she is interested in working and you can work together. The answer is as easy (or as hard) as finding a need and filling it. The links below can help answer your questions about business startups. The $50 you put into a business license is tax deductible as are many of your business expenses. You won't make money working for someone else (especially in surveys) but you can make a lot working for yourself. Don't wait for your ship to come in ... swim out to meet it.

If you are an accomplished typist - word processor and have recently visited your local city college or university librarian, you can apply as a "certified" graduate typist, earning between $1.50 to $2.00 per page for a master or doctoral thesis. The librarian will provide you with a sample of the typing template (i.e., margin settings, font selection, page set up, etc.) in order to complete these projects using Microsoft Word. An average weekend income is about $300-$400 for two days work. Good luck!
