Startup costs are typically estimated at around $200 to $1,500, depending on the online tools you use and the insurance coverage you choose. Because the work is done remotely, you do not need premises.

Monthly revenue is typically estimated at around $500 to $3,500, depending on how many clients you work with and how many hours you put in. The estimate assumes at least around 5 hours a week.

Check hiring rules on discrimination, pay transparency and background checks in each state and city where clients operate. Also check background check service rules, professional liability insurance, contractor or employee classification questions, and how you protect candidate data.
