Print This Article

Blog Readers—

Thank you from the bottom of my heart for your support of the launch effort today of Zero to One Million!

We reached #1 in Business & Investing, #1 in Marketing, #1 in Entrepreneurship, #1 Mover & Shaker, #2 in Non-Fiction, and #3 overall on Amazon today, only bested by Oprah-backed Eckhart Tolle and the perennial favorite John Grisham. We beat out Eat Pray Love, Good to Great, The Tipping Point, Blue Ocean Strategy, Ready, Fire, Aim, The Four Hour Workweek, Secrets of the Millionaire Mind, Getting Things Done, The E-Myth Revisited, and well, every other book in the world other than Tolle’s A New Earth and Grisham’s The Appeal.

The momentum we built today will spread a message of entrepreneurial possibility to tens of thousands of aspiring entrepreneurs across the United States and the world for many months to come. You’ve also helped with the beginnings of a lifetime effort to reduce poverty and hunger by increasing access to health care, education, technology, and entrepreneurial opportunity through The Humanity Campaign.

It’s been an amazing day in so many ways. It is truly amazing what can be accomplished through word of mouth in the name of changing the world and spreading a message of entrepreneurial opportunity.

I wanted to publicly thank Carlos Garcia, Buck Rizvi, Shawn Casey, Tom Bell, Cindy Turrieta, Nana Gilbert-Baffoe, Keith Baxter, Derek Gehl, Dearl Miller, Matt Gill, Michael Simmons, Mark Shay, Rich Sloan, John Jantsch, Adam Gilbert, and Ilia Nossov for recommending Zero to One Million to their lists today.

To have the #3 bestselling book in the nation on Amazon on launch day is an over-the-top successful book launch by any measure. Thank you very very much for making this possible!
