Unfortunately, her own services have a LOT to be desired. Don't fall for her like I did. I'm out $70 and have one of the worst resumes I've ever read in return. And she didn't even respond to one email I sent to her. Shame shame shame.

Enjoy her advice to some degree, but please, don't Google her or fall into her trap.

You're right. It does help to have a list nearby when writing. I have a dandy one printed out and taped at my side on my printer to which I refer when writing clients' resumes, career bios, leadership briefs, LinkedIn profiles, etc.

Strong action verbs, in themselves, can prompt me to write better. “Championed” is one of my favorites, too.

Using a simple word like “doubled”, as you suggest, will capture attention more readily than an overused word like “grew”.
