PRLog -- Based on a survey done by EntrepreneursBuildingBlocks.com over 95% of women are working from their home as virtual assistants, 70% of which are married and 75% with children. They have been the hardest hit with the recession and mass lay-offs. However, have bounced back with the advent of jobs from home over the Internet.
Many of these women are happy to swap their old 9-to-5 jobs for a more flexible and relaxed way of earning a living. A Sacramento native who runs her own home-based business says, "I wanted more time with my daughters." Which led her to leave her high-powered job of more than 15 years to start working from home.
With more and more businesses tightening their belts, hiring virtual employees have become a great alternative. Local firms don't have to worry about providing health benefits or pensions. They only need to pay by every hour of work.
As a result, more opportunities have opened up for home-based business workers. And with the help of further advances in technology, their work processes have also improved - making them all the more indispensable.
