Did you catch our webinar last week?💡 Jenna Owen and Hannah Cary covered how authors can capitalise on the New Year and provided expert PR tactics to position your activities effectively for 2025. Hannah says; "It was great to see so many authors join our recent webinar on maximising New Year trends. Aligning your book with topical stories is essential to keeping it relevant and boost your visibility. The 5 step process we shared with attendees gives authors a tried and tested formula for assessing trends, creating content and building a long-term strategy. We look forward to seeing how they put it into practice!" If you missed it, there's still time to prepare!

It’s launch day for The Heart of Finance by James Woodfall - Communication and Behaviour Specialist and Cliff Lansley PhD! Many challenges currently face financial planners, with a tough economic climate, evolving client needs and the growing influence of technology, however, one thing remains constant: the importance of emotional intelligence (EI). Financial planners across the globe deal with the complex emotions that come with their clients’ live events every day, including grief, fear, anxiety, and anger. Research from experts James Woodfall and Cliff Lansley discovered that financial advisers with high EI who are able to respond to these emotions achieve higher sales, obtain more referrals, and retain more clients. Woodfall and Lansley’s new book The Heart of Finance enables finance professionals to develop the EI needed to build effective and profitable client relationships. This practical El toolkit outlines the key components of EI before demonstrating how and why this needs to be applied to the five stages of the client journey. Within the book, the authors reinforce the importance of fundamental EI skills, such as different communication styles and recognising emotional triggers in clients. The Heart of Finance by James Woodfall and Cliff Lansley is available now on Amazon: https://lnkd.in/e2CNmMea #booklaunch #financetips #businessbook #bookpublicity #financefundamentals

Peter Buturo’s book “Social Work and Beyond” is out today! After obtaining a Bachelor of Science degree in Social Work from Birmingham City University, he embarked upon a career as a social worker and foster carer. In 2020, Peter started his own business and founded Bold Leap, where he provides care and support to children in care within a residential home setting and supported accommodation. Within Social Work and Beyond, Peter shines an essential spotlight on how social work professionals can thrive in a demanding and fast-paced sector. Only when social workers take care of themselves are they truly able to take care of others, push through challenges, and elevate their performance. Furthermore, Peter also illuminates the wide-ranging career possibilities available to social workers and how they can build their own social entrepreneurship venture to increase their impact.
