Drawing on three decades of running several home-based businesses and
advising other small business owners on how to profitably run theirs, author
Will Limkemann has laid out, in The Successful Home Business Guide,
practical advice about everything a small business owner should know. This
new book from Doubleware Publications, starts with why and how to start a
business, and ends with why and how to end a business.
In researching the book, Mr. Limkemann found that home-based
entrepreneurs are the backbone of small businesses. The United States Census
Bureau numbers reveal that over 20 million businesses, representing over
fifty percent of all businesses, are home-based, and contribute over $300
billion to the economy. A recent survey of home-based businesses conducted
by Cleveland-based Council of Smaller Enterprises (COSE) showed that 79
percent of the surveyed companies had annual gross sales of greater than
$50,000. The COSE survey found that home-based businesses create jobs beyond
just employing the owner. Almost one-half had at least one employee, and 17
percent employed three or more workers. The survey revealed that most
home-business owners are dedicated people who enjoy the benefits of working
from their homes and want to continue to do so, dispelling the myth that
running a home-based business is a stopgap measure until one finds a “real”
corporate job.
With growing unemployment and retirees needing to supplement diminishing
pensions, more people than ever are contemplating starting businesses in
their homes. The Successful Home Business Guide will help a budding
entrepreneur determine whether he or she has what it takes to work for
themselves. If they do, the book will shepherd them through the process of
starting the business and help them profitably manage and run the business
from their homes. Topics include: financing; pricing; marketing and sales;
budgeting; customer service; hiring and firing; balancing work and family
life; time management; and much more. The author, Will Limkemann, is a
professional small business advisor and consultant, is currently running
three businesses from his home, and serves on several boards including the
COSE Home Business Advisory board.
The Successful Home Business Guide is priced at $29.95 and can be ordered
