105: How To Become An Author – Kalynn Amadio

This is my story of how to become an author. You have heard me speak about the fact that I wrote a book that has not been published yet, mostly because I did the process half-ass backwards.

Having a marketing calendar 2015 saves you from making a common small business marketing mistake…or what I like to call…spaghetti marketing. The throw it at the wall and see if it sticks approach to small business marketing is a real killer. And here’s why.
