UK Work From Home - Extra Income

Home Business Herbalife LaptopThere are numerous ways to work from home and to earn an extra income. We considered most options before starting our home based business with Herbalife.

The main choices are; As an employee; As self-employed and as a business owner.

Over the years it has become a lot easier to work from home. Now, it is inexpensive to set up a home office, or a home business. Indeed, most people already have a PC and broadband connection at home.

The first thing to consider is the reason why you are now looking. Is it purely just for an extra income, or is it about the desire to have a home business, to become an Entrepreneur, to have control of your time and environment, or to care for others at home. Maybe it is about not liking your job, your boss, or commuting. If you are clear on your "reason why" then it will be easier to find the motivation to become successful.

Self-Employed

Herbalife Work from Home BusinessA lot of people work on a self-employed basis in the UK, e.g. shop keepers, window cleaners, gardeners etc. You are basically selling your skill for an hourly rate, or a fixed fee on completion.

The big advantage is that it gives you control of your own time and the chance to work without a boss.

The big disadvantage is that your income is limited to the amount of hours that you can work. It means that if you are sick, or go on holiday then there is no income.

The advantage of working on your own is also the disadvantage that you have no support, or anyone to turn to for training or advice.

With Herbalife your income is based on your own customers plus your team members. To quote J. Paul Getty," I'd rather have 1% of the efforts of 100 people than 100% of my own efforts". You don't employ anyone, but get the rewards of the time leverage for an income independent of your time.

Employee

It is possible to earn an extra income or work from home as an employee. Some jobs lend themselves to this.
The advantage is that the income is fixed.

The big disadvantage is that it is generally low paid, plus how don't have any control of when or where you work.

Historically working as an employee was seen as a secure option. This is no longer true, with most people expecting to have at least twelve jobs in a lifetime.

With the Herbalife home business opportunity you are your own boss (you can't be made redundant!), you work the hours you want and where you want (work from home).

Business Owner

There are three ways to start your own business; Entrepreneur; Franchise and Network Marketing.

The biggest challenge with becoming an Entrepreneur is that you have to get funding and need to buy in expertise. We offer a "fast track" Entrepreneur route with our site: www.entrepreneur-home.co.uk.

The biggest problem with a franchise is the start up cost. There is of course no guarantee of success.

The basic characteristic of a network marketing company like Herbalife is the low starting cost, the high quality products, plus first class training and support.

About Us

Lynne and Martin CongreveWe are Lynne and Martin Congreve.

We started our Herbalife UK work from home based business in Woking, Surrey in 1999.

We were looking for a better lifestyle; Martin was fed up commuting from Woking to London and Lynne wanted to work from home for her daughters.

We both lost weight on the Herbalife products and have kept it off since. Lynne's Story

We started on a part-time basis, but have been doing this on full-time basis since 2000.
