Have you found working from home works for you? Maybe you can convince your boss to let you keep working from home.

Tip #1 – Focus primarily on benefits for the team/company, not you

Tip #2 – Bring data. “If you have been working remotely for some time, look into your metrics,” author Kevin Rizer insists. “Ideally, you have performed at (or even exceeded) the level you were at when you were at the office. This is powerful information you can use to your advantage.”

Tip #3 – Be flexible. Your boss may want you in the office a few days a month, or there are important sales meetings, training, or conferences that the company really needs you to attend.

Tip #4 – Suggest a trial period
