Congrats on your ebook, Becky. About to give it a look-see.
Thank you, Connie! This was a fun project, and one I hope will help other aspiring small biz people.

Shashi, thank you for taking the lead in connecting Network Solutions in bringing this book to more small business people all over.
Nice work – thanks.
Using Google’s free MyMaps feature is a great way to set up a map to show off local facilities, attractions etc. It now shows off photos of the area that are in Picasa Albums.
Thanks, Ken, for sharing that great idea! I’ll tuck that away for a future post I’m working on.
There are tons of ways and ideas to start a profitable home business. but for the beginner, its tough to know where to start. This looks like a great book to either find an idea or spark an idea that might linger in the mind of an aspiring entrepreneur. good stuff.
