In this Expert In You Podcast episode, host Ann Carden welcomes guest Mike Capuzzi. They discuss the power of being your ghostwriter and the benefits of writing a book. Mike encourages clients to consider writing their own books, as no one knows their topic better than themselves. He believes that even non-expert writers can effectively write a book with coaching.
Mike emphasizes the importance of focus and specificity in a successful nonfiction book, suggesting that publishing three shorter books may be more effective. He also stresses that writing the book is just the beginning, and promoting and marketing it is crucial.
About the Guest:
Mike Capuzzi developed a deep love for books from a young age thanks to his maternal grandmother who had a vast library in her house. Growing up in Pennsylvania, Mike would often visit his grandmother and was enthralled by the collection of fictional books she possessed. Even as a young elementary school student, he would bring adult-level books to read during quiet reading time. This early passion for reading has stayed with Mike throughout his life, and he continues to indulge in books to this day.
