This book was informative for basic info, like direct selling companies and marketing.It lacked more updated info for websites and selling directly on the internet which is so important in this day. It's over 5 yrs old.

I like the fact that this book covers every aspect of the scrapbooking business. Only one chapter applied to what I am interested in doing, but the rest of the book was infomative and helped me to know for sure the area of business I wanted to jump into. Great resources and lots of up to date info such as websites, government agencies to contact and other helpful books as well as the steps to follow to actually get your business up and running.
