A Weekly Series by Teresa Morrow
Iâm Teresa Morrow, Founder of Key Business Partners, LLC and I work with authors and writers by managing their online promotion. As part of my job I read a lot of books (and I love to read anyway!). I am here to offer a weekly post about one book I am working with and one book I have put on my reading list. The books will cover topics such as social media (Facebook and Twitter), organization, career building, networking, writing and self development and inspiration.
The Customizable Style Guide for Coaches who Write by Linda Dessau
This week I would like to start off with a book I have read and worked with the author entitled Customizable Style Guide for Coaches who Write.
The coaching industry is increasing every day. The International Coach Federation has over 13,000 members in more than 90 countries. Coaches have discovered success by sharing their guidance through books and e-products, expanding from the traditional one-on-one or group coaching methods. And since coaching is a global industry, most coaches rely heavily on the Internet as a marketing tool. Professional, concise writing is crucial for success.
Whether they’re writing to earn passive revenue or to market to new or existing contacts, this book will help coaches to write without fear. No more false starts or procrastination, no more puzzling over why something just doesn’t look or sound right, and best of all, no more pouring their heart and soul into their writing, but failing to make that crucial connection with their readers or to get the results they hoped for.

Twitter Power
Now is time for me to showcase a book I have not read but it is on my reading list. This week my choice is Twitter Power by Joel Comm.
Do you know what Twitter is? You should–if you’re in the business of promoting your business. This is just what I say ABSOLUTELY! Social media is so important to all business owners who are looking to increase the marketing of their business. It is a great way to make incredible connections and joint partnerships with others.
Twitter Power shows you how to leverage the power of Twitter for instant business results–like reaching new markets and increasing sales.
In Twitter Power, Internet marketing and Web innovation expert Joel Comm shows businesses and marketers how to integrate Twitter into their existing marketing strategies to build a loyal following among Twitter members, expand awareness for their product or service, and even handle negative publicity due to angry or disappointed consumers.
The book also presents case studies of companies on the forefront of the Twitter movement, to help you develop your own social networking strategies. Twitter Power is the result of extensive testing and participation in the social networking community and is a must-have for any business that wants to keep up with the social media movement. Twitter Power features a foreword by Tony Robbins.
