Customer Reviews

Super resource for the SOHO (small office/home office worker

I've been reading Barbara's books for over 10 years now. I first came across her work when I wanted to start a business as a crafter in the early 1990's and read her craft business books like a Bible--they were incredibly helpful in helping me get started in that business. Now that I've transitioned out of that into a coach working with women's small business owners, many of whom are working from home, I think I've found a new Bible for the home-based professional. Homemade Money: Starting Smart is a must-see for anyone contemplating starting a business from home! It really is an "A-Z Crash Course" in everything one might need to begin a home-based biz, from coming up with the idea to opening the doors and welcoming customers. The resources section alone is worth many times the cost of the book--it's incredibly comprehensive and will save anyone hours and hours of research, and the interviews she conducts with successful home business owners are incredibly insightful and motivating (my interview is on page 113). I highly recommend both volumes of Homemade Money for any of my coaching clients who want a comprehensive and realistic overview of the life and times of a home business owner.

Start Living a Homemade Dream!

As a work-at-home expert, the one thing that I get asked over and over again is how I started and how I manage my business, while taking care of my family and raising my children. Many people just cannot fathom how one quits a job and then starts a business out of their home. Author Barbara Brabec really takes the mystery out of working from home with this great book, Homemade Money: Starting Smart. With information and resources for everything from a quiz to see if you really have what it takes to work out of your home, to figuring out what home business is right for you ... and beyond, with information about how to run (and profit!) from a home-based business. With the rising instances of people working from home, this book is the perfect resource for everyone who has the drive and determination to making working from home a reality! I highly recommend this book as a must-have work-at-home resource.
