So, here’s my confession — I don’t think I completely understand Linked-In. Read more »

I went to a bookstore and asked the saleswoman, “Where’s the self-help section?” She answered, “If I tell you, it will defeat the purpose.”

 

 

On that note did you know that According to an article from Press Release newswire, it is a $9.6 Billion industry in the US alone, compared to total book sales of somewhere between $26 and $34 billion in the US.  The discrepancy is due to a growing self-publishing community, whose revenues don’t get included in standard industry reports.
