Book Description

January 1998
. Nothing is more fun or rewarding than starting your own business. And what could be better than doing it at home! Whether you are a stay-at-home mom looking to earn some extra cash, or fresh out of school and just starting your career, a previously employed middle manager, or just looking to profit from a favorite hobby or skill, you won't believe just how quick, easy, and fun it can be to have your own business.

In this exciting book, author and entrepreneur Katina Jones has selected the 200 businesses that are best suited for working at home. No matter what your professional background, you'll find a challenging opportunity that will meet your personal and financial needs. Entries highlight the pros and cons of each business, as well as the skills or equipment needed, any start-up and hidden costs, and potential problems that might arise. Complete with tips on advertising, marketing, and motivation, as well as dozens of interview with people who have already succeeded, this book can make the difference between success and failure for your new business.

3.0 out of 5 stars Designed more around professionals wanting to work at home., July 20, 1999
By A Customer
This review is from: Easy to Start, Fun to Run & Highly Profitable Home Businesses (Paperback)
Slightly dissappointing. I thought it would give more of an insight to "simpler" jobs at home rather than professionals wanting to work at home - which is what a large majority of what the book covered. The book also covered ideas that would work better in larger cities and areas. For the items that were listed, the descriptions on some were vague, others went into great detail.

1.0 out of 5 stars Disappointing!, June 14, 1999
By A Customer
This review is from: Easy to Start, Fun to Run & Highly Profitable Home Businesses (Paperback)
This is a very simple book listing possible business ventures. If you want a book to explain in detail how to set up a home based business, this is not the book for you.

1.0 out of 5 stars extremely disappointing, August 30, 2001
By A Customer
This review is from: Easy to Start, Fun to Run & Highly Profitable Home Businesses (Paperback)
Waste of money to buy. Most of businesses are for professionals whom I doubt would need to buy this "self-help" type book. More information is readily available on the web than this book even chips away at. Go to the library or use the internet.
