Show Notes

  • Hal’s near death experience transformed his life and refocused him onto helping other people fulfill their potential.
  • Author and entrepreneur are interchangeable.
  • Most books don’t scale their impact and income for their authors.
  • Hal originally self published his book The Miracle Morning but by doing so he created a hybrid publishing model that he leveraged in other foreign markets.
  • 80% of the people who buy Hal’s book opt in to the bonuses included.
  • When you believe in your message, you have to keep promoting and sharing it.
  • Many best selling authors last year are nowhere on the charts this year.
  • The four core pillars: elicit behaviour change, compel readers to opt in and share, create a self sustaining community, and keep promoting until…
  • Most books change the way you think, but once you stop reading it you stop thinking about it. But if it changes your behaviour, it will change your life.
  • Give your reader a ritual they can do regularly. Affirmations create repetition.
  • Give them a 30 day challenge to take what you’re teaching them so they can turn it into something they can sustain beyond the reading of the book.
  • Offer multiple resources that are relevant and compelling that are related to your content.
  • Set it up for those that opt in can easily share your book so they don’t have to do the hard work.
  • Include a special invitation for your reader and invite them into your community. Create a pinned post so that new members know exactly what to do to get started. Engage daily.
  • Promote what you believe in until it’s created the impact you know it can.
