Great read about mindset and attraction. It was encouraging and inspiring to read about the ‘six-figure’ women she interviewed. If Six-Figures is one of your goals, you would find this an interesting read.
A lot of what I teach in my coaching programs mirrors Michael Port’s system. This is a great read with lots of great resources & exercises. I hope you enjoy it as much as I did.
The definitive ‘how to’ book for anyone looking to start or grow a small or home-based Virtual Assistance practice; from deciding whether or not you have what it takes, to building a successful and ethical business. Available in soft-cover and eBook versions. A Companion Workbook is available, too.
Wonderful detail and outline to organizing a profitable speaking business. Helps me with speakers I support, too.
