This book starts with the foundations of business success: the development of a business philosophy that works for you, and the strategic application of that philosophy in all areas of your endeavor.
Are you tired? Tired of the daily rat-race of juggling a corporate job (which let’s be honest you don’t really enjoy) whilst running a household and trying to spend time with your family, let alone having any time to yourself? Are you fed up that the higher you try to climb the corporate ladder, the harder it gets, the more politics you encounter and the rewards seem even further away? Are you tired of feeling you are taking one step forward and three steps back with your finances, freedom and life? Have you tried network marketing in the past and failed? You made lists, you contacted everyone you knew and yet your result was a big, fat ZERO? Or perhaps you have never heard of network marketing and if you have, you have a poor opinion of it. Victoria has been there and done that! Climbing the corporate ladder for years only to be dumped on the scrap heap made her search for an answer to the niggling thought inside her head that ‘there has to be more to life than this’. Her search led her on a personal journey of discovery which resulted in overcoming beliefs which were limiting her success, to now earning multiple income streams. The focus of this audiobook is on network marketing, dispelling the myths and rumors which surround this industry and showing how with the right mindset, you too can achieve success.

"As the Lees deftly interview chefs, workers, and clients, their Southern charm enhances their narration...Even non-foodies will savor lesser known morsels of information and marvel at how the wealthy celebrate." — AudioFile MagazineThis program is read by the authors.Matt Lee and Ted Lee take on the competitive, wild world of high-end catering, exposing the secrets of a food business few home cooks or restaurant chefs ever experience.Hotbox reveals the real-life drama behind cavernous event spaces and soaring white tents, where cooking conditions have more in common with a mobile army hospital than a restaurant. Known for their modern take on Southern cooking, the Lee brothers steeped themselves in the catering business for four years, learning the culture from the inside-out. It’s a realm where you find eccentric characters, working in extreme conditions, who must produce magical events and instantly adapt when, for instance, the host’s toast runs a half-hour too long, a hail storm erupts, or a rolling rack of hundreds of ice cream desserts goes wheels-up.Whether they’re dashing through black-tie fundraisers, celebrity-spotting at a Hamptons cookout, or following a silverware crew at 3:00 a.m. in a warehouse in New Jersey, the Lee brothers guide you on a romp from the inner circle—the elite team of chefs using little more than their wits and Sterno to turn out lamb shanks for eight hundred—to the outer reaches of the industries that facilitate the most dazzling galas. You’ll never attend a party—or entertain on your own—in the same way after listening to this audiobook.Show book

The story behind the historic Washington, DC department store, with vintage photos and an introduction by Tim Gunn. Affectionately called “Woodies” by loyal Washingtonians, the beloved department store Woodward & Lothrop stood at the heart of downtown for over a century. Crowds flocked to the flagship store on the F Street shopping corridor to find superior service and the season’s new fashions. The store and its employees shared in the best moments in the lives of Washingtonians, from the elaborate holiday window displays to the Wedding Service department that helped countless brides choose their china patterns. For weary shoppers, the Bake Shop and seventh-floor Tea Room offered city favorites such as Wellesley Fudge Cupcakes and Chicken Pot Pie. Department store historian Michael J. Lisicky brings readers back to the store’s golden age, chronicling the enterprise that made it a retail giant and the missteps that brought the store to its much lamented closing in 1995. Through interviews with store insiders, vintage images and a selection of recipes, Lisicky reveals the magic and the memories behind Woodward & Lothrop. Included is an introduction by Tim Gunn, American fashion icon and Emmy-winning television personality.Show book
