Clarity of focus is the best reason I continue to follow Jonathan's teaching and coaching. Not only does he keep up with recent technology innovations and applications, he willingly shares key strategies for organizing content to get results. The 90-Day planning tool along with "how-to" courses in Launch Lab repeatedly encourages me to continue on because--like everyone else--my message is unique to share. I have especially appreciated the training on Medium, growing my audience from 0 to 933 today (6/22-2/23). Bev Garcia, medium.com/@bevgarcia1

As the launch date of my second book moves closer to becoming a reality, i find myself revisiting many of the helpful tips Jonathan provides in both the Launch Lab and the Market Your Message Academy. The step by step info he provides repeatedly prove to be spot on. For instance, his reviews of different software options have enabled me to not only add some free tools to my toolbox, but have also walked me through how to use their basic functions. I highly recommend both the Launch Lab and the Market Your Message Academy, as well as Jonathan's book, "Your Message Matters."

I really love this book and have already benefitted greatly from its message - that I have a message, and it matters! It's really quite powerful to work within that paradigm. Once we can accept that - and the book provides prompts to help us refine what is our message and who is our audience- then we have a number of opportunities to go about sharing that message. Practical advice for moving started in whatever way will best suit you- and meet the needs of your audience.

I'm a business coach helping professionals transition out of the 9 to 5 to run their own online business even with no prior business or tech know-how. Market Your Message has helped me gain clarity on the business model I should use and how to structure my marketing plans. I love Jonathan's teaching because he is genuine and authentic with none of the hype, just useful content that he generously shares. His sessions are based on practical experience of what has worked or him and his delivery makes it very easy to understand. A rare gem!

Jonathan's Messenger Lab is chock full of valuable resources containing excellent insights, coaching, and knowledge sharing on getting your online business up and running from wherever you are at in the process. He is also connected to others who have additional specialized knowledge and resources to help in other targeted areas (e.g., affiliated marketing, etc.). And the community is great and very encouraging as well. I highly recommend plugging in with Jonathan and gang.

Jonathan's teaching is so easy and simple to understand while the topics he covers can be pretty complex. Using Jonathan's teaching, I have grown my website (https://jmlalonde.com), my confidence, and my abilities.

Jonathan Milligan, I can't put into words how much I appreciate your incredible guidance and teachings at the Market Your Message Academy! Thanks to your knowledge and support, I have been able to follow in your footsteps for my Lazy Workshop Launch. I'm excited to share that this Saturday, I will be hosting my first workshop titled "From Paper to Reality: Transforming Books into Personal Growth Tools." It will be a two-hour event where we will explore how to make the most out of reading. I am truly thrilled by the response I have received so far. I have offered the workshop to my friends and university peers at a price of US$20 per person, and I have 32 people registered! This is truly amazing, and it wouldn't have been possible without your valuable teachings and guidance. I can't wait to share with you the results and experiences from my workshop. Your influence has been instrumental in getting me to this point, and I'm eager to continue learning and growing on this exciting journey. Thank you again, Jonathan!

If you have a message you want to get out into the world, this book is the best, and most complete, I've come across. Not only does the author provide detailed 'how-to's', he also helps readers understand why they must deeply believe in their message, and how to help them empower others to take action.The book also contains a lot of great illustrations, and the author is very transparent about his own journey along the way. Definitely worth getting!

Is there something stirring deep within but you're left staring at a blank page? Do your best efforts at starting an online business feel more like you're bashing your head against a brick wall? Ever wish you had an encouraging, experienced mentor who cut to the chase and gave you clear, concise, practical help? Me too! And I've found what I was searching for in this book. Jonathan is the real deal (a Yoda to my Luke and a Dumbledore to my Harry). I encourage you to grab a copy of this book and let his caring, step-by-step guidance help you believe, define, market and live your message.

This book is one I have read and recommended so many times to entrepreneurs, coaches, and leaders of all kinds. I can't say enough good things about Jonathan's gift for teaching others. When you read this book, if you're anything like me, you'll order a few more to give away. It's that good!

I've followed Jonathan for years and had the opportunity to purchase this book. It's a great mix of motivation, instruction and case studies on how to launch your online business. What's great is that he's actually tested and mastered the processes that he has written about in the book. With this book there are no excuses for not launching into the deep. Jonathan say's it best...Your Message Matters!

When you know you were made for impact, you can easily get stuck in paralysis, trying to do it all, BE it all straight out the gate. 'Your Message Matters' really helped me realize that I can have so much more impact focusing on one role at a time. Through the quiz, I realized I am a writer first, then coach, then speaker, then teacher. I was literally trying to start off by teaching and speaking, which was shattering my self-confidence and felt like such an uphill battle. Since reading the book, I have had much more success sticking to writing and coaching my ONE client for now. I am getting to naturally hone those 2 more awkward skillsets in the shadows, while shining in my natural skills. I so appreciate this book and am now writing my own book! I will probably read this again whenever I feel overwhelmed or like I am trying to do it all rather than operate in my natural skillsets.

Love this book. Its stories and style are presented in an easy to read format without a lot of technical jargon that make it difficult to navigate many other business books. Your Message Matters also features many common sense practical and challenging exercises and quotable nuggets of wisdom to get your brain going with practical action steps and inspiration. I highly recommend for anyone interested in scaling their online business.

I wasn't sure if I had a distinct message before reading Jonathan Milligan's book, Your Message Matters.By the time I finished I was sure that I did and I better understood how to manage my message. Jonathan shares from his years of learning and teaching to help readers define, market, and prosper from their own unique message.I recommend this book to anyone wanting to make an impact with their message. It matters!

"Confidence comes when you believe your message matters!"If you have struggled with a lack of confidence in your ability to build a business around your passion, get this book. By filtering and analyzing what you have to offer against a valuable set of criteria, you can put yourself in a position to start to build that business. Jonathan offers a complete step-by-step guide to generating and delivering your message as the basis for a life-changing business.

Jonathan has a heart for helping others to apply what they are learning. He does not merely instruct and then leave people on their own. With his excellent instructional design, short videos, and consistent appetite for learning, he shares practical wisdom to market YOUR message. Hard work and consistent effort are involved. This is not an easy road to take, but he patiently answers questions along the route by providing support and clear direction for followers. I especially appreciate that he is a pastor, as a shepherd cares for his sheep by walking his talk as an authentic Christian mentor, husband, and father, listening to God's voice, surrendered to the Spirit of God within him. His own thirst for learning by staying current with new, more efficient tools and techniques, including online maintenance for marketing your message, invigorates live online training sessions. https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/41OwyzGhzRL._SY88.jpg

Your Message Matters is filled with Inspiration and practical ways to define your message and for that message to be heard. Read it and follow the steps!

Even though I am now in my 8th decade of life, it is important for me to keep learning and unlearning. Jonathan Milligan is successful not in just his own endeavors and they are many but in his ability and willingness to turn around and offer advice to others that works! YOUR MESSAGE MATTERS is a powerful tool for the entrepreneur who wants to understand processes as well as results without wasted personal trial and error. GET THIS BOOK! Keep it handy!

Great workbook. Putting together my coaching program. This helps a lot. https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/713qMWx91hL._SY88.jpg https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/81FhkNrAb9L._SY88.jpg

Jonathan really gives the reader the encouragement and insight how to begin this journey. Thank you Jonathan for this gem that you have created.Liset

This book is great! Jonathan teaches in a way that is easy to understand.

This book has important information in regards to uncovering your talent and skills if you are a teacher who is thinking about retiring and going to do an online business. I, myself, have been in the education field for 13 years, and I wanted some control of my life. The book gives you a survey of to see if your voice is a writer, coach, speaker, and/or teacher. I found out that I am more of a writer. The book gives you excellent resources of how to start an online a business and how to market yourself (book) through the internet.

I got this book from the author as a promotion where I only had to pay for shipping. I had signed up for his email list, but I honestly never opened one until the book offer. I figured what the heck, it can’t hurt. I was expecting a “quick read” (aka a case study stuffed with fluff”. Don’t get me wrong, sometimes you find a 70-page book full of pure gold, but most people feel the need to add filler content for more pages. But I digress, because this book is not a fluffy case study. This book is jam packed with information AND exercises that you can do yourself. It’s like he aggregated all of the important knowledge about showing up online, and he put it together in such an easy step-by-step format that you see all the gears click and fall into place. This book was the key to unlocking my story. It confirmed what I already was thinking, and it eased my mind about making the “wrong decision.” If there ever was a book that would remove your analysis paralysis about if you should get started online, this is it. No more wondering which platform should you use, what kind of content will you make, what should you talk about, how will I make money, and, most importantly, no more wondering if you made the wrong choice!!Highly recommend. He’s a great teacher. I highly recommend you sign up for one of his challenges. He did a free 5-day livestream event that covered the most important parts from the book, but the book has even more goodies that weren’t in the challenge!

Okay, so I have read a ton of books about law of attraction, manifesting, writing, finding your passion, etc. I had no idea that this book was going to be so full of so many amazing tips and helpful life-changing moves. Seriously! I think the title of the book does not do this book justice. This book is by far one of the best books on helping you share your passion with the world.I love that there are examples of people who were coached by the author and ended up doing what they love. I am an author and an inventor and I have had an idea for a non-fiction book for awhile. I keep receiving signs that I am supposed to do it and then, I read something in this book that just absolutely spoke to me! I decided to take action and start a webpage and a blog and just put out content once a day maybe once a week. I am still creating it as we speak 😊I know that anyone looking to either find their passion, learn more about their passion, and live a wonderful life through your purpose, will absolutely love this book!

Great book. Well written, useful content that is actionable. The book is worth reading and his platform of materials and services worth exploring. Highly recommend.

Jonathan’s book is chocked full of life affirming words, how to’s and tools. It’s a page-turner of relevant stories and hard earned wisdom. I’m on this messenger journey now and his book is the treasured roadmap. “Part 4: Live Your Message” spoke clearly to me. Now I’m energized to “live my message” as a guide and not get hung up on being an expert. And he clearly explains how to do that for my audience. Just one of many practical learnings from his years of experience. Encourage you to get the book!

Jonathan includes both the why and the how in this book, plus walks you through step by step. I highly recommend this for anyone wanting to start a message-based business.

Jonathan's voice is a great combination of information, encouragement, and challenge. After years of following his podcasts, I was excited to pick up this book. It did not disappoint.

Great book, I definitely recommend it!I learned so many important tips, this book helps you find direction in your message based business and suggests ways to set appropriate goals to progress forward to success!I will venture to call it a “must read”!

This book reaches deeply into self-introspection and helps a person get in touch with the internal message that wants to come out. Well worth the time and money. It pays back and more.

Excellent material. On point & day to day helpful, not esoteric & fluffy, but the meat of the process. It moves you through the niche decisions, then helps you find your voice. After that he proceeds to give you handholds & specifics on setting yourself up with an online presence ready to learn, grow & make money.

Your Message Matters really helped me figure out how to promote my coaching business. I learned that I’m more comfortable and effective making videos rather than writing blog posts. That concept alone saved me lots of time. I highly recommend this to everyone that wants to make a difference with your message.

This book is very inspirational. I’ve thought about starting a blog for awhile, but had no idea how to start or even why I should. Jonathan lays it all out very clearly in this book.

A small-business success how-to book that is especially apt for speakers, consultants, info marketers, and other solopreneurs whose businesses center around intellectual property--specifically around one big central idea. Milligan show how to clearly and powerfully communicate your core message to your market, resulting in greater demand for your products and services among your target market. He could have aptly titled his engaging and useful book "Think and Grow Rich" -- but of course that title is already taken.

"Your Message Matters" is a must-read for anyone who wants to grow their business and build relationships. I have been following Jonathan's message on his podcast and social media for quite some time now. In fact, his lessons are in the works on a few projects that I am currently working on, behind the scenes.Jonathan has a friendly and approachable style that makes reading his posts an absolute pleasure, so when I heard about the release of this book, I was keen to get my hands on a copy.It didn't disappoint. The book is packed with inspiring stories from real-life experiences that Jonathan has had working with clients and it contains an action plan for your business, whatever your level of experience.

This was a great book I would definitely encourage all small business owners out there to buy this book. Really helps to define your goals and what you are trying to accomplish through your business.

I'm 85 years old, and I have found this book useful in my freelance business.

Jonathan begins with a comprehensive strategic overview of the “what” and follows that with several chapters of the “how”. This is a well-written book and what I would consider a “must read” for someone who wants to share his/her message and make money doing so.

This was a good read for me. I came across this book at the right time in my journey in becoming a full-time blogger.I enjoyed the importance that was continually shared in this book over “my message does matter.” I am the only one who can deliver it the way that only I can.There arenotjernlessonsninnjere that I'm walking away with but this is the one that they are all rolled up with for me.

https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/81M14mjznIL._SY88.jpg

Prior to reading this book, I spent endless hours sifting through a variety of competing, and conflicting marketing info. When all was said and done, I felt no better prepared than when I started. "Your Message Matters" is different; it offers much needed practical information. It has been easy to apply info found in this book to a website that I am creating to help market my paperback and upcoming eBook "Flock of Quackers." Thank you Jonathan Milligan for writing such an awesome book!

Practical, engaging and such a useful resource that I will find myself going back to again and again.

Jonathan shares practical ideas that will help you clarify your message and help you start or scale your business. His four-step framework will encourage, educate, and empower you to add value to others while remaining authentically yourself. This book will help you make and take the decisions needed to turn your dream into reality.

Clarity of focus is the best reason I continue to follow Jonathan's teaching and coaching. Not only does he keep up with recent technology innovations and applications, he willingly shares key strategies for organizing content to get results. The 90-Day planning tool along with "how-to" courses in Launch Lab repeatedly encourages me to continue on because--like everyone else--my message is unique to share. I have especially appreciated the training on Medium, growing my audience from 0 to 933 today (6/22-2/23). Bev Garcia, medium.com/@bevgarcia1

As the launch date of my second book moves closer to becoming a reality, i find myself revisiting many of the helpful tips Jonathan provides in both the Launch Lab and the Market Your Message Academy. The step by step info he provides repeatedly prove to be spot on. For instance, his reviews of different software options have enabled me to not only add some free tools to my toolbox, but have also walked me through how to use their basic functions. I highly recommend both the Launch Lab and the Market Your Message Academy, as well as Jonathan's book, "Your Message Matters."

I really love this book and have already benefitted greatly from its message - that I have a message, and it matters! It's really quite powerful to work within that paradigm. Once we can accept that - and the book provides prompts to help us refine what is our message and who is our audience- then we have a number of opportunities to go about sharing that message. Practical advice for moving started in whatever way will best suit you- and meet the needs of your audience.

I'm a business coach helping professionals transition out of the 9 to 5 to run their own online business even with no prior business or tech know-how. Market Your Message has helped me gain clarity on the business model I should use and how to structure my marketing plans. I love Jonathan's teaching because he is genuine and authentic with none of the hype, just useful content that he generously shares. His sessions are based on practical experience of what has worked or him and his delivery makes it very easy to understand. A rare gem!

Jonathan's Messenger Lab is chock full of valuable resources containing excellent insights, coaching, and knowledge sharing on getting your online business up and running from wherever you are at in the process. He is also connected to others who have additional specialized knowledge and resources to help in other targeted areas (e.g., affiliated marketing, etc.). And the community is great and very encouraging as well. I highly recommend plugging in with Jonathan and gang.

Jonathan's teaching is so easy and simple to understand while the topics he covers can be pretty complex. Using Jonathan's teaching, I have grown my website (https://jmlalonde.com), my confidence, and my abilities.

Jonathan Milligan, I can't put into words how much I appreciate your incredible guidance and teachings at the Market Your Message Academy! Thanks to your knowledge and support, I have been able to follow in your footsteps for my Lazy Workshop Launch. I'm excited to share that this Saturday, I will be hosting my first workshop titled "From Paper to Reality: Transforming Books into Personal Growth Tools." It will be a two-hour event where we will explore how to make the most out of reading. I am truly thrilled by the response I have received so far. I have offered the workshop to my friends and university peers at a price of US$20 per person, and I have 32 people registered! This is truly amazing, and it wouldn't have been possible without your valuable teachings and guidance. I can't wait to share with you the results and experiences from my workshop. Your influence has been instrumental in getting me to this point, and I'm eager to continue learning and growing on this exciting journey. Thank you again, Jonathan!

If you have a message you want to get out into the world, this book is the best, and most complete, I've come across. Not only does the author provide detailed 'how-to's', he also helps readers understand why they must deeply believe in their message, and how to help them empower others to take action.The book also contains a lot of great illustrations, and the author is very transparent about his own journey along the way. Definitely worth getting!

Is there something stirring deep within but you're left staring at a blank page? Do your best efforts at starting an online business feel more like you're bashing your head against a brick wall? Ever wish you had an encouraging, experienced mentor who cut to the chase and gave you clear, concise, practical help? Me too! And I've found what I was searching for in this book. Jonathan is the real deal (a Yoda to my Luke and a Dumbledore to my Harry). I encourage you to grab a copy of this book and let his caring, step-by-step guidance help you believe, define, market and live your message.

This book is one I have read and recommended so many times to entrepreneurs, coaches, and leaders of all kinds. I can't say enough good things about Jonathan's gift for teaching others. When you read this book, if you're anything like me, you'll order a few more to give away. It's that good!

I've followed Jonathan for years and had the opportunity to purchase this book. It's a great mix of motivation, instruction and case studies on how to launch your online business. What's great is that he's actually tested and mastered the processes that he has written about in the book. With this book there are no excuses for not launching into the deep. Jonathan say's it best...Your Message Matters!

When you know you were made for impact, you can easily get stuck in paralysis, trying to do it all, BE it all straight out the gate. 'Your Message Matters' really helped me realize that I can have so much more impact focusing on one role at a time. Through the quiz, I realized I am a writer first, then coach, then speaker, then teacher. I was literally trying to start off by teaching and speaking, which was shattering my self-confidence and felt like such an uphill battle. Since reading the book, I have had much more success sticking to writing and coaching my ONE client for now. I am getting to naturally hone those 2 more awkward skillsets in the shadows, while shining in my natural skills. I so appreciate this book and am now writing my own book! I will probably read this again whenever I feel overwhelmed or like I am trying to do it all rather than operate in my natural skillsets.

Love this book. Its stories and style are presented in an easy to read format without a lot of technical jargon that make it difficult to navigate many other business books. Your Message Matters also features many common sense practical and challenging exercises and quotable nuggets of wisdom to get your brain going with practical action steps and inspiration. I highly recommend for anyone interested in scaling their online business.

I wasn't sure if I had a distinct message before reading Jonathan Milligan's book, Your Message Matters.By the time I finished I was sure that I did and I better understood how to manage my message. Jonathan shares from his years of learning and teaching to help readers define, market, and prosper from their own unique message.I recommend this book to anyone wanting to make an impact with their message. It matters!

"Confidence comes when you believe your message matters!"If you have struggled with a lack of confidence in your ability to build a business around your passion, get this book. By filtering and analyzing what you have to offer against a valuable set of criteria, you can put yourself in a position to start to build that business. Jonathan offers a complete step-by-step guide to generating and delivering your message as the basis for a life-changing business.

Jonathan has a heart for helping others to apply what they are learning. He does not merely instruct and then leave people on their own. With his excellent instructional design, short videos, and consistent appetite for learning, he shares practical wisdom to market YOUR message. Hard work and consistent effort are involved. This is not an easy road to take, but he patiently answers questions along the route by providing support and clear direction for followers. I especially appreciate that he is a pastor, as a shepherd cares for his sheep by walking his talk as an authentic Christian mentor, husband, and father, listening to God's voice, surrendered to the Spirit of God within him. His own thirst for learning by staying current with new, more efficient tools and techniques, including online maintenance for marketing your message, invigorates live online training sessions. https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/41OwyzGhzRL._SY88.jpg

Your Message Matters is filled with Inspiration and practical ways to define your message and for that message to be heard. Read it and follow the steps!

Even though I am now in my 8th decade of life, it is important for me to keep learning and unlearning. Jonathan Milligan is successful not in just his own endeavors and they are many but in his ability and willingness to turn around and offer advice to others that works! YOUR MESSAGE MATTERS is a powerful tool for the entrepreneur who wants to understand processes as well as results without wasted personal trial and error. GET THIS BOOK! Keep it handy! It truly is a timesaver. https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/51T9S1WraNL._SY88.jpg

If you’ve been thinking about blogging, teaching, coaching, writing or podcasting, then give this a read. Jonathan Milligan breaks down different ways to get your message out there, starting points, etc. I have no regrets with this book.

This book certainly started to take the mystery out of marketing but giving straightforward advice and excercises to help you identify tour core message. For the first time I began to see what I was meant to be focusing on in my messaging and marketing.

Great workbook. Putting together my coaching program. This helps a lot. https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/713qMWx91hL._SY88.jpg https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/81FhkNrAb9L._SY88.jpg

I devoured this book! So much great information in such a small package. Jonathan Milligan has hit it out of the park!Full of actionable steps, this book delivers the foundation on which to market and build any business, not just writers, coaches or speakers.If you want to build your business and your brand, GET THIS BOOK!

This book has been such a good read for me. This is exactly the message that I have been looking for. I have been thinking of starting my own blog/business. I have not really known where to start. Jonathan really gives the reader the encouragement and insight how to begin this journey. Thank you Jonathan for this gem that you have created.Liset

This book is great! Jonathan teaches in a way that is easy to understand.

This book has important information in regards to uncovering your talent and skills if you are a teacher who is thinking about retiring and going to do an online business. I, myself, have been in the education field for 13 years, and I wanted some control of my life. The book gives you a survey of to see if your voice is a writer, coach, speaker, and/or teacher. I found out that I am more of a writer. The book gives you excellent resources of how to start an online a business and how to market yourself (book) through the internet.

I got this book from the author as a promotion where I only had to pay for shipping. I had signed up for his email list, but I honestly never opened one until the book offer. I figured what the heck, it can’t hurt. I was expecting a “quick read” (aka a case study stuffed with fluff”. Don’t get me wrong, sometimes you find a 70-page book full of pure gold, but most people feel the need to add filler content for more pages. But I digress, because this book is not a fluffy case study. This book is jam packed with information AND exercises that you can do yourself. It’s like he aggregated all of the important knowledge about showing up online, and he put it together in such an easy step-by-step format that you see all the gears click and fall into place. This book was the key to unlocking my story. It confirmed what I already was thinking, and it eased my mind about making the “wrong decision.” If there ever was a book that would remove your analysis paralysis about if you should get started online, this is it. No more wondering which platform should you use, what kind of content will you make, what should you talk about, how will I make money, and, most importantly, no more wondering if you made the wrong choice!!Highly recommend. He’s a great teacher. I highly recommend you sign up for one of his challenges. He did a free 5-day livestream event that covered the most important parts from the book, but the book has even more goodies that weren’t in the challenge!

Okay, so I have read a ton of books about law of attraction, manifesting, writing, finding your passion, etc. I had no idea that this book was going to be so full of so many amazing tips and helpful life-changing moves. Seriously! I think the title of the book does not do this book justice. This book is by far one of the best books on helping you share your passion with the world.I love that there are examples of people who were coached by the author and ended up doing what they love. I am an author and an inventor and I have had an idea for a non-fiction book for awhile. I keep receiving signs that I am supposed to do it and then, I read something in this book that just absolutely spoke to me! I decided to take action and start a webpage and a blog and just put out content once a day maybe once a week. I am still creating it as we speak 😊I know that anyone looking to either find their passion, learn more about their passion, and live a wonderful life through your purpose, will absolutely love this book!

Great book. Well written, useful content that is actionable. The book is worth reading and his platform of materials and services worth exploring. Highly recommend.

Jonathan’s book is chocked full of life affirming words, how to’s and tools. It’s a page-turner of relevant stories and hard earned wisdom. I’m on this messenger journey now and his book is the treasured roadmap. “Part 4: Live Your Message” spoke clearly to me. Now I’m energized to “live my message” as a guide and not get hung up on being an expert. And he clearly explains how to do that for my audience. Just one of many practical learnings from his years of experience. Encourage you to get the book!

Jonathan includes both the why and the how in this book, plus walks you through step by step. I highly recommend this for anyone wanting to start a message-based business.

Jonathan's voice is a great combination of information, encouragement, and challenge. After years of following his podcasts, I was excited to pick up this book. It did not disappoint. If you are pursuing (or considering) a new content-focused business, this is a great resource. https://images-na.ssl-images-amazon.com/images/I/71Jsvk6zUgL._SY88.jpg

Jonathon your book was the second book on writing I bought and I have to say you write like you're speaking directly and privately to each reader. I have more of the book hilighted than not. I'm writing my first book and you book has been like a clear path for me to follow.Thanks for putting it out there for those of us who struggle.Karen C

I am reading this book again and again. It is unquestionably the most helpful tool I have bought in this genre.

Mr. Milligan has completely crushed it here. He's a seasoned expert who has that ever-so-rare talent for boiling down complex concepts so that they're extremely digestible and actionable.On a scale of on to ten, this book is a fifty---I mean it.Run out and invest in Jonathan's book now. Right now. You'll be delighted you did.

This book is classic Jonathan: clear, methodical and inspiring. You come away feeling like, 'I can do this!' I'm a member of Jonathan's online membership site, and still found great value from this book.

"Your Message Matters" gave me the courage to believe that it does - and how to share it more effectively.
