Why and How Did You Start Your Home Business?
I made the decision to start my business after experiencing 3-4 years of unreliable employment opportunities. I started it by revisiting a decade old dream to use technology from my home and provide office services. After working from home in 2008 doing fund raising for nonprofits, I realized that with the advances made in technology it was absolutely possible to realize my dreams. After extensive research and networking, I decided to launch in Summer 2009.
Advice
- Most important advise, talk it over with others who are in the business you want to get into before formalizing anything.
- Network within the industry
- Be ready to change your mindset in the way you do things as a business owner.
- Realize that you are no longer an employee and as such you must approach your client with the confidence of a minted business owner.
