I never imagined being an author or having a book published, but now I have four with four more in the works!  Publishing a book is a great way to get your message out and make it available to others.

Launching Your Dreams: Stop Day Dreaming and Live Your Vision

Now in it's 3rd printing, Launching Your Dreams has grown into a very usable guide for taking that wild idea and making it happen.

The book traces Donna's cross country bike ride and outlines a process for making wild ideas happen instead of just day dreaming.

In the second edition, a business log was added.

The third edition adds more resources and information for creating a business and making it succeed.

Employee Coaching For Business Success

This guide helps managers transition their workplace into a coaching focus rather than a top down micro-management structure.  Donna guides you in using the performance appraisal as a tool for increasing employee success and ultimately the organization's success.

Now in its second edition printing, Employee Coaching provides valuable resources for managers, business owners and supervisors.

It is an easy read with real world examples that managers can relate to.

Many managers didn't train to supervise employees, it just happened, as a part of the organization's promotion structure or as a business owner.

Learning to be an effective manager can be challenging. Creating a positive work environment that also has a structure and expectations that are clearly defined, helps organizations to grow.

Yes! Marketing Works!

Donna's most recent book, takes years of training in the area of marketing and online marketing for small businesses and puts it into a concise, readable book.

Yes! Marketing Works! is based on the frustration of so many small business owners, that feel that they are throwing money after money and not getting the results that they want and need.

Donna provides a guide for small business owners and leaders to become marketing masters and love marketing because it is working in their business.  Marketing should be a system that is predictable, not a hope and a dime.
