Notice the difference: Business Cards Cost Money || Books Create Value Business Cards Are an Expense || Books Are an Asset Business Cards Get Thrown Away || Books Last Forever Business Cards Decrease Space in Your Pocket || Books Increase Influence, Impact, and Income Business Cards Change Landfills || Books Change Lives How you view your book and position it in the marketplace shapes your results and your riches-or lack thereof.
