4.0 out of 5 stars Definitely Worth a Read!, May 28, 2000
This review is from: How to Start a Home-Based Secretarial Services Business (Paperback)
Ms. Melnik has done an excellent job in writing this book. She provides comprehensive information on all aspects of starting your own secretarial service. She assume's the reader is at the very beginnin stages of planning and does a great job going through the entire process, one step at a time!

The only thing I wish there was more information on was operating this business from an internet standpoint.

This review is from: How to Start a Home-Based Secretarial Services Business (Paperback)
I received How To Start a Home Based Secretarial Services Business well within the time I was told it would arrive and in very good condition. It is much larger than I expected it to be, thorough, and most importantly for me covers using the internet to build the business. It even has sample forms and letters so that I don't have to reinvent the wheel so to speak. Without question it is worth far more than what I paid for it, a definite good investment.
