When authoring a book, there are a lot of benefits that you get as a result. It’s been described as Thud Factor -not just the noise a book makes when landing on a desk, but the impact it creates for you and your business. Some of theses benefits may surprise you.
Here are 10 ways that authoring a book creates Thud Factor:
