Everything You Need to Sell to Stores Is In This Book!

Megan gets to the point fast and continues to deliver all the real-life practicalities of Selling to Stores from start to finish. Beginning from where I was at, I gained clarity on what to do next, why and how to do it. There are lots of useful examples! Extremely easy to understand, full of passion and motivation, after finishing the book I had everything I needed to jumped right in. Getting over the hump and moving forward is invigorating! Megan has generously put everything on the table and truly knows exactly what is relevant for artists and makers.
