Skills Required For Successful Home Working

Business : Home Working

To be a good home worker - that is, one that gets business and does well from it, you need to have the following skills:

- Superb telephone manner: as a home worker a large percentage of business may be conducted through the telephone rather than face to face, hence an excellent phone manner is a must

- Be reliable: working at a distance where the employer cannot keep an eye on you this is essential

- Be able to motivate yourself and work alone: resisting temptation to dawdle or have the TV on in the background are essential to stop your productivity lowering

- Professional: the quality of your product is what you will live and die by, as a business. If your service and product is not professional and of good quality, you can wave goodbye

- Enterprising: for example always think of cheap ways to market your business and get the clients coming back

- Organised: this is essential, you will need your own records

- Determined: if things go slow for a while then you need the courage to battle through and come out full of clients and work on the other side.

Bottom line: successful home working isn't easy. Ensure that you go into it with eyes wide open and a realistic attitude as to how much business you will get vs. the amount of effort that you put in.
