NEW For Entrepreneurs, Solopreneurs and Small Business Owners Copy Clinic at Winds of Change

WRITING FOR A NEW ERA WILL YOUR BUSINESS COPY ATTRACT CUSTOMERS IN 2009?

Bring your copy (flyer, brochure, web copy, ad) for a complementary review with Copy Coach, Author and Business Development expert Gail Glanville, owner of Change Bistro where smart women bring their dreams to life.

Fee: $27
