From the Library Journal - The Edwardses (with Douglas) have done it again! Following the success of their classic Working from the Home ( LJ 3/15/85), the noted home office experts here address the issue of how small businesses can attract customers. While other current titles on small and home-based businesses include chapters on marketing, advertising, public relations, direct mail, and sales promotion for the small and/or home-based business entrepreneur, none do it so well or so comprehensively as these authors. They offer tips on networking, media kits, news releases, radio and TV advertising, and other topics. This well-researched and well-written guide is essential for any library that needs small and/or home-based business books.
