The dangers of being home alone & how to grow your business anyway
Published: Wed, 02/20/13
February 20th 2013 Ezine - Issue #128
Hi
It's half-term week (school hols) here in Suffolk, UK so I'm
not alone although with one of my daughter's on hols in Italy
& the other sleeping in late, it's fairly quiet.
This week's challenge is all about collaboration to grow your business.
Being home alone can indeed be lonely so read on for my
10 top strategies to collaborate and get your business out there in
a big way.
In today's Rachel Recommends check out Joe Vitale's 7-Step Formula
which I've listened to again and it's so darned good I decided to leave it in
for you this week in case you missed it.
In this week's Home Business Radio Shows tune in for 'growing your
business with collaboration,' so you can hear me go deeper on this.
Love and success
Rachel

Your Weekly Challenge - Ten Ways to Creatively Collaborate to Grow Your Biz
It can be really lonely working from home so it's critical that
you set up some systems to support yourself.
When I worked in a busy office I used to long for quiet time
to write and study but then when you get it you have to be
extremely diligent in not letting it just slip away.
I'm a combination of introvert and extrovert so most of the time
I love working quietly on my own but with a young family
and busy household I'm never in danger of feeling lonely.
If you're alone at home working online you may feel
lonely sometimes or even if you have a busy house like
me you may still be in danger of feeling isolated or cut
off from others who share your entrepreneurial mindset & lifestyle.
When you're a home based entrepreneur you live a completely
different life to the average mum you meet at the school gates and
let's face it, YOU ARE NOT AVERAGE!
Even if you work partly outside your home or split your time between
jobs as a 5-9er (the new term for people starting part time
businesses while still employed during the day) the more
skilled you become it seems the less most people understand
or relate to you.
You've chosen a different path and it won't be long before
you notice some old friends falling away in a natural renewal
process.
Research shows that good relationships lead to increased
happiness so if you have a tendency to be a bit of a loner
I urge you to plug into some support networks to stay connected
and build new relationships.
Perhaps even more importantly is that the internet is no longer
a place to just sit on your own plugging away; with the advent
of social media it is now a 2-way street and I believe collaboration
is the key to success.
To become well known as an expert in your niche it's essential
that you seek out partnerships or collaborations so you can
position your content and services in front of thousands
of new people.
This is called tapping into OPA 'other people's audience's,' which is a similar
