Marian Neilson and I are the authors of Certify and Sell: Your Guide to Certification and Supplier Diversity. Almost by accident, we became experts at getting our business certified as a Women Owned Small Business through various states and third party organizations. This led to helping other achieve certification, then offering seminars and workshops regionally. We've taken all we've learned in the last ten years and compiled it into a single reference book to help others on their certification journey.
