| As of May 1, 2003, AAHBB ceased to exist as a non-profit membership
organization. Beverley Williams will still be involved with home-based
advocacy, but in different roles.
The good news is that she will be working closely with her friend, Jim
Blasingame, The Small Business Advocate, to continue and expand the support
of your efforts as a home-based business owner. You are encouraged to
join Beverley as a member of Jim’s community.
As you may know, Jim is the award-winning host of The Small Business
Advocate Show, the only nationally syndicated, weekday radio/Internet
talk show that’s dedicated to small business, including home-based.
Beverley’s been associated with Jim since 1997 as his lead home-based
business expert in his community of experts, called the Brain Trust. They’ve
conducted hundreds of interviews about home-based issues, many of which
are in his audio archives. All you have to do to join Jim’s community
is partake of the free content here, including Jim’s free weekly
ezine, the Small Business Advocate NEWSLETTER.
AAHBB has been many things since it’s inception in 1991 as a local
networking group for home-based businesses in the Washington, DC metropolitan
area. It became a national membership organization in 1994 and a wholly
web-based membership organization in 2000 with more than 13,000 people
signing up to take advantage of the many pieces of information and the
benefit programs that were offered on the site.
Our purpose has always been to support, educate and promote home-based
businesses. We will continue to do so as long as there is a need. The
AAHBB Board of Directors feel confident that becoming an information center
for home-based businesses through Jim’s efforts, resources, and
community will continue to fulfill that mission.
You will still find information specific to home-based businesses on
these pages, including the T.C.B. Tip sheets, Zoning Resources, Getting
Started, Home-Based Business Week, and more. In addition, you can now
access information valued by all small business owners. Spend a few minutes
browsing through all the outstanding resources available on this site..
We know you’ll agree this is a great move for all home-based businesses. |
