Abstract
Recently SOHO-business has received much attention, nevertheless its figure has not been revealed yet actually. For instance, it is not easy to classify SOHO-workers by what kind of business they do because most of them do several kinds of jobs at the same time. Besides, not a few SOHO-businesses end in failure on the stage of developing businesses actually, which is merely considered to be caused by a lack of earnest in their business because SOHO is considered as a easy way of starting off businesses. However, there are not a few cases that light-hearted ideas lead to great success in SOHO businesses. So, in this paper, analyzing data on survey for SOHO-workers, a way of classifying SOHO-workers by skills needed in their businesses is proposed. Further, factors which decide earnings of SOHO-business are discussed.
