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"

-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. |

A couple working six months per year for 50 hours per week on 20 acres can net $25,000-$30,000 per year with an investment equivalent to the price of one new medium-sized tractor. Seldom has agriculture held out such a plum. In a day when main-line farm experts predict the continued demise of the family farm, the pastured poultry opportunity shines like a beacon in the night, guiding the way to a brighter future. "All of us interested in seeing an American rural revival should thank Joel and Teresa Salatin for going to the effort and expense to share their experiences and recommendations for pastured poultry with you." —Allan Nation, Editor, The Stockman Grass Farmer |

Product Description:
Does this sound familiar? "If I can just get in front of more qualified prospects, the rest of the selling process becomes easier. It's just getting in front of them that's the challenge." You're no idiot, of course. You can talk shop with any customer who enters your store, asks questions over the phone, or seeks out your specific product or service. But when comes to prospecting for new customers, you'd rather have a root canal! After coaching thousands of salespeople, Keith Rosen, one of America's favorite Sales coaches and trainers, has developed a proven process that anyone could follow to achieve incredible success at attracting more prospects and it's all outlined in his book, The Complete Idiot's Guide to Cold Calling. The fact is, most cold calling efforts are doomed from the start. Salespeople lose sales not due to a lack of effort but because they lack a prospecting system they are comfortable with and can trust that generates greater, consistent results. Anyone can generate new business and make more money with the right prospecting system. So, if you love to sell but hate (or don't like) to prospect, The Complete Idiot's Guide to Cold Calling is your roadmap to cold calling success; showing you exactly how to get in front of the right prospects in less time and create more selling opportunities without the fear, pressure or anxiety associated with cold calling, prospecting or self-promotion. In this guide, you get: * Tools, templates and strategies to create your own painless prospecting and follow-up system that will attract new prospects-and convert them into sales.
* Advice on how to find the best prospects-and avoid those who aren't qualified.
* Suggestions on coping with rejection, boosting your self confidence, eliminating call reluctance, managing a healthy prospecting mindset, and ensuring prospects will listen to what you have to say.
* Methods for establishing a rapport with prospects, understanding their needs, and getting them interested in how your product or service will benefit them.
* The hidden secrets of effective networking and to generating a steady stream of referrals.
* An infallible follow-up system that will keep your name in front of each prospect and protect you from losing sales to your competitors, up until the time they are ready to buy so that you never "Drop the ball" again.
You will also discover how you can:
* Create your MVP (Most Valuable Proposition) that separates you from your competition.
* Craft the compelling reasons that would motivate a prospect to speak with you.
* Prevent and defuse initial objections such as, "I'm not interested," "We don't have any money now" or "Call me back later."
* Develop the right questions and uncover new selling opportunities in seconds so that you can stop wasting precious time on the wrong prospects.
* Compose winning voice mail messages that will ensure more return calls.
So, whether you are an entrepreneur, a business owner, a non-selling professional, a seasoned sales veteran or are just beginning your career in sales, after reading this book you will actually want to prospect! |

Escape the cube. Ditch the commute. It’s not just a dream anymore.
Many people already spend 12 hours a day getting to work, working, getting home from work. Here’s some good news: thanks to advances in technology, acceptance of outsourcing, the trend towards corporate flextime, and other factors, working from home is easier than ever.
Good Morning America’s Workplace Contributor Tory Johnson and consumer advocate Robyn Freedman Spizman tell readers exactly how to turn today’s cultural change to their advantage without giving up an income. Specific business plans will teach them how to:
• Take their current position home
• Find a new company whose policies will allow them to work from home
• Reseach a product they believe in, and sell it from home
• Start their own business, doing something they love, for a minimal initial investment
With real-life stories, a step-by-step plan, resource guides, and lists of scams to avoid, this is the book that will help readers finally make the leap––and show them that they don’t have to give up their family, creativity, or peace of mind to earn a decent salary. |
