And when you do that, you stop manipulating and twisting arms to get buyers, and instead start attracting, inspiring and inviting your ideal clients into your business. Ahhh -- doesn't that sound wonderful? In this book, love-based copywriting and marketing expert Michele PW (Pariza Wacek) teaches you the philosophy and the foundational principles behind selling with love versus fear – the same proven principles she's used to help her clients sell nearly $50 Million worth of products and services over eight years.

And not only will you feel great about it, so will your ideal clients.
