Transform your Lifestyle by Working Online
If we take a look
at our work, we see a routine of getting up early, sporting our business
attire, heading off to the office or other place of work, then after our time
is up, we have to negotiate the traffic, finally arriving home for a nice meal
and a few hours of leisure, only to go to bed and repeat the entire cycle the
next day.
Breaking Free
of the Rat Race
Imagine having a
job that allowed you to get up when you like! No more getting dressed up, no
more battling with the rush hour traffic and you have the freedom to work when
you want to. You are no longer a slave to the clock, yet you still have
deadlines to meet, but the important thing is you delegate your time, not your
employer. The other big benefit is that you can work from any location, so if
you suddenly have the urge to stay on the coast for a couple of days, then why
not? As long as you have your computer and an Internet connection, you can work
at any time, from any location. Thousands of Australians are enjoying the
freedom that being a digital nomad brings, and here are a few ways that you can
join them.
- E-Commerce
– Build your site, then
hook up with an Australian digital marketing
agency who will create a
digital marketing plan that will drive customers to your website. A great deal
of planning needs to go into creating a shopping cart website, but it is
possible to make a good living doing this, and with your supplier sending
products to customers, you can run the entire business from your laptop. You
don’t even need an office, as you can work anywhere, and many successful
e-commerce entrepreneurs can be found staying in exotic locations like Costa
Rica or Thailand, running their business online. For more information about
this, here is a great blog on how to set up an
e-commerce store, which is a must-read. - Web Content Writer – If you have a flair for the written word, why not
make a living writing blogs? There are agencies that connect content writers
with companies and the more you do it, the better you become, and your rates go
up. Once registered with an agency, you simply login every morning and if you
wish to work that day, you check ‘available’, or if you fancy a day at the
beach, inform them you are unavailable. It’s really that easy. - Language Teaching – If you are a native English speaker, you can work
as an online English teacher, and there are literally millions of Chinese people
who are eager to speak English. Google an online language school and you can
register as a teacher. Like any other job, you would start on the lowest rates,
but after a while, you can make a good living if you are prepared to put in the
hours. Here is a great government website that offers information on teaching
resources, which is a recommended
read.
Working online is a bit like
being on vacation all the time, and once you have had a taste of the digital
nomad lifestyle, there’s no way you will go back to the stressful life you left
behind.
