The Book Strategy That Made Chandler Bolt $7 Million in 12 Months With Chandler Bolt

If writing a book has been on your someday list forever, this one's for you.

I brought in Chandler Bolt, CEO of selfpublishing.com and author of 7 bestselling books, because honestly, I had questions. I traditionally published my own book, and I still wasn't sure I made the right call. So we got into all of it, the real difference between self-publishing and traditional publishing, why the bestseller list obsession might be costing you more than you think, and how a book can become your best client-generating tool.

And I'll be honest, by the end of this conversation, I felt like I'd just paid for a private coaching session. Chandler has built an eight-figure business almost entirely off books, with zero social media until five months ago. So if you've ever thought about writing a book, or you have one and you're not squeezing everything out of it, you're going to want to stick around for this one.
