In this episode, Monique is pleased to welcome Renee Purdie to the show. Renee is a multi-talented publisher, graphic designer, marketing guru, and academic with two master's degrees and she also plans to pursue a Ph.D. in Education. 

Renee looks back on her entrepreneurial journey while sharing stories and experiences gathered during her years as an independent publisher, cooking aficionado, and designer. Renee also shares how having all the fanciest software or latest computer tools does not guarantee a high-quality product, but knowing your target market and focusing on clean, legible consistency can take your product further than splashy design gimmicks. 

Monique and Renee also share creative ideas and social media strategies for bringing attention to your latest book, product, or endeavor.
