Haley Price shares life principles with positive outlook in her new book.

Southwestern Company | Haley Price

Though she has been officially off of the Southwestern bookfield for nearly 5 years, Haley Price is still selling books.   Only now, she’s written and illustrated the books that she’s selling. 

She is the author and illustrator of Today is the Best Day of My Life.  This book contains bite-sized life principles, presented in a light and simple way, that are intended to help guide people toward a more productive, more meaningful, and more fun life.  She tailored a version of this book specifically towards Southwestern students, and it was used for the first time in their sales kits in the summer of 2009.
 
Haley sold books for three summers (2003-2005).  “Selling books was hands-down the best decision I’ve ever made,” Haley says.  She worked under a good friend and mentor Wade Floyd in the Eagle Blitz organization, and it was in dealing with the challenges of selling door-to-door that Haley discovered her natural fondness for encouraging and uplifting others.  She describes her experience on the bookfield as “the most inclusive life-training you could ever get”.

While not writing, Haley works in global advertising sales for Microsoft in New York, NY.  Through her experience with Southwestern and beyond, she has learned the importance of having a positive attitude, working hard for what you want, and believing in your dreams. 

Haley continues to reference her days slinging books from house to house; and cannot wait until a book kid comes knocking on her door, “I’m going to give that kid the best pony story ever!”
