SPI 613: The Business of Writing and Pub...

Pat Flynn
About this episode

#613 One of the best ways to help your audience is to write a book based on your knowledge and experience. However, the key to connecting with readers is going from what you know to discovering your true message. But what does that even look like? How do you go from just sharing information to inspiring and motivating people to take real action? My guest, Azul Terronez, teaches people how to do exactly that. He is the CEO of Authors Who Lead, where he and his team help leaders write and publish the kinds of books that take brands to the next level. In this episode, we discuss the book landscape today and the business behind it. We also look at Azul's incredible company and how he's removing himself as a bottleneck and allowing other coaches to teach his method. This is a great episode for you if you’re looking for strategies to elevate your brand and stand out. Show notes and more at SmartPassiveIncome.com/session613.
