Instructions

Things You'll Need:

• Computer in good working order.
• Printer.
• Copier.
• Fax.
• Telephone.
• Business cards.
• Pleasant personality.
• Computer and typing skills.

1. Build a network. Attend a couple Chamber of Commerce meetings in your community. Any business ran function will do. Talk with the business about their work. Do not worry about advertisement just yet, get to know the business community. Pass out business cards casually and while focusing on finding the need of the community. This can be done is large towns, but it may be easier done in smaller towns due to little local competition. Take business cards and make friendly business contacts. If your goal is mainly to work at home, be open minded to other possibilities. After finding what the real need of the business community is you may to focus on something else rather then data entry.

Your target market is probably small family ran business' that are in need of expanding. In small towns look out for small offices that are having trouble competing with new business due to technology.

Keep in contact with them but do not force your business on them. If you have experience that may help their business, a small amount of free advice may go along way.

3. Work from home data entry can be a good first relationship builder, excel in what work is given and they may ask about others areas you can help them with. Set reasonable prices with the business that hire you to do data entry. Remember they are a business, if your relationship with them does not benefit them, they will not do business with you again. If they are happy and given great service at reasonable rates they will not only hire you again but refer you to others.

on 8/18/2008 DON'T BOTHER! IF A COMPANY ASK FOR MONEY FOR YOU TO WORK FOR THEM, THAT SHOULD BE FLAG NUMBER ONE. END OF STORY. 97% ARE ALL SCAMS. HAVE YOU EVER GONE FOR AN INTERVIEW FOR A REGULAR JOB AND THEY ASK FOR MONEY AND SAY, START ON MONDAY, I THINK NOT. YOU SHOULD NOT HAVE TO PAY FOR A JOB TO WORK FOR THEM. BUYER BEWARE, AND BE CAREFUL BECAUSE ALOT OF THEM MAKE YOU SEND MONEY WITH WESTERN UNION TO PLACES LIKE INDIA. YOU WILL NEVER GET THAT MONEY BACK.
