Step 1
Look online for a product to sell. One of the biggest opportunities in home-based business is to start selling an item from home. There are hundreds of companies that offer items at a discount that are then sold to others. Often the sales are done by giving home sales parties or selling through a catalog. Other items can be sold online. To find one, start by deciding what type of product you want to sell and search online for companies that offer them to home businesses. Just a few of these include Pampered Chef, Avon, Tupperware and BookWise.

Step 2
Do some research into home-based service businesses. If you think about the different service businesses available in your area, there are probably a number of them that can be run from home. A plumber, house cleaner or furniture assembler does not need a store front. Businesses like these are ones that people primarily know from their advertising and will contact over the phone. That means that they can be run from home just as easily as they could be from anywhere else. Think about what kinds of services you are qualified to offer and what kinds you might be willing to learn.

Step 3
Find out more about franchises of home businesses. There are some home businesses that are franchises of well-known businesses that are already successful. Buying a franchise of one means that you have the right to use the name and the business plan for the business and to take advantage of any advertising it does to promote its franchisees. Searching online and through the various websites devoted to franchises, like franschisegator, will show you what is available.

Step 4
Go to an online forum dedicated to home businesses and find out what types of home businesses they have. You may get a few ideas about what has been successful and what has not.

on 11/19/2008 You have to be motivated to do well with a home based business, dont let anyone tell you otherwise. If you dont market and sell your products or services you will not succeed. For those of you who are like me and want to be home with your kids or just dont want someone else telling you when you can take a vacation or eat your lunch then that might be your motivation to success. I am an independent consultant for Arbonne, a leader in all natural, botanical based products I am also a stay at home mother of 2. This is a great company to be involved with. This company has allowed me to make good money, meet great people and best of all be home with my babies.
