Millions of Americans are now working from home every day — and not just working alone. They’re working from home with their spouses, roommates, and children.
Just because many offices are closed, that doesn’t mean that business has stopped. Working from home is critical to keeping our economies going — whether it’s therapists doing telework or teachers providing online courses for their students, or marketers who are creating social media posts from their kitchen table.
Working from home and being your own boss makes your life easier. But that isn’t to say it’s easy. There are challenges and hurdles you must get over to start making money running your own business while running your own household.
But the obstacles are all possible to get over if you plan and start your business the right way. Here are four tips to get you, your business, and your family ready for whatever comes your way.
Maintain a schedule
When your home is your office, it’s easy to feel like you are always at work and therefore, feel you should always be working. But, this can be a burden to both your business and personal life if you don’t know how to turn it off — especially if you have a family. So be sure to schedule hours that you’re working, and try to stay away from the computer if it’s not within that window.
Set expectations
Having clear communication on what children and other household members can (and can’t) do without asking you, will eliminate a lot of headaches. Most of us haven’t spent this much time at home, with this level of responsibility and uncertainty. It can feel like you need to be a Pinterest-perfect homebody with photo-perfect meals and mind-blowing science experiments and museum-quality art projects while still keeping up with your business goals.
This is a time to relax your expectations a bit and be realistic about what has to happen versus what you’d like to have happened.
Do your homework
Yes, this goes for both you and your kids! To reduce friction when you’re running your business while helping your kids, you’ll need to make sure you do your prep work. Along with keeping a standard schedule, make sure you have clear expectations for what needs to happen during work times — in particular during conference calls.
For older children, set a list of things that they can do (and eat!). This is an excellent time for them to work independently on schoolwork, read, or play a game. With younger kids at home, try to schedule calls during nap times or stagger your calls for when a partner is available to supervise.
Get support
There are many ways that you can get support to help you through this chaotic time. Plan times to meet up with in-person and trade-off support days. It can be good for the kids AND the parents, when done correctly. If you’re building your own homeschool, look for other like-minded homeschoolers you can learn from. There are local groups of people as well as online groups that you can be a part of.
Additionally, make sure you’re still taking care of yourself while you’re taking care of your family and your business. Take a shower every day, and get dressed, even if it’s just in clean, cozy clothes. Take time to read a book, or practice some meditation or yoga. Listen to a favorite playlist and have a dance party.
Remember, this is about figuring out what works for you, your business, and your family. Hopefully, these tips and ideas will help when wondering how to run a business and support your child at the same time.
The Journey is what everyday entrepreneurs, like you, need to follow in the pursuit of online success. Our experienced GoDaddy Guides are here to take you through all the steps, both big and small, that you encounter every day.
