WPPI Master Class Review

Lanae Rivers-Woods and Katarina Garner's WPPI Master Class, Work vs. Profitability: Stop the Bleeding, wrapped up a couple of days ago to much acclaim from the attendees. Sold out weeks in advance, the Master Class inspired early-rising hopefuls, who patiently lined up at 7:00 am, waiting to fill any last minute no-show spots.

After the two hour presentation, which was peppered with thoughtful listener questions and input, Lanae and Katarina met with attendees in the hallway, offering followup tips and scheduling meetings for later that afternoon. Despite running overtime by 20 minutes, the Class remained full until the end - a true testament Lanae and Katarina's engaging and informative presentation style.

For anyone who attended the WPPI Master Class, please let us know what you thought in the comment field below. We would love to hear from you!

Burk and Burke Achieve Literary Success

In late January, Power of Basics clients Katherine Burk and Gloria Burke published their first book, Finding Mr. Ness, through La Familia Publishing. Less than two short months later, they’ve already achieved incredible success! 

A children’s book that apparently appeals to all ages, Finding Mr. Ness has already garnered 5 out of 5 stars from Amazon.com’s customer reviews.

According to Lisa and the Trevors, you should:


“Read this story!! Finding Mr. Ness transported me back to my childhood adventures. I read it myself for the joy of entering the magical Tilania. Then I read it with my son for a whole new experience in imagination. This book is a great gift for a spectrum of ages. I have shared the excitement of the book with my 11 year old nephew and my 6 year old god daughter and my husband.” (Customer review, www.amazon.com, March 3, 2010)


Sales of the book have surpassed all goals to date, and we expect the good news to continue.

Congratulations, Katherine and Gloria!
