The best business management book I have read, 11 Oct 2004
By BookDog - Published on Amazon.com
This review is from: If You Don't Have Big Breasts, Put Ribbons on Your Pigtails: And Other Lessons I Learned from My Mom (Mass Market Paperback)
I hold an MBA and I read lots of business and management books. This is the best book that I have come across. Fun and light, this book still has the type of advice any mom would give: sound, practical and very common sense (which is not very common). Great stories and straight to the point analysis and advice. I have found inspiration that has already helped me do things that I would not have done otherwise. Thanks Barbara!

WHAT A GREAT BOOK!, 16 Jun 2004
By In 2 Design "scottisnice" - Published on Amazon.com
This review is from: If You Don't Have Big Breasts, Put Ribbons on Your Pigtails: And Other Lessons I Learned from My Mom (Mass Market Paperback)
This book has changed my life. Yes, her story is incredible, but the lesson is simple--you succeed by being who you are and figuring out what it is that makes you unique. Since reading this book, I've had a new approach to my business and my life and quite honestly feel so invigorated and excited by possibility. I've been sharing this book with lots of people and each person I give it to LOVES it. I highly recommend this book to anyone. Not only do you learn something, it is a hilarious read. Great summer book.

If "You Don't Have big Breasts..." encourages listener to "use what you've got"!, 12 Sep 2005
By Teresa G. Wheeler - Published on Amazon.com
This review is from: If You Don't Have Big Breasts, Put Ribbons in Your Hair (Audio CD)
After having read the companion book and using some of it's content in presentations and marketing meetings, I have been delighted to be able to listen to Barbara's advice as I drive from appointment to appointment. Barbara's words and common sense have proved to be very motivational for me as well as down right delightful. I would recommend this CD for any woman who is looking for creative, common sense ways to approach her business world and her clients. The bonus here is Barbara's ability to put a positive spin on mundane events, to see the cup as half full, and the benefits of thinking outside the box.
In that her advice is practical, you will find yourself trying to apply her principles to challenges that you face daily with clients, projects, deadlines, and co-workers!
