If you want to “short-cut” the book writing process, and get your book FINISHED fast, here’s an idea:
Did you know that a 2-hour speech or workshop IS a 150 page book?
>>> It is!
Here’s the breakdown for you…
Most people speak at approximately 150 words per minute. (Here in Texas… it’s more like 87 words per minute)
Seriously though…
If you have two hours of seminar/workshop/speech content — you have enough information for YOUR own book.
The fact is, you can get your book written – finished — in no time at all, if you know the proven model.
I talked about it in my teleseminar, “The Pitfalls And Profit Potential Of Public Speaking!”
Hear the replay at no cost:
http://www.speakerformula.com/replay
Also –
In week #7 of “The Speaker Formula” profitable speaker protege coaching series, I cover this in depth in the training module, “Profitable Product Income Secrets.”
Combine that with week #2, “How to Write A Speech People Will Pay To Hear,” and you have the formula for getting your book DONE.
I’ve removed ALL the mystery. And, reduced it down to the lowest common denominator.
You can do it…
You just need to know the model — and follow the model.
I’d love to have you in the upcoming Speaker Formula coaching group — BUT…
>>> Here’s the bad news!!! <<<
I ONLY have 1 spot left as of this morning.
And, I have 4 people scheduled to announce it to their lists today.
BIG lists!
In fact, they think we still have two spots (another was snapped up late yesterday).
That means — you MUST act fast if you even THINK you might want to participate.
Do this:
1) Listen to the teleseminar replay at:
>>> http://www.speakerformula.com/replay
2) Read the complete briefing and details on the page (below the recording replay)
3) Follow the instructions on the page for submitting “The 7 Questions!”

Please…
If you’re at all “on the fence” — get with me ASAP –
Otherwise… YOU will miss out!
4) You can now BOTH stream the teleseminar, OR download the mp3 files to listen to on your ipod, etc.
Do this…
Listen to the teleseminar.
Submit the 7 questions.
Let’s talk by phone.
It was a breakthrough…
For a guy who only made $2,400 my first six months as a speaker — it was pretty astounding for me to walk away with $110,000.00 in sales from a 67 minute seminar.
Think about it.
In under two hours I made MORE THAN most people make in a year… or two years.
It wasn’t a polished speech.
In fact, I held an outline in my hand most of the seminar while I spoke.
It was fresh, brand new material I had never shared in public.
You can…
Hear the whole story on my teleseminar, “The Pitfalls and Profit Potential of Public Speaking!”
And find out how you can do this too…
Listen here. Do it NOW!
PS: If you’ve considered participating in my “Speaker Formula” - move quickly… there are only 3 spots left. (as of Thurs, March 8 2007)

I’m going to help you get your first information product completed.
And, it’s not going to cost you anything additional.
I may regret this decision later — but…
Here’s the scoop:
In my professional speaker protege coaching series I teach how vitally important it is to have information products — aka “Training Programs” — to sell to your audiences.
It’s THE fastest way to double, triple or quadruple your speaking income — even more.
In fact, my mentor told me years ago, “The speaking business will make you rich, and the product business will make you wealthy.”
I’ve proved his words of wisdom are TRUE!
Now…
In the 7th week of the 8-wk coaching program, I teach an entire module called,
>>> “Profitable Product Income Secrets.”
I teach you a simple, step-by-step system for creating information products your audiences will SWARM after — and snap up as soon as you make them available.
And, I teach you how to sell them before your presentations… from the platform… and after your speaking engagements.
But…
Some people need a little more hand-holding to get their product DONE!
So, I’ve made a decision today that I may regret later — I’m going to help YOU and each of my other Speaker Formula proteges get your first information product completed.
Get this…
By the time you’re finished with the 8-week Speaker Formula coaching series, you’ll ALSO have your own information product to sell to your audiences.
I’m only going to guarantee this “over the top” … value-added service for the coaching group that starts next week.
and…
I reserve the right (and probably will) charge an additional fee for this in future groups.
At this point, there are ONLY 3 spots left in the coaching program, so you need to do the following:
2) Answer the 7 questions as instructed at the bottom of the replay page.
3) Set a time to speak with me by phone.
When we talk, I’ll explain the information product creation process to you — how this is going to work for you.
And, I’ll help you get off and rolling FAST in the Speaker Formula coaching group.
Act now…

Here’s the short answer…
This coaching series is right for you if:

JP Maroney here… with a quick story:
Back in the mid-90’s I was in the magazine publishing business. I owned a company that published a magazine targeted to the 50-Plus market.
Some idiots called it the “senior market.”
Nothing could be further from the truth!
Long story short — I feel in love with this demographic. People “50-plus.”
>>> Rapidly growing. >>> Flush with cash. >>> Willing to spend.
I was SOLD on it.
Anyhow… our publication was well-loved and we attracted a lot of really good advertisers to it.
People who — like me — understood the importance of “reaching out” to the 50-plus crowd with their products and services.
At around the same time, I had joined “Toastmasters” through the recommendation of a close friend.
My goal: To improve my public speaking skills.
As I got involved in Toastmasters, I discovered that I really enjoyed speaking.
I put together a speech called “Gray Hair Everywhere: How To Profit From The 50-Plus Market.”
And my life changed forever.
I started going around to every group that would have me — delivering that speech.
Chambers of Commerce breakfasts and luncheons.
Rotary Clubs. Kiwanis. JC’s… ACs / DCs… … you name it.
And a funny thing happened.
Every time I would give that speech, people would come up to me afterward and want to talk about buying advertising in the magazine.
Here’s the kicker — I NEVER “Sold them” advertising during my speech. In fact, I only briefly mentioned the magazine.
They were attracted by what I had to say about the opportunity of the “50-Plus Market.”
And, therein lies the secret.
Selling By “Speaking”… on something that people want.
I literally fell into the idea of “Speaking To Sell” — products and services.
There’s a lot more to this story, and also what lead me into a six-figure (later seven-figure) speaking business after I sold my magazines in the Summer of 1999.
You can listen in as I “TELL-ALL” on the replay of my teleseminar, “The Pitfalls and Profit Potential of Public Speaking” here:
Then…
After you listen to the recording, if you’d like to discuss how you can use “Speaking” to sell more of your products or services — plus have a TON of fun in the process — submit the “7 Question Application” you’ll find at:

Talk again soon…

Probably one of the greatest tragedies of life is that so many people underutilize their personal potential. I know people who can sing, I mean really sing, but they don’t do a single thing with it. I know people who could write masterpiece fiction novels, but never produce a single paragraph. I personally know a handful of people who have tremendous talent and ideas for starting their own business, but don’t step out.
Why?
I think that most of them don’t really understand the possibilities of their potential. They don’t see the value in what they have to offer society. They minimize their talents and abilities, and never achieve the goals or dreams planted within their hearts.
I wrote a poem sometime back for these kinds of people. It is called…
“Your Dreams…Your Destiny” ———————– You were given big dreams That You could fulfill, The faith and belief Upon which to build. You were given the eyes To observe the needs, And within your heart Faith planted a seed. Now regardless what force Might stand in your way, You now know the words In response you can say. “Oh be though removed and cast into the sea, for I’m destined to live these dreams given to me.” —————
“Your Dreams…Your Destiny”
———————– You were given big dreams That You could fulfill, The faith and belief Upon which to build.
You were given the eyes To observe the needs, And within your heart Faith planted a seed.
Now regardless what force Might stand in your way, You now know the words In response you can say.
“Oh be though removed and cast into the sea, for I’m destined to live these dreams given to me.”
—————
Please, if you’re one of those people with a book, a business, a new career, a hobby, a poem, a song inside of you, take what you’ve got, and take it to the max. Use what you have. Don’t wait until you have everything you think you need to succeed. Just take what you’ve got, and take it to the max.
Here are my four steps to maximizing your unique personal potential…
Step One: Recognize it!
Take a look at yourself. What special talents do you have? What skills have you acquired? What interests you most? What are you good at? That is your unique personal potential.
It may take some time, but you were given special talents and abilities with which you can serve others. Look around you. What needs exist that you can service? Helping other people should be the foundation on which you build your future.
You might help other people by selling them a product that simplifies their life. Or you might provide a service that make their life easier. You might write a book that entertains or informs.
Look within yourself, and around you as well. You will discover, and recognize your unique personal potential.
Perhaps you are not maximizing your potential on your job. Take a look around. Is there room for improvement. Could you apply your skills to enhance a certain system or process at your place of employment. It is an exciting feeling to know you have personally made improvements that improve service or increase productivity.
Step Two: Energize it!
It is not enough to just have potential. You need a catalyst to set it in motion. Your dreams provide that motivation. Many people call what I do motivational speaking. But, motivation can’t come from a speaker, it must come from within you.
Find something that excites you, something that will keep you excited even when times are tough. That excitement can come a sense of accomplishment, or financial rewards. Develop a burning desire to fulfill your dream. That burning desire will energize your unique personal potential.
Step Three: Mobilize it!
Put your unique personal potential to work. It is like a parked car. If it does not take you somewhere it is useless. Put your potential into action. Many people avoid this step because they are afraid to take risks.
To paraphrase something Abraham Lincoln said… good things come to those who wait, but only what’s left over by those who didn’t. Get out of your comfort zone and take action. Read the chapter in this book called Get up, Get going, or Get out of the way.
Step Four: Maximize it!
Now you’ve put your unique personal potential to work, what next? Right? Keep adjusting and improving. The first time you write a book, it will not be your best. That’s OK. The first time you get on stage to sing, it will not be your best.
That’s OK.
The first time you make a sales presentation, it will not be your best. That’s OK. Take what you learn each time and improve. Maximize your unique personal potential by continually growing and developing yourself. You have unique personal potential…take it to the MAX!

Just finished watching my DVR recording of the Dallas Cowboys / Arizona Cardinals game. Pretty good game.
Looking at the score, you’d think Dallas must have done something amazing. Not really…
OK… OK… Tony Romo is looking really good as the new starting quarterback. And the Dallas defense had some solid plays.
But, look at the game more closely and you’ll see a continuation of Dallas’ “penalty packed” season. Another reason why they’re leading the league in penalty yardage.
But… when the 4th quarter counted down — the COWBOYS came out on top. They won!
And guess what…
In this game, “Good Enough” was good enough.
They weren’t exceptional. They made tons of mistakes.
But they were still “good enough” to beat Arizona.
The challenge would be… what happens when they face a much tougher team? A team that (unlike Arizona) doesn’t come into the game with a straight losing season?
Then what?
They’ll have to bring their game up to an entirely different level. Or be destroyed.
They’ll have to “FOCUS” or “FIZZLE.”
Now, think about your business…
Are you Great? Are you Exceptional?
Or, are you just “good enough?”
When you come up against a strong competitor in your industry — will you prevail? Or will you fail?
Think about that…
Think about what it takes to be MORE THAN good enough! Think about what you can do to be EXCEPTIONAL!
Think about what you can do to be GREAT!
Because, good enough is good enough. But good enough will never be GREAT!!!
OK… it’s not Gallup. But, the results from my “GURU Poll” last week are interesting.
Here it is:
67.57% said: “I think the term GURU is positive!
32.43% said: “I think the term GURU is negative!
What do you think about those results? Feel free to leave a comment here on my blog. (hint: click on the number next to the title of this post to leave a comment)
