This review is from: Scrapbooking for Profit: Cashing in on Retail, Home-Based and Internet Opportunities (Paperback)

This book was informative for basic info, like direct selling companies and marketing.It lacked more updated info for websites and selling directly on the internet which is so important in this day. It's over 5 yrs old.

This book is okay. It's fairly easy to read. Not as much info as some other books available, but not a bad investment if you're looking into using scrapping as a source of income.
