Shopping Tips For Last Minute Shoppers
Book review

      One thing we stress on the Senior Connection radio show is teaching our listeners to be educated consumers. So, in my continuous effort to provide good information to our audience, I bring to you some shopping info I thought might be useful. Gift giving should be personalized and individual. While I have always enjoyed receiving books for gifts, I often recommend certain books that provide practical information for the recipient. One such book is Attention to Detail: A Gentlemen's Guide to Professional Appearance and Conduct.  The book is written by local author, Clinton T. Greenleaf III.  This book is perfect for the special young man that is entering the workforce and is faced with the multiple experiences of being prepared for that all-important encounter. While I have struggled with many of the members on my Christmas gift list, my business bound son and my college bound nephew have created a special challenge.

     Greenleaf's book has received national press and continues to be promoted. Clinton Greenleaf was referred to as a "business-etiquette expert" by the Wall Street Journal and has appeared in papers throughout the country. This book is timeless and will not go out of style. Attention to Detail: A Gentleman's Guide to Professional Appearance and Conduct makes a great gift for someone who wants to give a high school senior the edge on a college interview or a job-seeker an advantage in a highly competitive market. The book is geared toward the 18-28 year old male who is about to enter the work force or is changing jobs. (We have at least three of those in our family).

Copies of the book can be ordered for $12.95 plus $2.00 shipping and handling by sending a check to Greenleaf Enterprises, P.O. box 291, Chesterland, Ohio 44026.
