About this episode

Lee Baucom, PhD discusses how non-fiction authors can leverage their books to create sustainable business models through relationship-centered podcasting.

What is your book really building? Organizational business consultant and author of Book To Business Blueprint, Lee Baucom, PhD, explores how non-fiction authors can turn a published book into a lasting business asset. Lee helps authors think beyond the finish line of writing a book, and challenge the smarter question they should be asking themselves: "How do I use this book to serve people, to solve problems, and build something sustainable?" Talking with Tom Schwab, Lee shares his Book to Business Blueprint, a framework for connecting your message to the right audience, offer, and ongoing relationships. A plan that helps every podcast interview generate profitable momentum, not just exposure.
