Q - Does a telecommute company (such as the legitimate companies listed on this site) require any fees to get started working?

A - The only fees that should be required are for specific software in order to do the work, a headset for customer service, a foot pedal for transcription work, and for some companies, a background check. If a company requires any other fees than the ones listed above such as start up or registration fees...these are usually scams. Always do your research.


Q - Does a person have to have experience in order to work at home?

A - For work at home in general, one does have to have basic Internet navigation skills and basic typing skills. For a lot of the telecommute jobs that are available, one does have to have certain skill sets. It depends on which company you are applying for as to what skills you need to get the job. For each job listed, it usually states "specifics of experience needed" and often times will require a resume from you. A few of the companies will train you on the job and if so, it will be stated on the company's website. Also some of the companies will require you to train on site for so many months of said company before you are allowed to work at home.

A - Below are the number one signs of a scam:

1) Registration fees
2) No contact information

4) Free hosted website

Q - What is the difference from a work at home job and a work at home business?

A - A work at home job is when you are hired by an employer/company and you are paid a set wage.

A home business can be anything you like. You are paid for all sales made by your marketing efforts. With a home business, you have to sell products or your services.

A - For telecommute jobs, it all depends on what company you apply for. The pay varies for each job/company. For a home business, you control how much money you can make. You can make as much as you want. It will also depend on how hard you work at marketing your home business.

A - For telecommute jobs, it depends on what company you apply for and how many hours they require. For a home business, it depends on how much time you want to invest in your business as to how much money you make.
