Did you know that over 1,000,000 Australians work from home? According to a new article by BRW magazine (February 2010), there are approximately 700,000 home businesses in Australia. If you're taking up a home online business opportunity, you will realise that you're amongst a huge group of home entrepreneurs who have realised the advantages of working at home. The number of people working from home or operating a home business establishes one thing: people want more freedom, less commute, more autonomy, to get paid what they are worth, and more time with their family, and working from home can be the answer.
Small home business opportunities online usually offer a great income potential. The compelling truth about the actual profits created by home business owners is that there can be a huge gap between low- and high-income earners. As many don't make over 40,000 dollars per year, the number of business owners making a bigger income goes down as income increases. But, even more astonishing is the actual fact that about the same proportion of individuals make 40,000-60,000 and over 500,000 per year (that is, just over 10% each in the full spectrum). The other 80% makes less or somewhere in in between, and the average translates to around 220,000 per year.
Managing a business from home can present challenges, for instance isolation, difficulty to separate work and personal life, having too many decisions to make, and distractions. Interestingly though, more than 45% surveyed people working from home felt that they had a better work-life balance, as opposed to 5% who found it a challenge to separate their work and personal life. Also, most of the surveyed people didn't feel isolation was a problem they personally experienced, in particular those connected with large consumer bases. There are now endless opportunities to network with partners or team members and get in touch with more clients online, which makes isolation a personal choice rather than a disadvantage. When choosing an online home business opportunity, one should contemplate the income potential and personal income goal, building networks and working with partners, and distinguishing personal and professional responsibilities.
