February 4, 2018A useful book for those in the field of MLM, but I found the style somewhat dry. This made it a slow read, but some of the info contained made it worthwhile to plod on with reading the book.
If you like a book of a very factual nature, this certainly fits the bill.
Others may find that this flows for them, I just think different authors suit different readers, and even I might find it a better read if visited another time in a different frame of mind.
