Book Description

March 7, 2011

In The Millionaire Messenger, Brendon Burchard pulls back the curtains on the once-secretive "expert industry" and shows how to become an influential and highly paid advice expert through websites, books, speeches, seminars, coaching, consulting, and online programs. 

Blessed to receive life’s golden ticket - a second chance - after surviving a dramatic car accident, Burchard has dedicated his life to helping others find their voice, live more fully, and follow their dreams.  By following his 10-step program, average, ordinary people can learn to package their struggles, successes, research, or life’s story into advice for others and become experts on any given topic.  In the industry of people who share their advice and knowledge with the world and get paid for it, Burchard is the “guru’s guru."

If you’ve ever wondered how the gurus spread their message, serve others, and build a real business, then this is a must-read.



Editorial Reviews

Review

"This is a must-read for any author, speaker, coach, seminar leader, consultant, or online information marketer. Brendon Burchard shows you how to get your message to the public in a bigger way (and get paid for it too)." --John Gray, New York Times Bestselling Author of "Men Are From Mars, Women Are From Venus"



“We all have a life story and a message that can inspire others to live a better life or run a better business. Brendon Burchard’s book proves it and shows how you can share your message to make a difference and also make an income. This book will help you change a lot of lives.” --Marci Shimoff, New York Times best-selling author of Happy for No Reason and Chicken Soup for the Woman’s Soul

“The expert industry has been shrouded in myth and mystery for far too long. Now Brendon Burchard, one of our most innovative and powerful leaders, reveals exactly how we—authors, speakers, coaches, consultants, seminar leaders and online information marketers--make a difference and earn an income with our advice and expertise. This is an industry defined by how much value we add to others’ lives, and this book delivers and shows exactly why Brendon is one of the best.” --Jack Canfield, New York Times best-selling author of The Success Principles and originator of the Chicken Soup for the Soul(R) series

“I love making a difference in the lives of millions of people worldwide. It gives my life a deep sense of meaning and purpose. I wish I had read Brendon Burchard’s new book, The Millionaire Messenger, twenty years ago, because it has many of the lessons that would have dramatically boosted my career, both in terms of impact and finances. Lessons I had to learn the hard way. No matter what your age, now is the time to make the biggest difference in the world. Brendon will show you how.” --Daniel G. Amen, MD, New York Times best-selling author of Change Your Brain, Change Your Life and Magnificent Mind at Any Age

“You were born to make a difference, to contribute and to share your gifts with the world. Brendon Burchard shows you how to make a living (maybe a fortune!) by making a positive difference in people’s lives.” --Darren Hardy, Publisher of SUCCESS magazine and best-selling author of The Compound Effect

“If you’ve ever dreamed of building a career and business around your advice, expertise and knowledge, then you’ll love this book.” --avid Bach, #1 New York Times best-selling author of The Automatic Millionaire



Burchard, founder of the Experts Academy, truly believes that everyone has the potential to be a self-help “guru.” Having experienced a turning point after a near-fatal car accident, Burchard emerged from his trauma with a new appreciation for life and a feeling that he had a calling, a meta-vocation of sorts aimed at people with an interest in the Self-Help marketplace. Burchard’s particular calling was to spread his feeling of purpose and the attainment of unlimited success through hard work. His book namely motivates readers to find a true sense of focus and mastery over whatever topic is important to them. Burchard offers excellent networking advice while stressing the credo “‘give and you shall receive’….If you want them to promote your website, promote theirs. Want an endorsement? Give one first.” Exercises (“expert signposts”) will nearly guarantee success for those who want it. People can and do get paid for their opinions all the time, and anyone will be able to tap into his or her gifts and knowledge under Burchard’s tutelage. Directed at a niche group of already-inspired readers, this book is more likely to fly off of convention tables than bookstore shelves; one has to hear Burchard discuss his method, or read actively (and commit to the exercises!) in order to appreciate his approach. --- Cevin Bryerman, Publisher, Publishers Weekly

Book Description

“We all have a life story and a message that can inspire others to live a better life or run a better business. Brendon Burchard's book "The Millionaire Messenger" proves it and shows how you can share your message to make a difference and also make an income. This book will help you change a lot of lives.” --Marci Shimoff, #1 New York Times Bestselling Author, "Happy for No Reason" and "Chicken Soup for the Woman’s Soul"


"The Millionaire Messenger" reveals how everyday people can share their life’s lessons and advice with others and earn a fortune in the process. Author Brendon Burchard, founder of Experts Academy, reveals a 10-step plan for making an impact and an income with what you know. The lessons you’ve learned in life and business are about to become your greatest asset, and your greatest legacy. Follow the advice in "The Millionaire Messenger" and you’ll change millions of lives. You'll learn:
1. Your life’s story and experience have greater importance and market value than you probably ever dreamed. 
2. You are here to make a difference in this world. The best way to do that is to package your knowledge, perspective, voice, and expertise (on any topic) to help others succeed.
3. You can get paid for sharing your advice and how-to information with the masses, and in the process you can build a very lucrative business and profoundly meaningful life.


If any of this sounds unbelievable--especially the part about you getting paid for sharing what might essentially be your message to the world--then it is simply because you are unaware of the "expert industry" that exists all around us. This is the industry of people who share their advice and knowledge with the world and get paid for it. These are the "gurus" you see in print, on television, and online sharing strategies on how to improve your life or grow your business. They are average, ordinary people who have packaged their struggles, successes, research, or life’s story into advice for others and thus have become “experts” on a given topic, whether it is how to be a better parent, start a business, succeed at work, live with more passion; you name the topic.


Author Brendon Burchard, himself a multi-millionaire success story, pulls back the curtains on this once secretive industry and shows you how to become an influential and highly paid advice expert through websites, books, speeches, seminars, coaching, consulting, and online programs. You get to choose your topic and how you want to share it with the world, and Burchard shows you how. If you've ever wondered how to serve others and spread your message, and build a real business doing so, then consider "The Millionaire Messenger" your roadmap to a lucrative and fulfilling new career.

Not enough depth for me April 16, 2011
By S.
Format:Paperback
I too received this book for free and I'm glad I didn't pay more than I did. There just wasn't enough depth of content or additional resources listed for me to put together actionable steps to become an expert and market myself. Even though the main focus of Tim Ferriss's book "The 4-Hour Work Week" is not the expert industry, nonetheless I think it's a much better resource for the topic. Ferriss not only introduces the idea of becoming an expert, but also lists tons of resources for taking steps to realizing your career and financial goals, which is exactly what "The Millionaire Messenger" is lacking. Brendon Burchard left me wondering whether he wrote the book with the purpose of driving people to his website so that he could sell them his bigger ticket items. I felt like he wanted only to introduce the expert career so that readers would be intrigued enough to pull out their wallets again. So in other words, if you want to pay to be advertised to, buy this book.

I wanted to refresh my review after I reviewed all the content in this book, and the content from his Experts Academy program that he 'pushes' in this book. People may think they are separate, but they are connected. This book is essentially the pre-amble, and basic introduction and skeleton framework for his Expert Academy Program. It's a framework for information marketing. That's it.. you will not make millions from it. Infact, in this book he spends considerable effort to tell you that his results are not normal and goes on about a legal disclaimer to say this. It's odd how he spends time going over and over this. Honestly, it's just off-putting, and peculiar.

This book gives an outline of how to be an expert in your field. It follows the same approach as every other book, pamphlet, website, and information program with the same purpose. Become a credible expert by the faux-establishment of yourself as the subject matter expert. Does he endorse credibility via education, degrees, certifications or what not? -Of course not. So that's what the book is.. it's the means to how to become an expert.

This book essentially is the basic bottom product in his sales funnel for Brendan's product offerings. I have to be honest, .. as a management consultant, who deals with corporate clients NON-STOP, and have been for about over 15 years, I find his writing to be both amateur and bit patronizing. The stories he includes in his book such as his family situation about not having enough money just does not translate as being real nor genuine. His constant bragging of how much he makes is also a bit rich. Without doubt, i feel it's just there to impress you and to con you into buying this product.

Following reading this book I reviewed his Experts Academy content via a colleague who bought the program. Save your money - he just expands on this book in an insincere way, and to be honest, listening to his voice angers me, because any really intelligent person knows he is truly there to make you think you'll hit it rich. Is there an audience for this product? Absolutely. Are there people who will purchase this book and think it is a message from God on how to roll in money - absolutely. There are also people who believe in Ghosts and those who will buy anything in desperation to make money.

My review is poor because I do not believe the stories in his book, and the forecasts for his fictional character 'sally' and the speculative profits she can make are extremely over-hyped, rosy, and not realistic. Sorry, I don't believe the author, I find him insincere, and a bit of a joke. That being said, I will say i am sure that i am not his audience. I was hoping I would be, but i spent most of this time rolling my eyes.

Finally, a leader with a servants heart details the step-by-step plan for anyone who wishes to share their message, story, passion or legacy on a grande luxe scale!!

A shining star has emerged in the leadership, personal development, expert advice arena. HIs name is Brendon Burchard. This is both exciting and long overdue. There are many great classic "Gurus" in this space. Marquis names such as Og Mandino, Napoleon Hill, Zig Ziglar, Buckminster Fuller and Jim Rohn are some of the early pioneers of this industry. Tony Robbins, John Gray, Dr. Oz and many others were the next generation after these masters. Now that the new millenia has entered into it's second decade, we are given a glimpse into the future of what is yet to come from this world.

Unfortunately the industry has garnered a few blemishes on it's reputation over the past few years. As is all too often in the personal development world, most advice comes from people who were not grounded in integrity and/or from people who are truly ONLY interested in making a buck. While one does indeed need capital to continue spreading the message, the players who only saw customers as walking ATM machines are thankfully going to have a bright spotlight thrust upon them and their business practices. Brendon show's us an example of how one can give great, life-changing messages and inspiration without losing track of one's moral compass

What is great about this book is that the "blueprint" of what to do and how to do it are clearly and methodically laid out for you. There is no hidden fluff or partial messages given. Often in books like this, the author tells you what you need to do and partially how to complete the tasks...if you wish to learn the rest of the message you must purchase "additional training material" from them. Not here! Brendon does a masterful job at giving the reader the whole recipe...start to finish!

If you have a passionate message or expertise that you wish to share with the world AND be appropriately compensated for...then you must read this book!
