5.0 out of 5 stars A comprehensive "real world" book, July 3, 2000

By	L. J. Fabans (Los Gatos, CA USA) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

I've read a lot of books on being a work at home mother, starting up a business, and how to be successful as a teleworker. Every book has at some good information.
This book has great information in all areas: how to manage the kids, the job, and keep your sanity. What I enjoyed about this book was that it mixed Cheryl Demas' research with comments from real life people who posted on (...)
Like most teleworking books, it starts with the analysis if staying at home and being an entrepreneur is for you, and why it is such a groovy idea.
Then it moves into choosing a business that works best with your goals and desires, and how to make that transition with the support of the whole family.
I giggled throughout chapter 7 as to whether your husband truly supports your business. I find her conclusion (that the husband becomes very supportive once the wife starts bringing in money) to be right on the mark.
Technically, it's an easy book to read. It's a nice size for reading in bed, the font is a nice serif with amusing cartoons throughout. And the language is good English with no confusing jargon.
Even though I've been in business for 18 months, I found a wealth of useful information that I'm going to incorporate to help my business run better to free me up to do the actual fun stuff.

5.0 out of 5 stars "The Girlfriends Guide to Working at Home", January 7, 2002

By	halleyg (Georgia USA) - See all my reviews

As a newbie to the WAHM world, I really enjoyed this book and found it helpful and encouraging. Cheryl has such a great sense of humor - I loved all of the analogies she uses throughout the book and the stories she shares about her kids, who are pretty funny, too. She reassures you that being home with your kids really is worth it - whether you are stressed out or haven't seen the light of day in weeks. After reading this book I finally felt excited and motivated about being a WAHM instead of nervous and scared. Thanks, Cheryl, for the inspiration!

5.0 out of 5 stars Can't Put It Down, June 29, 2000

By	"adarmas" (West Covina, CA USA) - See all my reviews

As soon as I received my copy of this book I dove right into it. I am half way through it and can already tell you that it is definitely one the better books on work-at-home advise. Cheryl Demas does not write in mumbo-jumbo terms and uses real-life scenarios. I could relate to almost every example of a WAHM I have read in the book so far. The input from other WAHMs is also very helpful and encouraging, I realized I am not alone in struggles of balancing family and work.

I recommend this book to anyone (not just Moms) who is considering a home-based business, if for nothing else, it's encouraging and inspirational aspect.
