James Hill is a book author and an owner of a publishing company. He has traveled quite a journey since the last time he was on the show!

It’s funny how you can see your life journey form and take shape over the years. You can trace every decision you make and every opportunity you choose to take to who you are now. James’ extensive background in writing, computer science, insurance selling, and even doing the paper route all added up to what he does now: publishing books.

As colleagues, it was nice to talk about our field, and what publishers deal with when working with book writers. This is what we discussed:

● Writing vs Selling - what’s harder?

● Writer’s unrealistic revenue goals

● Name recognition and how to get your brand out there 

● His personal motivation to start publishing books

● The stigma around being a small independent publishing company

● Why not every book is ready for the public and how to fix that

● The importance of passing it forward and connecting people who work in your field

● The importance of understanding the timeline. You didn’t get where you are in just one day, allow yourself time to complete your next goal!

● How to submit a book to a publisher

● Some common mistakes authors make when submitting their manuscript (hint: read the rules!)
