How to get you book published and become a New Your Times best selling author with New York Times best selling author Daven Michaels
How to get you book published and become a New Your Times best selling author with New York Times best selling author Daven Michaels In His Words: I embarked on my first entrepreneurial endeavor at the tender age of 15 when I began designing clothing for local musicians. I don’t know why I started so early, but I was immediately hooked. I had a knack for music industry fashion and, before long, I was designing clothing for some of the biggest bands of the 80s and 90s. As my enthusiasm for clothing design ebbed, I started looking for a new challenge. Again on a whim, I decided to start a communications company. It was completely from scratch. All I had was a telephone (landline of course!), and a desk with a chair. Despite those humble beginnings, I was able to expand my company into 60 different U.S. cities within 5 years. Buyout offers were flooding in, so I decided to sell the business to a public company in exchange for equity. Soon after, my new parent company was also bought out. I ended up with an impressive nest egg and an entire universe of opportunity. With my newfound financial freedom, I returned to my passion for music and entertainment. I actually became the biggest electronic music event producer in the U.S., throwing parties for 15,000 to 20,000 people a night. I rolled that success into a successful career as a recording artist… and then a much longer career as a music and television producer, again working with some of the biggest bands in the world. After the turn of the millennium, my entrepreneurial brain latched onto a tiny, but powerful idea. Always a fan of tech and innovation, I was inspired by the rise of online entrepreneurship. My vision was to use the internet to connect business owners with a global labor pool. So I founded 123Employee, an outsourcing company with work centers in the Philippines. We were able to offer an affordable, agile workforce to independent entrepreneurs and small business owners. 123Employee was technically a brick and mortar business, but I really wanted the freedom to pursue passion projects and travel the world. So I set up systems that would allow me to manage everything remotely. And even after I had 1,000 employees on the books across 3 continents, I was able to operate the entire business with just my laptop and cell phone from anywhere in the world. As I traveled more, and met other aspiring entrepreneurs around the world, I realized I had a passion for other small business owners and entrepreneurs reach their dreams as well. So I started public speaking and was soon sharing the stage with some of the biggest names in business. I wrote several books, including my biggest hit Outsource Smart which landed on multiple Best Seller lists including The New York Times, the Los Angeles Times, along with becoming an Amazon #1 Best Seller. I even founded an entire association (Virtual Entrepreneurs Association) dedicated to providing resources and support for entrepreneurs and small business owners at any stage of their careers. For the past 6+ years I have also been a Cryptopreneur & Investor. Digital assets and the innovations of Decentralized Finance (DeFi) are revolutionizing the way we use money, and I’m thrilled to be at the forefront. My currently Executive Chairman of CurrentC Group, a power provider to the Crypto Mining industry and Michaels Press, a US based, boutique Publishing House.

How to become an outdoor influencer with Author and outdoor adventurer Alex Schnee
How to become an outdoor influencer with Author and outdoor adventurer Alex Schnee In Her Words: Believe it or not, I didn’t always love the outdoors. After growing up right by Glacier National Park and being forced to head up into the mountains with my family every weekend, I got out of the Treasure State as soon as I could. It wasn’t until I had traveled the world (over 50 countries!) that I realized how essential it was to explore nature and how it could transform. Getting outside helped me battle an eating disorder by helping me realize it was more important to view my body as how it allowed me to hike amazing mountains rather than how it looked. I kayaked down the Amazon in Peru, hiked to the Everest Base Camp, and ran into a bear in my home park of Glacier. It also gave me the confidence to start my own blog and business so I could help others make the most of their time outdoors. In order to achieve that mission, I set out to provide information that people actually need to know when they visit national parks, set out on the trail, and how to follow Leave No Trace principles when they do. I also started a Facebook group where I could help those looking to escape the 9-5 find work that gets them out and that they could find more meaningful. If you have any questions about getting outside, don’t hesitate to ask! I hope to make your time in the outdoors as worthwhile as it has been to me.
