What people are saying about Sheri:

"Sheri Koones is one of the savviest, hardworking authors I know. She came to work with me before the launch of her book, PREFABULOUS, because she wanted to take her public speaking to the next level. Along the way, she found her true "speaking" voice and now clearly communicates her passion for her subject to audiences who are now clamoring to hear it. With audiences increasingly wanting to know about living "green", her topics are right on the money. AND, if you want your audience on it's feet at the end of a speech, you can't go wrong with Sheri!"

- Ginny Pulos, Ginny Pulos Communications INC.



"Sheri was the Keynote Speaker at an annual awards event for my association (ASID). She was entertaining, shared her brilliant expertise and was a gracious guest after her talk, signing books and connecting with industry members. Participants walked away with knowledge about pre-fab housing and were enlightened about the possibilities within their industry."

- Jane Pollak, Nationally Recognized Speaker, Certified Coach, Author

"I wanted to take the time to extend my appreciation to Sheri for the work she has done publicizing the systems built industry. When it comes to home building books I think of Sheri Koones! Importantly she has taken the time to learn about the different aspects of the industry and always finds the best examples. I have really enjoyed and much-admired all her projects". 

- Scott Rouleau, Rouleau Communications



"Sheri has produced great products that have helped to promote the benefits of systems-built housing. Sheri has done her homework with every book produced to ensure the facts are accurate and the quality top notch. She has worked with a number of my members to obtain the best examples of systems-built homes for use in the books. Sheri goes above and beyond in her development of new titles. It has been a pleasure for me and the members of the Building Systems Councils to work with her over the years."
