Tell us about the launch of your new book, 101 Ways To BeGossy.
Absolutely! So it’s actually launching in May, it’s available for pre-order now until then. We’re doing a launch event and book signing in Montreal as well during the launch date which is end of May. I’ve always been a fan of business, and I’ve been operating in business for a decade this year (woot woot). This book has been a tribute to my business endeavours as well as ample examples from doing business on an international scale. I’ve been doing business in Dubai, Shanghai, Europe, the US and Canada since I began my journey and I’ve noticed some key elements that are different in each place. So this was a way to put it all together and to teach women who are planning to operate or open their own business how to do so. I was also able to get it published on the first try with a huge publisher in London, UK which I am super happy and proud about and can’t wait to share with you all! It’s been a dream come true to become a published author and definitely the beginning of more projects to come.
Where did you get your inspiration to write this book?
Actually that’s a very interesting question, I was 19 working at a mortgage firm when one of the founders of the company handed me a book by Dale Carnegie that read “How to Win Friends and influence people” I was taken aback by this gesture to which he said : someone handed me this book art your age and it changed my life. So I’m passing the knowledge down to you”. That book was filled with so much social etiquette, business rules and just matter of fact information that seemed so obvious yet was not. I got into personal development around that age and noticed that all books I read came from men in business. I wanted then and there to create a platform and a movement to uplift women and to encourage them. These toolsets that I developed are literally from my own experience as well as interviewing over 1,000+ women in our brand that share these principles.
You mentioned previously that this would be the first of a “Book Series” can you elaborate on this?
So the 101 segment has grown bigger than just in business ; it really is toolsets for life. Here’s where I decided to create this in a Book Series which would outline 101 Ways to BeGossy with spin offs of the original series. I am planning a social etiquette book, a relationship one, and the list truly goes on and on. Think of “Books for Dummies” or “Chicken Soup for the Soul” Goss version. That is my vision with the brand and the series.
Where can people purchase 101 Ways To BeGossy?
it will hit newsstands in Chapters, Indigo and everywhere books are sold end of May. As well as internationally in the coming year. There will also be a 101 Podcast coming out this year, as well as audio book version. Stay tuned and follow the journey on my instagram @RebeccaIPerez
Last words of inspiration?
You can truly make millions, billions and trillions of money doing what you love. I truly believe that women are this generations leaders, inspirations and all around heroes who will save our planet. Focus on one thing, go full throttle on it and do not look back. All your dreams will come true with set execution, an action plan and consistency. You just have to believe it is yours and is on its way to you.
Stay Gossy my beautiful ladies, xx
