  • The way I adapted my coaching modules into 6 steps to fit the format of a book with a beginning, a middle and an end
  • Why I went for the self-publishing route and the benefits of using the services of a designer and a copywriter
  • The positive impact on my own thinking as a marketing strategy coach and the overall experience for my customers
  • My tips to develop your own marketing strategy which needs to tap into a more empathetic form of marketing and a deeper understanding of your clients
