What is some advice to transition to working for a company to working from home?

I'm going to be working for my husband doing his admin stuff. He'll have more time making actual sales, and we're expecting the money he's going to make to cover our family. What do we need to do to get ready for the transition?What is some advice to transition to working for a company to working from home?
I own a small service business, and when I am not actually working at a client's home, I am working on all the other aspects of running my business from my home office. I have been doing this for a year and a half now, and it has been one long learning experience. I can share a few bits of advice.





For one thing, definitely set up a home office area that is to be used for nothing else, and where you can work undisturbed. I like to have a radio or small TV in my office, just for some background noise and so I don't feel too isolated - but that's a personal choice for me. Set up your work environment as works best for you.





Have a plan so that you can avoid the temptation to do work around the house, taking care of children or pets, or run out for a ';quick errand';...when you should be working. It is nice to not have a commute to deal with, and you can take care of personal things during your designated break times. For these reasons, you can find more time in the day to get these sorts of things done. However, if you want your business endeavor to be successful, you must have the ability to be disciplined in getting your work done and have designated times to focus only on your work. It is fun to be able to make your own schedule, but it is challenging when you realize that ';your own'; schedule will have much to do with client's needs and the needs of vendors, banks, etc...more so than your own preferences. Just something to keep in mind.
