A Great Reminder of How Powerful Timing Really Is

I love how Michael's message is all about not letting this pandemic or any single event derail you from moving forward. This book covers many of the strategies you can use TODAY to get back in front of clients, make new connections and deepen your relationships while everyone else is retreating.

A great reminder that this is now the time to act and the rewards will come to those who do.

ACT NOW changed my perspective!

This book was released during the COVID-19 pandemic, which we are in right now as I write this review. This book outlined mindsets and strategies that helped me unlock new consulting clients despite the general pullback of corporations' investments in consultants, not to mention the decline of the entire economy.
The secret to what do in uncertain times is given away in the title "ACT NOW", but to learn the "how?" you are going to need to check out this book. I really like how the points in the book are demonstrated with the experience of real successful consultants - this stuff is practical.

Perfect for the times

I appreciated the stories of other people and companies that faced hard times, and because of the right mindset took advantage of the opportunities and thrived.

A quick and concise read loaded w/ great advice!

The insights provided by Michael and the other experts he interviewed are especially actionable in today's global landscape, but will still be very relevant whenever the next crisis strikes. It focuses on having a bold mindset and equips you with innovative tactics to form a cohesive strategy to thrive during times of uncertainty.
The concepts are not only applicable to consultants, but for any business owner requiring high-touch with your customers/clients. I own a restaurant and keep this book handy to refer to it often. A great investment!
