Why work for someone else and commute to an office daily when you can establish you very own business right in the comforts of your home? This would mean flexible hours for working, lesser expense on traveling to and from work and no boss to nag you everyday.
Imagine person “A” working as a sales employee of Company XYZ. Person “A” works up to the wee hours of the morning just so he can sell advertisement space worth at least a million for the smallest size. When the sale goes through, he gets $20 worth of commission. Person “A” here enriches Company XYZ through his efforts but he only gets his base pay plus the $20 commission---all that for the millions of pesos he brings in to Company XYZ’s coffers.
If Person “A” devises a way to establish a home based business similar to what he is doing now for Company XYZ, getting his old clients and building up their list, then perhaps he will have more to take home each month than if he remains working for Company XYZ.
If you are still unsure about your business prospects but are raring to start a home based business, you can do it on a part time basis.
