Out of all the questions our community asks, the one we hear the most is, “How can I work at home?”
With families and households to care for, many of you crave the flexibility a work-at-home job can offer.
As someone who worked remotely for several years, I understand the allure: The freedom to create your own schedule and work whenever and wherever you want is hard to beat.
But getting started is a lot of work, and knowing how and where to begin can quickly get overwhelming.
What kind of business do you want to create? Do you want to be a freelance writer? A virtual assistant? A coach? Or do you want to sell a product?
And that’s just the beginning.
Once you know what kind of home-based business you want, you have to figure out how to launch it. That’s where a course or guide might be able to help.
