Books, Brands, and Business

Welcome to the Books, Brands, and Business podcast with your host, Chris O’Byrne, from JETLAUNCH.net. 

My guest today is Polly Letofsky, the author of Buzz Bites: 121 Book Marketing Nibbles, Buzz: Your Super Sticky Book Marketing Plan, and 3mph: The Adventures of One Woman's Walk Around the World.

Polly is also the owner and founder of My Word Publishing. As she says on her website, “At My Word Publishing, we want authors to birth the book of their vision seamlessly, swiftly, and affordably.”

However, the main focus of our talk today is her walk around the world from 1999–2004, where she walked 14,124 miles through 22 countries and 4 continents, and raised $250k in 13 currencies for breast cancer research.

My guests today are Tammie and Rob Chrin. Tammie and Rob began selling on Amazon in 2014 testing out retail arbitrage and online arbitrage (RA/OA) and it proved to be very successful all the while doing it part-time. After that initial success, they realized that arbitrage wasn’t the business model they were interested in and decided that the private label business model was a better fit. They pursued that, released several private label products and became aware of print on demand (POD) for both Amazon Merch and Amazon Kindle Direct Publishing (KDP). Tammie pursued the KDP direction creating low-content/no-content books, but had difficulty getting her books to sell online. Then, she came up with a strategy to create branded, customized low-content/no-content books for businesses, which became the KDP 4 B2B model to create a recurring income stream.

My guest today is Mike Saunders, the author of Authority Selling. 

Mike is also known at the Authority Positioning Strategist and helps to position authors as an influencer in their niche or industry to attract more clients, increase your profits, and make more impact.
