Work at Home Now: The No-nonsense Guide to Finding Your Perfect Home-based Job, Avoiding Scams, and Making a Great Living Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)I've been a long-time fan of the authors' website, the RatRaceRebellion, and when I had an opportunity to read their newest book, I jumped on it. I've read lots of "work at home" books, and they all said basically the same things. Durst's and Haaren's new book doesn't dwell on the same old things that are in the other books; instead, it jumps right to the heart of what all new home-based workers want to know - where to find work. Not only do the authors list a multitude of websites offering work-at-home opportunities, they've checked out every one of the websites, plus they've organized the listing into job types (they've included categories such as "merchandiser" and "notary" that are more "work FROM home). They've even included a category of websites for work in the "adult" industry (if you're so inclined)!
The authors have also done a great job showing readers how to do effective Google and Craigslist searches for work, and they tell what to look for in order to avoid scams.
All in all, this is a very well-written and extremely well-organized book about how to find a good home-based job and avoid all the scams out there. I highly recommend it!

All Moms Work: Short-term Career Strategies for Long-range Success (Capital Ideas for Business & Personal Development) Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)ALL MOMS WORK does just what it's subtitle suggests: It offers short-term career strategies for long-rang success! And that's what any career-minded mother needs who decides to make raising her children her first priority. The book suggests ways to keep your resume fresh, earn money through part-time jobs, and/or study for a new career while being a parent. What I really liked was its nonjudgmental attitude and its realistic career strategies because, let's face it, most mothers will return to work when necessity or timing is right. Sharon Reed Abboud is obviously a mother who is a skilled career strategist and a knowledgeable friend.

Etsy Success - How to Make a Full-Time Income Selling Jewelry, Crafts, and Other Handmade Products Online (Mogul Mom Work-at-Home Book Series) Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)As someone who is more creative than good at business, I'd rather be making my jewelry than having to spend time trying to promote my Etsy store. But let's face it, the site has gotten so big that you can easily get lost in the crowd of other sellers.
This book covered basic marketing ideas. Some were obvious, others were ones I hadn't thought of (such as posting jewelry making tutorials on Youtube to help get my name out there). I liked that there were a variety of ideas that ranged from easy things to ones that could work if you wanted to invest more time into your marketing (by creating a weekly e-mail newsletter, for example). I also appreciated the offline advertising advice as well.
Each bit of advice also included an explanation as to why such a marketing tactic would work. The gist of it is, you want to have an ongoing relationship with your customers rather than having them buy once and there is no communication after that. It's almost like turning your customers into "fans" who appreciate you staying in touch and giving them free information and special deals. Basically, this book gave me a new outlook on how to promote my Etsy store in a way that doesn't leave me feeling like a used car salesman.
I give this book four stars because part of it was devoted to how to set up an Etsy store. Wouldn't someone who bought this book already know how to do that? While the section isn't long, I think more useful information could have been given instead.
