Win A Slightly Used Copy Of “Linchpin”
Leave a comment below that details your idea for a podcast show topic. Leave the best (totally subjective by me) suggestion and win a three-time used copy of “Linchpin.” Remember, anything related to home remodeling is fair game. It could be a question you want answered, a story you want to share, or a problem you have with a current project. Suggest away! We want it all!
You don’t need to register on the site, only leave a comment. It couldn’t be easier!
I found “Linchpin” to be a truly inspirational book with a totally new perspective on what it means to be an employee, boss or human being.
I won this copy of the book from Aileen Bennett, a motivational speaker from Louisiana. You can find her at thatspeaker.com. She was given the book from a friend. That makes it three-times used! But it’s still in great shape and I promise, no coffee stains!
We will be selecting a winner as part of the June 6th show.
