This review is from: Work@home: A Practical Guide for Women Who Want to Work from Home (Paperback)

This is an incredible book which simply lays out all the steps for working from home. Whitwer brings up many hurdles women might face that you might not normally think of. Best of all, Whitwer approaches each topic in her book from the perspective of putting God first and getting your priorities straight. She gives a very realistic picture of preparing, transitioning, and working from home. I highly recommend this book!

This review is from: Work@home: A Practical Guide for Women Who Want to Work from Home (Paperback)

This has to be one of the best books I've ever read on beginning and running a home-based business...and I've read plenty. Author Glynnis Whitwer packs this book full of information that is useful to the newbie as well as the seasoned home-based business owner. Her chapters include such helpful topics as understanding your call to work at home, realities of working at home, the real cost of work, creating a transition plan and a business plan, balancing work and home and setting up a home office. Plus she offers practical tips on time management and different home-based business opportunities.

I've worked at home for over 10 years now and I still found new ideas in this book that I could implement to help improve my business.

Work @ Home is a one-stop-shop of advice and tips for women who want to work at home. I highly recommend it!

This review is from: Work@home: A Practical Guide for Women Who Want to Work from Home (Paperback)

Well laid out and thorough, this book covers all the essentials of planning out your transition to home-based work. The author is very honest and sets readers up with a realistic portrait of what they can expect as they make decisions and changes. Very glad I read it, and highly recommended to anyone thinking about staying at home or who has recently made the change and isn't finding it to be what they expected!
