I am recently divorced.
Savings are running low and I am agorophobic so need home work
So I need a job I can access through my pc
I am very confident over the telephone and can work very flexible hours.
I have been a housewife most of my life so have no real professional skills but I can talk lol
Does anyone know of anything where I can earn maybe 1000 a month?
I would be very greatful of any offer of help

There are plenty of businesses out there looking telesales staff with a basic salary and commission. Quite literally you spend your day contacting businesses and send out emails with quotes. Very rewarding work.
Where are you based?David James aint got nothing on me0 -

Where are you based?
Hi
I am based in Worcester west midlands
Not sure telesales is the best route though, are there any other options?0 -
To be honest the options for something that is 100% home based, doesn't need any previous experience or qualifications, isn't sales and earns £12K a year is going to be very limited.
Spend the afternoon reading through this forum and you can get a few ideas. However most of them are designed to earn an extra hundred pounds here and there (which is why this forum is called Up Your Income) and even the full time positions are self employed usually without guarantee of minimum wage, holiday, sick pay etc and contracts can be terminated at any time.
Can you leave the house at all and are you ok around groups of people or does it have to be purely home based?0 -

Thanks for your help
I would prefer home based work as I suffer just leaving the house.
I hoped to pick the brains of people that know what options I have if thats possible.
Its kind of you to reply0 -
Are there any associations/charities/web groups that you can join that may be able to help you with ideas? I'd imagine your condition is fairly common and so there must be support groups that have had this question many times and may be able to help.
What sort of things are you interested? Is there anything that could be the basis of a business partnership with the other person doing the going out and selling bit?
Sorry if my previous post sounded negative, I've tried purely working from home jobs and it is very difficult to make a full time and more importantly long term income from it. I'm sure it can be done though so don't give up!0 -
I think there are two big problems for the op.
First, as has been pointed out, there is only going to be a limited number of jobs out there that will be suitable for her and secondly, there will be thousands wanting the exact same thing and will be chasing just as hard.
I'm afraid getting a job these days is almost akin to winning the lottery.0 -
There is this kind of job..

Which will tick the box marked money ...But if not then there is an old thread on Arise UK
here :https://forums.moneysavingexpert.com/discussion/1651163
From what I remember it was lower level IT support ...first response when a customer phones and says satellite not working kind of thing.0 -
I am involved in a company where I sell most of the products online, on phone or in person. I make a lot of money and bonuses, msg me if your interested QT0

what is it you sell QT and how much extra do you earn per hour??"Be Excellent to Each Other!"0

I would also like to know what the job is.
I'm looking for something that is home based also as i suffer from social phobia/agoraphobia - though with me it's not the fear of open spaces being outdoors etc, it's being around people and that kind of thing.
So i'm looking for work that i can do online without using the phone much if at all. Good luck OP and hope you find something soon.
I did try the adult texting but to make any kinda full time pay money you have to be doing it all day and night 7 days a week.0
