3 ways technology has changed the world for home business owners

I love being born in this time and I don’t know how I could have lived at any other time in history. New technological advances have made my life much easier as a home business owner. I am excited by the possibilities available with technology today and excited by thoughts of technology that will be available very soon.

The purpose of this article is to share with you, as a home-based business owner, some thoughts on how today’s technological advances are improving the way we can run our businesses. If you are living in the past, it is time to change your way of thinking and use technology in your favor.

Here are three things to think about as a work-from-home entrepreneur:

Social networks and Web 2.0 have changed marketing. The old rules of advertising made it difficult for a home-based business to compete with larger companies. The Internet, through search engines, web 2.0 and social networks, has changed everything for the benefit of smaller operators. Yes, big companies can use the internet, but if you target your market correctly, you can still be very successful.

Smartphones have improved people’s lives. I came very late to the idea of ​​a smartphone, even though I have worked in the industry for many years. But now, I don’t know how I ever lived without one. I started with a BlackBerry, moved on to an HTC, and now I could never live without my iPhone. It’s so damn convenient. I can send and receive emails, make calls, send and receive text messages and there are many other applications that improve my life. It gives me back a lot of time. I can answer a lot of emails and work during my downtime during the day. For example, I often write articles on my iPhone during the day if I’m waiting at a cafe or something. I usually save about an hour a day.

You can run a business from home but sell to the world. The Internet, in my opinion, has had the greatest influence on humanity of all inventions. Now, with an Internet connection, I can sell my products from home to anywhere in the world. Previously, as a home-based business owner, my target audience would probably be limited to the surrounding suburbs.

Technology has changed the world, and as you can see from the above, there are three technological advancements that have had a dramatic effect on home based businesses.
