Reader comments:

"You are having a positive influence on folks all over the country... even contemplating trying to do some marketing is a big step forward. I was pretty willing to accept that our business was done... period... but you have made a difference in how I interact with clients..."

In case anyone is wondering, I highly recommend her materials and to hear her speak if possible. She's one of the few people who can both speak and write in an interesting manner. (you know... some people write well, but when you hear them talk, it is either like fingernails on chalkboard or you lose consciousness from their droning...) Ellie is engaging in person *and* in print! :D

She offers easy to understand marketing advice for the small farmer or small business owner. She offers good info about goats, etc. Many of us are indeed trying to make a living "beyond the sidewalk" and any of us who have anything to sell (eggs, soap, goat milk, veggies, whatever) *has* to do some marketing to have sales. She also has experience making soaps, etc... a very real person who has lots and lots in common with us. She also offers a for real money back guarantee on her materials.
