Hey y’all,
I (26f) wanted to see if is possible to start working from home with only retail and food service experience + a bachelors is sociology. I have been managing my family’s small business (retail sales) on and off for 6ish years now and have some experience working restaurant jobs during high school and college in between the family business work.
I dislike sales, especially if I have to convince someone to buy something they don’t need or want. I do not excel at sales, but I am good at customer retention as I am very sociable. I don’t know if I have any practical skills for remote work, I don’t type very fast (but willing to train) and don’t do calculations past basic algebra very well. I excel in written communication over verbal, but like I said I am very sociable so that sometimes helps mask my verbal inadequacies. I have data entry and analysis knowledge from my degree, but it’s been 4 years since I graduated so I’d have to brush up on some things to get back into the flow of data entry and analysis work.
In managing my family’s business, I have become worn out with dealing with the general public. I do not want to do call center work for this reason, unless if pays very well. I am burnt out on pandering to customers. So anything that is NOT that would be great!! I would like to make the same I am making now if not more, so $16.50/hr 35+ hours a week.
Is this feasible for me now, or should I gain more experience?
