If you’ve been thinking of starting a home business but haven’t started one, what is stopping you? Is it because you don’t know what business you want to start? Or may be you don’t know where to start?

Not knowing what home business to start and not knowing where to start are the most common reasons that keep people from starting.

Coming up with an idea for a home business is the first step and the most difficult step for many people.

How do you know what home business is right for you?

Asking yourself these questions will help you determine what business is right for you:

o What skills, education and experience do you have?

o What do you enjoy doing?

o What are you knowledgeable about?

o What are you good at?

Before deciding on a business, analyze your skills, experience, interests, and personality. Also write down your education, training, work experience, volunteer experience, interests and hobbies. Make a list of what you know.

It’s a good idea to choose a business that is built around your skills and experience. It’s easier to run a business in a field or industry or around the type of work you have experience in.

Next, identify what you like. Your likes and dislikes are important. What do you enjoy doing? Write down what you like to do and what you don’t like. If you like your work, it won’t feel like work, you won’t mind working long hours, and you’ll have more enthusiasm to build a successful business.

Now you want to match your skills with a marketable business. Make a list of home business ideas that are suitable for your skills and interests. Did you come up with any ideas for businesses that you like and that you have the right kind of experience for?

Let me give you some examples.

If you have writing skills, you will find many opportunities to work from home. Possible businesses you could consider include article writing, writing for blogs, writing web copy, writing email promotions, copywriting, editing, ghostwriting and internet marketing.

If you have computer, typing, sales, marketing, and customer service skills, possible businesses you can run around those skills include secretarial services, virtual assisting, medical transcription, web design and graphic design.

You can utilize your computer and marketing skills to start an online business, provide internet marketing services to clients, market affiliate programs, sell products online or sell on eBay.

You can easily turn your typing skills into a home business. For example, you can start a secretarial business from home and provide word processing services to small businesses. If you are proficient with the Internet, you can become a virtual assistant. Or you can provide medical transcription services if you’re willing to learn medical terminology.

If you research those home businesses, you’ll find that any of the above provides legitimate typing work from home.

Can you turn your skills and experience into a home business? Analyze your skills, identify a home business that’s right for you, and then start your own home business.
