Reddit mentions of Platform: Get Noticed in a Noisy World

I'm an avid reader of business books and have read all of these. Anything Tim Ferris is garbage in my opinion. That being said, there are three books you have to read:

1. 48 Days To The Work You Love by Dan Miller
   
   
2. The ONE Thing: The Surprisingly Simple Truth Behind Extraordinary Results by Gary Keller
   
   
3. Platform: Get Noticed in a Noisy World by Michael Hyatt.
   
   You will get so much mileage out of those three books alone and they're all very easy reads.

The name of the game today is: platform. With a website, a blog, a youtube, channel, etc.... you can get the word out on something you've made. If you get enough subscribers, followers etc.... you can get an audience to get your book. Something like 2%, but it could vary. Books I would recommend would be:

Platform: how to get noticed in a noisy world by the former publisher of Thomas Nelson Publishing

The art of Social Media by Guy Kawasaki He's the former Chief Evangelist at Apple. A great small book that has as it's premise someone who is using social media to promote a book.

And if you want to go the traditional route, give these books a try:

A few years back I asked Tim Challies how he got his first contract and he said he wrote the first two chapters, created an outline of the rest of the book, and submitted a query letter to publishers. It did help that he had a platform over at challies.com so he had some name recognition. And if none of that works, self-publishing works too.
