Tips from September 8, 2009
The Small Business tips today discuss working from home: Office Space
- Separate your workspace at
home from the rest of your house. Ideally, a designated home office
would be best; if not plausible, at least have a desk.
- Have a separate telephone line for work to keep you focused and
eliminate personal distractions. This is also required to deduct expenses.
- Invest
in a filing cabinet. It is an easy way to keep your papers organized
and out of the way of your home life, as well as keep others out.
- Treat
your home workspace as if you working in an office: keep away from the
television, distractions, & home luxuries to stay focused.
Daily Overview: Pick a workplace in your home and stick with it. Establish your area and take control.
