I'm currently working on a new book, The Kindness Experiment, which I'm crowd-funding.

I'm accepting up to 2,000 orders of $10 each from early buyers. Will you be one?

Place your advance order now and save $5 to $15 over the post-publication price... and support my work.

You should buy a copy if only to find out if you're one of the naughty or nice people in Toronto, St. Catharines, Alexandria, Lake City, Girard, Erie, or on online forums I'm writing about. You just never know.

And never-before-seen photos will be included. Read an excerpt from the book.

SPECIFIC SERVICES....

Restorative Justice I arrange repayment, compensation or restitution of your property and assets (losses of at least $5,000)... without bullying, insults or harassment.

The Undercover Client I tell you what your patients, clients, tenants, guests won't. Physicians, lawyers, dentists, chiropractors, veterinarians, and realtors retain me.

Crowd Funding I'll teach you ways to fund your book publishing or film project that work.
Read my reports... or I can tutor you.

Advice Empire Building I show you how to attract paying assignments and contracts to you: consulting, writing, speaking, hosting, spokesperson, syndication, etc.

Speaking Contracts My agency continues to "up" the fees of speakers and increase their level of prestige.

Ghostwriting I've been a professional/paid journalist since 1979, writing/editing news releases, brochures, articles, booklets, books, speeches, proposals, contracts, websites, and columns for clients.

Voice-Work I've been a radio host and co-host, TV host, voice-over talent on radio and on TV commercials and business videos. I've been the voice of telephone company operators and cemeteries. Audio books and podcasts are next.

Seminar Creator: Andrea Reynolds
Andrea Reynolds has been polishing, positioning, and promoting independent consultants, professionals, how-to authors, and other knowledge-sharers since 1977.
