Trainings
Product Launch Formula with Jeff Walker
Learn How to Launch a Product, Service, or Book and Create a Business (and Life) You Love from the man who taught us everything we know about successful launches. This is the A+ class to be in if you're launching anything for the first time or multiple times per year!
Audible: Audio Books
#1 source for business audiobooks. Leaders are readers. Katie reads about 4 books per month and a great many of the business books I've read have actually been “listened to” via audible. A great resource for leaders on the go.
DISCLOSURE: Katie (or the team) has tested every recommendation on this page. Many of the resources listed here are things we use everyday. (or were super important to the development of the business in the growing stages).

Please understand that we have experience with all of these companies, and we recommend them because they are helpful and useful, not because of the small commissions we make if you decide to buy something. Please do not invest any resources in these products unless you feel you need them or that they will help you achieve your goals. (Full Disclosure Here)
