Online Entrepreneur Shares Secrets to Success

Online, November 11, 2010 (Newswire.com) - The global recession has caused many people to lose their jobs or have their hours cut to unsustainable levels. As a result, many people have started seeking out alternative forms of income. Holly Harkness is one enterprising individual who has decided to use the challenges of the current economy to explore other income opportunities.

"I've always wanted to find a way out of the rat race," said Harkness. "This turned out to be the push I needed to do so."

Harkness left her traditional nine-to-five job when they began cutting her wages back to an unreasonable degree. She had long been interested in entrepreneurship, but it was the recession which finally pushed her to pursue her dream. Now, she works from home only a few hours each week, yet finds more satisfaction and success than she ever did before at her old job.

"It's still work, but it's work I enjoy doing," said Harkness, "and the rewards are so much greater. There's something special about reaping the rewards of something you built on your own."

Now that she is doing business for herself successfully, Harkness wants to share her methods of success with as many people as possible. To that end, she has set up a website at hollyharkness.com where she shares more about her story and her methods of success. From there, interested people can contact her to learn how to set up their own online businesses.

"I really want to share my success," said Harkness. "Helping others achieve the same kind of professional growth I have experienced is a top priority for me."
