Update #2 - Can we get to 500? Aug. 30, 2018

Hello there, my fellow Conversation Designers!


This month has been amazing. I've been so pleased to see so many people support the book and its message. And you, my backers, are the best!


Over the last several weeks I've been on three podcasts and one webinar to talk about the book and have enjoyed each interviewer's take on the material. It's thrilling to see people "get it" and to get the message out!


Right now, we're just past 250 copies. I'm starting to get offers from hybrid publishers at this level of pre-sales - groups that can support the book and help it reach an audience. 


At 500, I will get introductions to more major imprints and this thing gets real.


With two days to go, is it possible to double pre-orders? I think so! I just need:


a) Each of you to hound a friend to go buy a copy :-)
or
b) 4 people who want a half or full day workshop for their team
or 
c) both?


For the next two days, these workshops are a steal.


You've bought the book.  (thank you!) 


If you want help bringing a deeper change into your team or organization, consider bringing me in to do a custom workshop on collaboration, communication, facilitation or leading creativity.

Text me at 646-484-9724 with any questions if you're wondering what you get for your purchase at the higher sponsorship levels. I'm happy to tell you more, share referrals, etc.

Thanks so much for going on this ride with me!


Best, 


Daniel
