Listen in as he reveals how he runs a multimillion-dollar company working just 35 hours per week and his incredibly ambitious goals for global expansion in 2017. An advocate of continuous growth and personal evolution, Michael speaks to the power of delegation, his 16 years of being a coaching student and how he utilizes his own reference tool, The Freedom Compass, to operate within one’s “True North” and out of the “Drudgery Zone”. A former publishing executive, Michael discusses why the publishing industry is far from dead and the best format with which to attract, and retain, Millennial readers. Finally, Michael discusses his incredibly popular book Platform and how anyone can build, and control, their own fan base leveraging his proven tactics, social media, and both Joint Venture and Affiliate relationships.
