An irrepressible entrepreneur, Maria Marsala entered the business world at age 14, landed on Wall Street at age 17, and shattered the glass ceiling at age 21. Fiercely determined and keenly insightful, she became a bond trader when female executives were as rare as pink diamonds. Maria spent the next 20 years streamlining corporate operations, generating profits, and dispensing valuable advice. Her gifts as a mentor transformed secretaries into traders.
In 1998, brimming with over 25 years of business experience, Maria founded Elevating Your Business, a business growth and systems company that helps high-achieving CEOs, presidents, and executives attract higher-end clients. She pioneered the “Business Checkup Assessment”, a simple process used to determine the “stuck” areas of a business as well as the areas that deserve a “hurrah!” Maria customizes solutions for each client’s unique obstacles, helping them realize a business and lifestyle they only imagined. After many requests to share her insights about what small business owners can learn from big business, she created the “Corporate Secrets Marketing™” program. Her concepts have been quoted regularly in prestigious media outlets including: Money Magazine, Jim Cramer’s “The Street”, Women’s Day Magazine, Market Watch, Advisor Max, and The Bottom Line. Her strategies are mentioned in several books including: “Six Steps to Free Publicity” by Marcia Yudkin, “Streetwise Small Business Book of Lists” edited by Gene Marks, “The Woman’s Advantage Calendar”, and “Find Your Inner Betty” by Tanner Stransky.
Is Your Home Really Safe?
How What You Don’t Know Could Hurt You (And Your Family!)
Many people set their burglar alarms at night and slip quietly off to sleep, thinking their home and family are protected. To burglars and other dangerous criminals, who constantly devise new ways to defeat security systems and devices, your home remains as accessible as it would be if you left the front door open.
What’s worse, the manufacturers of alarms and other security products know that criminals have the knowledge to overcome their devices, but they sell them to you anyway. The buyer must beware, and in this case, what you don’t know could kill you.
That’s where residential security expert Alan Young comes in. He’ll give your listeners the tools they need to make their homes really secure. Armed with these tips from Alan, your listeners will be armed with the critical information they need to ensure their safety everywhere from home to dorm to a hotel room.

Cancer Survivor Helps to Eliminate Embarrassment by Helping Other Cancer Patients
Christy Borgeld said “Never giving up and pushing forward will unlock all the potential we are capable of.” And that is exactly what Brenda did. Despite having cancer and undergoing chemo, she pressed forward. She hated and was embarrassed by the treatment gowns and did something about it…she made her own! Now, she makes them for other cancer patients called Hug Wraps.
Brenda Jones felt as if her world had ended when she was diagnosed with breast cancer back in October 2008. Being forced to put on a drab, generic, embarrassing traditional hospital gown every time she went in for treatment only made the experience worse. So with a flash of inspiration — and a crash-course in sewing — she decided to do something about it. Much to her surprise, the kimono-style wrap she designed to give herself some dignity in the waiting room started garnering requests from other patients. Today? She’s not only recovered, but she can hardly keep up with the demand for her homemade Hug Wraps from cancer patients all over the world.
