Interested in what it’s like to be a home-based tailor

Hi everyone!
I’m new to this great place, as you can probably see. I wonder if any of you guys do any home-based tailoring or if you know anyone who does? I recently got very interested in what it’s like to run a home-based tailoring business and was wondering if you lovely ladies (and gentlemen, maybe) could give me any insights.
As a home-based tailor:
– How do you go about finding new clients?
– Do you have any safety concerns about having new clients come to your house? If so, what precautions do you take, if any?
– If you are a female, would you be fine with having a male client who is a stranger come to your house?
– Are there any particular concerns or frustrations about the work that are worth mentioning?
