I loved having access to all the critical elements of book marketing in one place. It was very helpful in figuring out where I am "ready" and where I have gaps.
Gena Cox
It was great to get a comprehensive overview of the book marketing process. I appreciated the open environment and the generous sharing of knowledge and perspective.
Ann VanEron
Author of "Oasis Mindsets: Leading with an Open Mindset to Maximize Potential"
Becky and the team were a wealth of knowledge and I loved the times she shared from her own experiences with clients and now with the launch of Reach. Having the support in the small group to make sure everyone got time to share their own examples and questions was the most valuable part for me as I love getting real-time feedback and applying what I learn straight away.
Ali Greene
The workshop provided a lot of information that I can use immediately to promote my current book. I got great ideas from the instructors as well as the participants.
Janet Ply
It was great to pick the brains of Becky's team with all their experience. And the varied group, with people ranging from published authors to just starting on their first book, provided a surprising number of insights also.

Becky's presentation was comprehensive yet digestible. The combination of presentation, group discussion, and breakouts was a nice balance of learning from the experts and learning from one another.
