Goshen, MA (PRWEB) April 22, 2008 -- With National Small Business Week, April 21-25, highlighting small business in the US, a new YouTube video offers a vivid look at today's technology-assisted business lifestyle in rural America (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=w-HgjPdfGiE ). Author and marketing consultant Marcia Yudkin, based in Goshen, Massachusetts (population 920), portrays the glories of living and working in a setting reminiscent of Henry David Thoreau's "Walden."
"Contrary to the view of some of small-town America as a constricted, dying, bitter environment, I wanted to show that it can represent freedom and happiness," says Yudkin, author of 6 Steps to Free Publicity and 10 other books. "Even though our town has been ignored by the high-speed cable and DSL networks, I can maintain a professional practice working with clients from as far away as Australia, Brazil, the Marshall Islands or Sweden - plus immerse myself in the four seasons right outside my door."
In Yudkin's YouTube video (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=w-HgjPdfGiE ), she shows the visitor the satellite dish she uses to connect to the Internet, the home office in which she writes and consults, trails where she hikes or snowshoes, the lake where she swims in summer and the road she lives on, which doesn't get more than one or two cars an hour. The narration makes the case for her lifestyle as a satisfying alternative to McMansions and Porsches.
Marcia Yudkin holds an Ivy League Ph.D. in the humanities and has been successfully self-employed since 1982. She has had a syndicated column on marketing, delivered commentaries on National Public Radio and published a book that was offered by the Book of the Month Club. In her spare time, she serves as Library Director of the one-room library in Goshen, Massachusetts.
Her YouTube video lasts 2½ minutes and can be viewed for free at http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=w-HgjPdfGiE .
