Interview with Chandler Bolt from Self-Publishing School [Labor Day Replay]

“You want to know what I can do for you?  Here’s my book…”If you want to be seen as an expert — and get clients as a result — write a book.Seriously.  It’s a pretty simple equation…Published Book = Instant Credibility.And at this point, if it LOOKS professionally published, it does the job.  Yes, for people who pay attention, there is a credibility boost for going through a major publisher.  But that’s also a huge headache that delays the process for months or years, and requires you to give up creative control (often making the book less effective as a marketing tool).But how do you do it?On Wednesday, at 1 PM Eastern, I’m co-hosting a free workshop on How to Write and Publish Your Book in 90 Days with Matt Emmorey of Self-Publishing School.>>> Reserve your spot to join us liveWith that coming up…Plus the fact that it’s the Labor Day holiday in the US…I figured instead of recording a new episode on the holiday, I’d use this as an opportunity to share this interview I did with Chandler Bolt, the founder of Self-Publishing School…On how business books can be used to generate millions in revenue.Here’s my interview with Chandler Bolt from Self-Publishing School.If you’re serious about getting your book published FAST (so it can start getting you clients), make sure to join us for that free workshop on Wednesday.Yours for bigger breakthroughs,Roy Furr
