Podcast appearances and mentions of Melissa G Wilson

Authoring A Book Elevates Your Status Let's just imagine two people and they both look very professional and they introduce themselves and one says, “Here's who I am. I have all these credentials”. The other person says and I am a published author. That author status elevates you! Get Through The Filter Everyone's filtering all the time as to whom should I believe, whom should I trust and who should I listen to. Everybody wants to get this wisdom to be as successful as possible, whether you're a solopreneur, or have a growing business. Writing A Book Got Me A $500K Contract I was on the women's business graduate advisory board while I was working on a book about strategic alliances with the head of internal alliances at Accenture. I met somebody by the name of Jocelyn Carter Miller. She is well known for successfully bringing Motorola into Latin America and rose to being Vice President Of Motorola Inc. I asked her a very significant question which was, “what's one thing that you haven't done in your career you'd like to do” and she said “I'd like to write a book” So I went back to my publisher Jossey-Bass and shared with them that I'd like to do one about the corporate side of networking. They agreed and we ended up working on the book together. After working with Jocelyn on the book, she asked if I would like to deliver a proposal to come in and work with her to help us look at best practices for building a world-class marketing initiative out of Motorola. I agreed and it ended up being a half a million dollar contract. My passion is about supporting authors as much as I can. The Pie Formula For Writing A Book Easily The crust of the pie is 30% of your book. It's your outline. That's so important that I spend a long time with authors to help them go through the outline All the great ghost writers I've spoken with will tell you that if you create a great outline you can write a great book. Using Amazon Reviews To Research For Your Book Idea One of the best places to research is Amazon. I consider Amazon a million dollar research tool because you can go in there and look at the thousands of categories. I usually recommend moving up from the one star reviews because it will make you feel good. You can look at any fantastic best-selling author example James Clear who wrote Atomic Habits. You can look at his one star reviews and you can see some things that readers wanted but that he failed to cover in his book. You can then write a book that is similar to The James Clear Book, but includes all the topics that he left out. Add 10% Of Your Personality To The Book The final piece of the pie is the garnish. It's going to be all about your personality and that's the final 10 percent. The remaining majority of the pie is your content.

Book publishing has changed dramatically over the past couple of decades. Traditional publishing no longer has a monopoly on distribution, and authors can thrive independently. Hybrid publishing models are springing up. What does it all mean for experts who write a book? In this episode, Melissa G. Wilson and Alastair McDermott discuss the new world of publishing, what's different about thought leadership books, how a series of books can be trademarked, and how to use books to build an audience. They also discuss the importance of book covers, how to use Amazon to research ideas, and the reason why you should study fiction when writing nonfiction.   “The worst advice is write a book and then go to somebody for help. It would be like going into a hoarder's home, they take everything outside, then they say  "this is all the throwaways", it's painful. So the most important thing is to spend time outlining.” -- Melissa G. Wilson

Everyone has a story to tell, and how you tell that story makes all the difference. Publishing is undoubtedly one way to share your story not just with your immediate audience or community but with the world at large. Writing a book, allows you to shift your identity from a professional to an author and helps to solidify your credibility as a thought leader. As the world continues to navigate solutions to unprecedented challenges, we see an opportunity to pivot brands, careers, and businesses through storytelling. This episode features Melissa G. Wilson. Melissa who published several best-selling books and advised several fortune 500 corporations, decided to dedicate her life's work to helping thought leaders expand and amplify their circles of influence and impact through book publishing.

Memoirs are more than just first-hand accounts of the writers' lives, and involve more than stringing together a series of random happenings. In addition to describing some common features of memoirs, I explore the benefits this type of writing has for writer and reader alike. ************************************************************************************************************************************************** Email me: marisadellefarfalle@gmail.com Twitter: @marisadee13 Instagram: marisadf13 I'd also really appreciate it if you could take a moment to rate and review this podcast on Apple Podcasts, as it'll help a lot more people find out about the show! ************************************************************************************************************************************************** Helpful links: "Characteristics of a Memoir," by Melissa G.

Social Jack™ Influence Factory Episode 51: Melissa G. Wilson – “Writing Your Story” Air Date: Wednesday, February 27, 2019 The Influence Factory is a LIVE webcast that airs every Wednesday at NOON Central (via Zoom and Facebook LIVE). In the News segment… During the #InfluencerNewsUpdate, we really dive into the importance of “7 Tips for Using Visual Content Marketing”, an article by Melanie Tamble via Social Media Today. Here is what we discussed: - In the past couple of years, we have evolved into a very Visual world. For example, companies like Apple have commercials that rely heavily on visuals and no speaking. - Visuals can have a tremendous impact on the success of your content marketing and social media campaigns. - It has been proven that Photos, Videos, and infographics are more effective when it comes to grabbing attention. - Obviously, it will be different on every platform. Facebook, LinkedIn, and Twitter are very versatile in regard to the type of content that performs well between photos, video, and infographics. - On Instagram, we find that Photos and Videos will perform better than an infographic. This is due to the fact that images with words on them tend to be a “turn-off” for users on this platform. Another issue is the dimensions of the average infographic is not optimal for what Instagram allows you to work with. - Some of the reasons that these items perform better than written content are that Our brain only needs 1/10 of a second to understand an image, People tend to remember visual information 6 times better than information they’ve read or heard, Infographics grow 12% more traffic and 200% more shares, Click-through-rates on websites with images is 47% higher than others without images, and According to Cisco Visual Networking Index, by 2021 around 78% of all data traffic will consist of videos. View the full article at https://www.socialmediatoday.com/news/7-tips-for-using-visual-content-marketing/548660/ In the Power Move segment… Our featured #PowerMove today was “Time-Chunking for Your Influence”. In this segment, Dean discusses the importance of blocking time to engage and respond to your audience. Time-chunking is a very important part of successful time management, we recommend a simple schedule of 20-minutes a day in order to engage as well as providing thought-provoking content that will spark a conversation between you and your audience.
