The Pets Homes and Gardens Company believes most people can successfully run a home business, but also realises that for a non-business person this might sound like an impossible dream.
Running your own home business doesn’t have to be a problem, although there are some things that will make life easier. Here are three tips from The Pets Homes and Gardens Company:
Keep clear records. Running your own home business is a serious undertaking. Records must be kept and they have to be kept properly. That’s the bad news! The good news is that it doesn’t have to be complicated. There’s a lot of help available to explain what records must be kept and what needs to be done when. If you’re lucky enough to be part of The Pets Homes and Gardens Company then that’s all included in the unique franchise opportunity.
Make sure your business has its own space. That doesn’t have to mean a huge office or a garden building or even a complete room. It does mean a space dedicated to the business. It could be as simple as a box or a drawer, somewhere to keep all the business records together in one place. Being organised is a key business skill and even the most disorganised person will find it easier to be organised if everything is in one place.
Enjoy it. There will be times when running your own home business seems like the wrong decision. There will be times when it’s just hard work. There will be times when other people tell you you’re doing the wrong thing. Set all that aside – and enjoy your business. You’re in charge, you’re never alone (you have help and support from The Pets Homes and Gardens Company as well as customers and suppliers), you really can sit down and enjoy the sunshine for 10 minutes between appointments, you can arrange your day to suit yourself –and you can be a successful business owner too. Marvellous!
