You've seen "experts" on TV or heard them on the radio or read their quotes in the trade press - and these "experts" don't know as much as you, right?
Without a book, you will never be "the" expert, the one the press turns to for comment, or the one who commands higher fees and gets the speaking gigs.
I know - I am the author of 2 books - and I get more press and speaking gigs as a result - plus I can (and do) charge more. It took me a long time to get the first book done - but once it came out - wow! I even got featured in Entrepreneur (July 2006).
If you are committed to writing or finishing your book, there is a teleseminar this week (Thursday, and it is free) that will give you some tips on how to write it over a weekend.
Thursday Jan 21- discover how to write your book in a weekend.

Best to you in your writing quest!

Ever thought about business coaching as a profit center?
Do you offer coaching services? Over the past 2 years I have, and it can be good income and emotionally rewarding as well.
If you have not considered business coaching, maybe you should for 2010.
Why? Because coaching is one of the quickest ways almost any 'subject matter expert' can make more while also helping a lot of people. In fact, you might be surprised how much others will pay for what you know (and probably take for granted).
To discover how to get started offering coaching services, you're invited to a free telephone seminar on Thursday, January 7th:
http://www.CoachingTrainingTeleseminar.com/?10535
On the call, my friend Steve Harrison interview Tim Paulson, an author, speaker and coaching expert who's helped many people start successful coaching practices. Although I am a compensated affiliate for this program, I recommend Steve Harrison's program without reservation. I have been through several of his programs since meeting him in January 2006, and each program has helped me develop new skills.
Here's just some of you what you'll discover on Thursday's call:
* Why you undoubtedly know (and take for granted) things others will pay to learn, plus why you probably don't need any special degrees or credentials to get started.
* How to get others to gladly pay you $100 ...$200 ... (or more) per hour for your advice and have it be worth every penny to them!
* A little-known secret Tim discovered in Egypt on how to help other people change their lives through coaching ... and create a big cash surge quickly (authors and 'soon to be' authors will LOVE this.)
* How you can have a lot more fun, make a profound difference in the lives of others and do it in a way that completely fits your lifestyle (even part-time).
* Why having a non-fiction book can be a powerful (but not essential) way to get coaching clients. And how to get clients if your book isn't out yet.
* The fastest and easiest way to be up and running in a successful coaching business (literally within five days from now).
* Three costly mistakes and common pitfalls to avoid when getting started as a coach. (These you MUST know!).
* How to take an existing coaching business to the next level.
From my own experience as an occasional business coach, the emotional rewards are as good as the financial rewards. And your most successful clients will bring you more clients. You can offer coaching in groups (face to face or via teleseminar), or one on one (also via teleseminar or face to face). I prefer recorded teleseminars, as we can both (or all) review the entire discussion at our convenience.
I have seen coaching programs for a wide variety of skills, from dressing professionally (yes - how to dress for success!), business management, getting PR, blogging, public speaking, using social media (using Twitter, LinkedIn, Facebbok, etc), podcasting, how to start na seminar business, traditional networking (how to work a room) - all kinds of things!
Again, in the interest of full disclosure, you should know I'm a compensated affiliate for Steve's programs.
