Joshua Fields Millburn on Building a Book Business from Scratch

AuthorMBA: Conversations About Book Marketing, Publishing, Author Platforms, and Other Business Strategies for Authors

Joshua Fields Millburn quit his comfortable corporate job in his thirties to pursue what he truly loved—writing books. In the few years since Joshua excited the corporate business world to work for himself in the book business world, he's developed an impressive readership and author platform at TheMinimalists.com as well as published a number of popular books. Stretching his author entrepreneur wings further, he teamed up with Ryan Nicodemus and Colin Wright (last week's guest) to create Asymmetrical Press, a micro-publishing company. Any way you slice it, Joshua has proven himself a success business-minded author with MBA-like instincts. In this candid chat, Joshua reveals a lot about his transformation into a thriving author entrepreneur, and how you can follow in his footsteps. And for more, find us on Twitter @WinningEdits or #AuthorMBA.
