BTB53: Quitting his consulting job to selling 8 million copies: John Strelecky

Before the Bestseller


John lives the truth he speaks about as he quit his consulting job to pursue a higher purpose and hustled his way into becoming a world famous author.

He tells me about how he got a few copies out initially just by going out to local meet ups and handing books directly to people while having a thoughtful conversation.

We also talk about his writing process, and other marketing tools that have helped him along the way.
