sba study: home-based biz excels in return-on-revenue

does it seem sometimes that everyone’s an entrepreneur in the u.s.? maybe here’s why…

“the findings of the study suggest that individuals choosing to enjoy a preferred lifestyle, can operate an unincorporated home-based business knowing that their return on revenues will be greater than if they rent business space. as a home-based business owner, with few or no employees, they can work the hours and seasons necessary to reach the needed level of revenues and net income. those wanting to maximize income can hire employees, work more hours, and operate outside the home. home-based sole proprietors who take the home business deduction contribute a total of $102 billion in revenue to the economy. the 10 million “all other” firms, which appear to be largely home-based, contribute an additional $431 billion. self-employment trends may rise due to demographic, technology and life-style factors.”
