Whilst there are always exceptions to the rule ... there are some work from home jobs that are genuinely that. A great opportunity for a person to be an employee out of there own home office, with full benefits included.
Wouldn't we all love that?
The truth is though, most work from home people have multiple employers/clients, effectively making them contractors with themselves as their main product. Too few actually see themselves as a 'real' business and as a result they lack the resources, knowledge or vision to take them from being a struggling want to be work from home mum/person to being successful outsourcing specialists.
Making the decision to work from home is easy, making the decision to be a work from home specialist is a much harder decision or mind shift to make.
If you plan to step up and become a true outsourcing specialist you need to make; plans for a specific work space, time for networking both online and offline as well as making education a priority to keep abreast of web 2.0 jobs, 'new age jobs'.
Do you want to earn some spare cash to buy a few extra goodies? Or do you want to replace your current or previous income with a sustainable work from home business.
Maybe you only want to be an employee in a company that let's you work from home, and if you are lucky enough to find one of these incredibly rare gems then you need to hang onto the role because there are many many people just waiting to replace you. But if you want more, you need to make the mind shift and plan to develop and nurture a work from home business.
