"New Book Offers Encouraging Words and Dose of Reality to Would-Be Home-Based Entrepreneurs "

Janet Drez, founder and chairwoman of the Home-Based Business Council, State President of the Entrepreneurial Mother's Association and herself a 13-year veteran home-based business owner, knows that there is a plethora of information available for home-based and small businesses. Books, tapes, websites, counselors, and seminars abound. In fact, Drez uses those resources every day in her home-based business consulting company, A Perfect Solution in Chandler, Arizona.

So, knowing all that and being rejected by traditional publishers, why would she spend close to two years writing a book that just adds to the information overload?

AI took a serious look at whether or not I had anything new to say," Drez remarked, AI concluded that although the basic business start-up information may be the same, I do have a unique perspective and experience that may be just what some women need to get started and succeed in their own business. My goal is to provide both the encouragement and excitement a new entrepreneur needs to get started, tempered with a 'feet on the ground' look at what it really takes to make a business successful . . . and do it all from a Christian perspective," she added.

Drez's book, Putting The Pieces Together: A Christian Woman's Guide to a Successful Home-Based Business, is a clearly written, thoughtful and practical guide to start and grow a successful home-based business. Drez openly and enthusiastically shares her how-to's from years of experience. Along with the practical topics of business options, licenses, pricing and marketing, Drez includes an insightful chapter on maintaining balance and priorities, fill-in-the-blank exercises, thought-provoking questions, prayer reminders, Bible verses and over a dozen real-life "success stories" from other women who have "been there."

The book is available through Amazon.com, several Christian bookstores, and Drez=s own website at www.aperfectsolution.com, or by calling the author at 480-899-3090. Cost is $19.95 (plus tax and shipping).
