Today's economy has been fluctuating so much that companies are whittling down their pools of local workers and outsourcing their services from abroad instead, which means that true job security is up to you. The best way to survive unemployment is by self-employment, and this book will teach you how to put up and operate your very own business right within the comfort of your own home. Everyone has the potential to create a self-sustaining business from their personal interests, hobbies, or skills. The most important factor, though, is how to handle the obstacles along the way, balance the financial sheets to prevent (Gasp!) bankruptcy, and consistently improve your business to attract clients and soar above the competition. The entrepreneurship road is long, but as long as you're equipped with the right know-how, you will be able to reap the rewards.
