How To W.A.H. Succesfully

People who are tired of working 9-5, people who have families, etc have decided to work from home, but they either don't know how to start and/or how to keep working from home successfully. Working from home is complicated, so I put together this post to help you work from home successfully.



  • Create a Work Space/Office- Make sure you have a work space that is for you only. Keep distractions, loud noises, etc. outside of the work space (dogs, kids, adults). Having this space with help keep business and family running together.

  • Work regular hours-  Working regular helps keep your work at a minimum and keep your focus. This would help you form a schedule.
  • Take a Lunch break- Taking a lunch break will help you regain focus and tend to the things around the house, if you wish. 
  • Create a schedule- Creating a schedule will help keep your life in order with work, even though you work from home. Stick to the schedule even if you work when you want.
  • Remember to get out of the house- Remember to get out of the house. Just because you work from home doesn't mean that after work you should go downstairs and watch TV, it's like backwards from working in a public place. Instead of coming home from work, get outside from work!
  • Stay Professional- Just because you work from home doesn't mean you can lay around in your pj's all day because you have no dress code. Studies have proven that the better you dress, the better your attitude, which is extremely helpful with customer service jobs.
Creating an office
A great office has functionality and is comfortable.

-Invest in a good chair since you will be spending a lot of time it, it should support your back and be adjustable.

-Give yourself a view of outside, paint the room light, airy colors, and use a room with multiple windows. 

-Make sure you use a room with a landline spot incase that will be a requirement of your job, also, Make sure you have a surge protector (you don't realize there useful until you need it).

-Keep your technology up to date and your room clean and organized.

-Keep inspired- Put a shelf of photos, knick-knacks, etc. 

-Invest in a nice desk, preferably an adjustable one, but a sturdy one with draws is just as nice.

FAQs


I answered a few common questions for working at home. If you have any other questions or concerns, please feel free to shoot me an email! :)
  1. What is the difference between employee and independent contractor?            Employee you will get benefits, have taxes withheld and have a schedule. Independent Contractor you won't have benefits, you will have to with hold your own taxes, and you can usually work as little or much as you like.
  1. What are warning signs of scams?                                                                          There a lot of work at home scams. Watch out for things like: Paying to join, unrealistic earning; especially without LEGIT proof, The words "Free or discounted price today only", a lot of misspelled words, processing/stuffing emails/ envelopes is also a SCAM!
  1. Does a background fee mean the company is a scam?                                              No, absolutely not! The ones who are legit you usually will be offered the job before having to pay.
  1. Websites to search for work at home?                                                      Freelancer.com, oDesk.com, Indeed.com, Zip Recruiter.com, Upwork.com, Flexjobs.com and even Craigslist. Please beware even scams get into these sites also! 
  1. Is work at home for me?                                                                                            Well, this all depends on the person. Do you like to have more time with family? Choose your own hours? Have a disability? Be employed with benefits? AND are self-motivated, disciplined, and organized then this is for you!
  1. What does it take to be a website tester?                                                                     No experience is usually required, BUT you will need to download software onto the computer to record your screen.
  1. What does it take to be a writer?                                                                                 You may not have to have experience, BUT you will have to submit essay/articles that meets certain criteria, so don't be like me and get all the way through just to see the article is not something you can or want to do.
  1. What is my contact information?                                                                                      You can send questions to wahsommer@gmail.com I check my email everyday! :)
