One of the major driving economic foundations of all good investing and business is demographics.
Recent messages have looked at the power of thinking small. One reasons why this is good advice is that the largest wealthiest demographic wave… perhaps ever… is making smaller moves.
These are our New Year’s Day fireworks we enjoyed… nature aflame in our back yard in Smalltown USA. See how this trend can bring extra profit to you.
On New Year’s Eve we worked from 6:00 am until 6:30pm… watched from our lanai the fireworks bursting above our nearby small town. We wrapped this up with some quiet reading and by 9:30 we were in bed. On New Year’s Day by 6:39:29 AM EST I had finished a long meditation and my yoga and had answered my first email.
46 minutes and 2 seconds into 2013 I had my first order and by January 1, 2013 9:18:34 AM EST I had my first 25 orders and had earned my first thousand dollars of the year.
Sounds like we are working hard… but we are not. We love what we do and prefer being at home. Our work is our passion and is fun and fulfilling to us.
I have always believed that a big part of Merri’s and my success is that we are so common… so much like all the other 60 million baby boomers. Our secret to success is to “go do things” that we love. When the activity works well we write about it and because we are so similar to so many… the process works. What we love so too do others. This process makes us look like leaders but really we are followers… of a common heart.
Now our feeling is to stay at home… in small towns… away from the maddening crowd… but still busy with a multi dimensional business and in touch.
If our feelings are spot on… then expect a huge wave that can earn income for you.
A recent Reuters article by Mark Miller entitled “Retirees Moving But Not Very Far” explains a powerful demographic forces we can learn from when it says: When Harvey and Cora Alter decided to move away from Washington, D.C., for their retirement, friends were surprised to hear where they were going.
The Alters weren’t even crossing a state line. They would move just 30 miles north of Rockville, Maryland, where they had raised two daughters, to Frederick — a town of about 65,000 on the outskirts of the Washington-Baltimore metro area near the Catoctin Mountains.
Relocation in retirement often brings cross-country or big north-south moves to mind, but very few seniors actually go very far. In 2010, just 1.6 percent of retirees between age 55 and 65 moved across state lines, according to an analysis of U.S. Census Bureau data by Richard Johnson, director of retirement policy research at The Urban Institute.
And even among retirees who do move across state lines, migration patterns have shifted in recent years, Johnson says. In 1990, more than one in four retirees between age 55 to 65 who did relocate across a state line moved to Florida — and seven of the top cities for migrating retirees were in the sunshine state. Florida remains the most popular destination, but it only attracted one in seven of retirees between 2005 and 2010.
The increasing popularity of the short-distance move may be a result of the many advantages the strategy offers: Retirees who stay an hour or two from where they worked and raised their children can cut their costs while staying near their friends, cultural events, major airports and medical facilities. Moving outside the metro area means they don’t have to compete on housing prices with people who need to be closer to the city for their jobs.
Depending on local real estate values, it’s a move that can allow seniors to extract substantial equity from the real estate portion of their assets. Many bought their homes decades ago at prices far below even today’s depressed market —- and they are the most likely age group to be mortgage-free: 65 percent of homeowners over age 65 were mortgage-free in 2009, according to the Census Bureau.
The results can be eye-popping when the downshifting involves a move away from a pricey real estate market, according to a review of median home prices from Sperling’s BestPlaces (bestplaces.net/), a research firm that analyzes U.S. communities.
For example, a retiree could sell a home in Montclair, New Jersey, near New York City, where the median home price is $560,800 and move 90 miles to Allentown, Pennsylvania (median home price: $135,400) — pocketing about $425,000 in extracted equity, assuming a mortgage-free transaction and excluding closing costs. Likewise, a 40-mile move from Highland Park, Illinois (median home price: $542,000) to nearby Woodstock ($205,800) would generate around $336,000 in extracted equity.
Property tax savings could sweeten the deal in some situations. Sperling points out that the Montclair house would face property taxes of around $11,300 a year, while the Allentown home would carry property taxes of only $2,580 — an additional savings of almost $9,000 a year.
Perhaps best of all, federal tax law lets you keep as much as $250,000 of the gain tax-free if you’re single, and up to $500,000 for couples. That money can be used any way you like; the rule applies as long as you’ve lived in the home you’re selling for at least two of the last five years.
The cost of living in exurbia is far lower, too. BestPlaces data on prices for housing, food, transportation, utilities and health care show that it’s 19 percent less expensive to live in Frederick than Rockville. Median home prices are 33 percent lower, and property taxes are 10 percent lower.

Demographic changes are one of the most important foundations of economic change… watch where the retirees in America, Canada and Europe are going. Tracking their moves can enhance profits in your business and investing.
Merri and I were well ahead (perhaps too far ahead!) of the curve beginning 17 years ago in Ecuador.
See why we believe in extra real estate value and business potential for retirees in Ecuador
We have also have enjoyed being ahead of the curve beginning 20 years ago by buying into Smalltown USA.
See why we believe in extra potential from publishing in Smalltown USA now.
We look forward to sharing both these demographic economic storms and more in 2013 with you.

Writers & Publishers Course
Profits can be kindled with this question… which would you rather have… 12% of $10 or 70% of $3?The math to this question brings an obvious answer and creates a business opportunity.
Merri and I have loved our Kindles since they day they became available. Now you’ll see why we love them even more and how that passion can create profit and opportunity for you!
Plus you don’t even have to own a Kindle to take advantage of these profits and opportunities!
Growing numbers of “indies” (short for independent) writers are using Kindle to sell their publications.
There is a great story about a 26 year old who is cutting out BIG publishers by publishing direct to the Kindle.
She is writing vampire stories and is one of the top selling “indie” writers on the Kindle store.
This means she does not have a publishing deal. This allows her to keep 70% of her book sales. According to one article I read she is selling up to 100,000 electronic books a month.
That is impressive when you consider that it only takes a few tens of thousands of book sales at launch to get on the New York Times bestselling list.
The heck with lists! How about just writing and publishing? Her formula is to lower her sales price to between $.99 to $3.00. This compares to the typically $9.99 to $12.99 for other books on Kindle.
The lower price increases volume…. plus this cuts out a publisher, distributor and book store who normally absorb up to 88% of the income created by a book.
There are no printing costs, no shelf space, no inventory, no postal delivery. Most of the publishing expenses are eliminated.
The writer keeps 70%.
Amazon keeps 30%.
A typical writer earning 12% of the book sales makes about $1.20 per $9.99 book sale. A Kindle writer makes $2.10 on a $3 sale.
Working as a group home worker she wrote novels in her spare time.
In 2010, she began self-publishing them as e-books. Within a year she sold over a a million copies and earned two million dollars.
This captured the attention of St. Martin’s Press and she received a conventional publishing contract for four books, at a price of two million dollars.
Previously one of the best selling Kindle writers was J.A. Konrath, but it was assumed he was popular because he previously had a publishing deal and so already had notoriety. That was not the case with this girl (her name is Amanda Hocking), who published stories on her blog before turning to Kindle. In fact, out of the top 25 best-selling indie Kindle writers, only 6 were previously affiliated with a publishing house.
Imagine this… 26 year Amanda Hocking… a 100,000 sales at $2 average brings in $200,000 a month and her earnings are $140,000 a month.
That is a great income.
Hocking did all this from the small town of Austin, Minnesota. 2010 population 24,017 people.
Not every writer will do that well. Most of us don’t need to!
This is a new exciting era for writers. This is exciting news for those of us living in small towns. This is not so good for the big city publishers and big bookstores who do not adapt.
However like small bookstores, small publishers have great opportunity as well.
Smart… publishers who use this technology gain the following benefits.
* Printing, shipping and disposal (of unsold books) costs eliminated.
* Shelf space unlimited and almost free with no capital costs.
* There is increased sales volume. Kindle owners buy more books than print readers and will spend weekly to get new chapters rather than entire books.
There are three keys to success in this type of writing and publishing. We have repeatedly stressed them at our websites and in our business courses. Focus…. focus…. focus.
Buyers of books fall into niches.
Those who succeed are those who focus on a niche and create trust with those readers.
Take Merri’s and my publishing business as an example. Our readers know that the site content is about leading edge ideas related to fighting inflation, global investing, having micro businesses and being free to live anywhere.
These websites create a community of like minded souls around this niche.
Once a writer has become branded and has a list of readers, it is easy to expand by adding authors and related topics, and editing the books of other authors, knowing that they can help them sell their books.
Some amazing websites and businesses will be built and Kindle will be the search engine… the jumping off point is finding the original readers who will become the core of your list!
I plan to also take advantage of Kindle publishing and have a great head start (our list) want to share what I learn in the process with you.
Technology especially favors small publishers today. Portable computers, the internet, wireless access, on demand printing smart phones and electronic readers all create enormous new potential for small publishers.
Let me share an example created by the nuclear events created by the Tsunami in Japan. Merri and I had unfortunately been near Chernobyl when it melted down. We suffered from radiation exposure and have been in the past two decades learning how to cure ourselves. We know numerous ways to help readers protect against excessive radiation.
The day of the nuclear event I spent the entire day writing and by the second day of Japan’s disaster had already published the report “7 Steps to Protect Against Radiation Poisoning“. My publication was the first to help in the this way and was available on Kindle just one day after the nuclear disaster. No big publisher could close to even thinking up a publication… much less publishing a valid report that fast.
This is why I am making one last special offer for our self publishing course. When I announced this opportunity a large publisher wanted to put this course online. That deal was concluded and they felt the existing price was too low so ask me to raise the course fee from $299 to $499.
I have not yet made that increase but shortly plan for the price to rise to $499.
You can save $597 and $200 extra… with this special offer.
If you take advantage of this offer there is one more benefit… you’ll also receive Self Publishing 202… How to Publish on Kindle.
As shown above I have already started learning the ropes on how to publish via Amazon.com and Kindle. I’ll have been adding additions to our self publishing course… Self “Publishing 202… Tidbits on Kindle.”
Those who take advantage of the special offer below will receive this new addition at no extra charge.
See below a special offer that save $597 normally… $200 extra now through the end of this week and get the Kindle course all for $299.

Embrace the Predictions of Disaster Zone.
Do less… Gain more as global trouble unfolds.
Online Writers and Publishers Course “Self Fulfilled – How to be a Self Publisher”
Self Fulfilled Special $299
The last few years have seen the evaporation of many dreams. The global recession… rising gas prices… massive home foreclosures… a weakened, falling US dollar and rising unemployment wiped out many hopes, ambitions and plans.
Who knows what could come next. A double dip recessions, stagflation… massive job layoffs… more federal, state, county and city debt and government burdens on our lives. Demolished Medicare and health benefits. Rampant inflation.
Despite these disasters and the risk of more, one exclusive group of small businesses have prospered. They will continue to do so, regardless of the unexpected, abroad or at home.
In fact these businesses will do even better… gain higher respect and earn more profit as they help ease disasters… because these business are small publishers who can help their readers deal with global and local problems as they unfold.
Small self publishers are in a win – win situation for many reasons.
The massive expansion of information is overwhelming the world. There is so much new data coming in that the public cannot keep pace. This forces us all to be more discriminating… which is the worst thing that can happen to big publishers who rely on broadband where its best to send one message to huge groups.
The huge inflow of new knowledge favors broadband which works best sending many different messages to much smaller groups.
Self publishers have also gained an advantage as most of the big booksellers are going broke or in a slump. Barnes & Noble has had enormous challenges. 2010 Books-A-Million comparable store sales dropped nearly 5 percent and net income fell 35 percent. Borders has filed for bankruptcy and shut down along with 798 B. Dalton mall outlet bookstores and over 180 of the Waldenbook units. They are gone. This vacuum creates a special opportunity for small self publishers.
This is why you should see three case studies below to help you be free, secure and fulfilled as a Self Publisher.
After these stories see how to get a second course worth $299 plus three bonuses when you enroll in our course “Self -Fulfilled – How to be a Self Publisher” on how to develop your own specific publishing business that can bring you everlasting wealth.

Here are the three stories that show how the rise of the small self publisher began. This knowledge can bring you secure income for the rest of your life. More importantly these stories can help you be happy and fulfilled and safe in this ever changing world. With these case studies you help make the world a better place… in a small way perhaps… but better as you gain everlasting wealth.
Lets share how to create a fortune in a rewarding career.
The first of these three stories contains the seeds of prosperity, richness, freedom and satisfaction for you.
The story begins with an excerpt from the December 16, 2010 Economist Article entitled “Rise of the image men” begins: (bolds are mine) that says: As they prepared to face their second big strike in four years, America’s coal-mining bosses knew they had to do something about the newspapers. It was 1906—a time of rising resentment against robber-baron capitalism and the heyday of muckraking “yellow journalism”. During the previous strike the trade unions had fostered good relations with newspapermen and won themselves a sympathetic press. To help put their side of the story, the mining bosses turned to a former journalist, Ivy Lee. Lee was to pioneer new methods—and, in the process, create a new industry.
Lee observed that the rise of national newspaper chains and syndicated journalism in America since the 1880s, combined with the extension of the franchise, had profoundly changed society. Now, for the first time, there was something that could accurately be called “public opinion”, a shared consciousness and conversation across the country—and it was to be feared. Lee noted how the emerging mass media were acting as the conduit for the anti-capitalist message of Progressivism, the liberalising reform movement that peaked in America in the early 20th century. He realized not only that it was essential for businesses to counter this message, but that the same conduit could be used to spread pro-business sentiment.
His idea, blindingly obvious now but a novelty then, was to send newsdesks a stream of statements putting the mining bosses’ case and rebutting allegations against them.
The seeds in this story, are rich with potential for your prosperity and are so simple. Lee observed that the rise of national newspaper chains and syndicated journalism in America since the 1880s, combined with the extension of the franchise, had profoundly changed society. Now, for the first time, there was something that could accurately be called “public opinion”, a shared consciousness and conversation across the country—and it was to be feared. This is obvious now but was a novelty then.
The real seed is that a coincidence of many technologies changed the world (in the form of the newspaper)… at the turn of the 20th century. One technology was the ability to make newsprint… the paper of newspapers. Paper was two thousand years old, but cheap newsprint, paper from wood pulp, did not come along until 1838 when Charles Fenerty of Halifax made the first newsprint while helping a local paper mill maintain an adequate supply of rags to make paper. He succeeded in making paper from the wood pulp itself.
Plus technologies in transportation and communication then allowed… everyone, reporters to paperboys, to create public opinion through the power of the word.
This leads us to the second story that tells of another global transformation from broadcast to broad band… from large publishing to Self Publishing and how you can have so many good things you desire… freedom… material wealth…adventure… security… fulfillment… friendships…. status and fun as a Self Publisher.
Perhaps what Merri and I are most proud of this second story because it tells the tale of a student who used our publishing course “Self Fulfilled How to be a Self Publisher” to build a career.
David Cross was a meditation teacher in Edinburgh Scotland who taught our son Jake the art of meditating when Jake was at university there. We meet David there and after talking he ordered our “Self Fulfilled – How to be a Self Publisher” course then in print… (now its online) and published a report. One reader of the report had a new internet server business and was so impressed that he hired David to work for him in Sweden. In the process of rising to become the managing director of that firm… David started our website (and is still our webmaster as well as business partner now). During one business meeting in London, David met our daughter Cinda. ‘Love at First Sight.”
David Cross and Cinda Scott-Cross DVM.
David also met executives of International Living and went on to become Chief internet consultant for Agora Inc. one of the largest online marketing companies in the world.
David has since built an unparalleled, hands-on marketing experience that spans 25 years in 22 countries for companies and charities large and small. He’s guided many businesses and individuals to success in their business and helped them achieve their marketing goals, both online and offline.
As Senior Internet Consultant to Agora Inc. in Baltimore, MD, David worked closely with Agora’s publishers and marketers and over an 8-year period helped to propel Agora’s online revenues to over $300 Million in 2009.
Myles Norin, the CEO of Agoras wrote: ”I have found David’s knowledge and experience unmatched in the industry. Without David’s expertise and guidance for the past 7 years, we would not be nearly as successful as we are.”
David hails from England and now lives on a small farm close to Mount Hood in Oregon with our daughter, a veterinarian, their five children and a menagerie of animals. When not marketing or brainstorming you’ll find David following a dream of self-sufficiency for food, power and water within 10 years, tending the land and caring for the farm and animals. Not surprisingly, David is an engaging and knowledgeable speaker with many amusing anecdotes from his work and travels over the years.
Such is the power that Self Publishing brings.
The third story is of my wife Merri and me.
Merri became involved in self publishing over 40 years ago… first helping a veterinarian publish a book on a very specific market… animal acupuncture. Then she showed a needle point artist how to sell more books to an even more specific audience… “needle point enthusiasts” about her needle point work to an audience larger than the population of the city she lived in. This led Merri to eventually become Executive Editor of an award winning magazine in Florida.
My story allowed me to work and live from Hong Kong to London to Europe to Eastern Europe, then the Caribbean and then Ecuador… making millions in the process of following my adventures and having fun… while helping a large readership adapt to a rapidly changing world.
Self Publishing has created exactly the lifestyle I desire with a farm in North Carolina, orange groves and home in Florida… hotel and condos in Ecuador working at what I love and enjoy.

Merri’s and my story also reflects how Self Publishing can enhance relationship. Merri and I have not spent a night apart since we began publishing together over 30 years go.
Merri and I heading up to a seminar hall at our Blue Ridge farm to speak with a group about Self Publishing.
Self Publishing has entered a new era as a new business art form and we want to share with you how to start your own self publishing business now.
Learn how to develop your publishing skills to turn your passion into profit! If you can’t write… publish instead!
Whatever your passion, you can immerse yourself in it AND even create a six-figure income. This could be your direct ticket to the kind of fulfillment you’ve always wanted in life. Whether you want to travel the world or live as a recluse, work 12 hours a day or not work at all, learn more about golf or feeding the hungry… it can be yours if you’re willing to learn.
Self Fulfilled: How to be a Self Publisher will teach you our proprietary step-by-step plan for getting your publishing business going… full or part-time… right away.
How you can start with a very small amount of money and eventually work only four hours a day (if you are operating full-time).
11 steps to creating the perfect product, including how to review ideas, test focus, and aim at markets.
How to gain 1,000% returns on some of your publications.
How to choose a format—book, newsletter, list, audio or video—that suits you and your audience.
Frequently committed marketing mistakes and how to avoid them (plus, you’ll get samples of winning marketing pieces to study).
Personally, I like to write. And through publishing and writing, I have become wealthy beyond my dreams!
My wife, Merri, and I became multi-millionaires within 10 years of starting our self-publishing business. Today, we have more cars than we can drive, five homes and numerous cabins in North Carolina and Ecuador. We have a beautiful lake front home on 16 acres (with an orange grove to boot). We have no mortgages, not a penny of debt, and plenty of money in the bank.
But more important than the money, I enjoy the bliss of each and every day, doing what I love and hoping I can do it forever.
And why wouldn’t I? I often start my work days at 5:00 a.m. and wrap up by 9:00 a.m. That leaves the rest of the day to do mostly as I feel. If the kids are home, we’ll play. Other days, I just putter. Some days I take out a canvas and paint or concentrate on playing my flute. Other days, I just sit in the sun and read.
But even though my day’s work is often finished by the time many people are just getting started, I will still be thousands of dollars richer by the end of the day!
Of course I don’t always work just four hours a day. Some days I stay at the keyboard seven, eight, even 12 hours. But the thing is I love every minute of it, because I’m involved in projects that excite me!
Not only am I learning, writing, and publishing about things that I love, but I’m also making myself and the world a better place in the process. This life is as perfect as any I could ask for.
It Doesn’t Take Long to Start Making Serious Money
When I started my publishing business, I made a 380% return on my initial investment within a month. And it just got better from there.
Of course, no business is without its pitfalls. In fact, I’ve identified 17 pitfalls of publishing and they are covered in the course. It took me more than a decade of struggle to learn how to avoid them all, but I did it.
You see, back in 1974, I had what I thought was a good business, but to be honest, I could never get ahead. I was almost penniless, in debt and living from hand to mouth. Then I discovered the secrets to avoiding the pitfalls. Since then, our publishing business has brought in millions.
Now, Merri and I have packed over 40 years of global publishing and business experience into our course on how to have Self Publishing business.
Before I tell you how this program can help you create your ideal lifestyle, I want to make an important point. I’m not promising that this program will make you rich overnight or that you’ll wake up tomorrow with a more satisfying life. If you’re looking for a way to get rich while you sleep, you should stop reading right now.
But if you’re willing to invest a reasonable amount of time and effort into learning and applying this simple system, it will put you squarely on the road to becoming a wealthy and fulfilled publishing entrepreneur.
Through this in-depth program, I will share, teach, and guide you on everything you need to find a fulfilling path and start making good money right away.
I’ve structured the program to make it as easy as possible for you to implement. You’ll know precisely what to do from the very first day till the day you have a thriving publishing business.
You can start part-time with any dream, passion, and budget. Once you’ve created a product, you’ll enjoy the “multiple effect” of producing profits over and over again.
So the question is… What do you love to do?
What’s Your Passion: Helping People Who Are in Pain?
Thirty years ago, a client of Merri’s developed a series of pamphlets explaining various chiropractic disorders in very simple terms. For example: “What Is Whip Lash?”
The pamphlets contained solid information, but were simple 5″ x 7″ brochures with drawings and explanations. He sold them with a rack to chiropractors, who put them in their offices for patients to read. These little self-published items have sold year in and year out for three decades.
There are thousands of ideas of this sort that can lead to big business. It’s just a matter of figuring out and then acting on your passion.
Although I can work when I please and go where I wish, for me the most important reason for being a publisher is the satisfaction it brings. I love the projects I take on, so work doesn’t feel like, well… work.
I’m passionate about investing, so I publish about that. But what matters is what do you love?
If you love golf, then you can publish things about golf. Love travel, fishing, dogs, dolls, or art? Publish about those things.
Are you concerned about crime, war, poverty or environmental issues? You can publish information products that help wipe them out.
Would you like to help the world be a more spiritual place? Publish a newsletter, write a book (or hire someone to write it for you), record a tape… do something that enlightens people.
Whatever your passion, you can immerse yourself in it and make a fortune by publishing CDs, lists, books, or any format you choose.
How to Build a Million-Dollar Business in Seven Years
The first time I exposed others to the secrets in Self Publishing: Your Complete Business Plan for Creating a Life Without Borders, it was in a weekend seminar. People from all walks of life attended—chiropractors, businessmen, investors, doctors, realtors, inventors, airline pilots, engineers, and housewives.
Merri and I were so overwhelmed by the response to the seminar, we decided to make it available to a larger audience.
Unlike programs that are put together by “experts” who have never actually done what their program promotes, this program is not theoretical. It describes step-by-step how Merri and I built a million-dollar international business in just seven years.
Another thing that is unique about us is that Merri and I decided to do the whole business by ourselves. Though we have tens of thousands of buyers and have made millions, we still work at home and do not employ a single person. You’ll be able to do the same—if you wish—because I’ve included everything we did—explained in vivid detail—in the program.
The program is also full of practical publishing ideas and case studies…
For example, you’ll learn about a pilot who published a book on the best airport cafés (suddenly all his flying became tax-deductible!)… how one couple who loved an island wrote a guide on the place and made enough money to buy a home on the beach there… and how another couple made millions with a simple legal idea.
What’s Your Passion: Travel and Tourism?
A client of ours amassed a fortune by starting travel guides for cities. He started with Sarasota, Florida, publishing a simple booklet with attractions, restaurants, etc. and plenty of advertising. Then he moved onto Naples, and on and on,until the whole state of Florida was done.
He didn’t have to put much work into the booklets as he could carry over plenty of generic information from booklet to booklet. But there were plenty of advertisers and plenty of people who wanted to obtain these booklets.
Finally, he franchised the whole operation.
* How to set up a computerized fulfillment center even if you’re computer illiterate.
* How to turn advertising dollars into a fortune by creating winning ads, direct mail pieces, and getting thousands of dollars in free publicity.
* Which printers to avoid and how to cut your printing bill in half by asking for quotes differently.
* How to use your computer and the internet to save hundreds of thousands of dollars in printing and postage.
* How to control inventory, check ad results, and keep overhead down.
* 11 financial hazards to avoid and tricks to stay profitable without a daily accountant.
* My secret pricing strategies that will help you sell more units of your product.
* Plus much, much more that I don’t have space for here!
Why This Unique System Is Guaranteed to Put You on the Road to Publishing Success
In Self Fulfilled – How to be a Self Publisher Merri and I give away every publishing secret we know and expect those who use this powerful program to reap a fortune and change their whole life for the better.
Why we’ll add the Self Published Kindle addition free.
If you’re wondering what a program like this can do for you, just take a look at how much my seminar on publishing helped the participants. Here’s what some of the folks had to say about what they learned:
“The course fulfilled all my expectations providing all the details necessary to start a publishing business from creating the idea, through marketing including the systems necessary to implement our ideas.” — B. C., Chiropractor California
“Gary, your system is jam packed with vital information. My head is spinning. Thank goodness this is all backed up by your manual. This is a true and cherished gift. Your tips are a blessing! Thank you once again. The value far exceeds the price.” — B. K., Investor Pennsylvania
“The course was excellent covering all the facets of publishing. The philosophy of keeping small with no employees alone made the course invaluable. Gary and Merri, you were excellent!” — S. K., Businessman
Georgia
“Your program gave me insight on what to do with widening my client base.”
– M.E., Real Estate Broker Florida
“We found the course interesting and informative. We were inspired to start work on a booklet. When we came down, we had no idea what to publish.”
– Employed couple from New York
“Your publishing course is outstanding! Just two hours of study on Sunday alone were worth more than the course price.”
– A publisher from California
“The course helped me in three ways. #1: To realize that it is not only OK but preferable to start small. #2: A small point but with big implications was Merri’s description of how she is going to make Gary an expert in the sport’s field. #3: I feel I have a workable program to have a newsletter — my own passion!” – T. B., Professional Washington
These are just a few of the many comments I’ve received from people I’ve personally trained at my seminars to turn their passions into profits through publishing.
What’s Your Passion: Expand Your Current Business?
You don’t have to reinvent the wheel with your publishing business. You can use publishing to expand your current business. That’s what I did — and it’s what the owners of a consulting firm in California did, too.
These business owners decided to write and publish books to establish credibility and attract new customers — and it worked like a charm.
Over the past 10 years, they have written two books, both aimed at establishing their company as the go-to source for customer service training. They credit the books with bringing in more than $1 million in new business!
Writing and books have turned into such a bonanza that they’ve recently added a new service to their business — coaching small business owners on the ins and outs of book publishing.
This brand-new home study version of the program is designed only for people who are serious about making a six- or seven-figure income, controlling their own destiny, or otherwise improving the quality of their life by publishing information products. It is not for idle curiosity.
Here’s How to Start Living a More Fulfilled Life As a Self-Publisher
With this hot-off-the-presses home study version of my self-publishing program, you get all the same information as people who attended that first seminar—but at a fraction of the cost.
They paid $2,000 to gain access to this information, but you can get the entire Self Fulfilled – How to be a Self Publisher for only $499!
