Work
at Home Now: The
No-nonsense Guide to Finding
Your Perfect Home-based Job, Avoiding Scams, and Making a Great Living
 Co-written
by home-based career experts Christine Durst and Michael Haaren, this
timely book will help job seekers come out on the right side of the
60-to-1 scam ratio that plagues the work-at-home job arena, and quickly
navigate their way to a legitimate home-based career.
As the designers of the highly-successful Home-Based Career &
Telework Job Development Program for the US Department of State and the
US Armed Forces, Durst and Haaren have trained thousands of
work-at-home “wannabes.”
They know firsthand that
job seekers are not looking for heavy data and statistics about
telework, nor do they want to waste precious time reading vague
information about the types of work they “may want to
consider.”
Work
at Home Now
sets itself apart from other titles in the
field by touching only lightly on telework statistics and introductory
matter, and focusing instead on what job seekers want most – the fastest
and safest route to
an appropriate job.
Readers will find details on hundreds of companies that actively hire
home-based workers (including 400+ websites), interviews with key
personnel from hiring companies, resume-enhancement tips, Internet
job-search terms that actually work, the latest in scam-spotting
techniques, and other “immediate action”
information.

2-Second Commute: Join
the Exploding Ranks of Freelance Virtual Assistants
 In The
Two-Second Commute: Join the Exploding Ranks of Freelance Virtual
Assistants,
readers discover a simple but empowering self-employment solution that
is fast becoming an international phenomenon—the Virtual
Assistance
industry.
As
recently featured in Business Week and Time
Magazine,
Virtual
Assistants (VAs) are home-based entrepreneurs—work-at-home
moms and
dads,
retirees, military and Foreign Service spouses, people with
disabilities,
homeschoolers, and aging boomers sick of the rat race—who are
running
their
own shows from spare rooms and basements, offering business support
services
to other small businesses via email, phone and fax. It's one of the
most
explosive industries of our time, with entrepreneurs helping other
entrepreneurs
around the globe—an incredible symbiosis! And it’s
all brought together
by the Internet.
But
most exciting of all, "VA'ing" is offering thousands of individuals
their
first chance to stretch their entrepreneurial wings.
The
runaway success of the co-authors' Portable Career &
Virtual
Assistant
Training Program™ (developed for active-duty US
Military Spouses
and
being delivered on military bases worldwide) demonstrates the strong
demand
for a quick and user-friendly "virtual career" program. The
Two-Second
Commute: Join the Exploding Ranks of Freelance Virtual Assistants
is
based on this popular, groundbreaking training, and provides a complete
how-to guide that is liberally peppered with tips and pointers
submitted
by VAs from all walks of life.
