Happy Tuesday, Gaia!
This week's giveaways come from Brendon Burchard, a leadership speaker, business coach, and the author of
Life's Golden Ticket.
I've only known Brendon a few months, and he's already made quite an impression. His story is memorable:
as a college freshman, he was involved in a serious car accident, one that he came to call his 'golden ticket,' because of how it pushed him to truly
live.
Life's Golden Ticket is a parable based on that experience.
Ten years later, Brendan has grown into a fabulously effective coach, helping individuals and small businesses find corporate and nonprofit partners and sponsors. It's an excellent strategy: imagine Toyota emailing their entire staff about your book, or US Bank recommending your work to all their employees, or Sony Pictures putting out a press release that includes your program. Brilliant, yes?
He's offering a free 75 minute webinar to all Gaia members, where he shares how he got started and his success with the strategy. (His 'golden ticket' was definitely that: in the past year, Brendon received $500,000 in advances for his second book, raised over $250,000 for his favorite causes, and now reaches two million people a month.) Even better, he shows how you, as an author, small-business owner, or entrepreneur, can learn to
work with sponsoring corporations and nonprofits to help promote your message and gain recognition.
So, if you've got a book you'd like publicized, or have ever thought about leaving your day job to launch something of your own, or just need some inspiration and encouragement about the possibilities out there,
Brendon's method is worth exploring. You'll see. (If the webinar isn't enough, you can also sign up for a more in-depth workshop in May... but first things first!)
And of course, to enter your name in the raffle for
Life's Golden Ticket, just send an email to
books@gaia.com. I'll pick the lucky winners next Friday. :)
Hugs and love and enjoy the webinar (and, of course, feel free to share!)
