Craig Andrews is the Principal Ally and founder of marketing agency allies4me. Using a proven method that mimics the stages of courtship, allies4me helps companies find strangers and convert them into high-paying customers. An eight-stage Customer Value Journey is the framework that leads someone from first contact to post purchase.

Add value at each and every stage of the journey. A First-Time Offer (FTO) is like a coffee date. It's a low-commitment and low-risk way to test the relationship. When you do this well, your prospect starts asking you to "close the deal." This relational framework builds trust faster. It drives revenue faster. And it strengthens customer loyalty after the purchase. Craig and the allies4me team are consummate students of psychology and use these insights to supercharge sales engines for clients.

In this episode of Chasing the Insights, I talk to award-winning author Emily Bernath.

Emily talks to us about how becoming an author has been a great entrepreneurial journey for her.

Emily Bernath began writing out of her passion for women's ministry and desire to be a light to survivors of sexual assault. As a rape survivor herself, Emily's life quickly hit rock bottom. She found herself confronting God in anger, asking him what on earth she did to deserve such treatment. In this season of darkness, Emily was reintroduced to church through a group of friends who pointed her to God's light and love. While she had a hardened heart toward God at the time, she knew those friends saw her and loved her in a way that she didn't know how to herself, so she went.

Through rediscovering faith and an identity in Christ, Emily has found healing from the abuse and freedom from the shame and condemnation in this world. She lives to be a resource for other sexual assault survivors and help them find that same freedom. She advocates survivors by teaching classes to other advocates about the spiritual impact of sexual assault and by serving on the board of Reveal to Heal International.

Emily is the award-winning author of both Broken Lenses: Identifying Your Truth in a World of Lies and Broken Lenses Volume 2: Seeing Others' Value in a World of Division. Before beginning her career as an author, she earned a bachelor's degree in chemistry and a master's degree in business administration. She currently resides in Salt Lake City. When she's not writing, she enjoys drinking good coffee, playing softball, getting involved at her local church, and connecting with other people and hearing their stories.
