Great advice and resources, the best of which is, "Tap into a support netowork." I love working from home and being here when my kids get home and having control, however illusory, over my life. The biggest challenge I have had is from the "dream-stealers" who tell you "get a real job." The really strange thing here is that these dream-stealers are people who love me! Go Figure! Anyway, having that support of other courageous Mompreneurs is priceless. I would also like to add another resource - Work at Home Moms who are professionals doing the stuff that needs to be done but you either don`t want to do or aren`t good at. You know that marketing campaign has to get done but you want to go to your daughter`s soccer game and your son`s dance recital , consider a Virtual Assistant (see us at www.teamdoubleclick.com</A>) and together you and your VA(s) can make dreams come true! Gotta love that!SandraP2007-8-30 15:27:34

Open your eyes to things/services you and others want, but can`t seem to find either locally or convienently. Do a bit of market research to find out if enough business potential exists. When you find a "hole" or two... follow the well established path SuN and others have for building that business.

I have been working with a VA for almost a year-- and have only been in business for 18 months. For me it was more about hiring someone to do the kinds of work I knew I could learn, but preferred to spend the limited time I have on doing other work in my business. Training in how to design, configure and maintain a website or getting a shopping cart together are things a solopreneur can learn... but why when there are qualified, experienced VAs who can save time, effort, and money?
I`m a BIG fan of the VA industry. I think anyone who has a home business should hire a VA -- if you have a business and not a hobby. For me, it meant getting profitable much more quickly than I would if I had to take the time to get all that "stuff" down myself. Plus, I don`t like doing some of the things my VA enjoys; it`s a win-win for both of us.
I`m so grateful to my VA and I`m sure your clients feel the same about you!
Warmly,
Felicia
Thank you so much for your feedback. You make an excellent that a business can get profitable much faster with help that without. As an entrepreneur myself I know that spending my time on my "core competency" and letting someone who is competient in handling the other stuff that comes along with running a business is just plain smart. Like you said it`s a win-win.

My wife and I run an international Biz from home, it is web-based and we wear many hats. I`ve just joined this great Community and this is the first forum that I`m reading, since we work with mostly Moms/Grandmoms the Topic attracted me.
It seems the universs is telling us something. An Associate of ours just referred a book to us titled, "The 4 Hour Work Week" by Tim Ferris. A couple of other suggestions have come along ....and a key mentor recently mentioned he had hired a virtual assistant as well. Now, this article! We have a local assistant & webmaster...but now, yes I definitely see the value in aligning with a Virtual Assistant. Thanks for the added catalyst and your hard-won professional advice!
Create an amazing day....RWA : ))
