From Booklist
The Edwardses have built themselves into a two-person industry. For nearly 10 years, in books and countless articles and columns on the Web, they have dispensed advice concerning self-employment, home-based businesses, and working at home. This guide, now in its third edition, is a proven helpful compendium of business opportunities suited for those who want to work from home. It has more than 150 pages more than its earlier edition; and nearly 25 new businesses have been added, replacing almost a like number that are no longer so popular. An introductory section explains the requirements for operating a home-based business. Then each of the profiles outlines what the business entails, contrasts its advantages and disadvantages, lays out specific steps to get started, and suggests ways to identify and attract customers. Trade associations, professional organizations, books, seminars, and Web sites for each business are also included. This book's greatest asset, however, comes from the inclusion of specific estimates for start-up costs and recommendations on how to price products and services. David Rouse
