For The Interested - FTI #389: Take their word for it
"This should be required viewing for any entrepreneur, but especially for we solopreneurs who find ourselves mired in information overload and too much to do."
That's what Elizabeth Cottrell said after watching my Solopreneur Simplifier skill session.
Karla Fernandes called it "absolutely outstanding" with an "approach to simplifying things that's unmatched."
And Kerstin Rao said it made her "feel seen."

Get it today for just $25 - price doubles on Tuesday.
