In their book they point the way to addressing the needs of job seekers, and those starting or operating their own businesses, offering: (1) Innovative programming ideas; (2) Easy to translate suggestions into day-to-day operations; and (3) Suggestions to helping clients become business literate on the web, on paper, and out in the world of work.
