Ever Wanted to Chit Chat with Your Favorite Author?

That’s exactly the opportunity the Read to Lead Podcast provides every week starting one week from tomorrow! You are more than a ‘fly on the wall.’ I want you to feel like you’re a part of the conversation, not an eavesdropper. In fact, there are several ways to participate (more on that in a moment). In the meantime, prepare to learn and be challenged by some of today’s most successful and inspiring authors.

Three’s Company

The Read to Lead Podcast launches July 16th with four episodes, including an introductory episode and THREE FULL INTERVIEWS: Dan Miller (career/personal development), Robert D. Smith (personal development/productivity) and John Lee Dumas (entrepreneurship/business). Careful, your head just might explode!

In the coming weeks, we’ll follow that with author and blogger extraordinaire Jeff Goins, New York Times best-selling authors Jay Baer and Jonah Berger, and Smart Passive Income’s Pat Flynn.

And, interviews we’re currently working on for the fall include Dan Pink, Chris Brogan, Jon Acuff, Liz Wiseman, Michael Hyatt and G. Richard Shell.

Feature Your Blog on the Show!

Next, we’ll be recording our interview with the Wharton School’s professor of marketing Jonah Berger, author of the New York Times best-seller Contagious: Why Things Catch On. It attempts to address why products get word of mouth, and how social influence shapes everything from the cars we buy to the clothes we wear to the names we give our children.

Promote your blog or website when you pose your own question to Jonah. You can do that just by visiting this link:

Simply state your name, mention your website or blog and then ask your question. This is a great way to promote your site to thousands of people AND get to the bottom of that nagging marketing question you’ve always wanted answered.

I’ll even randomly pick one of the questions I use on the show and award that person a free book from my personal library. My wife says I’ve gotta start getting rid of some of ’em anyway so, hey, why not make it fun?

So click that link, ask your question and…oh yes! Leave a comment below and make sure you’re ready to begin downloading the debut episodes coming your way next Tuesday!
