Guest Speaker - Shelley Hussey
Shelley's new book I'm Not Ok, You're Not OK, But That's OK With God: Finding the Humor and Healing in Life
Come welcome home this former CAG member as she shares her innovative marketing ideas and discusses her new book.
"I'll share some practical and innovative ways to market your books to the media. I'll mini-coach and coax you into believing that, with God's help, you can sell yourself -thereby your book- to audiences who need to hear your message."
Shelley has been a recent guest on numerous television programs, including FOX and CBS affiliates, as well as our local WATC-TV's Friends & Neighbors and Atlanta Live programs. She has received publicity in the Marietta Daily Journal, Cobb Life, and others and has published an on-line column titled Shameless Husseys
"As a speaker, her use of wit and animation is excellent, but more importantly to me, she's downright funny. Turn your sensitivity button off and come to enjoy a time made for smiles, no-nonsense marketing tips, and inspiration," says Mike.
