Today, unique ideas sells the most and there are even more grabbers for it before you actually launch your product, within just few months of any product introduction in the markets, we start seeing similar types of products, even with better quality and rate. As far as my research goes, I have had couple of opportunities to interact with homepreneurs to understand their style of working and how they make profits and how they manage their business, the answer I got was very simple, they are determined and handle it like any other business given the amount of time and resources they get.

Ten years back, we hardly had any imaginations that we can do bigger businesses sitting at home, with increasing awareness of technology and other supplementary resources we can do everything possible under the sun. More likely, the virtual world of Internet has made this possible as people can get interacting for business in a matter of just few seconds from different continents. Home businesses are mostly specialized businesses dealing in unique items, in fact, that is the main reason why they are being able to sell their unique proposition. According to the research survey by Small Business Success Index, following are the learning facts of home-based businesses:

  • Given the amount of small businesses being set up in the recent while, around 6.6 million small businesses fit in the category of "homepreneurs", they provide at least half of their total monthly income. 75% of them are working at their businesses full-time.
  • Small home businesses are not backed by venture capitalist so they tend to often employ American workers.
  • c. It's the real business people are doing at home, some of them had been doing the business for as long as 15 years now.
  • Approximately, more than half of these homepreneurs had employees and almost 40 percent said they had around 5 workers on their payroll. The total figure stands at 13.2 million employed under them.
  • Around 35 percent of them made more than $125,000 in revenues each year.
