  • A true step-by-step guide!
Please ignore the creases in my book as I've not been able to put it down! The author did a phenomenal job in detailing the next steps in bringing a product to market. I was so lost on what steps I should take and "Shelf Talk" provided clarity and understanding of what my next steps should be. I was so excited to find this nugget of gold and I would recommend it to anyone who is as clueless as I am about bringing products to stores. I am looking forward to a second and third book from this author as I could really see her experience shining through her words! This book is definitely worth the buy!!! ... show more

  • Knowledgable Author
Great to have a book by someone who actually has done the work. Roberta has been the buyer that small business owners are trying to get their product in front of, so her word can be trusted.
