Work From Home It’s A Cool Idea!

Do you wanna work from home? With an increasing number of people getting fed up of commuting to long distances to reach their workplace, home is becoming a favorite place to work from. But, before you do that, you should know the difference between at-home job and home-based business.

At-Home Job

This is just like working in a workplace; only the workplace is now at your home. Everything else remains the same. You work under your boss and there are deadlines to reach. But, here there arent any colleagues to watch your progress. Whether your job is book keeping, legal transcription, customer service, fund raising, web designing, programming, or any other, you have to follow the rules of the company you are working for.

When you work from home, the best thing that happens is that you can fix your own working hours. (Besides, you need not wear companys dress code!) Also, you can arrange your workstation the way you want and take as many coffee breaks as you like! Besides, you can take care of your family at the same time, as you are not away from home.

Perhaps thats why an increasing number of women prefer to work from home. They can spend quality time with their kids and earn money too.

Home - Based Business

This is a kind of business where the head office is situated in the owners home. This is the best way to step in the world of business when you do not have enough funds to make heavy investments in buying an office and equipment. Most of the big companies today had started with the concept of work from home. Ben & Jerrys and Microsoft are a couple of such examples.

One thing you need to consider is whether a particular work from home is legal. Most zoning laws dont allow noisy auto repair work, store-front on lawns, or illegal daycare from home. So, if you plan to start a business that involves heavy machinery use and other such paraphernalia, you cannot work from home.

Other kinds of businesses can work from home. The zoning law officials wont break into your homes asking you to shut down your online business. Once your business starts bringing profit, youll have to register it and also file business taxes. You would like to run your home-based business in a professional manner without legal issues, right?

Every time you take out your car from the garage to head for office, how you wish you could work from home. Smile! Your wish can be fulfilled thanks to the advent of internet. Gone are the days when you had to step out of home to earn bucks. Now, you can have bread and butter and work at the same time!
