 | Skeptic Turned Fan Jun 9, 2010 |
I agreed to review this book months ago! And why did it take months to post? Because you can't just read it, you have to do it! Each chapter ends with assignments that take a lot of mental processing power, and each chapter is filled with links and resources so it takes a lot of research power.
I started the book completely skeptical. The author displays her credentials and experience and I raised my eyebrows. Then I suddenly remembered where I'd seen that name before--Donna Partow. She's the author of "Becoming a Vessel God Can Use," a book that impacted myself and my best friends studying it together in college. This was the same woman?!? Okay, she had my attention and I kept reading...
This is not a book that is easy to put into practice. Making money from home will involve research, creativity, planning, and marketing. She tells you how to go about starting each process but after that it's all up to you, baby.
So, it took me 3 months to finish and I have a notepad of ideas and projects and research to follow up on. And, to be honest, I need to read it again. You won't use everything in the book but even starting small is sure to reap some rewards. Just have a highlighter, a notebook, and the internet by your side before you dare to pick this book up. I give it 5 book lights, and apologies to Tyndale House Publishers for taking so long to post this review after you graciously provided this complimentary copy. | | |  | A Good Rewource For Business and Ministry Apr 23, 2010 |
"Thank you" to Donna Partow and her publisher for sending me a copy of "Making Money From Home" to review for them. I have always been grateful for this generosity, and I am trying to improve at being consistent in taking the time to thank these wonderfully giving individuals in a public forum. I really appreciate your time, effort and expense in making a reviewer copy available to me.
Donna Partow's "Making Money From Home" is a valuable resource for anyone who is looking to start a home-based business, add dimension to an existing business or even establish a presence in cyberspace. I found several bits of information to have value to me personally as a blogger. This resource can be used to enhance your established online persona or actually assist you with planning and starting a business that will make you some form of income.
There is information on legal issues that will whet your whistle to learn more about the laws where you are located so that you can protect your business. There are also chapters on marketing and balancing family life with a home-based business, which can be particularly challenging when your workplace is where you live. Each chapter ends with a list of questions designed to provoke thought about your business and assist with its planning and execution. I can't wait to pass this book to my husband to see what kinds of ideas he can come up with for putting it to even more use. | | |  | Making Money from Home Apr 22, 2010 |
When I saw the opportunity from Tyndale to review Making Money from Home, I was super excited! Although I have a full-time job that for the most part, I love, I'd also love to be able to work from home full-time. I already do some work from home, obviously because of the product reviews I do, but I can only do so much when working a regular full-time job. Anyway, I jumped on the opportunity to review this book.
I do have to say that I'm pretty disappointed with the book though. It does have some good information in it, especially since it covers a lot of information for online businesses. However, I was very disappointed with the fact that the book started off with a "Me, Me, Me, I, I, I" feel to it. In other words, it was all about what she's done over the years with regards to making money from home and what her kids have done. To me, that's a huge turn off. Boasting about yourself and your achievements doesn't do anything for me. It's almost like those sales people that say, "I helped XYZ Company save over $100,000,000 while working for them." Annoying!
I do like that she gives websites to visit for additional information in certain areas and how to identify the work at home scams that are all over the place. I like that she also talks about affiliate sites for gaining money on your own website. Most of the sites I already know about, but there are a couple that I will be checking out. She also talks about how you can make money from these types of sites, with regards to how they pay you (by click, by page load, etc). Another great topic she discusses is social networking and how to bring them into your business.

Reviewed by Shawn Ann from Shawn Ann's World. | | |  | Fantastic Resource Apr 15, 2010 |
Have you ever wanted to work from home? And be successful at it? Successful author, entrepreneur and ministry leader Donna Partow has been doing so very well for over 20 years. Her latest book, Making Money from Home, is filled with fantastic advice, tips, suggestions and plain old common sense. It covers topics such as: Getting Started, Time Management, Money Management, Priorities, Options, Marketing, Business Basics, Sales, Social Networking and (most importantly) Family Time.
The current economic crisis our Nation is in, has shown us (if we didn't already know) there is no job security and we are responsible for our own financial well-being. People are starting out every day, and succeeding in, operating a business of their own. There is a ton of information out there on how to, but what is really accurate. It is imperative to find a trusted source and build from there. With Making Money from Home, we find that it is possible to have a profitable business of our own, without being all alone. It is a wonderful resource that will benefit both new entrepreneurs and those who would like to take their business to the next level.

Let's face it, times are tough. Who can't use a little extra money to help make ends meet? Making Money from Home by Donna Partow is the breath of fresh air I'd been looking for. It revived my Entrepreneurial spirit that had been lying dormant for several years.
Entrepreneurs have been around since before America became a country, but that coupled with a faith in Christ was the life blood that made this country great. Donna refreshes the idea with all the new technology that makes marketing so much easier: e-Bay, Pay Pal, direct and indirect marketing. She covers the fundamentals of each facet of running your own successful business with web addresses for additional help. From carving out space for your home office to paying taxes, Donna's book can take you from idea to working business in clear easy to follow steps.
Tips are sprinkled liberally through out the book. Donna rounds out each chapter with questions to ask yourself and an assignment. The questions will get you thinking about your business and sharpen your focus. There are assignments that will can be as easy as setting a date to open a PayPal account or coming up with names for your business to checking into zoning laws for your home based business.
Donna also touches on multiple streams of income, an idea that runs counter to the mainstream mentality of one job for life or working for a large corporation. Donna has been on this track, running her own businesses,for twenty years. In order to survive that long, she must be doing something right. I have read quite a few aritcles and books on this subject, and this is definitely one of the best. Want to start enjoying the freedom that made this country great? Grab this book and you'll have everything it takes to launch your new business.
