Sara Troy interviews John North from Evolve Global Publishing on An Authors Kiss show, on air from January 1st 2020
How Publishing your own book can be a great marketing strategy for any entrepreneur and how To Become a #1 Best Selling Author In as Little as 90 Days Without Writing A Single Word..”
You probably think you need around 12 months to
write a book. The vast majority of people simply can’t find the time to sit
down and actually write their book. Usually this isn’t the only issue, most
people don’t really know where to even start to write a book. There are 3 fatal
mistakes that prevent most people from either starting or finishing their book
and for those that do end up finishing their book there are the reasons why
they are not successful at marketing, promoting or even getting results.

Traditional eLearning and Coaching Systems are
non-interactive and too rigid for the busy and distracting lifestyles of
today’s students and clients.
We have struggled with providing clients with even a basic business system without having to subscribe to numerous unrelated software platforms. Because there is no simple, central way to manage all of these different implementations, it quickly becomes a tangled web of cobbled-together plugins, workarounds, and synchronizations.
Here is an example of what a typical entrepreneur
needs in their business system to be successful in today’s highly-competitive
marketplace:
A great mobile-ready website that tightly integrates your podcast channel and blogs.
Ability to email your subscribers when new content is available, such as your latest podcast.
Create a highly-engaged community for your clients and prospects that can give them extra value behind a secure login.
The ability for your visitors to buy your products/services on the same site and handle the delivery on whether to serve up a download or ship a physical product. Also, you may wish to have multiple payment gateways, such as Stripe and PayPal.
They all end up in your back-end membership area, which includes all their invoices, downloads and bonus content. No fumbling around with separate websites and different logins!
Ability to create a recurring membership system where you can charge them monthly, yearly, etc.
Courses where your members can learn online at their own pace. A course system allows them to progress as they do each lesson, not necessarily on a weekly release schedule where they could easily get behind and give up.
What about assigning tasks and quizzes to your course? No longer do they need to download a worksheet PDF they never actually complete. You can see all their answers, which means you also know where they are at in the course schedule. No one is left behind!
This means you can also coach them based on their task list.
Then, of course, you may want different front-end websites but don’t want to have them all operate in their own ecosystem. With Evolvepreneur, you can have as many front-end sites as you like and they all can lead back to one single back end community, meaning they are all a part of the same ecosystem.
What about a powerful analytics reporting system so you can see exactly where your web traffic is coming from and what they’re clicking on?
A single dashboard to run your business, know your marketing numbers, create content and manage your business.
A business procedure system so your staff and outsourcers can run your processes the same way every time.
A Customer Service system including a ticket system to track and ensure all your customers are provided quality service.
Create an easy system for your referrers or affiliates to share your products and services and be rewarded.
What if you wanted to create a mastermind group? Evolvepreneur has the ability to group people together and map out a logical progression and access to Q&A calls, group tasks, and results.
A Marketing Module to trigger emails or actions based on your prospect’s behavior, as well as help them progress through your courses.
A project management system to help you and your team manage your own projects.
How long to do you think this would take to
implement? Maybe a year! We have been there. It’s not easy, and we would
probably have been forced to use 4-5 systems just to manage all of these
different features.
But this is the vision for Evolvepreneur. In as
little as 90 days, you will have a fully functional business system that would
normally have taken years to create.

Choose Positive Living with Sara Troy and her guest Gina Gardner, on air from November 12th.
Gina says…We live at a time where we are bombarded with information via the news, social media, and documentaries. The vast majority of them are spewing out news about political mudslinging and uncertainty, wars, people being displaced, hunger, global warming, poverty, division, and natural disaster.
There was a time not so long ago when the news was limited to the daily newspaper and the news programmes which were shown a few times a day on terrestrial TV which closed down for the day at midnight. Today there is no let-up to the onslaught of information via phones, tablets, PCs, TVs etc.
Much of the time you can’t be sure what is fact, what is political spin or downright lies. The few ‘feel good’ stories often put as a sweetener at the end of the show does little to drown out the torrent of negativity.
I believe this is making a significant contribution to an epidemic of social depression. I’m not talking about clinical depression or where people have been affected by a tragedy, abuse or life-changing situation which has had a profound effect on them.
I believe the western world is being badly affected by what I describe as social depression. A feeling that you are helpless, that things are being done by others over which you have no control. A sense of overwhelm, fatigue and low mood which persists and you are not quite sure why.
I think we are absorbing the negativity
which surrounds us and for the most part are unaware of the growing miasma
until it sucks our vitality. Rather like
the Dementors in Harry Potter.
I believe that we absorb the mood of those around us really easily. When we are with really positive people it is easier to feel energised and optimistic. When we are surrounded by negative messages, people who are moaning or focusing on the problems rather than potential solutions it is rather like bubonic plague or Ebola. It is incredibly infections and just as deadly.
In the UK over half the prescriptions issued are for anti-depressants. Whilst many people rely on these drugs, others find they have to take larger and larger doses and are still feeling they are unable to cope. The most common reason for men under 40 dying in the UK is not illness or accident but suicide. The economy in the UK loses £70+ billion per year through days lost to work through stress and the cost of presenteeism is thought to cost twice as much to the economy. This in no way gives any sense of the human cost that underpins such figures.
The number of children and young people who are struggling to cope is growing at an alarming rate.
People are using alcohol, drugs, food, shopping, and sex to act as an anesthetic, to dumb down negative feelings. Surely it is time to question what is going on and look to implement solutions which will make a lasting difference.
It would be easy to think there is nothing
we can do about things but I completely disagree. I think that anyone who believes they are too
inconsequential to make a difference should spend the night in a room with a
mosquito. We have choices – every minute
of every day. Every choice we make has
consequences. Even not choosing makes
consequences, and it is often not choosing which has the most impact.
Here is a selection of my top strategies to help you step out of social depression:
95% of our thinking is habitual – it
doesn’t actually involve our conscious brain.
Learning to think mindfully to be conscious of the quality of our
thinking has the capacity to make a huge and positive difference.
Take radical responsibility for everything
you say and do, how and when you say or do it or on whether you do it at
all. Be responsible for yourself physically, emotionally and spiritually – if
you hand that responsibility to others you have to put up with what they
decide. No one can MAKE you unhappy
unless you choose to let them.
Your beliefs become our reality – if you think you will fail it becomes a done deal, believe you will succeed even if you are not quite sure how then you open the door of possibility. It is time to do a complete overhaul of your beliefs and to ensure they underpin success and happiness.
Choose to focus on what you CAN DO rather
than what you can’t. What you focus on
appears to expand. If you focus on the
negative – it feels as if it grows. The
same is true of focusing on the positive –
it too begins to expand and grow.
Treat yourself as you would a best friend. So rather than beating yourself up be kind to
yourself. Rather than comparing yourself
with others, with images which have been heavily doctored choose to appreciate
and love yourself – wobbly bits and all.
YOU ARE ENOUGH!
Be aware of the language you use – language is incredibly powerful particularly
self-chatter. Be aware that we are often
our own worst critics, we often so much harder on ourselves than we are others. Be mindful of using the same criteria for
yourself as you do others.
Collecting gratitudes is an incredibly
positive impact when you do it on a regular basis. As you go through the day notice the things
which give you pleasure or make you smile. Make it easy!! Just before you go to sleep scan the day and
choose your top 5. Done regularly this
will re-calibrate the brain and help you feel really positive.
Random acts of kindness – doing things for others with no expectation of any acknowledgment creates a lasting feel-good factor.
Find your true purpose – be of service to
others, animals or the environment. As
you take a positive step to making a difference, the quality of your life will
change hugely – for the better.
These are just a few of the things you CAN do to help you and those you care about to feel good despite all the negativity which surrounds us. At the core is learning to live a life which is embracing love and compassion rather than fear and division.
Everything we do is a choice, even not choosing is actually a choice and every choice has consequences. Doesn’t it make sense to choose to be happy?

I had a wonderful trip to the UK to see my brother and sister to celebrate our coming of years. As time is passing us by so fast, getting together is a gift as one nevers knows what tomorrow holds, we are 65, 70 and 78, and living in the now is key.
We did so much, lots of walking, dining, shopping, seeing exhibits, movies, and more, it was a full trip.
First was having a wonderful lunch with my cousins, hosted by my cousin Cathrine whom I had not seen in 44 years, she and her husband Darius Rubeck (Dave Rubeck’s sons and also a musician, (who I interviewed here) bought us a fabulous lunch at a 1400 century pub in Rye, my sister Jane was there and my cousin Bridgette and Susie.
My sister and I went to see the Mary Quant exhibit a designer from the ’60s who changed fashion completely, then on to a fabulous meal at The Builders Arms in Chelsie, beautiful trout done in a chili sauce.
My brother and I went back to his new home in Grimsby and had a week of walks, good food and relaxation. I read his new book in the works called “We feel your pain so you don’t have to” it will make a great movie. MORE ON SAMS WORK HERE.
We went to so many great restaurants, like the Doggie cafe where you and your dog can dine, a Vegan cafe in Louth wonderful scones all vegan, fish cakes at Willies pub in Cleethorpes, and a lovely lunch in an old school room in Horncastle.
We went back to London to have my last few days together, We went to the Borough Market and had the most fantastic Paella, the market is filled with wonderful spices, loaves of bread, cheeses, lunch delights and it was great.
We went by St Francis Drakes ship and saw the tallest building in London. It was a beautiful warm day as was most of them while there. Life was buzzing and people buying as was I, and London is in a constant state of building.
The Strand and other wonderful buildings.
My sister and I went to see the Downton Abby movie and loved it, it was so much fun. My brother and I went to see Ad Astra, the Brad Pitt movie, a nice story building movie that did not rely on all action.
Our birthday dinner was at an Italian restaurant in Beckenham, I had mussels, cannelloni, and cream caramel and throughout this trip, I have had wonderful wine.
I am very grateful to them and my kids who made it possible for me to go to the UK and see family, a wonderful trip and so good to be with relatives again.
One thing I could have done without is Brexit, my sister is very involved in it and it got intense, I did a show while there on politics. You Can find that here.
