After 12 years of the conventional 9-to-5 grind — commuting, missing school plays, and watching his children grow up from a distance — Garry Bryant decided enough was enough.
He convinced his executives that a home office could be just as effective, if not more productive. Five years later, he wished someone had given him a guide like this one at the start.
This book is that guide. Built from hard-won experience, steep learning curves, and a genuine desire to help others hit the ground running — whether you're working remotely for a company or building your own business from home.
