When God gives you a message it needs to be heard.What if I told you that, by applying some simple strategies, your message could reach more people, more effectively, while making a bigger impact-an impact, not only on others, but also on you?The tragedy is that many Christian leaders and influencers are thinking two-dimensionally about their message. They either preach it, or in some cases, they write a book around it, cutting their audience short, and also themselves.People consume content multiple ways. They read, they listen, they watch, they attend and they participate. By utilizing different vehicles that facilitate information consumption, we can innovate the way we package our message and bring it to market. Not only will we reach more people, we will also position ourselves to generate tremendous streams of income.The principles, concepts and strategies that are outlined in this book have helped me to personally:• Generate $500K in 40 days from an idea that wasn't yet an actual product.• Build a niche database of over 100K leads in less than 3 months.• Build the largest children's pastors conference in the country in less than one year.• Produce half a million dollars in revenue by giving away 4,500 books.• Create $30K in sales, in less than 10 days, by selling a $9 product.• Generate $100K in 5 minutes of a webinar (and double that in the 24 hours. ...and much, much more!This is not an illusion. This stuff is real! Let's open up our minds, and let's jump in.
