Summary

Today on the show we’re talking with Tucker Max, founder and former CEO of Scribe Media. We discuss the importance of believing in the skills that you have, and knowing how to use them effectively. We talk about how Tucker was fired from his family business when his dad valued loyalty over good work. Writing a book is not an easy thing to do, especially when you’re someone who is busy and don’t have a lot of time to work on it. That’s where Scribe Media comes into play, they help identify what the book will be about, and how to get it written with the least friction. Scribe has 3 questions you need to answer to create a great book: ‘What do you want?’, ‘Who are you trying to serve?’, and ‘What do you have to say that matters to those people?’. Authenticity is hard to come by, and when employees, investors, or co-workers see that you are being honest and forward with them, that incurs a lot of respect. Tune in to hear how Tucker Max turned authenticity into success!
