Want to work from home

[cre]

I would love to start a family soon but also want to have some kind of business I can do from home - I am good with people and words, am quite creative, have some knowledge on business management, but can't decide. Nothing mundane...I'm not afraid to take on something fairly challenging. Any suggestions? Thanks!

ignore all the work from home schemes, there are very very very few that are real or worth the time, but try contacting places such as double glazing or other places where they may be looking for phone sales people.

Other things u could do is CV writing for any student or uni people that need them, look towards offices offering yourself as a freelance admin assistant willing to work from home etc, end of the day there arent a lot of things u can do but a trawl through a yellow pages looking for any companies that might employ people working from home in some way would be worth a try. After all, the companies that are legit are less likely to advertise themselves as wanting workers.

Another thing u could do that requires creativity and dedication and can earn u a part time wage is competitions and i personally have won 80+ prizes in the last 12 months ranging from �2 to �1200 in value, all together my prizes for 12 months are worth �6500 and i often sell a lot of them for cash and this brings in a nice extra income. the prizes u are most likely to win if u are creative are tiebreaker competitions u can find in supermarkets on promotion stands. these often offer cars and holidays and have a very low entry as u have to be creatice at writing a slogan, i have 2 friends who one won a holiday to Oz and the other won a brand new mini cooper (her second car she has won in 3 years)

I know it's not really from home but I'm a face-painter which is great if you're good with people and creative. Mainly only working weekends and you can earn good money with practice at large events, shopping complexes private functions etc.
