Publishing a book can boost credibility and profits



I had the opportunity to interview Dawn Rivers Baker on Tuesday, January 11th at 8:30pm EDT on the GBN Talk Radio podcast.

Oh - first a little background on Dawn...

ABOUT DAWN RIVERS BAKER

Dawn Rivers Baker is the owner of Wahmpreneur Publishing, Inc. The company is a privately held, woman-owned subchapter-S micro-corporation headquartered in Sidney, New York. Wahmpreneur Books, the division that we'll be discussing in this podcast, is a division of Wahmpreneur Publishing, Inc.

Why publish a book? One of the keys to establishing yourself as an expert in your field is becoming a published author. Your name on the cover of an authoritative, well-produced book gives you instant cache and can lead to more speaking engagements, media appearances, and paying clients.

I did my usual due diligence on my podcast guests and what really impressed me about Dawn and her company is that she was well-recommended by Mark Levine in his book The Fine Print of Self-Publishing. Mark is like the Zagat Survey or the JD Power of the self-publishing industry.

Dawn dropped a lot of gems in this podcast. If you're a micro business owner, a freelancer, or an independent contractor, you'll find this podcast full of the "good stuff."
