SOHO, a brand-new term, a brand-new concept. Our SOHO here refers to the white-collar workers who are based on the Internet, can freely choose their jobs according to their hobbies, and are not limited by time, place and development space. More importantly, it is reflected in whether you can freely choose a job according to your own interests and hobbies, and whether the selected job has great room for development. SOHO represents the most advanced productive forces and the most active new economy.
Internet is the foundation of SOHO. Some excellent web design SOHO families almost all have their own personal websites; Updating web pages at home every day is the main job of this kind of SOHO family. These excellent personal websites have gradually attracted the attention of IT companies. As a result, the news that personal websites cooperate with big network companies or are acquired by big network companies is endless in the IT field, and these SOHO people have started new businesses. There are also many people who use their own skills to start online information consulting services and become SOHO people in the information service industry. The most common SOHO occupations are music creation, product salesman, graphic design, advertising production, fashion design, business agency, futures trading, stock speculation and so on. The free and romantic working style of SOHO people attracts more and more young people to join the ranks, and their talents are fully displayed in this sky.
The biggest difference between SOHO and traditional office workers is that they can decide their own location, free time and income. It is also very challenging because it is free. Especially suitable for SOHO are some information-based manufacturing, processing and communication jobs, such as editors, journalists, freelance writers, software designers, website designers, artists such as art and music, financial workers, advertisements and consulting. Because most of their work or main work can be done independently at home or through collaboration with others on the Internet.
SOHO has higher requirements for people's quality. The most important thing is self-control, that is, whether you can manage your time well and grasp yourself well. Secondly, because there is no fixed salary every month after SOHO, your income structure will change, so how to manage your wallet is a problem that must be paid attention to.
In fact, on the one hand, the number of people in this community is increasing internationally, and the popularization of office automation and Internet and the refinement of division of labor will lead to the emergence of a large number of SOHO people. On the other hand, the existence of SOHO group objectively relieves the increasingly important social problem of employment pressure, and how to consciously bring this group into the social division of labor system, and confirm, standardize and protect it from the aspects of identity, legislation, taxation and security is a realistic problem faced by all institutions.
The lifestyle of SOHO people is very different from the traditional lifestyle. They avoid wasting time because of heavy commuting, they stay away from personnel disputes in the office, they engage in jobs they like, and some of them even become their own bosses. They are the new and new human beings of today's era.
The biggest difference between SOHO people and office workers is that work and life are no longer distinct, and office and home are integrated. According to the working methods of SOHO clan, it can be roughly divided into four types:
Set up a SOHO to form a small company with 1~ 10 people, or run a small storefront, or join a chain system. Although the scale of this SOHO is not large, employees may not meet every day, but maintaining efficient contact through the Internet has great flexibility in management. In the field that big companies can't take care of, if a single company can provide suitable goods and services, it will often succeed.
Self-employed people work at home or in a personal studio. They are both bosses and employees, such as writers, artists, consultants, intermediaries and insurance practitioners. Most of them love freedom and are creative in their work.
SOHO, a part-time job, can not only open up financial resources, but also have basic guarantee, which is the choice of people who are conservative and over-entrepreneurial.
Office workers who work at home in SOHO. That is, telecommuters who use modern communication technology to contact the company at home are known as the coolest way of working in the technological age. The difference between them and other SOHO is that they have a fixed work unit and only work part-time at home. In order to coordinate their work, they have to keep in touch with our company.
No matter what kind of SOHO it is, this fashionable way of working has become a worldwide trend. At present, 1/5 workers in the United States are SOHO, and this number is increasing at the rate of 5% every year. Japan, South Korea and Hong Kong are also encouraging individuals to start SOHO companies. Asahi. Com has added a SOHO column on its homepage to introduce the strength of successful SOHO companies, provide a place for SOHO colleagues to exchange information, and provide a guide on how to set up SOHO companies.
SOHO has no special restrictions, nor does it specifically refer to people in the computer industry. Any way of working outside the traditional office, such as working from home, starting a business, personal studio, freelancer, etc. , you can call it SOHO. From professionals to ordinary people, it is possible to set up their own units and be self-reliant. Of course, not everyone is suitable to be a SOHO person. Without the protection of the organization, they will encounter unexpected difficulties and challenges. They must have a strong personality and be able to base themselves on social expertise in order to work hard and boldly travel around the world.
At present, there are many developers of construction and commercial real estate projects named after SOHO in China, such as the famous Jianwai SOHO, Shangdu SOHO and Chengdu SOHO SOHO community.
