P.S.
Whilst I am a lawyer and should, in theory, have flawless attention to detail… I am, first and foremost, a salesman. Persuasion? Excellent.
Proofreading? Let’s just say I rely heavily on my ability to persuade to gloss over my lack of attention to detail.
If you spot any typos, grammar glitches, plot holes or formatting fumbles in this book, you have my full permission to gloat—then email courtney@thesell.life to claim your reward.
