If The Scams Are Frustrating You, Why Not Create Your Own Work At Home Opportunity?

I hear from a lot of people worried about being scammed while looking for a work at home job

. It's tough to know which companies to trust, even when they aren't asking for money upfront.

If you can stand it, sometimes the best solution is to create your own opportunity. That's right, start a home business. You'll have ups and downs with a business, and have to deal with clients who are reluctant to pay you, but at least you're in charge.

It's not for everyone, of course. There's stress involved. It can take a long time to earn anything. But if it's taking ages to find a legitimate work at home job you really aren't losing out by starting a business. You might even earn more than you would have from a work at home job.

Here are some that you may want to consider:

Errand Running Service

If you don't mind being out and about a lot, running other people's errands can be a good business. You can focus on helping out the elderly, people whose jobs keep them too busy to run their own errands, that kind of thing.

Virtual Assistant

This is a popular choice if you've been looking at all the data entry and customer service positions, although it's not exactly the same thing. You may be doing some of those jobs as a virtual assistant, but if you have the skills you could also be working on a website, managing ads, writing and submitting articles, answering emails and so forth.

Writer

Another popular choice. There are plenty of freelance opportunities for writers. A lot of them don't pay a lot, but as you get experience you can do better. You might be writing website copy, articles for websites, articles for magazines and so forth. You might have a lot of flexibility with your hours or you might have strict deadlines, depending on the assignment. The ability to get your work in on time is important to all freelance positions.

Graphic Designer

Do you have a lot of artistic talent? Can you take a look at a magazine and critique its layout? What about packaging, signs and web pages? Online work is a growing area for graphic design with the need for interfaces that work on computers, cell phones and other devices. Many graphic designers do freelance work.

Other Home Businesses

There are tons of other home business ideas out there. The one thing I can promise you about them is that there are no guarantees. More home businesses will fail than succeed. That's just life.
