I was delighted to meet Lucy McCarraher recently at an event where she was speaking about the benefits of publishing a book for your business. Lucy and her business partner Joe McGregor founded Rethink Press in 2011, a hybrid publishing company, to help entrepreneurs publish books that grow their businesses. I invited Lucy to the Your Book Your Business podcast because I was so impressed with the model they have created at Rethink press which supports the author right through the whole of the book writing and publishing journey.
