Thank-you’s and reviews

Thanks again for the coaching and edits. You helped me see better on many levels – style and clarity, details and organization.

- Andrea Kihlstedt, author
of “Capital Campaigns:
Strategies That Work.”

Your constructive criticism and specific suggestions led to improvements in clarity, readability, and logic at every level, from the organization of the book’s major sections down to the wording of individual sections.

- Robert Plotkin, author of
“Genie in the Machine.”

Its clear, precise prose soars above that of most business books.

To grow as a writer, it helps immensely to have a teacher who can encourage you, critique your efforts without stunting your ambitions, and bring passion and insight to both workshops and textual analysis. Randy Burgess is such a teacher.
