There are no forms: call, text or email only. ## Key pages - [Home](https://businesshome.ca/): BusinessHome.ca helps owners of home-based service businesses across Canada price properly, get found without a shopfront, fill a sane schedule, make a first hire and decide when it is time to leave the house. - [Services](https://businesshome.ca/services/): Pick the service that matches the question you are stuck on today. Most owners need one or two of these, not all five, and we will tell you which in the free first conversation. - [Areas](https://businesshome.ca/areas/): We work with home-based owners in every province and territory, meeting by video call or in person and talking by phone, text and email. Each regional page covers the local market, the seasons, and the provincial offices a growing home business should know. - [About](https://businesshome.ca/about/): BusinessHome.ca advises Canadians who are growing a service business from home. We belong to the Sedighi.ca and SAZ.ca group, run from Vancouver, BC, under Ali Sedighi, MBA. - [Results](https://businesshome.ca/results/): Our published results come from HVAC and heating companies. They are not home-based-business results, but the methods behind them, service-area visibility, trust-building and steady lead flow, are the same ones we apply here. - [Pricing](https://businesshome.ca/pricing/): Consulting from $175 an hour, fixed-price projects from $3,500 and retainers from $2,500 a month, in Canadian dollars. The first 30-minute consultation is free, with no obligation. - [FAQ](https://businesshome.ca/faq/): Short, direct answers to the questions home-based owners ask before working with us, from what it costs to who owns the listings we set up. - [Contact](https://businesshome.ca/contact/): Call or text (604) 632-4959, or email Ali@Sedighi.ca. We keep Mon–Fri 9–6 Pacific hours, and messages that arrive later wait in the queue for the next working morning. ## Services - [First hire](https://businesshome.ca/services/first-hire/): We test whether your numbers can carry a second person, decide which role comes first, and prepare the questions you need answered by the CRA, your workers' compensation board and an accountant. - [Getting found](https://businesshome.ca/services/getting-found/): With no sign out front, your business only exists where people search and ask. We set up those places so you look established and trustworthy, without publishing your home address where you don't have to. - [Leaving home](https://businesshome.ca/services/leaving-home/): We cost a move to commercial space against staying put, look at in-between options like shared units and storage, and set the specific signals that tell you when moving makes sense. - [Pricing review](https://businesshome.ca/services/pricing-and-profit/): A pricing review works out what an hour of your business really costs, then sets rates, minimums and travel charges that pay for the time you never invoice. - [Scheduling](https://businesshome.ca/services/scheduling-and-capacity/): We redesign your working week so more of it is paid, travel shrinks, admin has a fixed home, and the business stops spilling into family time. ## Coverage - [Alberta](https://businesshome.ca/areas/alberta/): Alberta home-based owners work in two large, spread-out metro areas with long winters. Scheduling around cold snaps and chinooks, and pricing for suburban distances, matter as much as getting found. - [British Columbia](https://businesshome.ca/areas/british-columbia/): In BC, a home-based owner's biggest challenges are crossing a congested Lower Mainland, working from strata housing, and the high cost of space when it is time to leave home. The Interior and North add longer winters and longer drives. - [Manitoba](https://businesshome.ca/areas/manitoba/): Manitoba's home-based market is concentrated in Winnipeg, with Brandon, Steinbach and Winkler as distinct smaller centres. A long, very cold winter makes scheduling discipline and indoor-season planning essential. - [New Brunswick](https://businesshome.ca/areas/new-brunswick/): New Brunswick's home-based market is spread across three main cities and many smaller communities, with English- and French-speaking customers. Reputation and bilingual reach often matter more than heavy advertising. - [Newfoundland and Labrador](https://businesshome.ca/areas/newfoundland-and-labrador/): Most of the province's home-based demand sits around St. John's, with Corner Brook, Grand Falls-Windsor and Gander as separate centres and Labrador as its own world. Weather and distance shape every schedule. - [Nova Scotia](https://businesshome.ca/areas/nova-scotia/): Nova Scotia's home-based market centres on Halifax, with Cape Breton, Truro and smaller coastal communities beyond. Changeable maritime weather and long coastal drives shape how a home business schedules and prices. - [Ontario](https://businesshome.ca/areas/ontario/): Ontario has the country's largest home-based market, but it is split across dozens of municipalities with their own rules and a road network where one wrong booking can cost an afternoon. - [Prince Edward Island](https://businesshome.ca/areas/prince-edward-island/): PEI is a small, connected market where almost every customer knows someone you've worked for. Growth comes from reputation, careful pricing and planning around a snowy maritime winter. - [Quebec](https://businesshome.ca/areas/quebec/): In Quebec, a home-based business must plan its marketing in French from the start, under the Charter of the French Language. Montréal, Québec City, Laval and Gatineau are distinct markets, and winter is long and snowy. - [Saskatchewan](https://businesshome.ca/areas/saskatchewan/): Saskatchewan home-based businesses work in two mid-sized cities and a wide rural province, under some of the coldest winters in southern Canada. Distance and reputation shape growth more than competition does. - [Territories](https://businesshome.ca/areas/territories/): In Yukon, the Northwest Territories and Nunavut, a home-based business usually serves one community, under some of the harshest winters in the country. Reliability, reputation and careful pricing matter more than reach. ## Guides and articles - [Guides](https://businesshome.ca/guides/): Three long-form guides covering the money decisions that shape a home-based service business: what to charge, when to hire, and when to leave home. - [Pricing guide](https://businesshome.ca/guides/pricing-a-home-based-service/): Price from the whole week, not the billed hour. Count every hour the business takes, add your costs and target pay, and build rates, minimums and travel charges from that. - [First-hire guide](https://businesshome.ca/guides/solo-to-first-hire/): Hire when your prices are right, your week is tight and you are still turning work away. Then pick the role that frees the most billable hours per dollar, and ask the right offices the right questions first. - [Leaving-home guide](https://businesshome.ca/guides/when-to-move-out-of-home/): Move when a specific constraint is costing you more than the space would, with a margin for slow months. Until then, a cheaper stepping stone often solves the real problem. ## Optional - [Full text](https://businesshome.ca/llms-full.txt) - [Parent company](https://sedighi.ca)
