5 Myths about Work at Home Career

noreply@blogger.com (Saki S) — Sat, 01 Nov 2008 19:10:00 +0000

You might have heard so many great benefits of work at home career. But do you really think that all of them are true? Here are 5 myths about work at home career.

1. I have the highest freedom: Wrong! You have lots of bindings. In fact, self discipline can make you sometimes totally restricted. You have to go through real strict schedule that is sometimes not so prevalent in a 9-to-5 job.

2. I have to only obey myself: Wrong! You have to obey your clients. Sometimes they are simply unbearable. Their requirement can sometimes drain all your energy. You have to OBEY them.

3. My schedule is flexible: Yes, it is. But it might be sometimes an 18 long hour job in a day, if you can't manage your schedule properly. Once I missed my cousin's wedding ceremony just because I had to meet my client's demand on 11th hour.

4. I earn as much as I want: Sometimes, it may be 'as less as…'. Yes, because it is not assured as an employee job. I believe, it does not need any more explanation.

5. I can keep a great balance in my career and personal life: Absolutely wrong. We all know the reason. Statistics say that telecommuters are more affected by the stress caused by the imbalance between personal life and professional life than a traditional worker.

So it is a keyword phrase. There are many keyword phrases here that give you the freedom and flexibility to find out lots of quality jobs.

Now the question is how many. The answer is countless. But how many of them are good. Well, the answer is obviously not any countless figures. But still there are apparently millions and millions of sites out there, so the definite figure is also very large.

Sorry forgot to add, I can't guarantee about the legitimacy of any job you found online through the search results.

The Strategic Management of Home Based Employees

noreply@blogger.com (Saki S) — Wed, 17 Sep 2008 06:22:00 +0000

Since the demand of home based workers is increasing, it is important to build up an appropriate strategy to manage them. To design a network of highly skilled and organized team members can be the most challenging factor for a team manager, especially when it comes about virtual home based employees.

At the first place, an efficient team manager must have an idea about different time zones, if he / she is about to set up the virtual team on a global basis. In addition, the team manager must possess the idea and knowledge about different updated technology and cross-cultural understanding.

The team leaders must possess the ability to collect contact information and have the skills to get to know each other smoothly. They must be able to make it clear the individual role to the other person concerned in relation to the goal and strategy to meet up the goal. They also set a rule of communication and make the best possible way to maintain the method of communication.

If you are about to work as a team manager, make it sure that you have broadened your communication skills to get in touch with the people sitting at the remote base. You must possess the skill to understand the people sitting at their own home couch. You must not show unnecessary suspicion. Rather you should have an intuitive skill to read the person in the other end.

Moreover, you must not count on the processes, rather put your focus on the performance measure. It is important that you maximize the communication with your remote team members and set the objectives on short term basis. Restating and reinforcing short term objective improves the degree of meeting the goal set. You must encourage your team members to use instant messaging and conference facility to improve virtual communication. Allow your team to meet you face-to-face at least once in a quarter. Scheduling a social event in every quarter can help to make the communication more effective.

Is Working from Home Free from Any Drawbacks?

noreply@blogger.com (Saki S) — Sun, 14 Sep 2008 15:13:00 +0000

The answer is 'Certainly not!'. Of course, working from home aids a great opportunity to make a worthy balance between personal life and professional life, but it has its own drawbacks. According to the research done by the Economist Intelligence Unit and IBM, working from home is not free from its own pitfalls. A survey done in Europe with 350 remote subjects revealed that the inadequate arrangement of management related support, required technological environment, appropriate measurement of performance level and proper skills and training, the subjects may end up with a strong feeling of isolation, under-appreciation, and mistrust, even though they work much harder than any 9-5 colleague working under the same environment and organization.

The greatest challenge faced by the working from home system is the coordination of work and the remote workers and meeting the required deadline. Over 40% of the subjects reported that they were feeling underprivileged, since they do not have the opportunity to take part in the informal 'water cooler' conversation, which is a significant part of the 9-5 system. Apart from this socialization option, they also reported that their feeling of deprivation includes not being able to be an active listener of the developmental issues of the concerned companies and other opportunities. Another important concern involves in relation to trustworthiness in their organization. This is especially common in the context of UK.

Apart from all these things, over 61% subjects reported that working from home does not secure the work –life balance at the level that they were actually seeking. Checking emails even in the evening or in the weekend with a fear of missing something important is mudding their work-life balance to a significant extent. Well, a considerable number of respondents reported that regardless of all these pitfalls, they do not really bother about their promotion, while working from their own home.

Occupational Health and Safety (OHAS) Issues of Home Based Workers

noreply@blogger.com (Saki S) — Wed, 10 Sep 2008 08:24:00 +0000

Working from home has become an increasingly popular option for both employers and employees nowadays. However, there are several issues that need to be considered before an individual changes his / her career option and implements home based career arrangements.

The home based career arrangements are nothing but the extension of the workplace, hence occupational health and safety (OHAS) issues should be taken under serious consideration. This implies that the employers must take the basic safety issues under effect, which are:

• Does the working space have sufficient light and ventilation?

• Does the working place have a calming environment?

It is important that your employer must verify whether your home based working arrangement passes the OHAS test successfully before you are allowed to work from your home. If not, your employer might be responsible for any injuries that will be occurred during your working hours.

Are You Getting Tired of Finding Online Job? I Am Not…

noreply@blogger.com (Saki S) — Sun, 07 Sep 2008 18:26:00 +0000

I have heard many people out there in this virtual world talking about 'no job' situation. But if I tell you that this is not true, you might show me a long list of scam jobs or no appropriate job, right? But still I would say so.

Honestly, I am not getting tired even today when I basically change my way of living. But it is very unfortunate to see that people get frustrated so easily. I am not blaming any one for getting tired, but in my experience I have seen that people are not enough motivated even if they have competency.

I hate people who always say that there is no job, even when there are so many options open. Most of the times I find many of them are not enough flexible and self-motivated to adopt themselves to the rules of the virtual world.

Well for the rest, there are few areas where they can try to apply. Here are few places for the writers where they can apply.

• Academia-Research
• Freelance Writing Gigs
• Online Writing Job
• Journalism Jobs
• Media Bistro
• Absolute Write
• Freelance Writing
• Elance (not limited to writer's job only)

Don’t Allow Your Work at Home Career to Spoil Your Personal Life

noreply@blogger.com (Saki S) — Thu, 04 Sep 2008 09:54:00 +0000

It is very tough to make a sweet and charming personal life and I believe that only a fortunate couple can enjoy the same. Unfortunately, there are many people out there who are able to experience a good online career of their own, but lose their successful personal life. It is important to make a balance between your career and personal life, especially when you are trying to make your career from your own home. Initially, it sounds to be very easy and hassle free, but it is actually not so.

Life is much complicated. So is true with balancing online career and personal life. Take an example. Your partner is doing a nine to five regular job. When he comes back form office, he may expect you to come to him to spend some time. But you are so much involved and absorbed in your from home job, that you don’t have time for him. Suddenly you may find that none of you need any one any longer. Yes this is not story. I am telling you the fact.

In this post, we will read few good tips about how to manage your personal life while making an online career of your own. This is some tips that I am going to share from my own personal lives. I am not claiming that these are the best tips and work for everyone, but these work for me. Check if they work for you.
Both my husband and I are doing online business. Currently we both are doing well. But we always keep a safe distance when it comes to business. Every time we have seen that we have a tendency to end up in to fighting when we deal with the same issue. May be we both are enough egoistic. May be we both have same intelligent level. I don’t know. But keeping the business separate resolves the issue. Presently, he is dealing with article dealing business and I am doing my setup for blog marketing.

We still enjoy and share many little emotions and simple feelings. We both keep everything simple. At least we try our best to keep everything simple. We try to stay transparent to each other, at least as much as possible.

Both of us love to go for dinner and we fix it all of a sudden. Although we (especially my husband) hardly ever become able to manage weekends every time, we try to watch movies in our laptop and to eat some junk (?!) foods. Take a walk in the evening, while holding each others hand. It will definitely work.

To be very honest, I believe that a relationship should be very transparent and both must have sincere feelings for each other. When you listen to your heart and become able to share it with your partner, a positive energy will be released and that positive force will definitely help you to enlighten your lives.

Are You Getting Enough Tired of the Traffic Jam? Then Why Don’t You Take 'Work from Home' Route, Huh?

noreply@blogger.com (Saki S) — Mon, 01 Sep 2008 06:16:00 +0000

When you are joining in a company, what are the things you seek for? First of all, it is probably job security followed by company ethics and discipline, right? But have you ever considered the situation from your own perspective? I mean to say, if all these factors matter to you, what about your productivity level? Are you really satisfied with your own productivity level? Have you ever thought that you can increase it quite significantly if you are not so much tired due to traffic jam?

A recent study says that we waste a considerable amount of the time in our lives just by traveling to and from office. Not just traveling, think about the pollutions, the junk foods you are eating everyday, the stress you are taking just because of office politics. Don’t you deserve something better in your life?

Here is a brief hate-love questionnaire for you. Let us see how many of these can draw your attention.

1. I hate 9 to 5 rat race.

2. I hate waking up early in the morning.

3. I hate my boring weekly schedule of going office and coming back to home, and then again going office and then again coming back to home, and the system continues.

4. I hate my supervisor monitoring me over my neck all the time.

5. I hate to stay away long hours from my family.

6. I hate to use my cars travelling during office hours, because of traffic jams and pollutions.

7. I love to watch butterflies flying around from flower to flower while working from my comfy couch.

8. I just love eating home made food during my work break, fresh and hot served.

9. I love playing with my kids during work breaks.

10. I love to excel.

11. I love doing something that I can do in my own schedule.

12. I love peace of mind and love to work without any disturbance. I also love to stay away from office politics.

If you agree to most of this love-hate questionnaire (80%), you should be serious about making a drastic shift from your 9 to 5 'boring' career to 'peaceful' work from home job option. Don’t spoil your life, don’t spoil your emotion. Live a healthy life and choose work from home as your career option.

Brief Notes on MLM Scams

noreply@blogger.com (Saki S) — Sat, 30 Aug 2008 05:21:00 +0000

Some people are truly scared even with the names of MLM business. They think that there are practically no MLM businesses out there that can bring success. And once they trapped in them, they will end up by doing nothing but losing money and time. But this is not true. In fact, there are many MLM companies out there which are legitimate and allow you to earn handsome money with their program.

MLM itself is a legitimate system; however, there are few dishonest people out there who exploit the system in an illegitimate way. If you are fortunate enough to join in a legitimate online business, then you can make REAL money for your living, but with hard work of course. With this outstanding system of MLM business, while one can earn money in a legitimate pattern, there are few people who are creating MLM scams and daubing them in the name of MLM business.

So, how do you spot MLM scams? What are the determinants to mark MLM scams? The most popular among all is pyramid scheme. In the pyramid scheme, you will gain high profit once you make any investment in the company or in the program. So do you need to sell out any products? The simplest answer to this question is 'NO'. This program is illegitimate and illegal. In this type of MLM scams, you are actually paying money even when you are not actually seeing for what products you are paying for.

Another common MLM scam is Ponzi scheme, in which people who join in the scheme receive a promise of huge returns if they make their investment with them. However, the investment is taken to pay off the down-line to make the program longer.

Although the schemes of these companies sound legitimate, they are not in real. In most of the cases, they take money from people and run away. So you must seek answers to few questions before you participate in any MLM company.

First of all, inquire if the company is more interested in bringing new members than selling products. It is not always a good idea if they are more interested in bringing new members to the system only, because bringing new members implies higher level of competition, especially if there are less numbers of products.

Secondly, a more common MLM scam is found with nutritional supplements. Be really careful about the quality of the products before you become the member of the company. In most of the cases, their advertisements are extremely exaggerated.

Take a thorough review about the MLM business you are planning to join in. Research and do more research before you make up your mind.

What Factors You Should Consider in an MLM Business?

noreply@blogger.com (Saki S) — Wed, 27 Aug 2008 05:27:00 +0000

If you are thinking about to start off a home business with multilevel marketing, you must seek for a reputable MLM company with proven background at the first place. So, before spending your money on any company, you should first analyze few factors, so that you can confidently jump into the business without any hesitation.

Reputation

Quite obviously, this should be the first thing that you must be aware of. So before joining in any MLM company, you must verify if the company has any established and high quality service or product line that has a genuine market demand. Moreover, you must research whether the company has a genuine strive to perk up the current line-up.

Business Strategy

The MLM business stands on the recruitment of new distributors. The process is a streamline process. You must verify that the company strongly discourages and refuses the idea of 'pyramiding'. In addition, you must make it sure that the company you would like to join have a proven track record and good working ethics.

Experience vs. Training

When you join in any reputable MLM company, be sure that you do not need any prior experience in this field. It is company's responsibility to provide one-to-one training. The MLM Company also conducts inspirational seminars in addition to all-inclusive guidance on training materials. The company works on the ethics of altruism, since one's success leads to another one's success.

Family Compliant Programs

The programs conducted by any reputable MLM company are absolutely family compliant, which means any member of the family can be a part of this program. It should not be something where crude conducts can be accepted.

Nominal Fees but Higher Incentives

The joining fee of any reputable MLM company should be very less. They do not claim any hidden costs after you join. The joining fee is all-inclusive, which means it covers all the necessary fees required for registration and training materials. On the other hand, any reputable MLM company offers high incentives along with outstanding bonus plan for those people who do extremely well.

Apart from all these above mentioned factors, a reputable MLM company always offers a strong support system. You will always become inspired by real life examples. The system enables a healthy competitive environment among all the MLM marketers participating in the system. In a reputable MLM system, you are free to choose between part time and full time options.

The Disadvantages of Buying Biz Op Leads in MLM Business

noreply@blogger.com (Saki S) — Tue, 26 Aug 2008 05:23:00 +0000

MLM business needs active communication with other people. Certainly, this can be a benefit if you can devise it wisely. But again at the same time, it can be a major drawback if you do not possess enough skills to do the same. Communication is the most crucial and challenging factor that you need to face to become successful in generating your MLM business leads.

In fact, most of the budding MLM marketers go to their friends and family members for the purpose of lead generation. Needless to say, you know better how much time and money consuming it is! So you might need to consider buying biz op leads to solve this issue. But remember that it can be only a short term solution to your problem. Since buying can apparently seem to be an easier choice, but it brings some inevitable drawbacks.

Highly Expensive

The first major concern is of course money. It can be highly expensive. There are people who spend nearly USD 5 or more just to buy one single lead. Now calculate it in terms of 300 or 400 leads per month. Not every one has enough money to spend over on lead generation.

Continuous Flow

When your lead generation stops, it means that you do not have potential customers to continue your market any longer. This means that your business stops growing. So you need to be continuous. You have to purchase the biz op leads on a regular basis to grow your business.

Not Enough Targeted

When you buy the biz op leads with a hope of targeted customers, you are most probably going to be disappointed soon. Because, it is not really targeted and it is really hard to find out the REALLY INTERESTED people against your money you have already spent on the buying.

Lead Share

Although sharing life with life partner can be the best romantic and practical idea in life, sharing leads is just terrible when you consider it from the prospect of your own business. The lead selling companies usually sell off the same leads to many marketers. The result is inevitable. When you call a person from the list, you may end up by doing nothing, since s/he has been already chased by some other marketers for the same purpose. So what are your chances? Very less, isn’t it?

Are You Interested in Home Business? Then MLM Can Be An Option…

noreply@blogger.com (Saki S) — Mon, 25 Aug 2008 09:54:00 +0000

So are you interested in home business? You can try doing multilevel marketing (MLM) business. In this post, you can discover how MLM works and what Federal Trade Commission (FTC) comments on MLM. In multilevel marketing business, a chain of independent distributors is formed. It is intended to deliver the services or products to the end buyer without spending any extra money on the middleman.

If you would like to enroll yourself to any MLM company, you must look for a low start up fee at the first place. Remember not to choose something very costly, however, without any verified reputation. When you pay for the start up, it is the duty of the MLM system that it provides you all the necessary training that you need to succeed as an MLM marketer.

A good and reputable MLM company takes the responsibility of most of the advertising costs and requirements. In addition, you will get a decent service or high quality products to sell off. In this system, you can recruit your own distributor and receive the commission based on total sales by the distributors you have already recruited.

Comment Made by Federal Trade Commission (FTC)

In the United States, FTC recommends the prospective MLM marketers to conduct sufficient research prior joining in any MLM company. FTC strongly discourages the idea of 'pyramiding'. This is absolutely illegal. In the 'pyramiding' system, the user only needs to pay for the distributor recruitment. But they do not receive commission based on total sales generation.

You can check the website of FTC to obtain complete overview and training in relation to MLM companies and how to join them. Moreover, it offers a list of 8 checkpoints that you should verify before you join in any particular MLM company.

Do You Really Love to be Online?

noreply@blogger.com (Saki S) — Fri, 22 Aug 2008 22:08:00 +0000

Today my question is whether you really love and enjoy your staying online. Ask your mind before you take any drastic step to change yourself from a 9 to 5 officer worker to a full-time online worker. I know many people (especially some of my close relatives and friends) who only care to pay their attention over my pay checks rather than the work load involved in it.

Even today, I can't claim myself an online entrepreneur. I am nothing but a small trader who trades articles. In more simplistic terms, I am having a good and genuine client base. They provide me their requirements for articles and I prepare them with the help of my efficient team of writers and deliver to them on time. I do it with the help of my website www.contentwritingsolutions.com. Till to this date (read 'moment' instead of 'date'), I am making my living this way.

Today, I am writing this post instead of my wife just because I want to share something with you about my love, my passion and my determination. Once again, let me tell you one thing very clearly and honestly, I am an article trader who loves to spend his time on this virtual space.

Now coming back to my heading, let me ask you again: have you ever heard to your mind? What did your mind say to you? Please take an honest personal inventory before you make yourself fool. Here are few basic questions for you, which will definitely help you in your personal evaluation. Sorry, I don’t want to hurt anyone's feelings. I just share what comes in my mind. Excuse me guys, if you find something wrong in my post. Enjoy.

Personal Inventory:

1. Are you just greedy and checks attracting you more than the workload?

2. Do really believe that online people earn more money than their actual work volume?

3. Do you really believe that you can't work alone and need someone's supervision for optimum performance?

4. Do you easily lose your patience?
