The International Association of Home Business Entrepreneurs: A Review
Scary as it may be, starting a home business can be quite profitable and allow more time to do those things you like, such as spending time with family. However, spending a significant amount of money without good business guidance doesn’t make good business sense, even if you have previous business experience.
In today’s world where information changes hands so quickly, it is difficult to keep abreast of material specific to the home-based entrepreneur. That’s where The International Association of Home Business Entrepreneurs (IAHBE) becomes helpful. Although my first impression of their website is that it is a bit plain and lacking in muscle, a closer examination reveals an organization that has lots of content helpful to this niche.
At the time of this writing, monthly membership is $32.95. This will get you immediate access to their website, which contains a small library of books, including “New to Home Business? Start HERE!” and “Tools of the Trade.” There is also an internationally focused area of the website pertaining to Canada, United Kingdom, and Australia/New Zealand.
In addition to the above, there is also a collection of interesting Video Tutorials, Webcasts, and Seminars. Titles you will see include “Free: The Future of a Radical Price,” and “Downshifting in a Slowing Economy.” These are just a few of the plethora of learning that’s available with membership to the IAHBE.
Software downloads are available from the IAHBE website, and there are monthly picks of software designed for the home-based entrepreneur. Since you will be too busy running your business, it will be nice that someone is out there evaluating software for you!
You will also receive subscriptions to Entrepreneur and Wired magazines, which would be about thirty dollars yearly alone. These two magazines not only help you with your business, but also keep you on top of hot topics of interest.
Last, there is someone available four hours daily, Monday through Thursday for questions about IAHBE. This is somewhat limited, but does help keep cost of membership down. Most of your needs are web-based anyway, so don’t let this one item push you away.
If, after viewing all materials mailed to you and via the internet you are not satisfied, TripleClicks.com will refund your money within thirty days of initial purchase. Since the website is somewhat limited before purchase, this will be helpful for the person who is having difficulty deciding. This way, all your materials can be viewed without risk. It is also important to note that the $32.95 is not a one-time cost; this is a monthly membership fee. Consider this before you purchase and before your thirty day limit expires.
In conclusion, the IAHBE program is a comprehensive, yet focused, program for the person who is considering a home based business, or has already begun but needs help. The great majority of people who have used their services recommend IAHBE. Their website is http://www.iahbe.com for more information.
