In this episode of The 7% Club Podcast, I dive into one of the most powerful strategic moves a business owner can make: Writing a Book.

I share why a book is far more than a passion project or a nice-to-have. It’s a credibility booster, a clarifier of your intellectual property (IP), and a door opener to new opportunities. From sharing my personal journey of writing two books (and a third in the works) to practical advice on mapping your IP and building a book structure, this episode is packed with insights for any consultant, coach, advisor or agency owner who’s been thinking “one day” they’ll write a book.

If you’re ready to scale your impact, stand out in a crowded market, and finally make sense of all the knowledge sitting in your head - this episode is your starting point.

What You’ll Learn:

• Why writing a book is a strategic business asset, not just a personal goal
• How publishing boosts your authority, visibility and trust
• The unexpected power of clarifying your IP through the book-writing process
• The role of stories and case studies in making your book resonate
• A clear starting point: how to extract and structure your IP into a book
• How to move from “I’ll do it someday” to taking action

📌 Key Takeaways:

• Authority: A book instantly elevates your credibility and sets you apart in your industry.
• IP Clarity: The process helps you distill years of experience into structured, repeatable frameworks.
• Client Attraction: A book pre-sells your expertise and helps prospects self-select before they even contact you.
• Framework First: Don’t start with the writing - start by mapping your IP and refining your core methodologies.
• Keep It Clear: Aim for clarity, not complexity - structure your content around 3–5 big ideas or stages.

Thinking about writing a book? Start with what you already have. Document your frameworks, processes, and client stories. Whether you finish the book or not, the act of getting your IP out of your head and into a structure will transform how you communicate, pitch, and scale.
