Are you a pastor?
A lady’s question recently made me pause and think. With a little research, I discovered some traits we all want to display that could in fact make us be seen as a “pastor.”
Episode #736 July 24, 2020Hi this is Dan Miller – and yes you’re listening to the 48 Days Radio show – where each week we take 48 minutes to dive into real life questions about finding your passion, deciding what kind of life you want to live – and then finding or creating work that allows you to show up every day, excited to be able to do something that is meaningful, fulfilling – and profitable. This is where normal, indecision and ambiguity come to die. Welcome to the 48 Days Radio Show.

What’s the best way to market my “how-to” process on paying for college by only using scholarships?Launching a book is like starting any other business. Don’t try to write a book and launch it unless you approach it as a true business.
Writing the book is only 10% of the process.
Budget $3-5,000 to write a book.
A few tips:
- make your how-to a course that people can purchase for $17
- volunteer to speak with a 20-minute presentation for local organization
- be an interesting guest on podcasts and radio shows
- have a free resource that you give away that will add people to your email list so you can build a relationship with them
