Most entrepreneurs start their first business from home. From my point of view, this step is necessary to learn how to initiate, develop and manage a business. Then we will see tips and information on home businesses.
Business at Home
I want to see in steps at home business since its inception, development and administration.
How to Start a Home Business
When you start a home business, here are my recommendations:
1. Work on what you know / you like
This is important not so much because you start a business, but by the administration. When you work on something that does not like or unknown, there are 2 results: frustration and discontent.
It’s about having your business as an opportunity for independence and enjoy your visit.
For example, if you like sewing, would have to find home business ideas for this shift, how to make wedding dresses, expensive clothing repair, sewing classes, etc..
2. Identify an opportunity
It is important to find business opportunities in what you like. An opportunity is defined as a market unattended, an unmet need, or a growing niche.
This is done through observation and analysis of data. For example, looking at a shopping mall, you can identify a business with high demand and copy it.
Or in reference to data analysis, review the news in search of business opportunities, is a story of trade opening with a free trade, a growing problem (for example, insecurity in Mexico is an opportunity for security business and surveillance), or search the ads section for opportunities to transfer or sale of furniture, equipment or raw material prices.
3. Plan before you act
Mistakes are very costly, not only for the money lost, also because of the time, effort and energy invested. Therefore it is always best to plan the business before tossing action. It requires months of planning. In the case of business at home are easier because we have solved the issue of the location and employees (usually family).
What needs to be analyzed in greater detail is the financial analysis. That is, determine sales, costs, and if profits are expected or not.
I recommend you check the course of CEUN 2.0, where I teach how to do that, no experience.
4. Determine how to sell
Another neglected aspect of starting a business (only when I can and this business we realize) is like going to sell the product or service. In the case of business at home, some strategies to sell are:
- Selling on the internet: you can promote your products or services, and even sell them with e-commerce platform. The easiest way is Mercadolibre (selling products), to the fullest as an e-commerce site (see the example of the spy camera site)
- Sell by appointment: Another way is to promote your product or service on the internet, yellow pages, directories, brochures, banners, or some form of creative promotion, and see clients directly with an appointment in person.
- Sell at home: the most common way is to adapt the house to sell their products. In this case, it is important to register as an individual in the Treasury to process the necessary permits from the municipality or city where you live. It’s a risk that at any time the authority may seek permission from the property.
- Sell in public: an adaptation to the above problem is to sell at a small stand on the streets. This will apply many food shops in Mexico.
- Selling a home: one last form of sales is selling home, for example through a dealer in the case of product sales, or home appointment in the case of services.
We continue this line of shelling in the Family Business Chair, we call the family show, the writing in which the family declares his intentions, beliefs, traditions and all that just setting up their DNA, their way of being that makes it unique. Today let’s talk a little about the beliefs.
We begin by defining what we mean by beliefs. Beliefs are concepts we accept as true or desirable. We usually are transmitted by other people and in the case of course families from generation to generation. Here come into play family traditions, but traditions discussed in another post.
Paraphrasing Wright, people experience certain features not only because they have experienced similar events but also because they conceptualize and interpret the implications of such events similarly. Thanks to the common life and meeting our respective beliefs influence each other. Develop identities as part of our families, professions and communities according to the belief systems that we share and not share with others. We live life with only a slight awareness, and sometimes without any awareness of our beliefs and their effect on our lives and those of others.
Obviously the last part of Wright’s phrase, a family business it can not be allowed. These shared beliefs will be decisive in establishing the Vision and Mission of the family business and the company that they own. So again I want to invite reflection on this subject that I find crucial.

Limited partnerships: These types of companies typically have two partners who are the groups that are the ones who have unlimited liability and limited partners are those who have a responsibility to the capital.
Limited Liability: These types of companies is that owners have only a limited responsibilities. These responsibilities only respond to the capital they bring to the company.
