 Very Useful Book June 9, 2008
Abigail T.
How to Make and Sell Your Art, Music, Photographs, and Handmade Crafts was a very useful book. I would rate it a four. The book is very encouraging and makes you feel as though your hobby has the potential to be a "cash machine". Although, there were times while reading the book that I felt that the book was a bit too elementary. That it was overly simplified. The extras in the appendixes are very helpful and informative. They will be a useful reference for anyone who owns the book. br /
 Comprehensive and Up-to-Date June 4, 2008
Cynthia J. Nichols
If you are looking for a book that takes you step by step through every aspect of setting up your online business, look no further. I thought this book would be a good resource to help me sell my photographs, but it is far more comprehensive than I had any idea. Every possible aspect is covered, from purchasing the right equipment through finding a web hosting service and right on into Internet marketing. Lots of links are provided, which is quite helpful. I can't say I tried them all, but every single one I tried worked, and all contained useful information. br / br /I am not new to the Internet, but if I were, I think this is the only book I would ever need. As it happens, I have a couple of web sites and an eBay store, but it took reading this book for me to learn why my sales have not done as well as they might have. I have learned some new marketing techniques that I am even now putting into place. There is an absolute treasure trove of information in this book for anyone looking to start out or to improve an Internet presence. I was very impressed and would recommend it to everyone. br /
