When Lindsey and Kristi offered to help me with my recent Facebook launch party, I was relieved to have someone there with me to make sure I didn’t bore my readers! They definitely weren’t bored, but even more than that, Lindsey asked insightful questions that made for fun conversation, and she sprinkled in the promotional bits–reminders to buy my book and places where they could do so–that I, as the author, wasn’t as comfortable saying. In short, they made the process fun and easy and took much of the pressure off me! I heartily recommend them for any kind of online launch or Q&A.
