Join Roland Frasier and Ryan Deiss on another exciting episode of "The Business Lunch Podcast." In this installment, they follow up on their recent conversation about the book launch of Roland's "Business Wealth Without Risk" with Jay Abraham.

Surprisingly, neither "Business Wealth Without Risk" nor Ryan's book, "Get Scalable," were co-authored by both of them, and they discuss why that is. They delve into the unique approach they're taking with their book launches, which is focused on generating deal flow and carving out a distinct space in the business operating system world.

Discover how they're intentionally avoiding the typical book launch strategy and aiming to engineer word-of-mouth referability for their books.

Don't miss this episode, where Roland and Ryan provide insights into their innovative book launch tactics and strategies.

HIGHLIGHTS

"The goal of the book is not to write a book that gets bought. It's not to write a book that gets read. It's to write a book that gets referred."

"You can eat your cake and have it too because all the things that you said help all of that experience of having an actual business relationship really lets you see a lot more about somebody."

"It's not given away for free because free typically is valued at nothing or less by people. The price people pay, right? Who don't pay for it."

Welcome to a new episode of Business Lunch, Ryan Deiss and I dissect the recent hype surrounding two new AI-powered gadgets - the Humane AI pen and the Rabbit. Both products promised to revolutionize our lives with features like real-time feedback and enhanced productivity. However, reviews have been scathing, exposing the devices as clunky, unhelpful, and ultimately a letdown. We delve into the challenges of launching new hardware products in a crowded market and explore the dangers of overpromising and failing to deliver, highlighting how a great marketing campaign can backfire if the product itself isn't exceptional.

Highlights:

"The people are not stupid long term, we're all a little stupid short term from time to time."

"It's a game of replacement, not enhancement."

"The better you are at marketing, the better your product better be.”
