Have the freedom you want with a home business

Written by Laura on Nov 2nd, 2008 | Filed under: General


Friends of mine – Matt and Stacy – run their own home based business from within their house. I was dubious of how this worked before I went to visit them at their head office: their living room.

Inside a wonderful mansion of a house Mark and Stacy live a life of understated luxury. They spend a lot of time with their children and with each other. This is a family that really does enjoy its own company, and one that manages to squeeze a lot out of the leisure time that they get.

So we get to the point of this article: the fact that Matt and Stacy are able to live this picture book life is their home based business. They don’t seem to spend much time working, but they do work hard, they assure me. And they’ve managed to build up a staff of six part time workers.

The concept of hiring staff when you are engaged in a home based business may seem like an odd one. But the move was natural for Mark and Stacy: they get the same benefits as their employers, get the same flexibility to work when it suits them rather than to some arbitrary ‘office’ hours. Making a home based business that works as well as a ‘normal’ business is not necessarily easy, but Mark and Stacy have managed just that.
