Description

PhDs and MAs have interesting research that the public needs to know about. That is why I have designed this course to help academics use their knowledge to write best-selling books and publish them on Amazon. I’ve used these exact steps to start a publishing company while still a PhD student that has generated over six figures of income.

I believe there is much more we can do with our research than simply producing the thesis itself. In this course, I’ll show you how to turn your MA or PhD thesis into a popular book.
