It means that yes it is possible to start a business from scratch, manage that business from home, and in doing so, succeed in becoming the self supporting and productive person you desire to be. It isn't easy and educating yourself by means of ample research is perhaps the most important step. This book contains much of the information you'll need, while supplying motivation to help you get started.

Her book breaks down the girth of information associated with starting a business and explains it in a step-by-step manner that makes for both a refreshing read, and a gold-mine of inspirational wisdom and information.

Her words leap to life, the literature is both written and laid out very well. There are no gimmicks and the material is very true, which helps it stand apart from the scam-laden, web-based, get rich quick, work at home "opportunities". If you are thinking about starting, or perhaps have already started a business, home based or otherwise, then I would highly recommend this book. It can help you as it has helped others. But by all means, do some further research if you like. There are testimonials everywhere that support its message, and proclaim its usefulness. Hats off to Carrie Wilkerson, her message is there to help, all you have to do is check it out.
