I own my own e-com company which allows me to work at home when i feel like it. I also have an office/warehouse that I can work from when i need to get out of the house.
Personally I think i would go nuts if i stayed at home 24/7. I like the flexibility of being able to do both.
I also use send out cards to help build my business as well as help others get set up with the system.
Its truly amazing how a simple thank you card can positively impact your business

My personal recommendation is online business. With an online business, you get to reduce the amount of work since you can always put your business on auto-pilot. As an example, you can compose one email and send it to all your costumers/prospects. However, you have to keep in mind that most of the work involved in an online business is in the beginning since you need to set everything up. That includes starting a marketing campaign. After this stage, over 90% of your online business will be automated.

I make a couple thousand a month with adsense, but I'm getting into affiliate marketing now, too. Adsense kinda freaks me out, cause one day it'll be fine and the next day it'll be gone, and I never know if it will bounce back. :-P

I have been doing really well at Online Surveys and GPT Offers for the last year. Surveys are totally free to sign up with and make money with. The Big Corporations like GE ,IBM etc.. are always looking to gain more info. from potential customers about their preferences, buying habits etc..etc.. So they will pay Survey Sites to administer these Surveys to peeps like you and me and collect this vauable info. Pretty sweet gig, IMHO
Its gotten really big as of lately and it should be an industry thats around for awhile

Interesting,
I have started several traditional businesses and when internet went commercial, I sold all the businesses I could not move to the internet. Never looked back, been working from office at home for decades, and would never consider a traditional business again. I can accomplish everything I want to in business online.
I know run a dozen businesses online and work a fraction of the time I did when I had employees, overhead of building, accountant, and all the hassles and headaches of dealing with recession and surviving. Now I need not worry about any of these issues, and earn ten times more without the hassles and headaches.

It's great to see so many people successfully working from home, making a living, and enjoying what they do. Would anyone here be willing to fill in an online case study questionnaire for me to put on the 'case studies' section of my site? I'm happy to add your website or blog url alongside your completed questionnaire as a thank you for taking part. This section is of no monetary gain but was created to help anyone who wants to start working from home. PM me if you're interested. Any help would be greatly appreciated.
