Everyone wants that the freedom to get the work/life balance right. With the help of AppsGeyser, your dreams may come true. Hundreds of app makers have used AppsGeyser’s ready-made app templates to help get their home-based app business off the ground. Today we are going to look at some tips that will help you start your home-based app business.
1: Business type – What type of business are you looking at setting up in terms of legalities? You need to understand what it means to be self-employed and what type of business structures are out there in order to get your taxes set up correctly.
2: Insurance – Do you want to take out additional insurances to cover you for your computer and other business related items? If you have a company registered at your home address your regular home insurance may become invalid
3: Paperwork – Are you prepared to track all your revenue and expenditure in a professional manner? It is wise to have all this organized before you launch your business because you will be too busy with the teething problems of a new business to worry about admin.
4: PO BOX – Can you set up an address for your business that will not bring all your customers to your front door? This will set a boundary between you and your clients and give you some personal privacy
5: Home-Office – Make sure you have set up some office space for your work. Sitting on the sofa with your laptop will not get you into the right mind-set to work professionally.
6: Set limits – Working from home is not easy. Just because you are home it does not mean you are readily available for childcare, taking the dog for a mid-afternoon walk and having friends just pop in. Set up your working hours and stick with them or else you will find you are working here and there constantly.
7: Self-discipline – Set yourself rules and be committed to them. Distractions are the major hurdle when it comes to having a successful home-run app business.
