About the Book:

This insightful book makes three points clear:

  1. The key to long-term business success is for the leader to declare war on him/herself so that the company never rests on its laurels
  2. Customer satisfaction is a curse in disguise. The overwhelming need is not to satisfy your customers/clients but to thrill them.
  3. Only four factors lead to business failure and stagnation. Identifying and addressing these plagues is the focus of the war.

Your Company Sucks pulls back the curtain on the four reasons business decline and shows how you can transition from failing to flourishing. It’s not too late to turn your company around.

Authors: Peter Tanous and Jeff Cox
Publisher: Wiley

Financial analyst, Peter Tanous, and CNBC journalist, Jeff Cox, hired Newman Communications for a book publicity tour to promote their new book, Debt, Deficits, and the Demise of the American Economy. As the events of the global economic crisis continue to unfold, Newman Communications helped Tanous and Cox act as a timely resource, able to discuss the ongoing troubling financial events. To date, Newman Communications has scheduled the authors with more than 50 media interviews. A sample of these hits include an article on AOL DailyFinance discussing how investors can prepare for a double-dip recession and another including Peter Tanous on Yahoo! Finance’s “The Daily Ticker,” discussing the dire outlook of inflation.

In Debt, Deficits, and the Demise of the American Economy, Tanous and Cox discuss how the US is heading toward an unavoidable financial catastrophe that will paralyze the markets and the overall economy.

A timely must-read for all, the authors look at how the US landed in this black hole, how the crisis will continue to unfold, and how it will end with a stock market crash in 2012, if not sooner. Although Tanous and Cox do not predict the exact time, they do spell out the linear direction of this predictable crisis and provide the resources readers need to counter the effects of higher inflation.

Melissa Orlov, promoting ADHD Effect on Marriage with Print and TV Book Publicity Tour

ADHD Effect on Marriage

The ADHD Effect On Marriage

The ADHD Effect On Marriage

Melissa Orlov wanted to get her message across to not just people with ADHD but to all involved in a relationship.  Bringing her message to us for a Print and TV Book Publicity Tour,  Newman was able to bring Melissa’s expertise to such national exposure as The Today Show , The New York Times , The Boston Globe, CNN’s American Morning and many more.

Most couples who have ADHD affecting their marriages have no idea why they are so unhappy.  They just know that they have tried hard to make things better, and are intensely frustrated that nothing seems to work.  Because they are unaware that ADHD is playing a role, couples in these relationships often pick exactly the wrong approaches to solving their marital problems – approaches that would make sense for most couples, but not when one or both partners has ADHD.  But here’s the good news.  Once couples understand the patterns that ADHD introduces into a relationship they can turn their marriage around.

The ADHD Effect on Marriage, Understand and Rebuild Your Relationship in Six Steps isn’t about a “miracle cure,” but about providing the knowledge and tools couples need to reshape their relationship into the loving, supportive, exciting partnership they once envisioned.

Author Melissa Orlov takes a personal interest in her topic as both her husband and her daughter were diagnosed with ADHD.  After 20 +  years, her marriage is intact and her daughter is doing great!

Our Book Publicity Campaign continues with Melissa with an additional  article placed  on sheknows.com just in time for summer romance.

About the Author:

Melissa Orlov is one of the top experts in how ADHD affects relationships and has been writing publicly about the topic since 2007.  She writes the “Your Marriage” column for ADDitude Magazine, is the lead writer on the blog “Thoughts on ADHD and Marriage” at www.adhdmarriage.com, and is a contributing author of the book, Married to Distraction, with Dr. Ned Hallowell and Sue George Hallowell, LICSW. When not writing, Ms. Orlov consults with ADHD-affected couples from around the world, helping them rebalance their relationships and learn to thrive.

Newman Communications and Melissa Orlov continue their  partnership with a book publicity campaign that alerts both the media and general consumer on the importance of treatment for ADHD and help with relationships in general.
