Tips: Setting up a Home Office.
- Buy refurbished equipment from large corporate offices. For the same cost as new phones, computers and copiers designed for home use, you’ll get sturdier equipment with more features.
- Upgrade your machines instead of replacing them. You can use generic parts to save even more money.
- Instead of using dial up service for your computer, get a DSL high-speed Internet service. For a low monthly fee, you can have instant, unlimited access to the Internet without tying up a phone line in your home.
- When you need help, hire students and part-timers. There are plenty of computer smart students and moms re-entering the workforce who would prefer to work half days.
