P.J. Ochlan narrates this well-researched in-depth look at how to build your network without attending a series of mundane events and pressing business cards into the hands of strangers. He uses a rapid, crisp style that mimics the fast pace of the business content he is delivering. Moving smoothly between anecdotes and research studies, he even maintains the flow when he's reading the web addresses of downloadable worksheets. His professional approach is in the manner of a seminar leader, which is essentially what the author seems to intend for the audiobook. Ochlan helps listeners make sense of a complicated set of rationale that explains how to create clusters, meet like-minded people, and achieve their goals.

The readers can't compensate for the unbearably pompous prose style of this extended parable about corporate politics and strategy.

Henslee’s warm, unhurried narration makes listeners feel like the next success story could be theirs.
Barbara Henslee narrates with an intimate, upbeat delivery and a sunny Southern warmth that feels like being personally recruited to the Mary Kay empire. Her voice suits the material perfectly, drawing listeners into a bygone era when women built empires through gatherings around kitchen tables and on front porches, long before they could open their own bank accounts. Henslee never oversells, just gently persuades, mirroring the company’s own quiet pitch to millions of women that economic independence and personal transformation were within reach. The balanced treatment of the realities of multilevel marketing, alongside the truly inspirational story of founder Mary Kay Ash, make this a compelling listen for anyone curious about the often mocked world of direct sales.
