About the Author Before launching two successful businesses, Patty Lennon, M.S. enjoyed a 15-year career at one of the world’s largest banks, Citigroup. Promoted to VP at a young age she learned early on that an entrepreneurial attitude creates success in every environment. During her corporate years she received numerous awards for excellence in sales, training, leadership, operations and product development. She has a breadth of experience including leading operational teams through two mergers, training hundreds of employees in product disciplines, managing multi-million dollar technology projects and creating double and triple digit sales growth in every territory she managed. And none of this has been as challenging or rewarding as creating two profitable businesses and raising two children. In 2010 Patty founded Mom Gets A Life ® in response to a need she saw in mothers of young children. Her multi-media company hosts sold out events to cheering crowds throughout the year including the Mom Gets a Business ® Conference, which launched in 2012. In 2013 Patty founded Crowdfund with Ease ™, a training company dedicated to sharing the valuable business growth potential and marketing strategies Patty uncovered while running her own crowdfunding campaign in 2012. Patty is a national speaker and author that inspires audiences to lead and sell with passion and purpose. She is an expert business coach that partners with individuals and groups that want to build a business plan that works, learn how to balance dreaming with action to achieve true success and produce transformational events that create real sales.

Go on Kickstarter/Indiegogo for better info
Was excited to receive this book, but all the information is really basic and doesn't help much. You can find better information on the crowdfunding websites themselves (Kickstarter or Indiegogo for example) or via all other myriad of online articles.
