There’s No Better Compliment Than This For An Author of a Dummies Guide!
We’ve had many folks send us photos of Corporate Blogging for Dummies, but I’m not sure we’ll get a better one than this! Valerie Strohl is a consultant and national public speaker who works with companies to improve their relationships with those with disabilities. We met when I led a regional workshop for the National Speaker’s Association.
Valerie has gone through the book and added notes for herself, her business, and even her husband’s business. She stopped by the office this morning, and I asked if I could take a photo of the book—it’s amazing!
It’s so exhilarating to see my book like this! Signing autographs is pretty fun, but seeing the book like this and knowing that we can make a huge difference in Valerie’s strategy to help her get her blog and business off the ground is beyond words.
