At least now I know I am not alone when no matter what I do that I cannot please everybody.All the books you have authored I have looked over and they all seem very informative and relevant. There are several new concepts that I have not seen before as well as many that I have seen but need to see over and over again anyway. Thank you for providing all your information."Glenn Finke karatedo@warwick.net Traditional Karate-Do Center PO Box 1210 Warwick, NY 10990-8210 845-988-9223 845-988-9933 ----------------------- Chris Rappold of Personal Best Karate (3) locations, 250 East Main Street, Norton, MA "Your genius is the ability to see things from a perspective that virtually no one else does. Your combination of an MBA and 20 years pioneering ideas for professional martial arts instructors is a valuable treasure for school owners such as myself. School owners have a choice of either spending 20 years in the process or trial and error coming up with new ideas, all the while wasting precious time and energy, plus thousands of dollars or they can get the "Cliff Notes" to success which are your "EVERYTHING I WISH I KNEW WHEN I WAS 22" section of Extraordinary Marketing. That's a starting point to standing on the shoulders of your wisdom!" ------------------------- Just in from the "Stephen I have to say that I would have paid the fee just for your "Everything I wish I knew when I was 22" - it was absolutely brilliant and really forced me to think about my own set up in the UK. I sat there reading it thinking "This is me"! Many of the problems you highlighted I am currently dealing with myself, and your views were certainly a balanced and well thought out comment on my current situation. Keep up the good work."Stephen Cowley Steve Cowley's Martial Arts Academy Unit 4B, Desborough Industrial Park Desborough Park Road High Wycombe, Bucks HP12 3BG United Kingdom steve@bodyfitgym.co.uk -------------------------------------------------------------"
