What a neat and useful tool this book is. Many different audiences can benefit from parts of this text for instance if you are like me considering the idea of a home-based business or for others who have already taken the leap. Authors Jill Hart and Diana Ennen kindly and with great tips guide the reader into specifics of what will be needed from a person to run a business from home, various types of businesses. All throughout they focus on faith and family first and talk about the difficulties but the benefits if you are successful. I am entirely grateful that I read this one as it gave me several ideas to file. After much prayer and consideration this is one that I’ll come back to, to read some of the chapters with more deliberation and goal focus. I highly recommend this.

There were two things that I felt when I read this book. One was “oh I wish I had had this resource when I was starting out 25 years ago” and “oh my, that’s a good idea I’ll do that next”. In otherwords, this book is appropriate for women starting a business or is involved in a successful business but needs some new update ideas. The writing is good, clear, well thought out, easy to understand. The chapters cover everything from how to determine if working at home is for you or just a wish, what kind of businesses are available, and if you have a web site presence, what to do and how to get it noticed, and to have an exit strategy if you need to get out of it. These ladies have successful at-home businesses so they actually know what they are talking about. That makes an enormous difference in the quality of the information and tips. As they point out, men may have great business ideas but they don’t understand that you won’t get anywhere phoning a woman during nursing time. They point out that it’s important to turn off the phone, close the door and have family time. After all, that’s why you want to work at home. There’s even a page listing things that a home office requires and that buying them when school supplies are on sale is a great idea. As you can tell, I loved the book and gave it 5 stars.

Although I’ve been a freelance writer and conference speaker for more than 13 years, I still found helpful information in this book. Of course when I started, the internet and social network sites weren’t available, so reading this contemporary book gave me fresh ideas and new leads.
All I can say is; wish I would’ve had this valuable tome when I launched my vertical learning curve to a home-based business.

No morning traffic, no office politics, the flexibility to be home with the kids when they need you the most. . . sound too good to be true?
It’s not easy, but the dream can be a reality for you with the help of authors, Jill Hart and Diana Ennen. They don’t sugarcoat the stay-at-home experience, “monotonous, even tedious. . . ” is part of their list of challenges.
But Jill and Diana also know, difficulties aside, it’s worth it. This book is full of their real life advice–things they’ve learned through time and effort that you can learn by reading their book. They help you choose the right home-based business, set up and manage your office, guide you through the maze of marketing, find answers for tax and other bookkeeping questions, and help you stay motivated. Sound like a dream? The dream can be a reality with their well-timed book. In today’s economy, when jobs are scarce, it may well be the perfect time to give working-at-home a try. Allow the experts that have lived it guide you toward your dream job–at home.
