    This book simplifies the real keys to building your success, both internally and financially. It puts teeth into sound marketing ideas and guides you to living from the inside out as your starting point. Clear, easy to understand, and it makes so much sense. Our Certain Way is way more than a pool book! The principles written by Allan and Sandi can be applied to any business. Reading this book will help you build your "posts" in the ground that will act as the foundation of your business. This book will help you maintain your true North and keep the WHY of starting your business at the center of everything you do. It is easy to get distracted by people, opinions, and other businesses which can easily drift you off your path. Our Certain Way is a great guidebook to help you stay on track and make your vision become a reality. A note from Al and Sandi on your Certain Way: We invite you to read a book that could dramatically change your business, not just five years from now but beginning today. We wrote this book to show, through our stories, how we defined our Certain Way and used it as a guidepost to help us build our Legendary Pool Business. Creating a business that truly makes you happy starts with defining your own Certain Way. Because happiness matters. It matters in business, and it matters in life. For a closer look at how to define your own Certain Way, and how to use that to build your business, we encourage you to read "Our Certain Way: Building a Legendary Pool Business." {Available on Amazon} It's the marketing process that we used to build Legendary Escapes into a successful, high-end boutique pool building company. And we've seen it help other business owners turn their dreams in realities, no matter what the field. This book is aimed at our colleagues in the pool industry. It is also for anyone who runs their own business or pursues their own passions, because we've found, happiness in what we do to make money truly does matter. We hope you'll read this book and make an honest assessment of your own life, your own career or business. Finding your truths can be a challenge in this world full of ups, downs and opportunities. We've found it's worth it. Our truth is where our happiness lies, and we think you will find yours there as well.
