Do you ever wonder how to write a non-fiction book, and how to land your first publishing deal?
Are you looking for the next boost in your business or career? Maybe having a book to showcase your expertise and grow your personal brand is exactly what you need.
Does it get the premium spot on your bookshelf?
What if you created a business card, that wasn’t tossed away, but cherished?
Your book will share your message while you sleep! Books turn your professional expertise into content that helps you to sell more, for years to come.
A few years ago, I decided to write my own book together with my business partner Candice Kilpatrick Brathwaite.
Our book Big Rich Money: How To Turn Your Business Intentions Into A Profitable Company published in English on August 9, 2021, and in Finnish a few months later.
Our book was an Amazon Bestseller within the first two weeks after publishing in the USA, and the first edition of the Finnish book (published by Basam Books) sold out in less than five weeks.

What if your book could be the entry point to your expertise, and your personality and voice?
After the success of Big Rich Money book, I founded Crush Movement in Helsinki, Finland, and Candice landed a corporate job at JP Morgan Chase in New York City.
Our additional book projects went on hold, but stay tuned for additional books from us in the future.
We have over 20 years of collective experience in business and marketing strategy for international companies of all sizes. Together we demystify money blocks, entrepreneurial mindset, branding, strategy, marketing, and how to build sustainable business models in our upcoming book. Our universal success-producing advice is based on our accomplishments from viral campaigns for household name brands reaching a hundred million consumers, and witnessing multi-million dollar startup failures - and anything in between.
We have been bloggers, content creators, and marketing strategists for around 15 years, and while we both have self-published a book in the past, you could say we are both relatively new in book writing and publishing.
However, we wrote the Big Rich Money in less than four months (in two languages), negotiated a publishing deal without an agent and had multiple publishers interested in working with us.
And bottom line, still, years after publishing the Big Rich Money book, people contact me because they have read the book.
Nobody remembers what kind of social media posts I was publishing four years ago, but a book - it’s a CV and a business card that has a long shelf life.
