College planning and finance expert, Ed Sanderson, was recently inducted into the National Academy of Best-Selling Authors™ for the performance of his latest book, “Shift Happens.” 

Orlando, Fla. – February 8, 2010 – Ed Sanderson, one of the nation’s leading experts on college planning, was recently inducted into The National Academy of Best-Selling Authors™ after releasing the book, Shift Happens:  America’s PremierExperts® Reveal Their Biggest Secrets to Help You Thrive in the New Economy.  The book was written in collaboration with America’s PremierExperts®, a group of America’s leading experts in various fields of business.  They are celebrity experts who are dedicated to spreading knowledge and awareness in their field of expertise and making significant contributions to their industry and the marketplace as a whole.

Shift Happens was released on November 19, 2009.  On the day of release, the book was a #1 Best-Seller in the Direct Marketing category.  The book also reached the best-seller list in two other categories, the Entrepreneurship category, and the Communications category.

Ed Sanderson authored a chapter in the book titled, “Prosper from the Shift: The Safest Place to Invest.” Ed is recognized as one of America’s PremierExperts® for his expertise and success in helping families through the extremely emotional journey of planning for careers, majors and colleges, as well as working with each family to determine a strategic plan for paying for college without compromising their long term retirement plans.

Ed Sanderson has been in the college-planning field for seven years.  He currently holds the position of COO with CollegePlanningSpecialists.com.  His primary focus is to make sure that families successfully navigate the admission, application and financial aid process.  With the firm’s experience successfully helping more than 2,700 families, Ed Sanderson and the team at College Planning Specialists are now poised to share their knowledge with families all over the country.

The National Academy of Best Selling Authors™ was founded by two attorneys, JW Dicks, Esq. and Nick Nation, Esq. who are also best selling authors and represent authors and experts nationwide.  Both of the attorneys are members of multiple organizations, associations and academies that recognize and honor the best in the business, and they thought a similar organization should be created for Best Selling authors who don’t always get recognition for their accomplishment.  Authors themselves, they recognized that only a very limited number of books made the major New York Times Best Seller list and just like the awards shows put on by the entertainment-based organizations, they wanted to have more categories for authors to be accepted and recognized for their accomplishment. The National Academy of Best Selling Authors™ now honors authors from many of the leading independent best-seller lists.

About Ed Sanderson:

Ed Sanderson has been in the college-planning field for seven years.  He currently holds the position of COO with CollegePlanningSpecialists.com.  His primary focus is to make sure that families successfully navigate the admission, application and financial aid process.  With the firm’s experience successfully helping more than 2,700 families through the extremely emotional journey of planning for careers, majors and colleges, as well as working with each family to determine a strategic plan for paying for college without compromising their long term retirement plans– Ed Sanderson and the team at College Planning Specialists are now poised to share their knowledge with families all over the country.

Ed was born in the inner city of Boston.  At an early age his parents appreciated the importance of education and moved him and his four siblings to a safer suburb outside of the city.  With a lot of hard work, Ed was accepted at Northeastern University.  However, after discovering that his family did not have the resources to help him attend college, Ed felt that no one (including his guidance counselor) completely understood how the financial aid system could have let him attend. Disappointedly, he made his way to southern California to start his own family.

Determined to not let the same misfortune befall his children, Ed set out to understand the intricacies of the admission process along with dissecting the convoluted financial aid formula.  Today, Ed uses his knowledge to educate the families of north San Diego County, where he lives with his wife Arlene, of seventeen years and his three children: Grant, Sierra, and Brock.
