Are you good with your hands? Do you have a special knack for building things, typing or data entry? If so, then there is plenty of hands-on work from home opportunities just knocking at your computer screen.

Data entry is a speedy way to make some big bucks, especially if you are good with your hands. For those who thrive on numbers and typing, then data entry is the perfect job for you. There are thousands of companies hiring typists and data entry workers for a variety of different tasks. Some are contract work; others are ongoing. It all depends on how much you want to work and how fast you can move those speedy typing fingers. If you want the work, it’s there for you.

Another great hands-on job is assembly work. This entails putting together different products, much like Santa’s elves. You can do this from home during the day. Products include toys,, jewellery, hand crafts, wood working, photo frames, leather goods and arts and crafts. Companies send you the material, you assemble the product and then send it back to them and they will pay you. If you are good with your hands and have a creative side to you, this is a great career for someone who needs or wants to work from home.

So if you are looking for something different, then consider a career with your hands. You don’t have to leave the house; you don’t have to get your hands dirty; and you don’t have to battle the daily commute.

Opportunity knocks; you just have to answer it.
