No matter where I am asked to speak and/or train, I am usually asked one or both of the following questions.
What technology, equipment, and tools do you recommend?
What books do you recommend for personal growth, building a business, etc.?
I've put both lists on my Amazon Storefront for easy access and pricing comparisons. I hope this helps and is beneficial to you in your effort to grow and bring more value to the world.
