Erik Hanberg- Guest Speaker

I found Erik to be an interesting person, he was a master of many things. What I found to be most interesting was the fact that he was a self published author and that he is so successful. The fact that he has been able to make a larger profit then if he were to have had a publisher is interesting to me because before I wasn't aware of the steps that were needed to actually write and publish a book. The fact that he spent two years on a book was baffling, that takes a lot of dedication and it gives me hope that one day I will be passionate about something like that with the possibility of being so successful. Another thing I found to be informative was the perspective of using media to promote things and how effective that really is. When he was explaining to us about how he put a chapter of his book online and then promoted it through his website and social media I realized that they can be efficiently used for so much more then sharing pictures with your friends. Overall, I found Mr. Hanberg to be helpful and informative as well as entertaining. I hope to read one of his books someday!
