New Book, Handwrite for Cash, Provides Help to Small and Home-Based Businesses
Handwrite for Cash by Ray Hrach Offers an Insider's Perspective into the Handwritten Direct-Mail Business.
Online, September 17, 2010 (Newswire.com) - Based on personal experience, Handwrite for Cash: Firsthand Advice from Write On Results, by Ray Hrach, teaches people how to overcome the obstacles that kill most small and home-based businesses. The book was released by Kairos Venture Group, Publishing Series, and is available online at http://www.writeonresults.com/?page_id=73 and Amazon.com.
According to the U.S. Small Business Administration, only about half of the new businesses started in the U.S. each year are still in operation five years later. Many small businesses fail because the managers simply aren't familiar with the industry in which they are competing. "I wrote Handwrite for Cash to solve this problem for folks who want to start a handwritten mail business," explained Hrach. "It's the only source of firsthand advice about the industry and is therefore invaluable for anyone considering handwritten mail as a small or home-based business."
Handwrite for Cash contains chapters on getting started; on marketing; on operations; and on finance. The book also summarizes Write On Results' proprietary research for industry size, turn time, and pricing. It's accompanied by the Handwrite for Cash Tools and Resources CD, which includes: a calculator that determines the time required to complete a job of any size and specification, a start-up expense calculator, a cash flow calculator, web links to all of the resources cited in the book, and more. It also comes with the Handwrite for Cash Quick Start Guide: 10.5 Steps to New Business Success.
"Loved the book. It's great! It is concise, clear and dense with information. I know that it will be extremely helpful to people in small businesses in general, as well as the specific direct mail, handwriting industry." -Sigrid Macdonald, Author and Editor
