“As a client of BSB, I rely on Keri as my go-to person. Not only has she helped me with the nuances of author platform building and marketing, she’s helped me refine my writing and clarify my message.
Keri works with many authors, but she takes the time to discuss my issues and concerns, and helps me focus on what is important. She’s been delighted to step in and take care of tasks for me or walk me through the process toward self-sufficiency. She is highly responsive, and if I ask her opinion, she provides a clear answer and backs it up with solid data.
What I love most about Keri — aside from her wonderful sense of humor — is that she is passionate about what she does and she strives to learn and stay ahead of the curve in an industry that is changing at hyperspeed.
I would absolutely recommend Keri's services to authors looking to grow their online presence and market their books.”
~Alex Hayes, Author of The Chameleon series
