Melvin Powers Interview Parts Two And Three – Lessons From A Book-Publishing Giant Part
Melvin Powers is a legend. He owns a thriving mail-order business, negotiates his own deals, makes a great living, and has a lot of fun. And with over 60 years of experience, he’s just the person to ask marketing and publishing questions to. That’s probably why I got so many responses when I asked listeners if they had any questions for this book publishing giant.
So in Part Two and Three of the Melvin Powers interview, you’ll hear Melvin field those questions. And because he truly likes to help people succeed, he gives step-by-step, thoroughly honest answers. But best of all, he illustrates his answers with examples from his own life to show just how practical success can be, if you put your mind to it.
