It surpassed the market value of the entire book publishing industry.NFTs have a built-in royalty mechanism for the creator, enabling them to capture royalties on secondary sales.NFTs allow the delivery of almost any type of content.[05:32] Explaining NFTs to SkepticsPeople were also skeptical of the internet at first. But the internet revolutionized every industry, and every aspect of society now has a digital presence.Web 3.0 or NFTs has a lot of implications, and it's just starting to play out.Usually, only one out of ten projects do well. The exact ratio applies to any creative space, such as movies, books, and music. With something new like NFTs, it's unrealistic to think that everything about it will do great. In 1996, Jeff Bezos wanted to start his business in an industry that was in the midst of explosive growth. At the time, the internet was gaining a household adoption of 2300% yearly. [09:16] “Even now in a [cryptocurrency] bear market as we're recording this, this is the time when people build and develop new projects, and then when the market turns, then you've got a new set of success stories. So, I like to say build on the bear and ride it in the bull.” - Click Here to Tweet This[11:44] How Jesse Got Into Book PublishingJesse wrote his book Lifestyle Entrepreneur and published it in Asia in 2012. Due to the book’s success, a US-based publisher released an updated version in the US and the rest of the world.Jesse had author friends who asked him for help to publish their books. He took the opportunity and later founded the Lifestyle Entrepreneurs Press.Since 2014, Lifestyle Entrepreneurs Press has been working with authors in the health, self-help, and spirituality genres. They work with a full-service publishing offering.Jesse got onto over 50 podcasts using his book. It is a great talking point and anchor that gave way to further talk about his business and brand.Jesse enjoys working with non-fiction authors with more than five years of experience in their practice. He gets the chance to understand their life and success and helps them bring out their stories through their book.[22:07] Jesse’s Life Before Becoming An Author[27:12] “I used to think just writing and playing music was creative, but now I do believe that starting any kind of an entrepreneurial venture is a creative act.” - Click Here to Tweet ThisJesse fell in love with music and played while traveling as a teenager. He later got into music production and built his music label. His band released an album under a famous recording company. After producing music, Jesse pivoted to becoming a consultant for the music industry and business development for tech companies. From consulting, he had a stint as an investment banker.Later, Jesse co-founded a renewable energy credits business. Then, he founded a promotional drop ship company. He sold it 18 months after it grew to over half a million in revenue.At the time, he realized he wanted to write down his experiences while they were still fresh in his mind. That became the catalyst for him to start writing. He got his book Lifestyle Entrepreneur published, which was about his philosophy and approach to getting clear on your passion. It was also about finding a way to give it a business model. [34:01] “And maybe you do have something to lose, but you always have experience to gain, knowledge and wisdom from having done it and I’ve pulled lessons forward from everything I've been involved in to what I'm doing now in some shape or form.” - Click Here to Tweet This[35:17] Going All-in With Creative VenturesMoney is a lagging indicator and shouldn’t be the goal in and of itself. Love of money can become the root of suffering if you chase money for money’s sake.Jesse has always prioritized experiences, travel, and relationships, even if there's very little money on the table.When you write a book, there’s a shift in your identity, and you become a semi-public figure. A behind-the-scenes operator is one type of entrepreneur, and a semi-public face is another.Strike a balance and don’t just quit your current job and go all-in as an author. Do the work until you get opportunities that can replace or exceed your income.[42:45] How Artists Can Utilize NFTsNFTs are another form of publishing. It’s publishing an asset to the blockchain instead of the bookstore, and it lives in its own digital realm.Royalties built into NFTs are groundbreaking because the money split occurs when a transaction occurs. There is no need to wait for an accounting period.There are different kinds of NFTs. It makes it possible to buy an album or any creative work while collaborating with the creator. Take all your value forms and turn them into business offerings. You can package them into a specific price point and transact using the blockchain.[48:26] Benefits of NFTsNFT collections have an increasing floor price, the lowest you can sell any NFT. If you get the floor price above the initial sale price, that's where people start making tons of money.Create fewer products than the demand. You can earn from the secondary royalties as more people buy your products from those who had them during launch.NFTs have become a secure way to transmit content ideas without needing the approval of a media company or retailer. These institutions usually have their own agenda or rules on their platform. [49:03] “There's no middleman. There's no intermediary. There is no third party, or there doesn't have to be with NFTs in the blockchain.” - Click Here to Tweet ThisEnjoy the Podcast?Seek Go Create is for anyone seeking excellence, moving towards success, or creating something new.

In this episode of the Making Bank podcast, Jesse Krieger takes us through his journey of how he went from playing music on the streets of Europe to writing his book and starting a publishing company that publishes around 30 books a year.  Jesse Krieger has been passionate about music since the age of 13. When he was only 19, he skipped his ticket home to stay in Vienna, playing music on the streets and backpacking through Europe for a living. After that, he returned to the US, where he started his first business with his bandmate, which was a record label for their band.  He would go on to start several businesses, from an SEO business to dropshipping products. His experiences starting and running these businesses spawned the idea of documenting his process for creating business and making it successful. Eventually, that idea would lead to the inception of his first book. Going through being an author and writing his book, Jesse took his knowledge and decided to make it lucrative. He would start his own publishing company, Lifestyle Entrepreneurs Press, and has currently published over 150 books. In this episode you’ll learn more about Jesse and his process of writing a book of your own. Listen to Josh and Jesse talk about Jesse's Journey and what makes a great book: (3:50) Jesse's Backstory Jesse grew up loving music, at 13, Jesse would ditch school to practice Jimmy Hendrix songs. Jesse played in bands and even attended music school in LA for a year. However, he wouldn't stay in LA, instead, he went on a backpacking trip to Europe for a couple of months but then extended his stay to a year, and that's where he started making money playing music on the streets of Vienna, Austria. (7:35) Jesse On Starting His First Business Jesse explains how he realized his options were to go home and move back in with his parents or continue his adventure with music. This eventually gave birth to Jesse's first business. He moved back to the US and started a record label with his bandmate and now business partner. They thought, why get a manager to sign them with a record label when they could create a label of their own and produce their music. They raised capital and eventually started their label and toured America twice. (13:51) Why Publishing? Jesse traveled to Asia and started studying languages. In Asia, he would start an SEO business as well as a dropshipping business selling flash drives in bulk out of South China. He sold the company 18 months later, and this sparked the idea to document how he went from zero to a six-figure business — that would then become his first book known as Lifestyle Entrepreneur.  (17:16) Creating Opportunities With Your Book Jesse talks about creating business opportunities with your book. He explains how if you have a brand or business and you've written a great book, don't just sell the book as the book itself but sell it with a bonus that compliments what you're offering with the book.  (22:33) Shortcut To Writing Your Own Book Writing a book from scratch takes effort, but Jesse explains his shortcut to writing. Take five questions that encapsulate what your book is about and get someone to ask you those questions and let you answer them. Use those questions to create the chapters of your book — record your answers and later get it transcribed or edited and clean it up after.  (26:32) Can You Make Money With Your Book? Jesse talks about the types of relationships and deals you can make with your publisher — if your publisher is giving you an advance on the promise that you will sell x number of books or if your publisher is partnering with you to set up your business for future success as well. (28:52) Biggest Mistake When Writing Books According to Jesse, an author's biggest mistake is announcing your book too late. He talks about what you should be doing while making your book and when it's the best time to reveal your book's existence. Links mentioned:  https://www.jessekrieger.com
