Promotional YouTube message from Julie Broad urging business leaders, speakers, consultants, and professionals to write and publish a book in 2025 to boost thought leadership and open opportunities. Julie argues that having a published book is frequently requested in speaking applications and that delaying publication costs connections, income, and impact. She shares a personal anecdote about writing her book Self Promote and Succeed (initial draft took ~1 year to reach 75%; her team completed the book in 4 months) to illustrate the value of getting help. The speaker offers a service/team (writers + NoBoringBooks process and 'book launchers') that can produce a book with only 2–5 hours/week of client time over a year, outlines a 4-point discovery call agenda (positioning, ideal reader/benefits, leveraging the book, and how book launchers help), and ends with a CTA to complete an application and schedule a call.

Do you ever feel like a big fish stuck in a little itty bitty pond, just itching to make waves in a much bigger ocean? Well, as we step into a brand new year, the path to more prestigious stages, bigger audiences and bolder opportunities doesn't have to feel like an exclusive club. So how do you finally get past that red velvet rope? How do you make this the year you stop waiting and start leading? Well, if you're a high powered business executive, business owner, speaker, consultant, or medical professional, and you're ready to expand your thought leadership and grow Your brand in 2025, this message is for you. Here's the truth. You've probably noticed that most speaking applications ask what books have you written? Not have you written a book. Why? Well, because the right book makes you the expert. It opens doors to opportunities and gives you the credibility you need to see stand out. But every month, every year that your book isn't written is costing you. It's costing you connections, income, impact, and your future audience is still waiting to hear from you. An unpublished book can't change lives, make money, or uncover opportunities. Whether you're already a speaker, a business owner, or a professional, or you're venturing into these spaces, not having a powerful book in your arsenal is like stepping over piles of cash while turning away from the people who need you most. But let's change that. Let's make 2025 the year you finally get it done. When I was working on my latest book, Self Promote and Succeed, I faced the same struggles. Even after publishing three other books. It took me a year to get a draft and that was only 3/4 finished. That's when I realized I needed help. My team stepped in and got a writer on my team and the book was done in four months. They took care of everything. Writing, editing, design, layout, and even the marketing. The best part? My team can be your team. With just two to five hours a week most weeks for the next year, you can write and launch a book that not only transforms your life, but also the lives of those waiting to hear your message.
