There are moms everywhere that wish they could stay home and make a living being with their young ones. But even if the perfect job was offered, staying home is a challenge; one that has to be strongly looked at before deciding to make the transition.

Will you be happy working from home?
You’re probably thinking that may be a stupid question considering this is something that you’ve dreamed of. However, it’s very valid. See, some people go crazy being cooped up in the house for long hours and need to be around other people, different environments, etc. If you consider yourself a people-person, then having a stay at home job will not make you happy. You’ll just long to be in a work home environment and end up calling it quits.

Can you afford to work home?
Your salary may dramatically decrease if you decide to accept a work home gig. It just depends on the position and the company. If this is the case, can you accept living on a lower salary? More importantly, can your lifestyle accept it? Just because you don’t have to worry about the cost of gas to commute to work, there are still fees associated with childcare, software, and possibility a home phone line if you don’t already acquire one.

Reputation
Finally, if you decide to go back to the workforce after working for virtual company, your references and/or work may not be taken seriously. The work home sector, unless your an employee with a well known establishment such as Apple or AT&T, is frowned upon by most employers considering the fact that many do not choose to employ in this fashion.

Working from home requires a lot of preparation and a plan that is well-thought. It is always possible to find or create the work home job of your dreams if you take it step by step without giving up.

Are You Working From Home?

Work From Home!! Be Your Own Boss!! Your Own Business!! We all have seen the ads and it sounds like the ideal life to most of us but the sad fact is 95% of all who try will fail! There are many factors involved but the two most important are a “good company” and “self control”. Out of all the programs on the internet there are probably no more than two dozen that are legit and have been around for 5 years or more. Most, but not all, bad programs or “scams” have a short life span because people catch on and the word spreads then the owners close down and start up a new one next week.

The best advice is find out all info you can on any program you are considering and try to choose an older one with a good track record! That said the second factor, to me, is the most important and the easiest one to control or “fix”. Your attitude and self control can cause you to fail before you even get started. If you have done your homework and picked out a good company to work with then your attitude is the most important factor to your success. If you have tried before and failed no matter how many times that is in the PAST and does not matter! Now, the Present, is all that matters and you have to believe that you will succeed.

A good company will offer all the training you can handle so you need to not only read it but understand it and follow it to the letter. Do not try to reinvent the wheel or change their instructions as that may be why you failed before. Be happy and positive about your new opportunity, learn all you can, ask questions if you get stumped and forget the Past! Please do not believe the ads that tell you that you can make a “gazillion” dollars a week and do no work or only 15 minutes a day! It ain’t gonna happen!!! A good rule of thumb is at least 2 hours a day when you first start a new business, more if you can spare it, so you can learn all the material and get all your advertising and programs set up. You have to have a quiet place to work so if you have kids try to get your work done during “nap” time or school hours so that your attention is on your work.

Do not let a lack of money stop you as there are many, many “free” advertising venues out there, “traffic exchanges, safelists, pay per click, classifieds” to name a few and you can “Google” all of them and link right to them. As you make money you should put some of it back into your business with paid advertising and continue to grow.

Remember that it’s your dream so don’t let anyone talk you out of it or put you down for it, just stay positive, work every day and have FUN with it! “Yesterday is history–Tomorrow is a mystery–Today is a gift–That’s why it’s called the present”!

Thank you for your time, I appreciate it.
