Quotes:
- “Just start writing. If you have a message that will resonate, you will see that following grow authentically. (27:55 | Amy Shoenthal)
- “That's my marketing strategy. Just asking everyone I know if I could be on their podcast, asking people I know to share the information with their friends, to preorder the book, to just kind of get the word out. Luckily I have spent years building my network because I think of my writing and I do a lot of speaking engagements and I moderate a lot of panels and I've done a few keynotes. Since I got the book deal and finished the book, I've just been talking about it endlessly.” (29:28 | Amy Shoenthal)
