Ever thought about writing a book to elevate your authority… but convinced yourself you’re “not ready”?
Wondering how a simple paper-and-ink asset can transform your marketing, attract affluent clients, and position your facility miles ahead of the competition?
And did you get a copy of Mission Enrich, Dom’s brand-new business parable that launched at the Hershey Expo and is already pulling in glowing reviews?
In this week’s episode, host Dom Hodgson gives you an exclusive, behind-the-scenes look at his tenth book — Mission Enrich — and breaks down why book-writing is one of the smartest strategic moves any dog daycare or pet resort owner can make.
Dom explains how creating a book becomes a 24/7 salesperson for your business, why affluent dog owners gravitate toward experts with published works, and how a well-written book instantly elevates your perceived expertise in a way social media never will. He also talks openly about the creative challenges of moving from “how-to” books to story-driven content and why stepping outside your comfort zone is the gateway to bigger opportunities.
You’ll also hear Dom read the full preface and opening chapter of Mission Enrich, plus he takes a look at a few Amazon reviews from early readers who’ve already put the book into action.
