Why Home-Based Business Will Boom in the Recession of 2009
There's Always an Upside to Every Downside

In the current recession, many segments of the home-based economy should remain solid, and may even grow. Here are several reasons why home-based business and work-from-home opportunities will increase.

Increased Outsourcing: As the economy contracts, larger companies shed jobs. This inevitably leads to capability and knowledge gaps within surviving companies. Unable to hire back full-time workers, many of these gaps will be filled by home-based workers employined in outsourcing arrangements.

New Business Opportunities: Changes in an economy good or bad - bring new opportunities for different types of businesses. This issue's article on "25 Hard Time Start-Ups" highlights some of them.

More Telecommuting: For many of the same reasons that companies outsource, telecommuting will also grow in a recession. To save money on office overhead and leasing, companies will have many of their more reliable workers telecommute from home.

From Lay Offs to Home-Based: Three million workers have already been laid off in 2008. That number will rise in 2009. Many of those who are laid off will gravitate to home-based businesses, to minimize operating costs in a recession. Small businesses have been the economic engine of the country, and many of those laid off will add to that strength.

Consulting Growth: Many Knowledge-based and high-end service workers will continue to lose jobs in the recession. As has happened in past recessions, a good number of them will become home-based consultants.

High-Tech Foundation: The world of home-based business requires high technology to function (broadband, data and cell communications, etc.). Despite the recession, the level of office support technology has never been stronger nor more affordable. This will keep home-based operations on a competitive foundation.
