Wealth Academy Podcast - Wealth Is More Than Just Money

Now more than ever authorpreneurs need to always be marketing. Why?

There are systems and processes that exist to help people become nest-selling authors nationally and internationally. It is important to understand even best-selling authors books collect dust and this is not what should be happening. Writing a book should also entail generating revenue from it because it means books are getting into the hands of readers that need the book because it adds value to their life.

Listen as Paul provides a detailed overview of day one, two, and three.
