I have great respect for both authors: Rob Sylvan and Lawrence Sawyer.

I don’t have my hardcopies yet, but I assure you that the material inside is worth a read since both authors have experience in the industry to make it worth your while.

Congratulations to Rob and Larry. It’s in print!

Both books are available for order online at their respective links that I listed.
