or many in this fi eld, marketing may not rank as a favorite task.
After all, you became a massage therapist or bodyworker as a way
to help others live healthier lives, you might say, not to "sell" yourself.
But the reality is, you can't do one without doing the other. Potential
clients won't know you're out there unless you tell them, and ABMP gives
you the tools to easily do just that.
