As more people seek to start their own business in the face of corporate layoffs, one business prospect offers considerable potential with no prior experience required: Bail bonds. Fueled by popular television shows, interest in the bail industry continues to rise. Until now, the industry lacked a comprehensive guide for new bail agents. Sean M. Cook, a 12-year bail industry veteran, has provided the answer: Bail Bonds 101: The Comprehensive Guide to Owning and Operating a Successful Bail Bond Company (expected release February 8, 2005, CA: Bail Out Publishing, ISBN: 0-9764958-0-5, $24.95).
Bail Bonds 101 is a comprehensive, step-by-step guide for new bail agents that explains how to become licensed, set up a new business, advertise effectively, network with attorneys, sign up with a surety company, work with bounty hunters, assess risk confidently, and run a profitable bail agency. The book covers the ins and outs of the bail industry and follows a bail agent's typical day, walking readers through the bail bond process from jail booking to exoneration. A complete self-starter's guide, Bail Bonds 101 shows prospective agents how to grow a successful bail bond business and avoid the pitfalls and high-risk liabilities that sink many new bail agencies within their first year. The book has received endorsements from several bail and surety companies.Cook has been in the bail bond business for over 12 years and is considered a bail bond expert among industry professionals. Starting his career with one of the largest bail companies in California, he soon ventured on to open his own bail agency, which he has operated for the past decade.
Since then, he has acquired another agency and has the largest bail online presence with his website http://www.Bail.com. He receives more than 15 online requests daily for advice on starting a bail bond company. A member of Professional Bail Agents of the United States, Cook will attend the organization's annual conference February 20-24 in Las Vegas, Nevada.
