Customer Reviews

This book is really helping me a lot!

Before I bought this book I was hoping that it was written by an actual massage therapist and not just another marketing person writing another marketing book for another profession that they know nothing about. Yea! I got what I wanted! Not only is Monica Roseberry a very knowledgeable massage therapist but she also knows marketing inside and out! My business is soaring now! She has opened my eyes to how my clients think and what they really need. This is key. Now I look better, I act better, I cater better to my clients. They book more. They pay more. They refer more than ever before! If you've got the energy to do more massage...If you've got the will to provide better, nicer, more professional service to your clients...If you want to learn how to advertize and draw people in like crazy... If you want to learn how to make more money than ever before buy this book. In the book Monica gives you her email address and phone number! Blew my mind. I emailed her and to my surprise the next day she called me on the phone! How many authors would do that? I've seen advertising programs on the internet. El rip-offo! I think I paid like $20 for this book. Now that's a deal. No, it's not a miracle. You have to be a really wonderful person to have lots of clients. You have to know how to take excellent care of yourself...organic food, yoga, self massage, prayer, meditation, and whatever else you can do to stay healthy. Healing work is not easy and that's why 95% of those that start it drop out. If you want to be in the top .5% buy this book. Pretty soon I'm going to move to a new place and start a new practice. Asheville, NC is said to be totally saturated with massage therapists. Am I worried? Yes, a bit but now that I've read this book I feel ten times more confident than before. I can do it and so can you. If you read this book and really do what it says to do you will be way beyond many therapists that have years of practice under thier belt. No joke! Good luck and happy healing. Brett Rodgers LMT

A Must Have

A must have for beginers, even for therapists that have been in business for a while. Great marketing ideas and tips. This book has changed my practice, by not only giving me the confidence I needed but also to be able to follow through with ideas and the know how on how to do it in a more professional manner. Awesome book, kudos to Monica Reseberry!

Loved it and couldn't put it down

It's been the best book on massage marketing that I have read and better than any massage marketing class that I have attended. I really couldn't put it down and spent all my down time reading. Most of the suggestions are in practice by many, I'm sure, but it's just some common sense advice that she gives or maybe just a positive attitude towards our service oriented careers that has made a big difference for me. I can't say that since I've read the book (one month ago) that I've had a surge in clients, but it's made the clients I have more satisfied. And my head is definitely filled with new ideas.

Absolutely a must have for all bodyworker students

This book covered a wide area of massage, business start up, brochure, business card and all of the in-betweens. I would advise all students of massage therapy to get this book because it will not matter what modality you are about to embark into, this book will help you get there successfully.

more than just how to market massage

i have been looking for someone to put these words in print for a VERY long time... anyone and everyone wno is even close to being in the field of bodywork MUST read this book... not only is it a guide for marketing massage, it is also a guide for how to simply be a massage professional.
