Paul Sokol has been using Keap since it was called Infusionsoft back in 2008. He even worked for Infusionsoft directly for five years: first as a Success Coach (launching over 200 new customers on the software) and then as a Product Manager. This book is a potent distillation of automation fundamentals that Paul has discovered through his tens of thousands of hours of in-the-trenches implementation.
