I Want To Work At Home; Where Do I Begin?

I want to work at home, where do I begin? Or how do I start? Where do I start from? These types of questions have been asked so many times, to so many gurus, in so many forums, e-mails and all sorts of seminars.

Because this question has been asked so many times, one would stop to wonder if it had been really answered, or whether the answer(s) was/were fulfilling and satisfactory to the people who asked such question(s).

In this article, I will try to answer this question, but what really troubles me is why does such a question come up with this intensity in the online business world, while we hardly hear this question in the offline market?

I am neither being sarcastic nor a scenic. I think if we were able to begin our quest for answering this question from this angle we might be able to make it clear for all interested in this marketplace to realize what they should be looking for.

Let's start at the top. A person starts the journey by wanting to start his/her own business. What are the alternatives?

1-Selling his/her own product(s)/service(s)
2-Selling other peoples' product(s)/service(s)
3-A combination of both.

Once this decision has been made we move to the next level.

1-Rent an office, a warehouse, a shop or any other facility that suits the business
2-Work at home

Because of the well known obstacles related to the first option, people have been opting for the second option. Thus "I want to work at home."

This rational, organized method of thinking was not available in the past; therefore, people were stuck at the first option and its obstacles and dreams died there and then. Today the home business concept is still growing and expected to keep growing for years to come.

The questions and decisions do not stop here. The assumption for the next level is that the person chooses to work at home. Therefore, the next level of questions is as follows:

1-I want to work at home offline
2-I want to work at home online
3-I want to work at home offline and online.

Offline business planning differs from online business planning in the details but not the structure. The planning differs depending on the decision made at the top with the type of business a person wants to run.

We hope that we were able to shed more light on this famous question, and that we have put things in perspective for the people who have made one of the most important business decisions in their lives, and had the courage to say "I want to work at home."
