Tips, strategies, insider secrets, specific examples, and important resources are things you should add to every story, whether it be yours or others.

And, they might even buy some for themselves to give away to colleagues and special clients.

Feature 4 – Be proactive in asking for interviews and endorsements, and selecting a great person to write the Foreword of your book.
