101 Tips is a must-have desk reference for professionals who are contemplating or just entering the telecommuting world. It is exceptionally well-organized with cross-references, appendices, checklists, and a writing style that makes it very easy to find what you need and want. The author effectively delivers not only the mechanics for efficient telecommuting but also, and perhaps more importantly, addresses the relationship dimensions within the family unit and co-workers. The book is loaded with inserts (or "Tip2"s). The telecommuter who diligently implements all or most of these Tip2s will find new levels of personal efficiency and insights into relationships that can relieve many anxious moments.The resource guide in the appendix was an unexpected bonus. This book is also a great resource for the eager, new member of the workforce who wants to do well and have a balanced life.

This book is a real gem!, and one with many hidden facets. I learned many new tips and techniques about telecommuting and how to think about it, even though it is something that I've done off and on over the last 6 years. The book really shines in the area of lifestyle management---it really has a lot of worthwhile things to say about creating a life that will work for you. A life that integrates work into the bigger picture with all of the different priorities/challenges that stare all of us in the face every day. This book really tells you both how to work, and how to make your work work for you! The format is very accessible(I read some of the tips while waiting for meetings) and bitesized. The tip2 feature is a really cool way to apply the ideas and learnings. I'm recommending the book to all my friends who are telecommuting--or considering it. Fun, practical and impactful---you'll like it!

If you've always wanted to start a home-based business but just didn't know how to begin, this book is very helpful in letting you know things you never even knew you'd have to consider. It's full of information about the little things that could turn out to be big if were weren't aware of them.

Maxwell Sroge has some great information for product information and working with small suppliers. The Foreward by Lillian Vernon Katz is sweet and Lillian Vernon's catalog is frequently used as an example in the book. There are 101 different areas, which are often contributed by industry experts. "101 Tips" is well designed, easy to read. There is no index but the table of contents and the 101 Tip style makes finding information easy. When I read, "Let's assume a house active file of 1,000,000 customer names ..." I knew that he was thinking way past what we would ever do. I don't think that if I had a customer database of 1 million, that I would be reading a book--I would be hiring a consultant.
