Testimonial? Or Product Review?
Posted 11-10-2008 at 02:29 PM by Peggy Baron
This is one of the testimonials I got for IM Focused, but it reads more like a product review. I am impressed with this guy!
Wow, for a testimonial, Bruce really over-delivered!

I've been looking for information about getting focused for a while now. I knew I needed to do it, wanted to do it, but I didn't know HOW to do it. At last, I found an author who knows exactly what I needed. Peggy Baron wrote "IM Focused" because newbies like me in the Warrior Forum kept asking questions that weren't getting answered. I love how practical she is, and her emphasis on "learning by doing" and just getting started. So many experts just tell you to follow a plan or not to waste time, but leave out how to actually make it work.
Peggy gives you steps. The book is full of examples and she tells you how to carry your projects out. As if that's not enough, she has a sense of humor too that kept me light-hearted and down to earth while I realized that now I have no more excuses!
She shows you how to create a "Focused Action Sheet", the core of the whole process, in enough detail that I can now do it myself from just one reading. One thing that really blew my mind was the series of completed Focused Action Sheets for several kinds of products or services including ebooks and flipping Squidoo lenses. Those are going to come in handy for me!
If there was anything I wished was included, it would be more of her thoughts while "learning by doing". That's a difficult point for me, at least. But I got so much from what WAS included that it's definitely worth the price. It helps you start a business, after all! The whole system is so logical and simple, I kept asking myself why didn't I think of this? But lucky for the rest of us, she did.
I would recommend this book to anyone who's committed to making it happen for themselves, but stuck because they don't know what to do day to day. Beyond this, all I can say is "Thanks, Peggy!"
