The <strong>fee-based publishing program</strong> is intended to provide brand savvy authors the opportunity to gain <strong>bestseller level exposure</strong> and status as a <strong>recognized authority</strong> in their area of expertise.</p>
<p>&#8220;We help entrepreneurial authors share  their expertise through publishing a book, and then we work with them to  use that book to further define their identity, build their reputation  and grow their business,&#8221; explains Leanne Harvey,  director of marketing, Entrepreneur Press. &#8220;We do this using the reach,  media exposure, business partners and publishing expertise of  Entrepreneur &#8212; something that no other publishing option can compete  with.&#8221;</p>
<p>Authorship is a ready marketing strategy used often by successful entrepreneurs, such as <strong>Robert Kiyosaki,</strong> <strong>Suze Orman,</strong> and <strong>Donald Trump.</strong> Given its close proximity to <strong>Entrepreneur Magazine&#8217;s</strong> readership and resources, the Entrepreneur House Authors program definitely deserves consideration by business driven authors.</p>
<p>Entrepreneurs using a book to grow their business should visit <strong><a href="http://www.entrepreneurhouseauthors.com/" target="_blank">www.entrepreneurhouseauthors.com</a></strong> for more information on this innovative publishing opportunity.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><a class="highslide" href="http://thehustletownchronicle.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/02/gladwell.jpg"><img class="alignright size-medium wp-image-863" src="http://thehustletownchronicle.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/02/gladwell-225x300.jpg" alt="" width="225" height="300" /></a>Bestselling author <strong>Malcolm Gladwell</strong> is known for his titles <strong>The Tipping Point,</strong> <strong>Blink,</strong> and<strong> Outliers.</strong> He is also a widely sought after speaker. <strong>Gideon Rachman</strong> is a writer for the <strong>Financial Times</strong> who recently shared space with Gladwell on the lecture circuit.</p>
<p>After Gladwell&#8217;s riveting speech, Rachman provided a <strong>key takeaway:</strong></p>
<p><em>So how does Gladwell do it? Afterwards, I broke through the  autograph-hunters surrounding him and asked him how he managed to time  his talk so beautifully &#8211; so that it ended bang on 45 minutes, without  ever looking at his watch. He answered &#8211; &#8220;I know it may not look like  this. But it’s all scripted. I write down every word and then I learn it  off by heart. I do that with all my talks and I’ve got lots of them.&#8221;</em></p>
<p><strong>Memorizing a presentation</strong> allows freedom to roam around the podium, and may be just the technique to really connect with your audience. Read <a href="http://blogs.ft.com/rachmanblog/2010/02/the-secrets-of-malcolm-gladwell/"><strong>Rachman&#8217;s post</strong></a> for more insight on Gladwell&#8217;s approach.</p>
