Legitimate Telecommuting Resources?

[Rachel]

I agree with Ginger's Mom and think you should look locally. I've been telecommunting for almost 30 years. I do the bookkeeping and answering the phones of a small remodeling company. The process aided by a computer software program where files can be transferred back and forth between my office and the man I do the work for. When I started out I used to answer telephones, take messages, and set up appointments for a variety of different companies.

Quick Books is a joy of a software program for bookkeeping and can accommodate the needs of most small businesses. Keep your eyes and ears open for someone in your area who is starting a business or growing one beyond what they can handle themselves. You might want to try putting an ad in the paper offering your services.

Are you bi-lingual? I know of work-from-home for people who can do translation. In fact I use someone who works from home to do written translations.

Thanks for the replies. I was afraid that the opportunities are few and far between and are really the luck of the draw.

Are you bi-lingual?

No, not completely. I can carry on a conversation and I joke that I know enough to get myself arrested and maybe back out of trouble but that's it.

The search continues.
