Your Legacy Builder Playaction Pondering: I’ve never been a fan of the expression, “a book is the new business card.” To me, calling your book a business card undervalues how important a book can be to your career.”
Business, leadership, and organizational consultants all need a book in their arsenal to demonstrate their expertise to current and potential clients. A book can generate new business, close a pending deal, and remind previous clients that you are still available.
Having a published book adds legitimacy to your career, bolsters your reputation and brand, increases name recognition, and proves your capability and expertise.
Eliminate the future regret that you never wrote the book you were meant to write. Get your words out of your head and between a front cover and back cover. Feel overwhelmed just thinking about it? Need a little help getting your thoughts organized? I’m here to help! [email protected]

Michelle, This is such an important time. Not so long ago a friend of mine was just starting his book and then decided to do more study on the matter rather than just write the first draft. The next thing I knew, I was sitting next to his family at his funeral.
He never got to finish the book.
It has bothered me immensely that he died with his story untold and I will always wonder what he had to say.
It is my belief that each of us carries a gem inside that could be world changing, but we will never know if the time isn’t taken to get it written down. May those who know they carry a message be diligent in bringing it to the world stage. Someone is most certainly waiting to hear it.
Michelle Hill says
Oh Juli, what a tragic yet inspiring story. There are many who die with their story still inside them. This grieves my heart. You are so right in that each human being carries a gem inside that has the potential to change the world…one heart at a time.
Page count doesn’t matter – it’s the emotional weight of each page that counts!
People, get your story out, even if it’s just recorded interviews.
