Hey, Chandler Bolt here and joining me today is Nate Hambrick.

Nate is a publishing strategist at self-publishing.com where he creates blueprints for authors to write, publish, and market their books effectively.

He's also the author of Crush Your

Cryptonite, which fun fact, yeah, there it is. If you're watching the YouTube version,

you can see it. But that book was number one in its category as a number one bestseller

for 135 days straight, which is a fun fact. And over the years, Nate has had one-on-one

conversations with aspiring authors, oftentimes as they're getting started and deciding,

And he's been the reason why, gosh, at this point, definitely hundreds of people have published their book is because they first talk with Nate. So today what we want to talk about is really a couple things. So obviously he's had a lot

of success with his book. So we're going to talk about that, how he did it behind the scenes,
