Greetings, I’m Richard Henderson, Publisher of Home Business Magazine.
I appreciate your feedback on our blog postings.
I have been publishing Home Business Magazine (HBM) since 1994. Like most full time home-based entrepreneurs, I worked HBM part-time the first couple of years while I worked in a corporate cubicle. When it became profitable enough, then I transitioned to full-time.
Background of Richard Henderson
Like the home-based business sector that HBM covers, I come to the home-based world with a wide and varied background. I have a Bachelors Degree in Civil Engineering, a civil engineering license. In addition, I Master’s Degree in Business Administration. I am also a Captain in the U.S. Navy Reserves in the branch of Surface Warfare, and I previously also served in the Civil Engineers Corps. My military service took around most of the world, and I currently work in emergency preparedness for the State of Minnesota.
Home Business Advantages
One of the big advantages of being a home-based entrepreneur is improved quality of family. My wife, five children and I live in a town south of the Minneapolis/St. Paul metro area. Operating a home business allowed us to choose this place to live. It has also allowed me to maximize the time I spend with my kids as they have grown up. Even just seeing them off to school in the morning makes running a home business worthwhile.
My biggest area of interest in publishing is with digital media and internet media. With knowledge learned the hard way by trial and error, I am probably one of the most knowledgeable persons in the industry on such digital circulation areas as the iPad, iPhone, Nook Kindle, digital editions and in Internet marketing. It is where the publishing world is going, and I am trying to stay out ahead of it. Every business owner has their daily battle for survival, and this one is mine.
Thanks for reading my blog. If you have something you would like me to talk about, please email me at publisher@homebusinessmag.com or post a comment to my blog.
Thank you for reading!
