It sure sounds inviting the prospect of working from home.
But it depends on what type of home business.
Each choice has its own limitations and benefits.
You must do research before you make your choice.
Do you have an interest, and can you make money from it? This is a fundamental question when you are first starting out.
Starting your own work from home business can involve much time, money and knowledge.
How much do you have of each? The answer is vital to your time frame of building your business online.
If you knew at the start your business would be earning $50k after 12 months would you still start it? Each month the earning capacity can go up but it can also change for the worse if you do not monitor your progress.
You must work to keep your business going constantly as things change, rules change, your competitors change, trends change and you must learn to change or your business can start losing sales to your competitors.
If you have an interest research your competitors, what are they selling, for how much, what are they doing to keep their customers? You must know the answers to these questions before your website is started.
Do you think there is enough room for you, how much would like to earn per year and how long do you have in time and money? The answers to the above questions can only be answered by you, as we all have different needs, different resources.
Someone who has a current job can afford more time for the online business to become established, and this is the approach I recommend.
This produces less pressure on you and your family.
It is not unusual for someone completely new to take 12 to 24 months to get a good online business up and running.
It depends on the three resources you have, time, money and knowledge.
