And guess what is 274 00:12:56,160 --> 00:12:58,520 Speaker 3: gonna run up? So all the other fourteen they're gonna 275 00:12:58,520 --> 00:13:00,400 Speaker 3: be like, why we never heard of this guy before? Right, 276 00:13:00,800 --> 00:13:02,160 Speaker 3: And so for me, I would do it. 277 00:13:03,120 --> 00:13:05,079 Speaker 1: For somebody who's just starting out, it's just. 278 00:13:05,040 --> 00:13:07,199 Speaker 3: A lot of red team. To be honest with you, right, 279 00:13:07,600 --> 00:13:10,720 Speaker 3: you can't. So first of all, there's only four major publishers, right, 280 00:13:10,760 --> 00:13:13,439 Speaker 3: So it's not like there's a lot to choose from. 281 00:13:13,559 --> 00:13:17,160 Speaker 3: And you can't go to the publisher directly. There's a 282 00:13:17,200 --> 00:13:19,679 Speaker 3: middle man. You have to go through a little literary agent. 283 00:13:19,960 --> 00:13:22,040 Speaker 3: So you have to have a literary agent who first 284 00:13:22,080 --> 00:13:24,920 Speaker 3: believes in you. Once the literary agent believes in you, 285 00:13:25,040 --> 00:13:27,560 Speaker 3: now that literary agent has to has to take you 286 00:13:27,640 --> 00:13:30,400 Speaker 3: to the traditional publishing house. And in the publishing house, 287 00:13:30,400 --> 00:13:32,800 Speaker 3: once they published the book for you, there's no telling 288 00:13:32,840 --> 00:13:33,360 Speaker 3: when they're. 289 00:13:33,160 --> 00:13:35,120 Speaker 1: Gonna put the book out, right, And so I could 290 00:13:35,160 --> 00:13:39,160 Speaker 1: be writing about chat GPT, and you understand. 291 00:13:39,679 --> 00:13:41,680 Speaker 3: By the time they put the book out, chat GPT 292 00:13:41,800 --> 00:13:44,480 Speaker 3: doesn't it's not a thing no more, right, it's so common, 293 00:13:44,800 --> 00:13:47,320 Speaker 3: And so I say, for the regular person, I would 294 00:13:47,360 --> 00:13:51,520 Speaker 3: just do it yourself, right, traditional publishing, there's a there's 295 00:13:51,559 --> 00:13:54,320 Speaker 3: a process when you self pub Like this book right here, 296 00:13:54,360 --> 00:13:57,200 Speaker 3: book rich right. I put that up there because I 297 00:13:57,280 --> 00:13:59,880 Speaker 3: literally wrote that in five hours. I published it a 298 00:14:00,320 --> 00:14:02,840 Speaker 3: days I'm talking about, I voted it in five hours. 299 00:14:03,080 --> 00:14:06,280 Speaker 3: And by the time, like from five days after I 300 00:14:06,400 --> 00:14:10,719 Speaker 3: wrote it, editing, book cover design, everything, it's available on 301 00:14:10,800 --> 00:14:12,600 Speaker 3: Amazon dot Com for you to purchase. 302 00:14:12,679 --> 00:14:12,800 Speaker 2: Right. 303 00:14:13,200 --> 00:14:15,560 Speaker 3: That would not have happened if I went to a 304 00:14:15,559 --> 00:14:16,440 Speaker 3: traditional publisher. 305 00:14:16,520 --> 00:14:18,840 Speaker 1: Right.

Helping people 336 00:15:38,240 --> 00:15:40,320 Speaker 2: is what they do and as a part of their 337 00:15:40,400 --> 00:15:44,040 Speaker 2: two hundred and fifty million dollar invest in my Education Initiative. 338 00:15:44,320 --> 00:15:49,080 Speaker 2: FIDELITY is supporting eligible students from underserved communities in the Boston, Dallas, 339 00:15:49,120 --> 00:15:52,960 Speaker 2: fort Worth, and Raley Durham areas by combining scholarships with 340 00:15:53,040 --> 00:15:57,960 Speaker 2: ongoing assistance, mentorship, and better paths to post graduation employment. 341 00:15:58,400 --> 00:15:59,160 Speaker 1: Want to learn more. 342 00:15:59,280 --> 00:16:02,520 Speaker 2: If it's a fidela dot com slash black wealth. 343 00:16:02,280 --> 00:16:04,720 Speaker 3: Put out that book yourself, yo, you could get six 344 00:16:04,800 --> 00:16:06,280 Speaker 3: to seven dollars per book? 345 00:16:07,600 --> 00:16:09,800 Speaker 2: Can we just stay right there? Because what you're bringing 346 00:16:09,840 --> 00:16:11,240 Speaker 2: up is a good point? Is the royalty? 347 00:16:11,320 --> 00:16:11,560 Speaker 1: Right? 348 00:16:11,600 --> 00:16:14,360 Speaker 2: So like, if I'm self publishing, what is the percentage 349 00:16:14,440 --> 00:16:17,400 Speaker 2: or allocation that I should expect from a self publishing 350 00:16:17,440 --> 00:16:19,800 Speaker 2: book as opposed to a traditional deal where you're saying, 351 00:16:19,800 --> 00:16:22,680 Speaker 2: like I might get a dollar that might be five 352 00:16:22,680 --> 00:16:24,920 Speaker 2: percent of what the actual value of the book was. 353 00:16:25,240 --> 00:16:29,240 Speaker 2: So what's the traditional royalty rate verse the self publishing? 354 00:16:29,400 --> 00:16:29,600 Speaker 1: Yeah? 355 00:16:29,640 --> 00:16:34,480 Speaker 3: So like if you think about traditional publisher who, because 356 00:16:34,560 --> 00:16:38,280 Speaker 3: they print the books in bulk, their costs per book 357 00:16:38,320 --> 00:16:41,240 Speaker 3: is smaller. Right, So like let's say, for instance, assignment 358 00:16:41,280 --> 00:16:44,760 Speaker 3: and shoot to sign somebody and they expect to sell 359 00:16:44,920 --> 00:16:47,240 Speaker 3: one hundred thousand books, Well, if they're going to print 360 00:16:47,240 --> 00:16:50,360 Speaker 3: a hundred thousand books, they're probably paying a dollar per book. 361 00:16:50,360 --> 00:16:50,600 Speaker 2: They're not. 362 00:16:50,800 --> 00:16:52,760 Speaker 3: It's not a lot, right, they're probably because they have 363 00:16:52,840 --> 00:16:55,840 Speaker 3: these major warehouses that's printing in and the more you print. 364 00:16:55,680 --> 00:16:57,960 Speaker 1: The lower the costs. So they might be at a 365 00:16:58,080 --> 00:16:59,000 Speaker 1: dollar per book. 366 00:16:59,360 --> 00:17:02,040 Speaker 3: And now that's selling the book though, for fourteen ninety nine, 367 00:17:02,480 --> 00:17:05,160 Speaker 3: and so what they're accounting for is, all right, fourteen 368 00:17:05,240 --> 00:17:07,359 Speaker 3: ninety nine, we got to hire this person, that person, 369 00:17:07,440 --> 00:17:09,639 Speaker 3: this person, that person, and we're gonna give you a 370 00:17:09,680 --> 00:17:14,200 Speaker 3: dollar that. So let's say the cost is a dollar. 371 00:17:15,160 --> 00:17:18,120 Speaker 3: They're selling it for fourteen ninety nine. So the profit, 372 00:17:18,200 --> 00:17:21,480 Speaker 3: let's say is thirteen ninety nine. They give you a dollar, 373 00:17:21,960 --> 00:17:25,119 Speaker 3: you got twelve ninety nine. That the profit they're getting. 374 00:17:25,200 --> 00:17:28,240 Speaker 3: And even if they if they're staff they're paying five dollars, 375 00:17:28,280 --> 00:17:31,560 Speaker 3: the main company is still getting about seven dollars profit. 376 00:17:31,640 --> 00:17:35,040 Speaker 3: Where you only getting a dollar, right compared to if 377 00:17:35,080 --> 00:17:37,800 Speaker 3: you go you know, print on demand. Let's say like 378 00:17:37,840 --> 00:17:41,800 Speaker 3: an Amazon or Ingram Spark, they're just gonna charge you 379 00:17:42,240 --> 00:17:45,280 Speaker 3: the cost of the book and for distribution it's a 380 00:17:45,320 --> 00:17:46,359 Speaker 3: sixty forty split. 381 00:17:46,600 --> 00:17:49,680 Speaker 1: Right, So like for instance, this book right here, it 382 00:17:49,760 --> 00:17:50,800 Speaker 1: is four dollars to print. 383 00:17:50,800 --> 00:17:53,959 Speaker 3: It's hardcover, and you know it's it's one hundred and 384 00:17:53,960 --> 00:17:57,560 Speaker 3: eighty pages, so it's it's four dollars to print, not 385 00:17:57,680 --> 00:18:01,000 Speaker 3: four dollars. Every time I sell a book on Amazon, 386 00:18:01,080 --> 00:18:04,159 Speaker 3: I'm selling it for fourteen ninety nine. Amazon gives me 387 00:18:04,520 --> 00:18:07,760 Speaker 3: sixty percent of that, and then minus there four dollars, 388 00:18:07,760 --> 00:18:10,080 Speaker 3: you know, minus there four dollars to print, So I 389 00:18:10,240 --> 00:18:12,000 Speaker 3: might be making what six. 390 00:18:11,800 --> 00:18:13,359 Speaker 1: Dollars five dollars per book. 391 00:18:13,640 --> 00:18:16,920 Speaker 3: But again, if If and his other thing though, toru right, 392 00:18:17,600 --> 00:18:20,840 Speaker 3: if I buy the books myself, though, I'm buying them 393 00:18:20,840 --> 00:18:23,800 Speaker 3: at four dollars, and I can actually sell the books 394 00:18:23,840 --> 00:18:26,960 Speaker 3: myself for fourteen ninetynins, and now I'm making ten dollars 395 00:18:27,000 --> 00:18:28,240 Speaker 3: every time I'm selling it myself. 396 00:18:28,440 --> 00:18:30,320 Speaker 1: So here's the hat we'll get up. Get some game. 397 00:18:30,800 --> 00:18:34,200 Speaker 3: If your self published author, never send nobody to Amazon, right, 398 00:18:34,400 --> 00:18:35,560 Speaker 3: but put your book on Amazon. 399 00:18:35,640 --> 00:18:37,160 Speaker 1: You have to have your book on Amazon. 400 00:18:36,920 --> 00:18:40,679 Speaker 3: Right, because I've heard other author coaches tell people who well, 401 00:18:40,720 --> 00:18:42,760 Speaker 3: don't put it on Amazon because they take the splint 402 00:18:42,760 --> 00:18:44,520 Speaker 3: and all that stuff. The truth of the matter is 403 00:18:44,560 --> 00:18:47,240 Speaker 3: that if you don't put it on Amazon, no one's 404 00:18:47,280 --> 00:18:49,199 Speaker 3: gonna think you're serious. They're not gonna think they're a 405 00:18:49,200 --> 00:18:52,520 Speaker 3: serious author because that's how you get radio television. Right, 406 00:18:52,520 --> 00:18:54,359 Speaker 3: They're gonna they're gonna do a Google search, and you 407 00:18:54,359 --> 00:18:56,240 Speaker 3: say you wrote a book and they go to Amazon 408 00:18:56,240 --> 00:18:57,240 Speaker 3: and the book's not on Amazon. 409 00:18:57,280 --> 00:18:58,600 Speaker 1: They're not really gonna take you serious. 410 00:18:58,680 --> 00:19:01,560 Speaker 3: Right, So, yes, you want to put your book on Amazon, 411 00:19:01,640 --> 00:19:03,840 Speaker 3: you want it on Barns and Nobles, you wanted a Walmart, 412 00:19:03,880 --> 00:19:06,960 Speaker 3: you want it a Target. But when anybody of your 413 00:19:07,040 --> 00:19:10,400 Speaker 3: fans hear your voice and you're telling them to go somewhere, 414 00:19:10,520 --> 00:19:13,160 Speaker 3: telling them to go somewhere you own. So I only 415 00:19:13,200 --> 00:19:16,280 Speaker 3: tell people go to ashcatsbooks dot com. That's my website. 416 00:19:16,440 --> 00:19:18,760 Speaker 3: That is something that I own, I control. I get 417 00:19:19,080 --> 00:19:22,040 Speaker 3: a bigger markup if somebody buys my book from ashcatsbooks 418 00:19:22,040 --> 00:19:24,040 Speaker 3: dot com. But if somebody is like, oh, I like 419 00:19:24,119 --> 00:19:25,840 Speaker 3: you know what I mean, I don't remember the website, 420 00:19:25,840 --> 00:19:28,160 Speaker 3: and they go to Amazon and buy my book, they're 421 00:19:28,160 --> 00:19:30,280 Speaker 3: gonna buy the book. I'm gonna get that percentage. But 422 00:19:30,320 --> 00:19:34,080 Speaker 3: here's the other hat. Amazon is the biggest cross seller ever. 423 00:19:34,520 --> 00:19:34,720 Speaker 1: Right. 424 00:19:35,119 --> 00:19:37,000 Speaker 3: I have a book that has done a number one 425 00:19:37,040 --> 00:19:40,959 Speaker 3: bestseller based off of not Me, based off of another 426 00:19:41,040 --> 00:19:43,640 Speaker 3: rapper who put a book out, and people are partnering 427 00:19:43,680 --> 00:19:44,200 Speaker 3: my book with. 428 00:19:44,160 --> 00:19:47,480 Speaker 1: That person, and so all of their traffic was coming 429 00:19:47,520 --> 00:19:49,880 Speaker 1: to me exactly. 430 00:19:50,280 --> 00:19:52,159 Speaker 3: And so imagine if my book wasn't on there, I 431 00:19:52,160 --> 00:19:54,400 Speaker 3: wouldn't have those access, right, And so I would say 432 00:19:55,080 --> 00:19:58,080 Speaker 3: that that. You know, self publishing, if you go through 433 00:19:58,080 --> 00:20:02,120 Speaker 3: a print on demand service like Amazon Direct, you're gonna 434 00:20:02,119 --> 00:20:05,240 Speaker 3: get sixty percent minus the print costs. If you do 435 00:20:05,320 --> 00:20:08,040 Speaker 3: it yourself, you print yourself, you sell it. Now I'm 436 00:20:08,119 --> 00:20:11,359 Speaker 3: keeping ten dollars and I'm charging the customer for shipping 437 00:20:11,359 --> 00:20:13,280 Speaker 3: and all that. So so that's not coming out of 438 00:20:13,320 --> 00:20:15,320 Speaker 3: my profit. So I make way more money as a 439 00:20:15,320 --> 00:20:18,160 Speaker 3: self publisher doing it myself than I would i if 440 00:20:18,200 --> 00:20:18,840 Speaker 3: I did tradition. 441 00:20:19,000 --> 00:20:23,080 Speaker 5: All right, So before we talk about some more specific 442 00:20:23,160 --> 00:20:24,359 Speaker 5: chat GBT stuff. 443 00:20:24,080 --> 00:20:26,840 Speaker 1: Like that, the time is come, lady and gentlemen.

You dictate the tone. 818 00:37:59,600 --> 00:38:01,759 Speaker 5: You have to kind of like curate it, so it 819 00:38:01,880 --> 00:38:06,160 Speaker 5: sounds like your voice, like just fully explain that for 820 00:38:06,200 --> 00:38:10,640 Speaker 5: the average person that doesn't fully understand Yeah, So you. 821 00:38:10,600 --> 00:38:14,080 Speaker 3: Know, chat GBT, and there's other there's other you know 822 00:38:14,160 --> 00:38:18,160 Speaker 3: AI that write for you, like Jasper, like Pseudo, Right, 823 00:38:18,239 --> 00:38:20,680 Speaker 3: there's a lot of other ones that that write for 824 00:38:20,719 --> 00:38:22,640 Speaker 3: you that are actually a little more intuitive. So I 825 00:38:22,719 --> 00:38:26,320 Speaker 3: actually use a combination. I don't only use uh chat GBT, 826 00:38:27,480 --> 00:38:29,640 Speaker 3: but for the for the everyday person who wants to 827 00:38:29,719 --> 00:38:36,839 Speaker 3: understand it, it's literally having asking this AI a prompt, 828 00:38:37,080 --> 00:38:41,240 Speaker 3: and it's able to write texts based on your prompt 829 00:38:42,239 --> 00:38:45,320 Speaker 3: and and what happens though, is that the AI only 830 00:38:45,440 --> 00:38:49,560 Speaker 3: has information that's available on the Internet right now, right. 831 00:38:49,920 --> 00:38:52,000 Speaker 3: So what it does is, in a in a in 832 00:38:52,040 --> 00:38:55,680 Speaker 3: a in a flash, it's able to gather up the 833 00:38:55,880 --> 00:39:00,719 Speaker 3: millions and billions of articles on the Internet, and then 834 00:39:00,800 --> 00:39:03,799 Speaker 3: based on that knowledge, it gives you an answer to 835 00:39:03,840 --> 00:39:07,400 Speaker 3: what you ask for. The great thing about you know 836 00:39:07,480 --> 00:39:12,319 Speaker 3: chat GBT in particular, is that it cannot plagiarize, right, 837 00:39:12,680 --> 00:39:16,080 Speaker 3: and so every single thing that it's giving you, it's 838 00:39:16,200 --> 00:39:18,640 Speaker 3: giving you a new version of it every single time. 839 00:39:18,680 --> 00:39:22,279 Speaker 3: For instance, if I ask chat GPT to write a 840 00:39:22,320 --> 00:39:27,200 Speaker 3: book on podcasting, it's going to give me the outline. 841 00:39:27,480 --> 00:39:29,680 Speaker 1: But if I ask it again, it's not gonna give 842 00:39:29,680 --> 00:39:30,400 Speaker 1: me the same outline. 843 00:39:30,400 --> 00:39:33,319 Speaker 3: It's gonna give me a whole different outline because it 844 00:39:33,400 --> 00:39:35,920 Speaker 3: is programmed in a way that it cannot plagiarize. 845 00:39:35,920 --> 00:39:39,120 Speaker 1: It cannot regurgitate the same answer over and over. 846 00:39:39,360 --> 00:39:44,000 Speaker 3: So from a literary standpoint, there's some protection if you will, 847 00:39:44,160 --> 00:39:48,080 Speaker 3: or some solad that you're not just putting out anything 848 00:39:48,280 --> 00:39:48,799 Speaker 3: out there. 849 00:39:49,680 --> 00:39:51,200 Speaker 1: But here's the caution though, right. 850 00:39:51,640 --> 00:39:55,560 Speaker 3: The caution is that you know, chat GPT is only 851 00:39:55,640 --> 00:39:58,799 Speaker 3: as smart as the information that's out there. So if 852 00:39:58,840 --> 00:40:02,480 Speaker 3: you ask chat GB to write something for you, it 853 00:40:02,520 --> 00:40:04,560 Speaker 3: may give you outdated information. So I'll give you a 854 00:40:04,560 --> 00:40:07,920 Speaker 3: prime example. You know about about five years ago, six 855 00:40:08,040 --> 00:40:12,400 Speaker 3: years ago, there was a self publishing platform called create Space, 856 00:40:12,719 --> 00:40:15,520 Speaker 3: and so any of my og self publishers know that 857 00:40:15,600 --> 00:40:18,200 Speaker 3: create Space was bought by Amazon. So it does not 858 00:40:18,280 --> 00:40:22,640 Speaker 3: exist anymore, right, and it's now Kindle Direct Publishing. But 859 00:40:23,080 --> 00:40:26,160 Speaker 3: I asked chat GPT to give me a list of 860 00:40:26,200 --> 00:40:29,759 Speaker 3: self publishing platforms, and it told me create Space. If 861 00:40:29,800 --> 00:40:32,440 Speaker 3: I didn't know, though, right, if I didn't know that 862 00:40:32,560 --> 00:40:37,240 Speaker 3: this was outdated information, I could have published outdated information 863 00:40:37,320 --> 00:40:40,640 Speaker 3: and I would look crazy, right. And so while it 864 00:40:40,719 --> 00:40:44,120 Speaker 3: does help you finish things faster, it is not a 865 00:40:44,120 --> 00:40:47,719 Speaker 3: replacement for your knowledge. You gotta know what you're talking about. 866 00:40:48,080 --> 00:40:51,560 Speaker 1: Right, because there's many times and that's why I use it. 867 00:40:51,600 --> 00:40:55,400 Speaker 1: I use it as an assistant. Right. So like, for instance, if. 868 00:40:55,239 --> 00:40:59,680 Speaker 3: I hire somebody to research something for me, it's like 869 00:40:59,760 --> 00:41:01,600 Speaker 3: I'm don't one it's my knowledge. 870 00:41:02,000 --> 00:41:02,920 Speaker 1: I just don't want. 871 00:41:02,760 --> 00:41:05,279 Speaker 3: I don't have the time, Like it's too much time 872 00:41:05,320 --> 00:41:07,279 Speaker 3: to do the research and all, So go ahead, I'll 873 00:41:07,320 --> 00:41:09,680 Speaker 3: pay somebody to do the research. They're gonna come back 874 00:41:09,719 --> 00:41:12,200 Speaker 3: with all of the information and I'm gonna sightle through. 875 00:41:12,520 --> 00:41:13,879 Speaker 3: I'm gonna use this, I'm not gonna use this, I'm 876 00:41:13,880 --> 00:41:15,600 Speaker 3: gonna use this, I'm not gonna use that. Well, so 877 00:41:15,640 --> 00:41:18,080 Speaker 3: instead of paying somebody to do it, do chat GBT. 878 00:41:18,560 --> 00:41:20,759 Speaker 3: But again, if you don't have the knowledge, like if 879 00:41:20,800 --> 00:41:24,600 Speaker 3: you don't know, and that's the other thing, the the 880 00:41:24,840 --> 00:41:31,120 Speaker 3: output is only astrong as the input pause if applicable, right, 881 00:41:31,480 --> 00:41:37,200 Speaker 3: and so you have to like whatever you're gonna case 882 00:41:37,840 --> 00:41:44,239 Speaker 3: the case gonna be crazy to but but but like 883 00:41:44,480 --> 00:41:47,880 Speaker 3: like when you look at what chat GBT is gonna 884 00:41:47,920 --> 00:41:51,480 Speaker 3: give you if you ask a stupid question, if you 885 00:41:51,680 --> 00:41:54,520 Speaker 3: ask a question that doesn't give you the right like 886 00:41:55,000 --> 00:41:56,319 Speaker 3: like if you don't write, if you don't ask the 887 00:41:56,360 --> 00:41:58,600 Speaker 3: right question, you're not gonna get the right output, right, 888 00:41:58,680 --> 00:42:02,399 Speaker 3: And so you you actually have to know what to ask, right, 889 00:42:02,760 --> 00:42:06,000 Speaker 3: and so you know, like for instance, you know, yeah, 890 00:42:06,040 --> 00:42:07,640 Speaker 3: I teach people how to write books, but I also 891 00:42:07,640 --> 00:42:10,200 Speaker 3: teach people how to build a business from that book, 892 00:42:10,239 --> 00:42:12,400 Speaker 3: how to create fifteen streams if they come from that book. 893 00:42:12,920 --> 00:42:14,719 Speaker 3: That ain't nothing. I didn't look that up. That's something 894 00:42:14,719 --> 00:42:17,839 Speaker 3: that I like I battle tested that, like I you know, 895 00:42:18,040 --> 00:42:20,759 Speaker 3: since two thousand and nine figured out all these these 896 00:42:20,800 --> 00:42:23,560 Speaker 3: different ways to make money from a book.

And now the independent bookstores 1358 01:04:07,960 --> 01:04:10,000 Speaker 3: are gonna know that you self published the book, and 1359 01:04:10,000 --> 01:04:10,320 Speaker 3: and and. 1360 01:04:10,280 --> 01:04:12,320 Speaker 1: A lot of them kind of shy away from it. 1361 01:04:12,200 --> 01:04:14,120 Speaker 3: Because they don't feel like the quality is the best 1362 01:04:14,280 --> 01:04:15,160 Speaker 3: when it's self published. 1363 01:04:15,160 --> 01:04:17,120 Speaker 2: That the stigma still it's a couple of questions I got. 1364 01:04:17,160 --> 01:04:18,880 Speaker 2: But is that stigma still there? I know before it 1365 01:04:18,920 --> 01:04:20,880 Speaker 2: was like if you did the self published you couldn't 1366 01:04:20,880 --> 01:04:22,160 Speaker 2: be on the New York Times Bestseller? 1367 01:04:22,320 --> 01:04:23,080 Speaker 1: Is that still true? 1368 01:04:23,160 --> 01:04:26,280 Speaker 3: Yeah, it's still it's still a stigma, right, It's still 1369 01:04:26,280 --> 01:04:29,800 Speaker 3: a stigma that's still there because again, there are people 1370 01:04:29,880 --> 01:04:32,480 Speaker 3: there bad There's always bad actors, right, There's always people 1371 01:04:32,680 --> 01:04:35,760 Speaker 3: who put out garbage, and so I so so even 1372 01:04:35,800 --> 01:04:38,760 Speaker 3: though I'm a self published author, I don't like identifying 1373 01:04:38,880 --> 01:04:42,040 Speaker 3: as a as a you know, self published author. I 1374 01:04:42,040 --> 01:04:46,320 Speaker 3: was gonna say, but I don't like I don't like 1375 01:04:46,400 --> 01:04:50,200 Speaker 3: identifying as a self published author because when you identify 1376 01:04:50,440 --> 01:04:52,920 Speaker 3: as a self published author, a lot of people have 1377 01:04:53,160 --> 01:04:56,480 Speaker 3: this this stigma where they look at another book that 1378 01:04:56,600 --> 01:04:59,560 Speaker 3: has been self published and it wasn't great quality, and 1379 01:04:59,560 --> 01:05:01,520 Speaker 3: they're not willing to kind of give you that shot. 1380 01:05:01,840 --> 01:05:06,400 Speaker 3: So I wouldn't, you know, I would not do extended distribution. Instead, 1381 01:05:06,760 --> 01:05:08,560 Speaker 3: what you would do is you would go to Ingram 1382 01:05:08,600 --> 01:05:13,440 Speaker 3: Spark because Ingram is the largest distributor on the East coast, 1383 01:05:13,640 --> 01:05:16,080 Speaker 3: where if you go to Ingram Spark, you get your 1384 01:05:16,080 --> 01:05:18,640 Speaker 3: book in Walmart, you get your book in Target, are 1385 01:05:18,760 --> 01:05:22,520 Speaker 3: thousands of independent bookstores. You know are are You know 1386 01:05:22,560 --> 01:05:25,640 Speaker 3: they use ingram to buy books. And now, and this 1387 01:05:25,680 --> 01:05:28,280 Speaker 3: is why I say press releases is dope. Because now 1388 01:05:28,600 --> 01:05:32,040 Speaker 3: once you upload your book into Amazon, you upload your 1389 01:05:32,080 --> 01:05:35,520 Speaker 3: book into ingram Spark. Now it's available for sale on 1390 01:05:35,640 --> 01:05:39,280 Speaker 3: all platforms. Now you do a press release announcing that 1391 01:05:39,320 --> 01:05:41,400 Speaker 3: your book is out. So now when you announce your 1392 01:05:41,400 --> 01:05:43,760 Speaker 3: book is out, But then also you want to buy 1393 01:05:43,840 --> 01:05:45,320 Speaker 3: individual copies yourself. 1394 01:05:45,480 --> 01:05:47,520 Speaker 1: Right, Never make the mistake. 1395 01:05:47,200 --> 01:05:51,040 Speaker 3: Of putting a book out but not having copies yourself, 1396 01:05:51,240 --> 01:05:54,320 Speaker 3: because if it starts to take off, you might get 1397 01:05:54,320 --> 01:05:56,919 Speaker 3: people inviting you to do book signings. You might get 1398 01:05:56,920 --> 01:05:58,840 Speaker 3: people who want who want you to come on their 1399 01:05:58,880 --> 01:06:00,240 Speaker 3: shows or things of that nature. 1400 01:06:00,280 --> 01:06:02,320 Speaker 1: And if you don't have a physical copy yourself, that 1401 01:06:02,320 --> 01:06:03,080 Speaker 1: that's not gonna work. 1402 01:06:03,160 --> 01:06:07,280 Speaker 3: Right, And so now you order physical physical copies yourself. 1403 01:06:07,680 --> 01:06:11,560 Speaker 3: Create a website that is attached to the book. Right, 1404 01:06:11,880 --> 01:06:14,760 Speaker 3: So for instance, you know all of my books are 1405 01:06:14,800 --> 01:06:17,360 Speaker 3: ascats books dot com. But when I when I you know, 1406 01:06:17,640 --> 01:06:20,600 Speaker 3: wrote abundance is your birthright. I bought the domain for 1407 01:06:20,720 --> 01:06:24,880 Speaker 3: bookoabundance dot com. Why because now I can readdirect it anywhere. 1408 01:06:24,880 --> 01:06:27,080 Speaker 3: Instead of telling people well, you'll get Abundance is your 1409 01:06:27,080 --> 01:06:29,400 Speaker 3: birth right. It's available everywhere. I can say, go to the 1410 01:06:29,400 --> 01:06:32,080 Speaker 3: book offabundance dot com. And now I can reroute it 1411 01:06:32,120 --> 01:06:34,680 Speaker 3: to Amazon if I want to, or I can rewrite 1412 01:06:34,720 --> 01:06:37,840 Speaker 3: it back to my page where where I house it. 1413 01:06:38,080 --> 01:06:42,120 Speaker 3: And so buy your own books, create a website. Shopify 1414 01:06:42,360 --> 01:06:44,760 Speaker 3: really dope, So I would say, just go go open 1415 01:06:44,840 --> 01:06:48,560 Speaker 3: up a Shopify store, upload your book on there, get 1416 01:06:48,600 --> 01:06:51,720 Speaker 3: your domain name, and then now have people go. So 1417 01:06:51,800 --> 01:06:53,920 Speaker 3: when you go on interviews, when you do press releases, 1418 01:06:53,920 --> 01:06:55,840 Speaker 3: when you do all that stuff, you tell people to 1419 01:06:55,880 --> 01:06:58,720 Speaker 3: go to your website. They'll see your book and then 1420 01:06:58,920 --> 01:07:00,760 Speaker 3: they'll know they'll know how to how to you know 1421 01:07:00,800 --> 01:07:03,840 Speaker 3: how to reach you. And literally, if you do all 1422 01:07:04,040 --> 01:07:06,880 Speaker 3: like I left nothing out. If you do all of that, 1423 01:07:07,280 --> 01:07:10,600 Speaker 3: you got your book written from beginning to end, and 1424 01:07:10,640 --> 01:07:12,560 Speaker 3: you could do all of that in about seven days. 1425 01:07:12,560 --> 01:07:14,840 Speaker 2: How does you create the price points for each book? 1426 01:07:15,320 --> 01:07:18,880 Speaker 1: Great question? So I like to it depends on what 1427 01:07:18,880 --> 01:07:19,640 Speaker 1: I want the book to do. 1428 01:07:19,720 --> 01:07:19,880 Speaker 2: Right. 1429 01:07:19,920 --> 01:07:21,560 Speaker 3: So when I wrote From the Block to the Bank, 1430 01:07:22,000 --> 01:07:24,760 Speaker 3: I wrote it on my fortieth birthday, and they were 1431 01:07:24,880 --> 01:07:27,640 Speaker 3: there were forty principles in the book. So I priced 1432 01:07:27,680 --> 01:07:30,240 Speaker 3: it at forty dollars from a marketing standpoint, and people 1433 01:07:30,320 --> 01:07:33,040 Speaker 3: bought it for forty dollars. When when Julia and I 1434 01:07:33,440 --> 01:07:35,920 Speaker 3: worked on his book Rich and Righteous, he was like, yo, 1435 01:07:35,960 --> 01:07:37,040 Speaker 3: I want to I want to sell it for one 1436 01:07:37,120 --> 01:07:38,600 Speaker 3: hundred dollars, and. 1437 01:07:38,480 --> 01:07:40,840 Speaker 1: He sold it for a hundred dollars. Right, So it. 1438 01:07:40,840 --> 01:07:44,000 Speaker 3: Really is, you know, based on you know, you know, 1439 01:07:44,440 --> 01:07:46,480 Speaker 3: if you have a marketing reason, you could price it 1440 01:07:46,480 --> 01:07:49,800 Speaker 3: anywhere you want to. But for me, you know, I 1441 01:07:49,880 --> 01:07:54,080 Speaker 3: always think like mass production, so I always price it 1442 01:07:54,120 --> 01:07:57,080 Speaker 3: at what the traditional folks are doing, right, and so 1443 01:07:57,640 --> 01:08:01,680 Speaker 3: on average, when a when assignment and the shooster puts 1444 01:08:01,680 --> 01:08:03,520 Speaker 3: out a book, they usually put it out for like 1445 01:08:03,600 --> 01:08:07,160 Speaker 3: fourteen ninety nine for paperback, it's usually nine ninety nine 1446 01:08:07,160 --> 01:08:11,080 Speaker 3: for the electronic version, and it's usually about twenty nine 1447 01:08:11,160 --> 01:08:13,400 Speaker 3: to twenty four ninety nine for the hard covers. So 1448 01:08:14,000 --> 01:08:16,519 Speaker 3: I follow that same model just so that when people 1449 01:08:16,600 --> 01:08:19,200 Speaker 3: look at the book and they're comparing, you know, my 1450 01:08:19,320 --> 01:08:22,880 Speaker 3: book to another book, is still sort of like comparable. 1451 01:08:23,640 --> 01:08:25,680 Speaker 3: And then also here's the other trick is that I 1452 01:08:25,760 --> 01:08:30,519 Speaker 3: also undercut myself on my website, right, and so if 1453 01:08:30,800 --> 01:08:33,160 Speaker 3: I put it on Amazon for fourteen ninety nine, but 1454 01:08:33,200 --> 01:08:34,960 Speaker 3: I'm gonna put it on my website for twelve ninety 1455 01:08:35,040 --> 01:08:37,640 Speaker 3: nine or no, ninety nine, right, because I get a 1456 01:08:37,680 --> 01:08:40,040 Speaker 3: bigger margin when they buy for me anyway. And so 1457 01:08:40,200 --> 01:08:42,800 Speaker 3: now if somebody's like price shopping, like, I want you 1458 01:08:42,840 --> 01:08:44,760 Speaker 3: to get the work directories from me, and so I 1459 01:08:45,280 --> 01:08:46,599 Speaker 3: usually like undercut myself. 1460 01:08:46,720 --> 01:08:48,280 Speaker 2: Hard On just came out and he says getting the 1461 01:08:48,320 --> 01:08:51,920 Speaker 2: work directly. You spoke about chat GVT and some of 1462 01:08:51,960 --> 01:08:54,000 Speaker 2: the audiences and they they've heard it, but they don't 1463 01:08:54,000 --> 01:08:56,960 Speaker 2: really know how it works. Open aye, chat gt the 1464 01:08:57,040 --> 01:09:00,320 Speaker 2: fastest growing platform in the history of the Internet. Yeah, 1465 01:09:01,120 --> 01:09:03,960 Speaker 2: is their tiers? How much is it to be a member? Like? 1466 01:09:03,960 --> 01:09:04,679 Speaker 2: How does that work? 1467 01:09:04,880 --> 01:09:05,080 Speaker 1: Yeah? 1468 01:09:05,120 --> 01:09:08,000 Speaker 3: So, I mean, you know, one of the things that 1469 01:09:08,360 --> 01:09:10,559 Speaker 3: I enjoy now is that when it when chad GPT 1470 01:09:10,720 --> 01:09:15,400 Speaker 3: first came out, they literally had millions of people joined immediately, 1471 01:09:15,400 --> 01:09:17,240 Speaker 3: and it would it would like crash you know what 1472 01:09:17,240 --> 01:09:19,600 Speaker 3: I mean, you know, it would crash the Internet, like 1473 01:09:19,680 --> 01:09:22,800 Speaker 3: crash their thing. You know, I was thinking about a 1474 01:09:22,840 --> 01:09:25,200 Speaker 3: whole lot crashed the Internet and I ain't even Internet, 1475 01:09:26,320 --> 01:09:29,559 Speaker 3: but but but it literally crashed it, right, And so 1476 01:09:30,880 --> 01:09:33,679 Speaker 3: they now created a tier where you can have get 1477 01:09:33,720 --> 01:09:37,200 Speaker 3: like VIP if you will, where if anybody is on there, 1478 01:09:37,280 --> 01:09:40,120 Speaker 3: they'll kick off the free people first. So I paid 1479 01:09:40,120 --> 01:09:42,600 Speaker 3: twenty dollars a month, right, twenty dollars a month to 1480 01:09:42,600 --> 01:09:44,599 Speaker 3: get access to it whenever I want to. In fact, 1481 01:09:44,760 --> 01:09:47,360 Speaker 3: when I wrote this book, they didn't have that option yet. 1482 01:09:47,439 --> 01:09:50,080 Speaker 3: So I literally wrote this at nine pm because I 1483 01:09:50,160 --> 01:09:52,040 Speaker 3: was like timing and I was like, yo, what Yo, 1484 01:09:52,080 --> 01:09:54,400 Speaker 3: what is the time where most people are sleep or 1485 01:09:54,439 --> 01:09:55,559 Speaker 3: most people aren't using it? 1486 01:09:55,720 --> 01:09:57,519 Speaker 1: So I was like, oh, nine pm, I'm on there. 1487 01:09:57,600 --> 01:09:59,760 Speaker 3: So so during the day it's too many people on there, 1488 01:09:59,800 --> 01:10:02,080 Speaker 3: so would go like nine am and I stayed up 1489 01:10:02,120 --> 01:10:04,559 Speaker 3: till like three in the morning to finish it. But 1490 01:10:04,600 --> 01:10:06,360 Speaker 3: now I have to do that I can get access 1491 01:10:06,400 --> 01:10:08,760 Speaker 3: to it at any time. And so you know, at 1492 01:10:08,760 --> 01:10:12,280 Speaker 3: the time of this recording, they're up to chat GPT four, 1493 01:10:12,840 --> 01:10:15,240 Speaker 3: which is which is a which is a way faster 1494 01:10:16,400 --> 01:10:19,880 Speaker 3: got more information and I and I get first DIBs 1495 01:10:19,920 --> 01:10:20,200 Speaker 3: to it. 1496 01:10:20,680 --> 01:10:21,559 Speaker 1: And that's the great thing. 1497 01:10:21,680 --> 01:10:24,000 Speaker 3: And what I what I believe about about the platform 1498 01:10:24,120 --> 01:10:26,920 Speaker 3: is because as it continues to get smarter and smarter 1499 01:10:27,000 --> 01:10:30,120 Speaker 3: and smarter, then I'm gonna have access to more information. 1500 01:10:30,240 --> 01:10:32,800 Speaker 3: I can just dump out the information faster and now. 1501 01:10:33,040 --> 01:10:34,680 Speaker 3: And that's the other thing is though, too, is that 1502 01:10:34,760 --> 01:10:36,559 Speaker 3: I look at it as a way that I could 1503 01:10:36,600 --> 01:10:40,240 Speaker 3: serve the people more, right, because imagine if a book 1504 01:10:40,280 --> 01:10:43,160 Speaker 3: took me, like my first book took me eight months 1505 01:10:43,200 --> 01:10:45,760 Speaker 3: to write. So guess what, I'm not promoted. I'm not 1506 01:10:45,920 --> 01:10:48,360 Speaker 3: giving out information while I'm the writing mode now. So 1507 01:10:48,439 --> 01:10:51,240 Speaker 3: for eight months, I'm out the game. But now I 1508 01:10:51,280 --> 01:10:53,200 Speaker 3: got a week and then now I'm now I'm now 1509 01:10:53,360 --> 01:10:54,960 Speaker 3: not hitting the streets. 1510 01:10:54,960 --> 01:10:56,000 Speaker 1: Good money dot com. 1511 01:10:56,040 --> 01:10:58,920 Speaker 5: So like people like me, I don't read books, but 1512 01:10:58,960 --> 01:11:02,439 Speaker 5: I do listen to audio. Yes, so that's a huge market. 1513 01:11:02,800 --> 01:11:04,760 Speaker 5: So what's to deal with the audio books? This is 1514 01:11:04,800 --> 01:11:08,479 Speaker 5: the same type of vibe for the self publishing situation. 1515 01:11:08,600 --> 01:11:10,280 Speaker 1: Yeah, so so so that's a great question. 1516 01:11:10,320 --> 01:11:13,519 Speaker 3: So like I remember I wrote a book, The wake 1517 01:11:13,600 --> 01:11:15,599 Speaker 3: Up Call, you know, based on Jay Z's four forty 1518 01:11:15,600 --> 01:11:17,000 Speaker 3: four album, and. 1519 01:11:17,240 --> 01:11:18,280 Speaker 1: I didn't do audio. 1520 01:11:18,760 --> 01:11:21,080 Speaker 3: And then all of my my truckers, my Uber drivers, 1521 01:11:21,080 --> 01:11:23,519 Speaker 3: they was like, yo, I need the audio version. And 1522 01:11:23,600 --> 01:11:25,719 Speaker 3: so you know, there's a there's a couple of ways 1523 01:11:25,720 --> 01:11:30,400 Speaker 3: that you can do audio. My favorite just for right 1524 01:11:30,439 --> 01:11:33,560 Speaker 3: now is a c X uh so Apple Charlie x 1525 01:11:33,640 --> 01:11:36,240 Speaker 3: Ray dot Com, ac X dot Com, which is an 1526 01:11:36,280 --> 01:11:40,080 Speaker 3: Amazon company, and it allows you to upload your audio 1527 01:11:40,200 --> 01:11:43,120 Speaker 3: version of your book, attach it to your Amazon and 1528 01:11:43,120 --> 01:11:45,640 Speaker 3: then that's how it gets on Audible. That's how it 1529 01:11:45,640 --> 01:11:49,920 Speaker 3: gets on Apple Books, eyebooks. I use that right now 1530 01:11:49,960 --> 01:11:52,400 Speaker 3: because you know, like most people who listen to audio 1531 01:11:52,400 --> 01:11:53,680 Speaker 3: books go to Audible, you know. 1532 01:11:53,680 --> 01:11:57,000 Speaker 1: What I'm saying. But there's other platforms, you know. 1533 01:11:57,000 --> 01:11:59,679 Speaker 3: I know spotifyers bought I forget the name of the company, 1534 01:11:59,680 --> 01:12:04,080 Speaker 3: Bespotify actually just bought an audiobook company to now get 1535 01:12:04,120 --> 01:12:08,200 Speaker 3: audiobooks on Spotify. I'm watching that closely right because Apple 1536 01:12:08,280 --> 01:12:11,240 Speaker 3: Music has some audiobooks too, absolutely. Yeah, friends, I know 1537 01:12:11,280 --> 01:12:13,800 Speaker 3: I had his book on Apple Music. Yeah, ding Dash, 1538 01:12:13,840 --> 01:12:15,840 Speaker 3: she got an audio book on Apple Music. 1539 01:12:15,920 --> 01:12:18,120 Speaker 1: Yeah. So some of the times the books actually go 1540 01:12:18,120 --> 01:12:19,400 Speaker 1: to Apple Music as well. Yeah. 1541 01:12:19,439 --> 01:12:22,479 Speaker 3: So ACX does both, you know, So when you go 1542 01:12:22,479 --> 01:12:25,439 Speaker 3: to acx dot com, it sends your book to Audible 1543 01:12:25,520 --> 01:12:28,679 Speaker 3: and Apple Music. So that so so that so that's 1544 01:12:28,720 --> 01:12:32,880 Speaker 3: that platform. And then I'm watching Spotify because if if 1545 01:12:32,920 --> 01:12:35,360 Speaker 3: you know, there's a lot of users on Spotify, and 1546 01:12:35,400 --> 01:12:38,439 Speaker 3: so Spotify knows how to convert people into listening to 1547 01:12:38,479 --> 01:12:39,120 Speaker 3: books on there. 1548 01:12:39,400 --> 01:12:41,080 Speaker 1: You know, you want to be there as well, how 1549 01:12:41,080 --> 01:12:42,040 Speaker 1: do you get paid for audio? 1550 01:12:42,280 --> 01:12:46,800 Speaker 3: So audio is still still percentage, right, so I want 1551 01:12:46,800 --> 01:12:49,240 Speaker 3: to say it's a little high. I want to say 1552 01:12:49,240 --> 01:12:52,160 Speaker 3: maybe it's like seventy percent that you get for the audio. 1553 01:12:52,240 --> 01:12:55,120 Speaker 3: So every time somebody buys your audio, you get seventy 1554 01:12:55,160 --> 01:12:58,360 Speaker 3: percent of the price. And then and then whatever distributor 1555 01:12:58,360 --> 01:13:00,880 Speaker 3: you use it, which is ACX, Amazon on, they get 1556 01:13:00,920 --> 01:13:03,840 Speaker 3: the thirty percent, which is dope because you only do 1557 01:13:03,920 --> 01:13:04,599 Speaker 3: it one time. 1558 01:13:05,080 --> 01:13:06,679 Speaker 1: There's no costs, there's no print. 1559 01:13:07,280 --> 01:13:09,760 Speaker 5: A lot of audio books that are so like for me, 1560 01:13:09,840 --> 01:13:12,120 Speaker 5: right because I listen to a lot of audiobooks that 1561 01:13:12,320 --> 01:13:15,200 Speaker 5: let's take Apple Music, we don't I'm not paying for that. 1562 01:13:15,200 --> 01:13:17,960 Speaker 1: It's just ten dollar month subscription to Apple. It's like streaming. 1563 01:13:18,240 --> 01:13:22,640 Speaker 5: So but then also even on Audible, it's like I 1564 01:13:22,680 --> 01:13:24,280 Speaker 5: feel like you get like packages where you get like 1565 01:13:24,320 --> 01:13:26,759 Speaker 5: ten books bundled together, something like if you pay us 1566 01:13:26,800 --> 01:13:28,519 Speaker 5: like nine dollars a month and then you just get 1567 01:13:28,520 --> 01:13:30,760 Speaker 5: an unlimited amount of books. Yeah, so it's not like 1568 01:13:30,840 --> 01:13:33,160 Speaker 5: those that book I would have to pay ten dollars 1569 01:13:33,240 --> 01:13:35,200 Speaker 5: for yep. But if I'm listening to the audio book, 1570 01:13:35,680 --> 01:13:41,000 Speaker 5: I'm more so paying the service for the either Audible 1571 01:13:41,120 --> 01:13:44,240 Speaker 5: or Apple or wherever, and then they just I guess 1572 01:13:44,280 --> 01:13:46,719 Speaker 5: that is in a big pot and they're just trickling 1573 01:13:46,760 --> 01:13:47,120 Speaker 5: it down. 1574 01:13:47,280 --> 01:13:50,080 Speaker 2: Yeah, you're saying Apple music or the books, because Apple 1575 01:13:50,160 --> 01:13:51,559 Speaker 2: music is Apple music. 1576 01:13:51,600 --> 01:13:53,560 Speaker 1: That's what I'm saying. The books, I know, that's what 1577 01:13:53,560 --> 01:13:53,920 Speaker 1: I'm saying. 1578 01:13:54,200 --> 01:13:55,920 Speaker 2: There are books on Apple music. But then the books 1579 01:13:55,960 --> 01:13:57,120 Speaker 2: one is free, then you have to pay. 1580 01:13:57,240 --> 01:13:57,479 Speaker 1: Yeah. 1581 01:13:57,840 --> 01:14:01,640 Speaker 3: So so right now, every time some and and and 1582 01:14:01,640 --> 01:14:08,680 Speaker 3: it's hard to it's hard to know, right full transparency, 1583 01:14:08,920 --> 01:14:12,559 Speaker 3: it's hard to track how many people actually brought your audiobook. Right, 1584 01:14:12,920 --> 01:14:16,960 Speaker 3: But the license or the agreement that we have with 1585 01:14:17,439 --> 01:14:21,840 Speaker 3: ACS is that every time somebody purchases it, then you're 1586 01:14:21,880 --> 01:14:22,719 Speaker 3: gonna get that. 1587 01:14:22,600 --> 01:14:25,120 Speaker 5: Because you can do it too, because you can buy 1588 01:14:25,160 --> 01:14:27,800 Speaker 5: an audiobook, right because I've done that before, where I 1589 01:14:27,880 --> 01:14:32,280 Speaker 5: just buy fourteen dollars for rich Dad, poor dad audio book. Yeah, 1590 01:14:32,439 --> 01:14:35,320 Speaker 5: but I think it's moving out of that model where 1591 01:14:35,320 --> 01:14:37,320 Speaker 5: it's more of a streaming model. 1592 01:14:37,680 --> 01:14:38,280 Speaker 1: Yeah. Yeah. 1593 01:14:38,320 --> 01:14:41,800 Speaker 3: So so like for right now, anybody who consumes my 1594 01:14:41,920 --> 01:14:45,479 Speaker 3: audio book, I get seventy percent of my retail price. 1595 01:14:45,880 --> 01:14:49,760 Speaker 3: And so I'm assuming that Amazon and all these other 1596 01:14:49,840 --> 01:14:53,200 Speaker 3: platforms what they do is they have this big pot 1597 01:14:53,360 --> 01:14:56,120 Speaker 3: and then and then you know, maybe are paying based 1598 01:14:56,160 --> 01:15:00,080 Speaker 3: on when somebody is actually consuming your audio and so 1599 01:15:00,520 --> 01:15:02,559 Speaker 3: you know, you know, I would assume that if somebody 1600 01:15:02,640 --> 01:15:05,360 Speaker 3: has I mean something, you know, I don't know the 1601 01:15:05,960 --> 01:15:10,000 Speaker 3: mathematics around it, but again there's no really way, like 1602 01:15:10,080 --> 01:15:12,599 Speaker 3: I gotta trust what they say, right, So so if 1603 01:15:12,840 --> 01:15:15,759 Speaker 3: if a thousand people listen to my my audio book 1604 01:15:16,080 --> 01:15:18,160 Speaker 3: and they tell me that it's only two hundred, then 1605 01:15:18,200 --> 01:15:20,439 Speaker 3: I'm gonna have There's no way to verify because they 1606 01:15:20,439 --> 01:15:22,559 Speaker 3: don't give me access to sort of like their back 1607 01:15:22,640 --> 01:15:24,920 Speaker 3: office or whatever if you will, So there's no way 1608 01:15:24,920 --> 01:15:27,479 Speaker 3: for me to verify it. But I still say, though, 1609 01:15:27,520 --> 01:15:30,640 Speaker 3: it's still worth worth doing because it's still. 1610 01:15:30,400 --> 01:15:32,520 Speaker 1: Having your content out there more. 1611 01:15:32,560 --> 01:15:36,000 Speaker 2: Than if you didn't have it. Pretty good absolute yeah, I. 1612 01:15:35,920 --> 01:15:38,680 Speaker 1: Mean I've made I've made a lot of money off. 1613 01:15:38,479 --> 01:15:41,519 Speaker 3: Of my audio books again because a lot of people 1614 01:15:41,560 --> 01:15:44,479 Speaker 3: are always on the go, and so you know, once 1615 01:15:44,520 --> 01:15:49,040 Speaker 3: you have the book, you know, written, you can now 1616 01:15:49,160 --> 01:15:50,040 Speaker 3: record the book. 1617 01:15:50,080 --> 01:15:51,040 Speaker 1: And here's the other things. 1618 01:15:51,040 --> 01:15:54,000 Speaker 3: So now we're talking about AI, you can actually I know, 1619 01:15:54,040 --> 01:15:58,120 Speaker 3: Adobe has a great artificial intelligence for audio where now 1620 01:15:58,320 --> 01:16:00,040 Speaker 3: once you record your audio. 1621 01:15:59,760 --> 01:16:02,560 Speaker 1: Book, so you could throw it through the Adobe. 1622 01:16:02,080 --> 01:16:04,200 Speaker 3: App and it all clean it up and make it 1623 01:16:04,240 --> 01:16:07,200 Speaker 3: sound like it's studio. So you don't even have to 1624 01:16:07,360 --> 01:16:10,439 Speaker 3: really go to an actual studio and pay thousands of 1625 01:16:10,439 --> 01:16:11,679 Speaker 3: dollars to record your book. 1626 01:16:11,960 --> 01:16:13,719 Speaker 1: You could record your book on an iPhone. 1627 01:16:13,720 --> 01:16:17,080 Speaker 3: There's a mic that I use by sure as an 1628 01:16:17,240 --> 01:16:20,000 Speaker 3: h U r E called the MV eighty eight. You 1629 01:16:20,120 --> 01:16:22,400 Speaker 3: throw that to your I phone like it could be 1630 01:16:22,400 --> 01:16:25,240 Speaker 3: people talking in the background. It muffles them out. I 1631 01:16:25,240 --> 01:16:28,400 Speaker 3: can then take that audio, throw it into Adobe and 1632 01:16:28,840 --> 01:16:31,280 Speaker 3: it's AI and cleaning up and make it sound professional 1633 01:16:31,320 --> 01:16:32,080 Speaker 3: and now uploading. 1634 01:16:32,120 --> 01:16:32,840 Speaker 1: Now I got my audio. 1635 01:16:33,040 --> 01:16:36,200 Speaker 2: You see a lot of people, especially commentators, not commentators, 1636 01:16:36,200 --> 01:16:38,400 Speaker 2: but beat writers, when they go into locker rooms, they 1637 01:16:38,400 --> 01:16:40,160 Speaker 2: got that joint plugged in and that's what they're using. 1638 01:16:40,280 --> 01:16:41,760 Speaker 2: But what you say it makes sense, right. I think 1639 01:16:41,800 --> 01:16:43,599 Speaker 2: there was a report that for the first time in history, 1640 01:16:43,960 --> 01:16:48,720 Speaker 2: the audio listenership in viewership. I guess the information had 1641 01:16:48,800 --> 01:16:51,439 Speaker 2: passed the viewership of actual television. And so you can 1642 01:16:51,479 --> 01:16:53,320 Speaker 2: see that the push to a content, even in the 1643 01:16:53,360 --> 01:16:56,160 Speaker 2: podcast space where you're finding millions and millions of people 1644 01:16:56,160 --> 01:16:59,200 Speaker 2: coming up with new shows, it makes sense why you 1645 01:16:59,200 --> 01:17:02,280 Speaker 2: should have that. I got a question for you, though, sure, right, 1646 01:17:02,600 --> 01:17:06,240 Speaker 2: and it just from historically the books you've written mine, 1647 01:17:06,320 --> 01:17:09,200 Speaker 2: right right, yeah, you know the influence their Final Call, 1648 01:17:09,240 --> 01:17:12,160 Speaker 2: you know, the Nipsey book that you wrote. Hip hop 1649 01:17:12,240 --> 01:17:16,160 Speaker 2: was a big influence in today's climbing with the music 1650 01:17:16,200 --> 01:17:18,800 Speaker 2: that that's out is there's still the same amount of 1651 01:17:18,840 --> 01:17:22,080 Speaker 2: influence for you to write another book based on the 1652 01:17:22,160 --> 01:17:23,160 Speaker 2: top of the hip hop. Yo. 1653 01:17:23,439 --> 01:17:26,400 Speaker 3: That's a great question because I thought about it, and 1654 01:17:26,479 --> 01:17:28,360 Speaker 3: I had a top list though, like I like, I 1655 01:17:28,400 --> 01:17:29,679 Speaker 3: wanted to write a Drake book. 1656 01:17:31,040 --> 01:17:32,960 Speaker 1: I had a Shock book that I had in mind. 1657 01:17:33,120 --> 01:17:36,600 Speaker 3: I had these other celebrity that I wanted to to 1658 01:17:36,760 --> 01:17:39,200 Speaker 3: use to write books. 1659 01:17:42,720 --> 01:17:45,920 Speaker 1: And you know, and you know what, though, that's a 1660 01:17:45,920 --> 01:17:46,479 Speaker 1: great question. 1661 01:17:46,640 --> 01:17:50,640 Speaker 3: You know why I say no is because uh, we 1662 01:17:50,800 --> 01:17:53,080 Speaker 3: the boys, you know what I'm saying to say, like 1663 01:17:53,360 --> 01:17:55,760 Speaker 3: and and I and I don't say this.

You know, my 1746 01:21:53,560 --> 01:21:57,200 Speaker 3: my son who is seven years old, is watching, you know, 1747 01:21:57,280 --> 01:21:59,920 Speaker 3: me do my things with no you know, nonfiction books. 1748 01:22:00,400 --> 01:22:03,439 Speaker 3: My wife do her thing with the children's books, and 1749 01:22:03,479 --> 01:22:06,760 Speaker 3: she's like, dad, ma, I want to earn some money, right, 1750 01:22:06,840 --> 01:22:08,880 Speaker 3: and so so he that's the language that he has. 1751 01:22:08,920 --> 01:22:11,240 Speaker 3: He's not he's like asking us for money. He see 1752 01:22:11,320 --> 01:22:13,320 Speaker 3: us putting the work east. I want to earn some money. 1753 01:22:13,479 --> 01:22:15,679 Speaker 3: So we're like, all right, what other way? What best way? 1754 01:22:15,800 --> 01:22:18,040 Speaker 3: Let's let I'll show you how to do this. Son, 1755 01:22:18,400 --> 01:22:20,479 Speaker 3: literally you know what I'm saying. And so and so 1756 01:22:20,680 --> 01:22:23,479 Speaker 3: now you know we we put his name is ash 1757 01:22:23,479 --> 01:22:25,080 Speaker 3: as well, so it's like ash Love's cash and he 1758 01:22:25,120 --> 01:22:27,120 Speaker 3: puts his book out. Me and my daughter, right, she 1759 01:22:27,280 --> 01:22:28,920 Speaker 3: cool now, right, so she too cool. We got to 1760 01:22:28,920 --> 01:22:31,679 Speaker 3: get back in the book business. But we we wrote 1761 01:22:31,680 --> 01:22:34,800 Speaker 3: a book together when she was three years old called 1762 01:22:34,800 --> 01:22:37,000 Speaker 3: Taylor's Way Life, Letters through the Odds of a three 1763 01:22:37,040 --> 01:22:39,599 Speaker 3: year Old. And so I think that you know, not 1764 01:22:39,680 --> 01:22:42,880 Speaker 3: only are we preaching it, but we're practicing it as well, 1765 01:22:42,920 --> 01:22:47,000 Speaker 3: because again these are all like this is in our trust, right, 1766 01:22:47,080 --> 01:22:49,240 Speaker 3: like this is this is not just like all right, 1767 01:22:49,360 --> 01:22:52,360 Speaker 3: we're gonna pass down money and assets, but now like 1768 01:22:52,400 --> 01:22:55,400 Speaker 3: who's gonna own the book catalog? 1769 01:22:55,600 --> 01:22:55,800 Speaker 2: Right? 1770 01:22:56,160 --> 01:22:58,280 Speaker 3: You know, like I said, Napoleon Hill has the Napoleon 1771 01:22:58,320 --> 01:23:01,840 Speaker 3: Hill Foundation still make money to this day. His family 1772 01:23:01,960 --> 01:23:04,920 Speaker 3: still off of his intellectual property. And so we're teaching 1773 01:23:04,960 --> 01:23:06,719 Speaker 3: him that at an early age. 1774 01:23:06,880 --> 01:23:09,479 Speaker 5: So let's rewind us back to the audio books. I 1775 01:23:09,479 --> 01:23:13,679 Speaker 5: had another question before we switch topics. How do you 1776 01:23:13,680 --> 01:23:15,479 Speaker 5: so there's different ways that you can do the audio 1777 01:23:15,640 --> 01:23:17,840 Speaker 5: because you can get in the booth and record it 1778 01:23:17,880 --> 01:23:20,479 Speaker 5: yourself you're reading the book. But I've listened to audio 1779 01:23:20,520 --> 01:23:22,799 Speaker 5: books with the author is they have a different person. 1780 01:23:23,080 --> 01:23:25,839 Speaker 5: They have people that just specialize in just doing voices. 1781 01:23:27,080 --> 01:23:30,040 Speaker 5: What do you recommend because that could be difficult too. 1782 01:23:30,080 --> 01:23:32,560 Speaker 5: People you underestimate how difficult it is to read a 1783 01:23:32,640 --> 01:23:35,720 Speaker 5: hundred pages and like you know, it's like even if 1784 01:23:35,760 --> 01:23:39,599 Speaker 5: you're writing it but reading it, and that's a skill 1785 01:23:39,600 --> 01:23:41,759 Speaker 5: set with it, and it has to have a certain 1786 01:23:41,840 --> 01:23:43,479 Speaker 5: voice and it so it's like you could be a 1787 01:23:43,479 --> 01:23:45,720 Speaker 5: good author, but you might not be able to necessarily 1788 01:23:46,080 --> 01:23:48,960 Speaker 5: be able to dictate that verbally. 1789 01:23:49,080 --> 01:23:49,320 Speaker 2: Yeah. 1790 01:23:49,360 --> 01:23:51,439 Speaker 1: Yeah, So what's your thoughts on that? Yeah? 1791 01:23:51,439 --> 01:23:54,160 Speaker 3: So I say this, right, so, like all of you know, 1792 01:23:54,240 --> 01:23:56,840 Speaker 3: even ACX, a lot of the places you upload the book, 1793 01:23:57,479 --> 01:24:01,280 Speaker 3: they'll have wish over actors that you pay to read 1794 01:24:01,320 --> 01:24:02,080 Speaker 3: the book for you. 1795 01:24:02,800 --> 01:24:04,040 Speaker 1: There's different ways you can do it. 1796 01:24:04,120 --> 01:24:06,760 Speaker 3: You can you can you can pay the you could 1797 01:24:06,760 --> 01:24:10,479 Speaker 3: pay them to do it, or you could pay them 1798 01:24:10,520 --> 01:24:13,080 Speaker 3: and pay them a royalty. Right, so every time somebody 1799 01:24:13,160 --> 01:24:16,439 Speaker 3: buys it, they get a percentage of the book. I say, 1800 01:24:16,520 --> 01:24:19,800 Speaker 3: if it's if it's the choice between uh doing it 1801 01:24:19,840 --> 01:24:23,280 Speaker 3: and not doing it, then go that route. Ultimately, though, 1802 01:24:23,439 --> 01:24:25,280 Speaker 3: I would say it's best that it's in your voice. 1803 01:24:25,479 --> 01:24:29,080 Speaker 3: And the reason why is again, when I teach people 1804 01:24:29,160 --> 01:24:31,599 Speaker 3: to write books, I'm teaching you how to write a 1805 01:24:31,640 --> 01:24:35,800 Speaker 3: book that can create a business as well. And you 1806 01:24:35,880 --> 01:24:38,439 Speaker 3: want your people to fall in love with your voice, right, 1807 01:24:38,520 --> 01:24:42,040 Speaker 3: you want people to be able to hear the book, 1808 01:24:42,280 --> 01:24:45,040 Speaker 3: hear your personality. Because that's the other thing is that 1809 01:24:45,400 --> 01:24:49,160 Speaker 3: I'm not for everybody. Right, there's people that's like, yo, bro, 1810 01:24:49,280 --> 01:24:53,320 Speaker 3: this dude yelling Like I remember when I first started 1811 01:24:53,320 --> 01:24:55,599 Speaker 3: inside the Vault, people in the comments like yo, why 1812 01:24:55,600 --> 01:24:58,120 Speaker 3: see yelling so much? Right, So I'm not for everybody, 1813 01:24:58,240 --> 01:25:01,800 Speaker 3: and I understand that. But there are a select few 1814 01:25:01,800 --> 01:25:04,160 Speaker 3: people who love like yo asking me hype'. 1815 01:25:04,200 --> 01:25:05,200 Speaker 1: I love his energy, you know. 1816 01:25:05,520 --> 01:25:08,360 Speaker 3: And so imagine if I had somebody else read my book, 1817 01:25:09,280 --> 01:25:12,360 Speaker 3: and now the person will have my energy. Now the 1818 01:25:12,400 --> 01:25:15,479 Speaker 3: person who would probably pay me fifty thousand to work 1819 01:25:15,479 --> 01:25:17,719 Speaker 3: with me one on one because they like my energy, 1820 01:25:17,920 --> 01:25:20,439 Speaker 3: they're not they're not rocking with me, right, you know 1821 01:25:20,520 --> 01:25:23,560 Speaker 3: you have a different temperament. Imagine imagine you wrote a 1822 01:25:23,560 --> 01:25:24,559 Speaker 3: book and I've read your book. 1823 01:25:25,840 --> 01:25:29,519 Speaker 6: Imagine like, yeah, I'm watch your consent be like, well, 1824 01:25:29,560 --> 01:25:32,800 Speaker 6: hold on, I did not expect that you know what 1825 01:25:32,840 --> 01:25:35,240 Speaker 6: I'm saying, And so I would think that you want 1826 01:25:35,240 --> 01:25:37,080 Speaker 6: to read your book because you cool? 1827 01:25:37,120 --> 01:25:37,759 Speaker 1: Like you cool. 1828 01:25:38,080 --> 01:25:40,639 Speaker 3: And so now when they when they hearing you, they're 1829 01:25:40,680 --> 01:25:43,599 Speaker 3: hearing your voice like like fifty fansis like fifty reads 1830 01:25:43,600 --> 01:25:45,960 Speaker 3: his own books. And when you hear it, though, you 1831 01:25:46,040 --> 01:25:49,240 Speaker 3: hear you hear fifty right, and you could tell he reading, 1832 01:25:49,439 --> 01:25:51,759 Speaker 3: you know, you could tell he reading, but you still 1833 01:25:51,840 --> 01:25:54,760 Speaker 3: get fifties essence if you will when he's reading. 1834 01:25:54,800 --> 01:25:57,800 Speaker 5: But that's also a career path. That's a career path 1835 01:25:57,840 --> 01:26:01,599 Speaker 5: with so reading reading. How much you get how much 1836 01:26:01,640 --> 01:26:02,479 Speaker 5: money you get paid for that? 1837 01:26:02,720 --> 01:26:03,479 Speaker 1: Man, it depends. 1838 01:26:03,520 --> 01:26:05,679 Speaker 3: So like I think I think you could get anywhere 1839 01:26:05,680 --> 01:26:08,920 Speaker 3: between you know, fifteen hundreds about four thousand dollars. 1840 01:26:10,120 --> 01:26:13,719 Speaker 5: I think Rick Ross should do that to like people 1841 01:26:13,840 --> 01:26:18,000 Speaker 5: just special just other any books like he did. 1842 01:26:18,240 --> 01:26:20,200 Speaker 1: Yeah, but I mean, like he's like Morgan Freeman. 1843 01:26:20,280 --> 01:26:23,439 Speaker 5: Some people have special voices where it's like I would 1844 01:26:23,560 --> 01:26:27,120 Speaker 5: just listen to Rick Ross just reading about anything because 1845 01:26:27,160 --> 01:26:28,320 Speaker 5: it's like it's like a movie. 1846 01:26:28,479 --> 01:26:29,160 Speaker 1: Yeah, you know what I'm saying. 1847 01:26:29,280 --> 01:26:31,439 Speaker 3: That's a fact, though, I like personally know I would 1848 01:26:31,439 --> 01:26:33,880 Speaker 3: pay Rick Ross to be with my book.

And so I have a a nonprofit that 1881 01:28:02,479 --> 01:28:05,960 Speaker 3: I started called the Abundance Code. Code stands for creating 1882 01:28:06,000 --> 01:28:07,599 Speaker 3: opportunities despite the environment. 1883 01:28:08,200 --> 01:28:10,200 Speaker 1: And I would love to do. 1884 01:28:10,280 --> 01:28:14,400 Speaker 3: Many documentaries on people who have are formally incarcerated, like 1885 01:28:14,400 --> 01:28:16,640 Speaker 3: a Wallow, like a Wall Street trapper, like like a 1886 01:28:16,760 --> 01:28:19,759 Speaker 3: chef Jeff, like these people who are you know, formally 1887 01:28:19,800 --> 01:28:22,280 Speaker 3: incarcerated but are but are killing it on another level. 1888 01:28:22,640 --> 01:28:27,080 Speaker 3: Do these many documentaries. So definitely creating movies and things 1889 01:28:27,080 --> 01:28:30,519 Speaker 3: of that nature. And you know, because Troy says, so 1890 01:28:30,560 --> 01:28:32,800 Speaker 3: we go do something, you know what I'm saying, and 1891 01:28:32,840 --> 01:28:34,640 Speaker 3: so and so it's funny though, because you know, my 1892 01:28:34,640 --> 01:28:36,479 Speaker 3: wife and I my wife had had actually had the 1893 01:28:36,560 --> 01:28:42,440 Speaker 3: idea of doing, you know, turning her books into into cartoons, 1894 01:28:42,520 --> 01:28:45,600 Speaker 3: you know.
