Long gone are the days of the days of jobs for life and job satisfaction. I can’t think of one industry or profession that has not made people redundant or asked existing employees to do more for less.
These are sad facts and more and more people are being made redundant or don’t want to carry on in a job that is no longer enjoyable or rewarding.
How many mums and dads would like to work from home so they can spend more time with the family and less time commuting or working unpaid over time at the office just to make some one else more money.
The dilemma for all these people is what do I do especially if I am nearing middle age, a new mum, or if I have very few qualifications in society that seems obsessed with employing graduates even for a job that just requires at most some commonsense and no more.
Not many mere mortals can get by these days without a job, unless you have managed to find a rich parent, partner or have worked out a way to live off the welfare state which is now probably more broke than the people that it supports.
The only option for a vast majority of these people is to start their ! This gives you the freedom to do what you want when you want.
But hang on a second this is a very scary thought.
What do I do?
How do I start a business when I have never run one myself?
What about all the regulations, business plans, funding, logos, websites, brochures oh and the biggest question of them all what’s my unique selling point, service or product that will make me stand out from the crowd and will it make me money?
Well many people have thought they have the next big thing that will make them millionaires but the truth is very few actually succeed.
So the question still stands what do I do that will let me work from home when I want to and still spend time with my family and earn an income that will provide a comfortable living for me and my family?
