Must read: 279 Days to Overnight Success
In: entrepreneur| ideas
24 Jun 2009
Last night I had the opportunity to meet Chris Guillebeau, author of the free ebook 279 Days to Overnight Success. I first found out about Chris and his blog, The Art of Nonconformity through a post on Seth Godin’s blog. It was 279 Days that convinced me to finally launch this site (something I had been thinking about for some time.) The book gave me the kick in the butt I needed to get serious and do it.
The book outlines exactly how Chris built his (impressive) online community of followers and shares all of the lessons he learned along the way. You’ll walk away with a clear understanding of the steps to take in order to get your project off the ground.
If you are thinking about blogging or building an online community, I highly suggest you grab a copy.
