I have a couple reasons that I want to tell you about The Work at Home Woman's Business Book Club. First, and most importantly, it is an EXCELLENT opportunity for you to learn more about the work at home world and network with other women. Second, Market Mommy is proud to have designed the club's new banner :o)

All books will be available for purchase in The Work at Home Woman's Business Book shop and you can sign up for e-mail updates about discussions, etc. by contacting Holly or commenting on her post here. You can also copy and paste the button and share it with others :o)

The club's first book is, The Mommy Manifesto: How to Use Our Power to Think Big, Break Limitations, and Achieve Success by Kim Lavine.

Happy Friday and happy reading! Have a great weekend!

P.S. I have baby fever. In the past 12 hours two of my cousins have welcomed new babies. Right before Christmas two of my friends did and I have another cousin due to give birth the first week of February. I think next week I'll honor all of them with a baby post soon ;o)

Book Recommendation!

Like me, I'm sure most of you are always looking for new resources when it comes to running your business. And, like me, I think you'll be impressed by Jill Hart and Diana Ennen's new book, So You Want to be a Work-at-Home Mom: A Christian's Guide to Starting a Home-Based Business.

I was genuinely impressed when I picked up the book. It did a great job of going through the basics, from the very beginning and was very comprehensive! It included chapters on topics such as where to start, choosing the right business for you, setting up your business, client relations and much more.

I thought one of the nicest things, being a Christian woman myself, was that it included scripture passages and how they relate to being a work-at-home-mom. It was very insightful! I also enjoyed the many resources that the book provided. Depending on the chapter's topic, it listed various websites and other valuable resources.

Of course, I was very interested in the chapter covering marketing. Hart and Ennen did a great job of outlining the basics when it comes to marketing strategy. They also gave some great, cost effective tips for marketing your business.

The book also got technical, which was appreciated. It covered business insurance, billing, taxes, trademarks and more. All of the elements covered are critical to first-time business owners.

I highly recommned this book for any mom entrepreneur! It can be purchased on Amazon, for a mere $10.87, what a great bargain! The book would also make a great gift for any of your mom entrepreneur friends, or any aspiring business owners you many know!
