This book will not only give you the proper, down to Earth information about selling your items on eBay, but it will also tell you what doesn't sell. Charity Cason gives you her personal stories of items that she bought and resold for massive profits. There is no "theory" in this book.

Praise for Christine Durst and Michael Haaren:
"Work At Home Now is the ultimate guide for teleworkers. Its smart, practical advice and trove of great resources and tips will be valuable to anyone hoping for the freedom and challenge of working at home."
--Daniel H. Pink, author of Free Agent Nation and A Whole New Mind
"America's ultimate expert on work at home"
--Woman's World Magazine, on Christine Durst
"A must-read for anyone considering a home-based job."
--Fortune Magazine, on The 2-Second Commute
"Chris and Mike know the home-based career arena better than anyone I've met."
--Jeannie Lopez, Core Compliance Expert, Spouse Employment and Volunteer Program, United States Air Force Academy
"Chris and Michael know from personal experience about working virtually."
--BusinessWeek
Many legitimate home-based jobs and projects can be found online, but trustworthy guidance is scarce. Worse, with a 56-to-1 scam ratio in work-at-home ads, the terrain is a minefield of fraud.Nevertheless, customer service agents, researchers, test scorers, tutors, writers, and concierges are just a few of the many people regularly hired to work from home. A growing number of Fortune 500 companies, including UnitedHealth Group, American Express, and Northrop Grumman, also hire home-based personnel.
In Work at Home Now, you'll learn:
* The top insider tips on good and bad Google search terms.
* How to find the "needles in the haystack" on Craigslist, Indeed, Monster, CareerBuilder, and other big sites.
* Where the real jobs for mystery shoppers, transcriptionists, and similar part-time specialties can be found.
* Scam-spotting tips that even law enforcement doesn't know. Including interviews with hiring managers and successful home-based workers, Work at Home Now is the ultimate guide to finding the work-at-home job or project you want most. |
