Question by christineelise03: Running a Successful Home-Based Business?
Wanting advice about starting a possible online, home-based business. Currently a 3rd shift, part-time college student and wanting to explore this possiblity. Skills include excellent typing skills (80+wpm), desktop publishing skills (can easily create professional brochures, memos, pamplets, banners, etc), data entry, basic accounting, and web design (with Microsoft FrontPage). I’m sure this market is over-loaded with other business, but I would still like to see if I could be successful. I have most, if not all, of the required software/equipment such as Adobe Photoshop, Microsoft Package Suite, scanners, internet, digital camera, etc.. My question(s) include: How would I successfully run and advertise my business? How and what services should I list that I can perform? How would I know what to charge compared to other “online” businesses? What legalities/liabilities should I be aware of? I’m limiting my investment to $ 0-$ 100. Thanks.
I would want to do this business part-time, but at least 30-35 hours a week. I can devote about 2-3 hours per day (Monday – Thursday), but then work all day long on Friday, Saturday, and Sundays. I have always had a love of doing these types of jobs for friends, family, and organizations that I am affiliated with, but would like to be able to earn an income if I could be successful.
I am not wanting anyone to answer with their own advertisment of web sites to “make money” or any SPAM! I will report you if you answer in this manner. I want advice or suggestions, not spam. If I wanted SPAM I would do a search and find it myself.
