The new edition of the definitive Mom-tested guide for aspiring product entrepreneurs – packed with important new resources

Since its publication in 2005, thousands of moms successfully followed entrepreneur Tamara Monosoff's acclaimed advice in THE MOM INVENTOR’S HANDBOOK to entrepreneurial success.

Mompreneur-tested over nearly ten years, THE MOM INVENTOR’S HANDBOOK, SECOND EDITION includes real-life stories from more than 50 women (and men too!) who created a product solution and effectively took it to market. They offer up personal resources and true insider tips on how others can do the same. The book is also interactive, including QR codes where readers can scan to view digital videos that bring the stories to life.

This revised and expanded edition offers entrepreneurs updated information on product research and patent searches, crowdfunding, microloans, angel investors, in-depth coverage of video marketing, and how to navigate alternative sales channels like Groupon and LivingSocial, and more.

"Nearly every aspect of the process of developing and launching a new product has changed in unimaginable ways since my first book in 2005," says Monosoff. "From the boom of social media to new options in funding and creative ways to distribute products, it's truly a whole new world for entrepreneurs. I'm thrilled to update readers on the smart tools - and incredible new resources - to help them succeed today."
