This popular expression points to something much more lucrative than a whole bunch of back scratching. It’s at the core of Black Card Books’ Fund It Speech Campaign, which puts you in front of an audience at no cost to the host organization other than a commitment to purchase an agreed-upon number of copies of your book. Your back is scratched; your client’s back is scratched. Everyone is a winner.

AUTHOR SPOTLIGHT Millie Leung - Sharing Her Life-Changing Journey

To The Benefit Of Thousands

As a highly sought after mentor, speaker and trainer, Millie leung is the embodiment of anything being possible if you put your heart into what you believe and go for it.

Millie’s drive and commitment to her message has seen her speak to audiences throughout the Asia-Pacific region, in such locales as Australia, Malaysia, Hong kong and Taiwan. Her most recent speaking engagement in Singapore saw her address more than 10,000 entrepreneurs from across Asia, all anxious to hear, and benefit from, her techniques for starting and building a successful business, and the mindset that type of success requires.

In June, Millie’s book, Mind And Money Makeover: How To Transform Your Life In 3 Years Or Less And Live Your Dreams, will be launched. On its pages, Millie reveals a proven five-step system that will transform your life and enable you to realize your dreams, shatter common and limiting beliefs that prevent you from reaching your full potential, and offer you a proven formula for generating more income.

As Millie says, one doesn’t need luck or special talents to change one’s life. One just has to decide it’s time to do so.

It was in September 2011 that Millie began her journey towards financial freedom. As a senior merchandising manager with a Seattle-based firm, she seemingly had all she needed to make her happy, but inside, she was consumed by a desire to work towards achieving her dreams, not someone else’s. By November 2013, together with her husband, she had established 10 streams of income – a number that continues to grow – and she has become financially free.

Now Millie’s goal is to share her journey with as many people as possible, ensuring they avoid the mistakes she made, are exposed to the lessons she learned and inspire them to get started on their own journey towards financial freedom by building a profitable home business.

To learn more about Millie leung’s book, Mind And Money Makeover: How To Transform Your Life In 3 Years Or Less And Live Your Dreams, and her author services, visit her website at www.millieleung.com or her Facebook page at www.Facebook.com/Fly.with.Millie. Fifty percent of the net proceeds from the books sold will be used for programs that support education and children in need.

Congratulations Millie! Your BCB team is proud of your accomplishments. We are confident that you will continue with even more successes!

“The reasons I wrote my book were to elevate my brand, expand my audience reach and further expand my business. As taught by Gerry Robert, I plan to develop a series of products based on my book in the future (such as eBook/Kindle, an online webinar training series, in-person workshops, a coaching program, etc.) and I look forward to securing more publicity from the book too.” —Millie Leung

The ability to Inspire, Influence, and make an Impact to your audience are some key qualities of great speakers. An audience likes to listen to real-life stories, and a great speaker ensures that the audience feels hopeful and enlightened with the message. While there are various influencing techniques, a good speaker always uses positive influence to gain the audience’s trust. Making an impact is not just about the speech content but

highly involves on how you look and how you sound. Mastering these qualities makes every speaker marketable to his or her target audience.
