Don't Like Your Job?

Don't like the company you work for, but like your job? Strike out on
your own and start a business at home doing what you love.

Do you hate your job? Do you have what it takes to start your own busi-
ness? Millions of people hate their jobs but don’t have the guts to quit
and start their own businesses. Self employment ideas are all around you
and you probably don’t even realize it. There are hundreds of ideas that
you can use to start your own business and be successful but if you don’t
know what to look for, you can’t make that decision to be your own boss.

Let’s start with the most obvious self employment ideas. What job do you
do right now? Would you be happy doing that job if you did it for yourself?
Do you hate the job or just the company that you work for? If you hate
the company you work for but love the job itself, maybe you can go off on
your own and start a business doing that job. Whether it’s customer serv-
ice or an adminstrative position, you can find ways to do that job yourself.
Ideas like this are endless. The technical field is another field that can har-
vest many types of businesses from the one position you work now. Many
businesses hire assistants that work from home, or virtual customer serv-
ice reps, book keepers, and others. Usually you can make a more money
doing these jobs for yourself, and working from home than you can work-
ing in an office for someone else or a large company.

There are still hundreds of other self employment ideas you can try if
you hate the job itself and you want to find something entirely different.
Open a business online selling stuff if you have retail experience. Or, if
you don’t have something in mind that you want to do, invest in an multi
level marketing business system with an established business and start
selling. Millions of people every year get rich from selling online, because
internet retail is a booming industry. But if that still doesn’t interest you,
don’t despair. If you are creative and focused, you will think of a great
idea. Chances are good that you will find a way that you can make money
doing what you love. Write tutorials and put lessons on video and post
them online, if you like playing musical instruments. Sell ebooks about
things that you like to write about. There are tutorials you can find on-
line that teach you how to write ebooks. Blogging can also be very luc-
rative if you get into the right niche market. Blog about customer serv-
ice, personal finances, business finances, gardening, or any other subject
you feel you are an expert at. Some people have worked themselves up
to making six figures a year spending their days blogging online, after
building an online presence and a good following.

Sit down and make a list of the subjects you are good at, interested in, or
want to be interested in. This will then become your list for your poten-
tial online business. Then narrow that list down to half. Go to your family
and friends and ask their opinion about these potential online businesses.
Sometimes an objective view can help you make your final decision on
which business to promote.
