Franchise Solutions’ Business Directory Showcases Home-Based Concepts with Freedom & Flexibility

PRLog (Press Release) - Aug 13, 2009 -
Technological devices and developments have enabled people to conduct business from home- or virtually any location. Home-based businesses and individuals that telecommute enjoy numerous advantages. In addition to providing greater flexibility, home-offices help businesses minimize their overhead expenses and reduce their carbon footprint. Aspiring business owners that are interested in running a business from home can explore the variety of home-based franchise and business opportunities highlighted in the Business Franchises, Work from Home section (http://www.franchisesolutions.com/work_at_home_businesse ...) of Franchise Solutions’ business directory.

Franchises and businesses in numerous industries feature home-based business models and prospective owners often don’t need to possess previous industry experience to qualify. In addition to the lifestyle benefits that working remotely provides, home-based concepts typically have lower startup costs and operating expenses than brick and mortar businesses. Since there is no formal storefront required with a home-based concept, there are no costly retail lease fees and often less fixtures and equipment to purchase.
eMed-ID (http://www.franchisesolutions.com/franchise/eMedID_Franc ...) is a home-based franchise opportunity, featured on Franchise Solutions’ Web site, that gives would-be business owners the chance to become part of the growing, recession-resistant healthcare industry. eMed-ID is the nation’s only medical identity and Silver Alert adult identification franchise system. eMed-ID franchisees offer consumers both a USB device that electronically stores an individual’s medical history, as well as a Caregiver Card which contains a personal profile and specific medical information, and can be given to law enforcement if an adult goes missing.

eMed-ID franchisees receive a complete turnkey business system that includes comprehensive training, support, equipment and initial inventory. The business features low startup costs and can be run on a full- or part-time basis. eMed-ID also offers an area director opportunity. eMed-ID area directors recruit, train and support eMed-ID franchise owners; and benefit from a revenue sharing structure on franchise fees and product sales within their territory.

Personal growth and development is another sector that continues to flourish regardless of economic fluctuations. With The LifeStyle Advisor business opportunity (http://www.franchisesolutions.com/franchise/LifeStyle_Ad ...), aspiring business owners can build a business marketing multi-media and interactive personal growth and development products. The LifeStyle Advisor business takes less than 20 to 25 hours per week to manage and can be run from a home office or any location using a computer and cell phone. There are no franchise fees and previous experience is not necessary. The low investment opportunity includes training and support, as well as assistance from a business mentor.
