About My Work At Home
- I work at home because I do not like being tied down to a desk all day. I have one at home. I take photos and do inspection reports for banks. I am a Realtor. I've done this for years however, when the market turned, there was no money. I just added to my client base. If I do not sell anything, I still make money as some companies pay biwkly. When my children were at home I had the freedom to visit school functions during the day and not have to beg for a couple of hours off. I was also able to be around when they got home. It is great to be your own boss. Of course, it takes discipline and lots of focus. Its not for everyone no matter how great it sounds. Friends and family will call during work just to chat. All people will not respect your home work as a regular job.

Not working was not a Option
- I looked at everything, I spent a less than $500. Nothing was working I was just spending my wheels. I ordered a book and there was a brochure in the box after reading. I signed up for three affiltate sites Commission Junction, Linkshare and Pepperjam. I get lots of clicks over a thousand per month. I keep tweeking my advertising to produce money, on the blogs. My website does better with a newsletter. Its just a matter of time. I am looking for work, I have greatly improved my computer skills and web design in additional I have learned the art of patience. Jasaminetmi - Great information! Good luck to you and congratulations on making your own way to success. Randy D.

Not great fit for corporate america
- I started working from home after being laid off too many times by companies that closed or went bankrupt. Sort of out of desperation. I'd always wanted my own marketing/writing business but didn't think I could make it happen and make a living at it. It's taken alot of persistence and as LaShon said lots of networking and searching for projects but I'm happy to say I'm busy, busy, busy. Breakingnews: Very glad to hear it happened for you! You and I are pretty much in the same boat and followed the same path. Randy D.

Single Mom Needed Flexibility
- As a mother, I wanted a flexible schedule to be more available for my children. I went back to school to get more training and started my business a year later. I found consulting opportunities through referrals, classifieds and ads I posted on forums & Google. However, it is a numbers game. So be prepared to submit many proposals and inquiries only to receive a small percentages of responses. However, the joy comes from the work you do for the client.

Work at Home Came from Necessity for Me
- I've worked from home in the past as a telecommuter, but currently I'm working from home as a full-time freelancer. I was laid off, and after not being able to find even an in-office job after a year of frustrated searching, I decided to offer my services as a freelancer. In the 6 years since I made that decision, I've only had to work on a regular schedule at a client's office twice.
