You can count on Pear Tree for good old fashioned service!
“Professionalism shouldn’t be defined by a persons paycheck, role, or title. It should be defined by a persons work ethic.” — Janna Cachola
When my husband and I spotted these ancient telephones in Nyack, New York (above), I saw this as an appropriate photo op for Pear Tree Enterprises! I’ve always prided myself in good old fashioned work ethic. My clients have me 100 percent. While I’m working, I am not on my cell phone; I am not texting; and I am certainly not juggling two tasks at once. My clients have my undivided attention when I’m editing or presenting a talk.
But there is something else not many know about Pear Tree. Whoever hires me for my book editing/ghost writing services, gets free time for their birthdays and Christmas. Ask me about it when we work together! How old fashioned is that? I’d say it’s better than a baker’s dozen.
Last month I finished “I Don’t Want to Be Like You,” which holds as strong anti-bullying message. And now am shopping it around to publishers. I’m also working on helping a man write his memoir, doing some writing for R&S Landscaping (newsletters and updating their FaceBook page) (https://www.rscape.com/), and continuing with bookings for my presentations (see below).
