Starting and Managing a Business From Your Home
Your Professional Image
Developing a professional image may be hard if you work out of your home. Projecting a businesslike
image is an important part of building credibility with your customers and contributes to your own
professional self-image. Design a logo or have one designed; order business cards and stationery. Set
regular business hours. Use an answering machine or answering service. If other members of the
family also answer the phone, make sure they know what to say. Have a businesslike office or
"showroom" if you meet customers face to face. Consider referring to your apartment number as your
"suite number" or rent a post office box rather than using your street address. Such practices might improve your chances of doing business with potential customers.
