Linda Connie has been named president and CEO of Cunning Visions,
Inc., the self help empire started by the late Jim Cunningham,
who committed suicide three years ago.
Connie has sold Cunning Visions books, videos and other educational
materials to more than six hundred schools throughout the
country, as the popular author achieves even greater fame
with each passing moment.
“It really is an honor that the share-holders have elevated
me to this position,” said Connie, now settled comfortably
in her office at the pristine new Cunning Visions headquarters
in downtown Middlesex.
Cunningham’s two books, “Attitudinal Beliefs” and
“Cunning Visions of Love” have sold more than four
million copies each.
“This is the nineties. A new decade is upon us and it
is time to change the way people think. The fear survivors
are growing in number worldwide. This is only the beginning.
Jim’s legacy will live on, and I am proud to perpetuate that.”
Connie has written two books on her own, “Ego Reflections”
and “Love or Shove?”. Both have been bestsellers.
Connie next has her sights designed on another new frontier:
the internet.
“The internet is the future, and Cunning Visions will
soon be launching its own website.”
When Connie is asked about her knack for trend-spotting, she
smiles knowingly, like a woman who can’t be bothered with
explaining her secrets to success.
“People ask me all the time, what is next for Linda Connie?
I’ll tell you this much: Linda Connie is just about to pump
up the jam.”
And with that, Connie cranks up the stereo in her office,
flooding the building with the sound of Technotronic’s smash
hit, “Pump Up The Jam”.
This is the title of Connie’s new book, aimed at the teen
market, scheduled for release this Christmas. Pump it up,
indeed.
