Work At Home Experts

There comes a time in every business where you must hire your first employee.  While this can be an exciting time for some, for a person working from home this is exciting AND challenging.

I remember when I hired my first personal assistant.  I was working from home and had only hired occassional childcare help, and was unprepared for the challenges I would face sharing my home with a colleague.

Some tips from the trenches:

• Make living/work spaces well defined
• Pay on time, every time
• Have set hours
• Have your assistant answer your phone using appropriate business phone etiquette
• Observe more rigid personal space rules, being you are so very isolated
