@ulisesorozco Well, we are here if you want to finally turn your ideas into books. It's literally the point of our company.
And Product Hunters get $500 off.
Hey, it's my favourite authorpreneur. Tucker, I'm that random Australian guy on your @angellist syndicate.
Always found your books entertaining, but mostly I was impressed by the way you grew a blog into a book, and a book into what is quickly becoming an empire. I loved that post about peta/"Fix Your Bitches", and the way that went down, and more recently I read Trust Me I'm Lying by @RyanHoliday, which (in addition to ruining the Internet for me) gave some great background on the movie launch.
Will customers signing up for Book in a Box get direct access to you and your acumen, or will it mostly be freelancers? I've got a book project that I'll be looking at doing later this year or early next year, so will definitely be checking this out if I decide to go ahead.
$15k doesn't seem like a lot to get a guide through the publishing minefield and I know you've written some pretty interesting posts about that before (was it you that wrote about how to go #1 on the NYTimes before you even release?).
I think there's never been a better time to go and start a business, or build a product, and I think "where to start" services like this are right on trend. I feel it's why companies like @makersrow are gaining so much momentum.
Edit: Think the article I was referring to was this one: http://www.huffingtonpost.com/tu...
Any client that wants to talk to me can, but that access will depend on what you want or need.
If you just want a finished book of your ideas, the freelancers we work with are much smarter and better than me at our process. They are professional editors, best selling writers, and journalists, so you are in great hands with them.
If you want to add a big marketing package to your book, we can absolutely discuss it, and if we find an approach that makes sense, we can implement it for you. But to be honest, for most authors, book marketing efforts are wasted and generate a negative ROI. I won't take your money just to take it, there has to be a reason and a possible return for you.
@tuckermax Just wanted to jump on this thread and say I found your @medium post on @bookinabox truly inspiring. Thanks for taking the time to write it dude.
