Start working at home next year

At this time of year thoughts turn to the new year that’s coming. Will we continue doing what we’ve been doing? Will we do something new? Is now the time to make a change?

For many the dream of working at home is still that. A dream. They wonder if it will ever become possible? For some it will.

I’ve been very fortunate and have worked in my own home office for nearly 17 years.  It hasn’t been easy but it has definitely been worthwhile and rewarding.  To spend every day where my family comes and goes and being here for them has meant so much to me, and now as we all look back, I can see it’s meant a great deal to them too.  Not just our daughters but also my husband.

My mum was home when I was growing up and I am so glad I’ve been able to do that for our children too. But, of course, today’s economic environment often dictates that two incomes are needed in the family household, and not one.

If you have good computer skills and have worked in an office for a few years, then you would be eligible to become a Virtual Assistant, using those same skills in your own home office. That dream of working at home can come true for you.

Working for yourself is very different to working for someone else but you are not without help in the Virtual Assistant industry.  There are numerous networks and discussion forums available where your peers will help guide you and support you and direct you along this path of self-employment.  And there are some courses available too.

If you’d like to do a course and learn about running your own Virtual Assistant business, then I have just what you’re looking for – and at a special price for Christmas too.  Why not check it out?
