About Stephanie Chandler

Stephanie Chandler previously worked in the fast-paced Silicon Valley in a variety of roles including software sales, technical training and technical support. When she developed an ulcer before her 30th birthday, she knew it was time for a complete lifestyle change.

Following much contemplation and a year of planning, Chandler fled corporate America in 2003 and opened a bookstore in Sacramento, California (she sold the store in 2007).

Owning a retail store gave her a hands-on education in the realities of small business marketing. Chandler began studying internet marketing strategies and quickly brought her store website into the top three results on Google, giving her business a competitive edge. A passion for internet marketing was born.

Chandler launched BusinessInfoGuide.com, a directory of resources for entrepreneurs, in 2004. She is also founder and CEO of Authority Publishing, a custom publishing and marketing company.

Stephanie Chandler is an author of several books:

LEAP! 101 Ways to Grow Your Business (Career Press, September 2009)

The Author's Guide to Building an Online Platform: Leveraging the Internet to Sell More Books (Quill Driver Press, May 2008)

From Entrepreneur to Infopreneur: Make Money with Books, eBooks and Information Products (John Wiley & Sons, December 2006)

The Business Startup Checklist and Planning Guide: Seize Your Entrepreneurial Dreams! (Aventine Press, September 2005)

Chandler has been featured in numerous media outlets including Entrepreneur Magazine, BusinessWeek, Inc.com, and More Magazine. She is also a frequent speaker at small business events and on the radio.
