SPOS #522 – Write A Saleable Book With Nicholas Boothman

Welcome to episode #522 of Six Pixels Of Separation – The Mirum Podcast. It used to be that an individual could write a business book and leverage that medium to become an international celebrity. It still happens, just not as much as it used to. The barrier to entry has been lowered (almost anybody can write a book and self-publish it these days). The intrinsic value of writing a business book has changed as well (the entire book publishing industry is still in the midst of massive disruption). With that, many people – each and every day – try to write a bestselling book. Few will achieve what Nicholas Boothman has done with books like How To Make People Like You in 90 Seconds (or less), Convince Them in 90 Seconds (or less) and How To Make Someone Fall In Love With You in 90 Minutes (or less). He’s not just a hugely popular author who has sold millions of books, appeared in every major news outlet and speaks all over the world, he’s also using what he learned about creating compelling content and getting it published to teach the rest of us how to do it better (and make it work). Most recently, he published, How To Write A Saleable Book (in 10-minute bursts of madness), along with courses and seminars and more. Even if you are not looking to write your own book, how he thinks about content, publishing and more will change the way you tweet and post. Enjoy the conversation…
