Hi
This is such a critical question and there is no one way to approach it. Firstly what are you good at? What skill sets do you possess?
There are so many online remote work from home jobs. Some you have to sign up on wensites sone you dont.
You may check sites such as Indeed, flex jobs. Timewise. Or you may search places like swagbucks or other survey apps. There are a vast majority. I find that if i put on remote work from anywhere i am able to do it.
Be careful of those illegal sites so read the reviews.
Also if you go on youtube ypu can find sites
All the best
One of the fastest ways to get money is self-employment, so you can work from home, but you must first learn any field of programming, for example [e-marketing - design - web programming - .... etc.] All of these fields provide you with a good job opportunity and you can To contact me if you are interested in designing or web programming, because I am specialized in that, and I wish you a good opportunity
Working from home can be a great way to earn money and support yourself and your family. Here are some steps to get started:
Identify your skills: Think about your strengths and talents. What are you good at? What skills do you have that could be useful in a remote work setting? Examples include writing, graphic design, social media management, customer service, and data entry.
Research remote job opportunities: There are many websites that list remote job opportunities, such as Remote.co, FlexJobs, and Upwork. Look for job listings that match your skills and interests.
Create a resume and cover letter: Create a professional resume and cover letter that highlights your skills and experience. Be sure to tailor your resume and cover letter to each job you apply for.
Network: Reach out to family, friends, and acquaintances who work remotely or who know someone who does. They may be able to provide tips and connections to help you find a remote job.
Apply for jobs: Apply to remote job opportunities that match your skills and interests. Make sure to follow the application instructions carefully and submit all required materials.
Prepare for interviews: If you are selected for an interview, prepare by researching the company and practicing common interview questions. Make sure to have a quiet, distraction-free environment for the interview.
Set up a workspace: Once you have a remote job, set up a dedicated workspace in your home where you can work comfortably and without distractions.
Remember, working from home requires discipline and self-motivation. Stay organized and focused, and communicate regularly with your employer to ensure success in your remote job.
I would love to help you find a solution but I have many more questions than answers. First ask yourself what is your passion? What do you love to do? What are you good at? What would you like to be good at?
I feel I have successfully navigated this virtual stay at home world but I had to follow my own passion and skill set.
I would be happy to hear your story and offer whatever advice I could to help you reach your goals.
Make it a great day!

Where can I find programmers willing to join a growing mobile start up for equity only?
You won't find anyone worth adding to your team willing to work for equity only, no matter how compelling your product and business is. The realities of the talent market for mobile developers anywhere is such that a developer would be foolish to work only for equity unless they are a cofounder and have double digit equity. Happy to talk about hiring and alternatives to full-time hires.TW

What does a business development role entail when it comes to hiring?
I think you should first really step back and ask if you need that role filled. Are your sales growing? Are they growing as quickly as you'd like? Do you think someone could push that needle? I've worked at companies with strong focus on sales and some where there were no sales people at all. It depends on your niche and who your customers are. Depending on your outreach methods, perhaps you need to hire someone with a strong sales background who's going to pick up the phone and start cold calls all day, or maybe you just need someone to handle your marketing better and help you out with some Adwords campaigns. Business Development is a big term, and it can cover a lot of things, most commonly sales... but salespeople aren't right for every business. So, look at your existing success. What sorts of things bring in the money now... and look to amplify those existing efforts before you go breaking new ground. You should be looking for someone who complements your existing success and can continue to tell that story, in your existing playing fields, and gradually moving into new areas. I know this was a vague answer, but I hope it helps.SL

As an accounting graduate with no money and no connections, how do I start my own consulting firm? And how do I get clIents?
STOP. DO NOT DO THIS.... I would never want help from someone like you. Don't get me wrong -- you aren't evil (that I know about) but you don't seem have any value that I could pay for. What would you be "consulting" a CEO like me about? How do you expect to make my business better when you don't have a clue about your own business? THAT'S THE TRUTH... Fuck the truth. If you want to get clients then you hustle -- every waking moment. You try an angle and fail and then try a different angle. You can't outsmart your way to bigger results. 2 plus 2 does not equal 4 -- it equals you going bankrupt. If you want to be successful then you need to exert massive amounts of effort to get off the ground. So get your ass out there and start asking everyone you meet: "What is that one big accounting question that's been bothering you for some time now? If I can't help you i'll buy you a cup of coffee" Then just go be a badass...DW

How do you get your first customers for a consulting business?
Back when I started LinkedIn wasn't as huge as it is now. I wish it was. I didn't have a large network and those networking sessions NEVER brought me any clients. I used to go to all sorts of them hoping to get clients. There were a couple of nibbles here and there, but never anything serious. The only thing that helped was reaching out DIRECTLY to people in my target market. That meant cold calls and cold emails. I'd sell myself while thinking about their needs. Once I got a few bites I'd build good rapport by keeping in touch, asking questions, repeating back what they were saying so that they knew I was on the same page and kept my promises. If I said I'd call them back next Tuesday at 2:15 I'd do so. Eventually I built trust with them without having a network, or an insane amount of experience. Oh and the most important thing about consulting is to LISTEN. When those first clients notice that you're truly listening and you're not selling the cookie cutter solutions everyone else is trying to sell them that's when you got them hooked. You start to understand their problems, fears, and see through their eyes and not just yours. A network will help, but in the beginning just good 'ol salesmanship will get the ball rolling.JC

What would be a good answer for describing the size of your company to a potential prospect who might consider you too small to service their account?
What an awesome question! Businesses are running into this issue more frequently that ever, good news is, it can be done. Having worked on projects with oDesk, Fox Television and Wikipedia and having a very very small staff, it's certainly possible. Here's how I say it in our pitches to larger organizations: "Tractive West provides tailored video production services to organizations of all sizes. We have developed a distributed workflow using the latest digital tools. We leverage our small creative and management team with a world wide network of creative professionals, that means we can rapidly scale to meet the demands of any project while keeping our infrastructure and overhead lightweight and sustainable." Cheers and best of luck.SM
