Month Profiles
C PATRICK BURROWES
Dr. Bette Daoust is an
internationally
acclaimed
author, speaker and consultant
to small business. Dr. Daoust has
a passion for helping others
succeed in business through
sharing her expertise and ideas
through
her
book
series
"Blueprints For Success".
Bette has worked within the
academic community as a
professor and teacher plus
Fortune 500 companies in
developing programs to educate
workers regarding marketing,
technology, and networking.
Her approach to writing and
marketing are a deviation from
the usage of one niche gurus.
Bette pushes authors to master
their craft whether it is fiction or
non-fiction
through
the
production of the best possible
product for the marketplace.
So where does Dr. Daoust get
her experience? As a published
author using both a publishing
house and being self-published,
Bette learned the ins and outs of
the book business. Not only
about the getting to the
published stage and also the
grueling grind of having to
market books on her own.
Her processes and guides are
proven techniques for the book
marketing business. She is
currently working with a team of
authors to provide cutting edge
ideas around book marketing.
The team has produced The
Complete Book Marketing System
through Authors Success Guild.
Her current projects now
include her work on The Book
Marketing Manual.
Carl Patrick Burrowes
Author, scholar and human
rights activist by day. Poet,
book collector and lover of
the arts, especially live
music, after working hours.
Son, father and friend
around the clock.
Born
in
Liberia
and
educated in the United
States, my main passion
has been exploring the r ich
and
often
overlooked
culture,
arts
and
humanities of Africa and its
Diaspora.
As a life-long university
professor
and
administrator, I've been
paid to do what I love read, build knowledge and
challenge young adults to
excel.
Disappointments
and a few regrets aside, my
life has been golden.
