EP43 - Jonathan Stark has Questions About Self Publishing

Épisode 43

jeudi 12 novembre 2020 • Durée 45:44

I recently joined friend Jonathan Stark on his podcast "Ditching Hourly" where he typically talks about business strategies and best practices for helping freelancers and consultants escape hourly billing. And we talked about that world of business quite a bit, including how people often copy the wrong parts of the successes they've seen.

But as a self-published digital author himself, Jonathan also wanted to grill me on exactly how we launched The Tiny MBA and sold thousands of copies without a publishing deal...and without boxes of books sitting in my basement.

So I indulged him!

In this episode, you're going to hear my answers to Jonathan's questions about:

Why we decided to make The Tiny MBA a physical, printed book in the first place
How and why we picked our printing and distribution partner (and why it's not Amazon)
And Jonathan and I riff on my new "secret weapon" for building pre-launch momentum, and why it created a 90% conversion rate and some of the fastest sales I've ever seen.

I also learned that Jonathan went to music school, and the comparison he draws in the first few moments between learning both business and music through style practices still has me thinking about it weeks later!

I'm excited to see Jonathan ship his first paperback book in the future, and if you're inspired to consider self-publishing a print book, I hope the stories and suggestions in this episode help you too.

WIth that, let's get into my conversation with Jonathan Stark from the Ditching Hourly podcast.

Ready? Here we go.

Over the last few episodes, I've been visiting podcasts all across the internet, talking with entrepreneurs and creative people just like you to talk about some of their favorites tidbits from my new book, The Tiny MBA.

And a whole lot more!

Épisode 32

jeudi 27 août 2020 • Durée 35:16

In today's episode, I visit with Brendan Hufford from the SEO for the Rest of Us podcast to talk about some of his favorite lessons from The Tiny MBA.

We talk about:

Learning and feedback loops
Building in public
The valuable knowledge that's often locked up behind closed doors

In the full episode (which you can watch on Brendan's youtube channel) we talk more about the backstory and design of the book, so you can go check that out over there if you like.

But for here on the stacking, the bricks feed, I jumped straight to the part where we start talking about the lessons that Brendan learned from the book and wanted to share.

I hope you enjoy this in depth conversation with Brendan and I. Lets go!

mercredi 19 août 2020 • Durée 37:28

And today I'm sharing an episode from a live stream that I did with Ken Rimple and Becca Refford at Chariot Solutions, an enterprise tech consulting firm right here in Philadelphia. Chariot is a big force in the Philadelphia tech community, doing lots of great things for technologists in the region.

In today's episode, we riffed on a few of Ken and Becca's favorite nuggets from the book, including:

The power of slowing down to take a look for hidden C
The real reason self-promotion feels achy to you.
And we explored a hidden theme of "wellness" in the book!

Also, a quick shout out to Hannah Litvin, the designer behind The Tiny MBA. In this episode, we talk a little bit about her designs and the design process that we went through together.

If you're thinking about creating a book of our own, and are interested in hiring a designer, you should absolutely check her out: https://www.behance.net/hannahlitvin

EP30 - Sales for Founders & The Tiny MBA

Épisode 30

vendredi 14 août 2020 • Durée 56:31

Hope you're safe, hope you're well, hope your loved ones are well, hope you're finding ways to stay sane and of course, finding ways to keep stacking the bricks to build your own product business.

Over the coming weeks I'm going to be adding new episodes to the Stacking the Bricks feed to highlight conversations that I've been having across the internet with creators and entrepreneurs.

Why have I been having these conversations?

One: I'm stuck at home, just like you!
But two: I have a new book, The Tiny MBA

100 Very Short Lessons about the Long Game of Business
Short enough to read in 20-30 mins
Available as an ebook but also for the first time, a paperback book!

Today's episode is one of the first conversations I had about the book, with Louis Nicholls from the Sales for Founders podcast.

Louie was one of the beta readers, and invited me to kick off a new seasons of his show to talk about the book and to go deep on a few of the lessons inside.

I'll let him introduce the episode in a moment, but if you want to get your own copy of The Tiny MBA, you can go to https://tiny.mba to order it in paperback or ebook formats, OR find it on the amazon kindle store.

With that, here's Louis. Oh, and go subscribe to his show too: https://pod.salesforfounders.com

Enjoy.
