5.0 out of 5 stars A "Must Have Reference" For Effective Networking!, July 14, 1999
By A Customer
This review is from: The Personal Touch: What You Really Need to Succeed in Today's Fast Paced Business World (Paperback)
The Personal Touch, contributes to Terrie William's encouragement of establishing and maintaining relationships. Professionally, or personally, this book suggests practical methods and opportunites to enhance relationships. She shares experiences that enable new business owners to avoid mistakes commonly and frequently made, or neglected.

I recently reread the book to prepare for a networking event. My confidence was heightened, and my preparedness to meet my objectives was concisley manuevered.

It's simple, basic and easy to read, yet filled with a wealth of constructive information that will enhance lives in regard to appreciating others . Apply her recommendations, and the results are clearly and immediately noticed.

I had the opportunity to meet and hear her speak recently in New Orleans. Her personality and speech demonstrated the etiquette of professionalism with a friendly and personalable touch.

3.0 out of 5 stars Personal Touch, May 26, 2000
By 
Annie R Holloman (Prattville, Alabama) - See all my reviews
This review is from: The Personal Touch: What You Really Need to Succeed in Today's Fast Paced Business World (Paperback)
I really enjoyed the book written by Terrie Williams. Ms. Williams brought out much needed things that we humans of today seem to have forgotten.

If more people would adhere to the principles of personal touch, the world would be a better place to live and we as humans would not be under so much stress.

One of my Teachers once wrote in my autograph book upon graduation the saying,"To suceed, you must proceed to exceed". I think Ms. Williams said that many times in her book in many different ways.

She made me think back to basics, and that "Common sense is no longer common. Personal Touch could be sub titled "Good News". Which means Gospel.

I highly recommend this book to anyone who strives to be sucessful.

5.0 out of 5 stars The purchase of this book is a worthwhile investment, August 12, 1999
This review is from: The Personal Touch: What You Really Need to Succeed in Today's Fast Paced Business World (Paperback)
Easy reading at its best. The whole time I was reading this book, it felt more like sitting around talking with a "sister friend" in my living room or kitchen having a friendly informative conversation. The writing and flow of the book was done in such a way that you felt like Terri was in the room with you.

From the moment I received this book, I had it with me everyday to read (during my lunch break, traveling to and from work). I could not, nor did I want to put it down. This book is a valuable business reference guide for both women and men. And for those individuals considering becoming future entrepreneurs, a definite must to add to your reading list. I enjoyed reading the contents of this book more so then any career workshop or college business course I've had to sit through for three hours!

This is a must read. Your money will not be wasted with the purchase of this book. It is indeed a smart and worthwhile investment.

Thank you Terri for sharing and giving back to others.
