One good idea can change your life and everybody else's....if you know how to share it. Better yet, from one idea you can create your own empire, with you as the emperor or empress. 
If you know something that others will pay to know, that is the core. Not only do you strengthen that unique element of knowledge, you redefine and repackage that expanded core by the most appropriate of the many means 
of information dissemination: articles, a book, talks, speeches, seminars, audio and/or video tapes, a newsletter, consulting, and more... 
By sharing needed information one way it leads to sharing it by others, and the collective sharing further identifies you as the person, the perceived expert, to be sought for even further help, information, or direction in that area of inquiry. 
Empire-Building By Writing And Speaking takes you through the process, from identifying the core knowledge to putting all of the means in motion. 
The concept is old but the terms are new, and having it now in how-to form, the why's and how's, in a sensible process you can follow, is a godsend for people who know something, or can, and want desperately to share it with others. 
This book shares a way that you can do just that and still live a decent life, with the monetary as well as psychic rewards that you deserve for helping others and yourself. 
One idea can be the core of an empire 
It can make you rich and set you free 
Yet ideas alone aren't enough. If they were, the world would be full of liberated millionaires. Ideas must be directed, structured, and put in motion. They must have a purpose. So this book offers a 15-step process by which you can turn ideas, through writing and speaking, into action. It helps you disseminate your ideas and create an action plan. 
Empire-Building By Writing And Speaking suggests a form of operational order to the otherwise random chaos of knowledge so that ideas can be directed at problem-solving, goal-attaining, even profit-making. They can be the difference between sharing by one means or many, better said, the difference between enlightening a few and earning several hundred dollars or telling the world and a potential $1,000,000! 
This may be Burgett's longest remembered book by the writers and speakers he has helped. Have you the courage to be the ruler of your own empire? Then buy, read, and do.

What are you going to do with your extra 30 years? It's true, just for being alive right now you get an extraordinary gift--30 extra years! (Our kin died at 48 in 1900 but today we live to 78, with many more reaching 100.) During that time we can reinvent ourselves and create a full "second life," injecting fun, purpose, and meaning into those bonus years. Gordon Burgett to the rescue! That's what this book helps us do: lay out a plan to create a new life, doing what we want when we want! That bonanza of extra years can be a very long, sad bane if we don't plan ahead! Most Americans have a vague sense that they should set aside some surplus cash now so they will be more comfortable later. And they know that puffing three packs a day or years of rampant inactivity rewarded with half gallons of Rocky Road before bed hint of a lesser bonanza. But forgotten entirely is any positive, creative life plan that allows them to define their own second life dreams, then determine how and when they will make those dreams come true. In 216 fun-packed pages (here in LARGE PRINT but also available in paperback and digital formats), the author helps the reader create his or her own future life map. Burgett's straightforward guide for singles or couples helps them (1) review where they are now: skills, money, and health; (2)create a "Dream List," (3) prioritize and time-peg those dreams, (4) put them into doable action steps, (5) factor in the resources they have to fund them, and (6) put their resulting Action Plan into motion! The book is primarily designed to be used by those in the 40-60 age bracket, but is also an excellent life planning guide for either anybody younger saving for their future or for seniors of any age. Its 17 forms, charts, and worksheets (here downloadable in LARGE PRINT from the Internet) make the planning easy and fun. And its website backup keeps the guide current and the information growing forever. At 67 and with 23 books and 1,700+ articles in print, is the author ready for the rocking chair? "Heavens no!" Burgett retorts. "I'm just getting my second wind..." During his first wind, Gordon was an university dean, taught widely, directed a CA! RE program in Colombia and Ecuador, played minor league baseball, led a gold hunt on the Paushi-Yaco (Upper Amazon) River, miraculously sank three holes in one, and spoke 100+ times annually for 20+ years. "We're going to get old anyway," Burgett says, "so why not take control? The real issue is proaction or reaction. An exciting, productive, sharing second life doesn't just happen on its own. We must take the reins!"

Parenting & Relationships

How to Make Yourself Indispensable, Slightly Immortal, and Lifelong Rich in 18 Months! 
On the surface it looks simple: writers write something, speakers speak something, they fit it into a niche market, everybody's happy, and the doer gets rich! Alas, niche marketing is a process, not a panacea: it's a thought pattern carried to completion. A path that can lead to financial, emotional, intellectual, and spiritual fulfillment all at the same time. 
Gordon Burgett's purpose in his book is to put you on that path in one easy step ready so you can become the creator of your own wealth and ruler of your own reign, wanted and sought while you help build a better world! 
Some of the concept comes form two of his earlier books, Empire-Building By Writing And Speaking and Publishing To Niche Markets, where "core development," "topic-spoking," and TCE are first seen. 
Unique to these pages is the definition and development of niche marketing itself and how it can be used to realize your life goals, as well as the detailed explanation of the 11 means that constitute the heart of this form of niche marketing. 
Will the application of these words make you lifelong rich in 18 months? It could. But it will more likely get you centered, organized, and profitably in motion so that what is created in 18 months will be the base of a foundation of years, then decades, of healthy, happy earning and living.

Would a cool $50,000 profit from your first book come in handy? Then double that again? Read on... 
Niche publishing is the future of self-publishing. It is the INTERNET of the book world. It opens the markets, profits, and accessibility of readers to anybody with vital information, a computer, an editor, some starter cash, and knowledge of the process this book explains. 
Publishing To Niche Markets shows how to: 
* find eager buyers before you write a word 
* gather information and write your book 
* find a need those buyers will pay to meet 
* produce your book....or have it produced 
* customize your book to meet that need 
* promote and sell your book 
* test potential profits before investing 
* expand your book's contents into more books and more profits 
A publishing revolution is afoot. Until now, New York, Boston, and Chicago have been the print Mecca's. In five years, most of the books will come from places like Keokuk, Orcutt, and Old Mill. 
The difference is the computer and sale by mail (regular and e-). There are 100,000 publishers now. That will reach 200,000 by 2010. Almost all of them will be niche publishers, working out of their homes, selling specific need-meeting information to recipients known before the word is passed. 
Publishing To Niche Markets contains the password and codes for joining the revolution. It defines TCE and the three "Ps" of publishing through a straightforward 14-step process and an example. It shows why no form of publishing entails less risk or reaps more profit. 
Originally released as Self-Publishing To Tightly-Targeted Markets, this updated and revised edition keeps pace with the lightening changes in the information dissemination world. 
It's simple. If your book contains how-to information that meets the need of a specific market, you want to earn many times more than a standard publisher would pay by royalty, and you want a fat profit plus equity, buy this book, read it, and get going!
