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 DO I GET A REAL JOB? In the shadow of Y2K and the dot com bust many people were left jobless and near hopeless. In his block buster and economy rattling book Brand You 50, Tom Peters said - “Don't worry about job security, its a myth. Instead focus on employment security.” I have to say, two decades later, his words are still resonating with incredible truth and resilience. If you have spent all your time and educational investment to become a valuable and needed employee, you may still find yourself in the same place as those who have not. Loyalty from company to employee may not be extinct but it is certainly rare. The number, caliber and class of people who are truly indispensable in dwindling fast. While entrepreneurs and soloprenuers are on the rise in every sector. Work at home and work for self are not yet synonymous but may soon be. Companies like 123Employee.com have made the need for housing a large staff for administrative tasks unnecessary. The speed of the internet and near global access to market places and potential clients has reshaped the world of sales and distribution. Amazon competes with almost every type, size and genre of business in every country. The result is a great divide. For a new company to thrive and be poised to hire they must be either massive and agile in global scale or hyper local. If you want to GET A REAL JOB, you may want to focus on W-2 styled employment, meaning hired by someone else to build their dream, line their pockets, fill their bank account, And enhance their vacations in exchange for the perceived security of a regular paycheck. If that is the case, I recommend you take some assessments to determine your greatest skill sets, talents, abilities, acumen and best educational direction. Mike McCormack can help you with that. You can connect with Mike here: https://peoplerightcareers.com/ If you instead choose to BE YOUR OWN BOSS, start your own thing, build your own 21st century lemonade stand, the best $97 you could invest in your education will be RIGHT HERE. I have been to and through hundreds if not thousands of hours of seminars, classes, trainings, webinars and mentoring relationships, but this particular course CHALLENGES ME like nothing else. Every time I go through the course, I am a different level. Every time I sit through the strategy calls, I hear something I missed last time. Every time I accept the challenge to DO SOMETHING I HAVEN'T TRIED, I discover a secret I have been stepping over. If you want to learn the process to CONVERT YOUR LIFE JOURNEY into a MENTORship course that will become a tool for helping others and earning a respectable income along the way GO HERE.?

[bctt tweet="What’s the difference between successful and unsuccessful people?  It’s the follow up." username="danielhall"] I believe that if you can solve that challenge in your business.  If you can dial in your marketing, and if you have a massive amount of leads and traffic coming through the door, and your bank accounts are overflowing with money, then you can probably buy yourself out of any challenge that you face in your business today.  So, today I’m going to show you how to generate an unlimited amount of leads in your business.
