Red daisy''Real You Incorporated' a book written by Columbus business woman Kaira Sturdivant-Rouda features a number of successful central Ohio business women.  The book published by Wiley & Sons, Inc. is subtitled "8 Essentials For Women Entrepreneurs."

Real You Incorporated the website has lots more about the book which is now available in bookstores locally and online. "Real You Incorporated is written by Kaira Sturdivant-Rouda the President of Real Living, a real estate brokerage which is rapidly expanding across the US.

I got an opportunity to read an unedited version of the book, Real You Incorported.  The  Central Ohio region of  Real Living, is known as Real Living HER.  As locals know HER Realtors (as the company was known) has been the Central Ohio market leader for decades.  Part of the story in 'Real You Incorporated' is the three Ohio real estate companies that became Real Living in 2002 and how that brand was created.

Interwoven is Kaira's personal story working in advertising, public relations, the media and a national company before becoming involved with the real estate company her father-in-law founded. 

The author uses the real stories of sixteen successful women entrepreneurs, some in Central Ohio. The book is not just about real estate.  Restaurants, fashion, beauty, exercise, public relations, ice cream...a business coach....

Readers can use the book and it's twenty four life lessons to step by step find a brand with in yourself based on your passions and dreams.

Red daisy in a green vaseDid you know? 

The book marks promoting the upcoming book 'Real You Incorporated, 8 Essentials for Women Entrepeneurs', contain Did You Know? questions such as: 

"Women make up 51% of the U.S. population, but make 85% of the purchasing decisions - making American women the largest national economy on Earth."  (USAToday)  

 

I am already reading the book by local author and business woman Kaira Sturdivant Rouda.

No.  How could you know that? Just a couple of people know that... the person who signed for the manuscript when they sent it over... from the administrative office, my blogging friend from the office, my boss... I just had to tell a few people... but I am sworn to secrecy about the contents of the book...  I can't disclose what's in the book until after it is published!

When she came back from Inman Connect (a gathering for the real estate industry) Kaira asked me via email if I would read the book! I wonder if Kaira ran into my Fairy Blogmother Frances Flynn Thorsen at Inman Connect...  I think Kaira and Frances may have been on the same panel... 

I can't review Real You Incorporated  until February 15, 2008 and even then I am not sure that I know how to review a book.... but what's the point of doing anything if you don't blog about it... (what have I become?)

At a company meeting (Real Living HER in the Central Ohio market) Kaira talked about her soon to be published book a little and did an exercise from the book... yes, while not a hokey work book... it is interactive.  At the company meeting we did one of the first suggested exercises... not strenuous in the least.  

Reviewing my boss's, boss's, boss's book... gosh that makes me nervous.  I don't really know if that is how it works...  the boss's boss's boss thing.... Kaira is the President of Real Living.
