There was a period when working from home was considered a pipe dream, but there has been a recent increase in the number of jobs available from home.
Whether it’s operating remotely for a corporation or starting your own, work-from-home opportunities abound. Here are 50 possibilities, many of which will give you more than the average American salary.
Internet Marketer
Affiliate marketing, for those unfamiliar, is basically referral marketing in which you receive a fee. Assume you have a website and link to an Amazon book. When a visitor clicks on the affiliate connection and purchases the book, Amazon will provide you with a commission. Affiliate marketing is popular because it enables individuals to earn money passively with low startup costs.
Creator of animation
Are you a talented and imaginative person capable of creating animation and visual effects for television, feature films, video games, and other forms of media? Then you can work as a freelance animator from home. (I’ve seen animators earn between $25 and $106 per hour on platforms such as Upwork.)
Pastry chef/caterer/chef
If you have a natural ability for baking or cooking, consider turning your hobby into a side business. You may start a catering company or work as a personal chef from your own kitchen. If you’re a baker, you can sell your products to friends, neighbours, online, or at farmer’s markets in your area.
Blogger
Blogging is a low-cost and simple activity to begin. It might be as easy as you simply writing about your favourite music or food, and finally, your site will begin to generate revenue. Simply bear in mind that you must exercise patience when it comes to monetizing your blog. If this is something you’re interested in, take a look at this guide.
Accountant
Believe it or not, you do not have to be a certified public accountant to begin bookkeeping. Simply enrol in a bookkeeping course offered by a community college or even online (such as this course from The Accounting Coach). After completing a course, you will begin earning, with a median salary of $34,000. (I’ve personally spoken with several stay-at-home bookkeepers who earn more than $70,000.)
Childcare Provider
Whether it’s for a few hours or the whole day, operating a childcare company from your home can be profitable. Simply ensure that you receive the necessary licences and permits.
Coordinator of Clinical Research
Clinical study coordinators assist in the management of clinical trials. This work offers a potential salary of more than $48,000 and does not include a bachelor’s degree.
Consultation
Consider sharing your expertise and knowledge in a particular field with others. For instance, if you are an accountant or a lawyer, you can charge a fee to advise small businesses. Additionally, you may consult companies on how to implement a new software application or improve their environmental stewardship. (If you’re interested in getting started, my company offers a consulting guide.)
Customer Service Rep
Are you a natural communicator? Do you already have a landline and access to a secure internet connection? Then, as a customer service agent, you can receive between $8 and $15 per hour.
Data Entry
Data entry for companies is not the most exciting career. However, no prior experience is necessary, and you can begin at a rate of $10 per hour.
Composing Copy
You can write copy for businesses from your home and earn up to six figures in some cases. To find gigs, check out Fiverr or Upwork.
Owner of an e-commerce store
There are five distinct business models for e-commerce: dropshipping, wholesaling, manufacturing, white-labeling, and subscriptions. You can easily launch your own e-commerce store with the help of sites like Shopify, Magento, and WooCommerce.
