So I’ve finally done it…

After generating well over $20,000,000 online with over 100,000 customers in almost 200 countries, creating the most visited personal development website in the world, traveling to 46 countries and checking off a few dozen items on the “bucket list”, I’ve FINALLY decided to create a personal blog. That’s right…

I’m no longer a blog virgin!

In honor of Richard Branson and the title of one of my favorite books in the world which he authored, Losing My Virginity, I’m dedicating this first post to him. Richard, thanks for your inspiration!

Here’s a quick story on how all this came to be…

Last year I decided to write a book. I went to a Mark Victor Hansen event and met one of the top agents in the business, Bill Gladstone. Bill was the agent for the Dummy series, Eckhart Tolle and countless New York Times Bestsellers. I told Bill my story as we were walking down the hall and after 5 minutes he said…

“Matt, no problem, I’ll get you a book deal.”

Sounded a bit too easy. But after spending a couple weeks putting together a proposal, low and behold, he did it. Although I think he could have negotiated a bigger advance.

So it was off to the races to get the book done and this website and blog created. I’ll spare you the gory details on the many sleepless nights finishing The Unemployed Millionaire before the deadline.

Well, the book is done and will be officially launched in a few days on September 22nd. The Unemployed Millionaire actually hit bestseller on Amazon a couple weeks ago while it was still in pre-orders! Not bad considering that was done from just one email.

I’ll be doing a bigger campaign on October 7th in partnership with Feed The Children where I’ll be donating my royalties for all books sold through my online campaign. Every book purchased after October 7th through this campaign is going to allow us to provide 5 meals to hungry children around the world. Our goal is to feed 100,000 children so please come back on October 7th and help out!

Enough shameless promotion. Here’s why I’m excited about the blog…

Through my travels, contacts and relationships, I’m exposed to some of the most advanced and cutting edge techniques for business and personal success. The only reason I’ve achieved what I have is by intensely seeking out the best training and marketing techniques in the world.

I’m going to be sharing a lot of those concepts with you through this blog and through my private newsletter. If you haven’t yet subscribed, be sure to enter your name and email address at the top left of this page to join the community!

So welcome – let’s have some fun together!
