Chris Ducker’s book Virtual Freedom is a best seller, he has employed over 450 full-time employees, and he has built multi seven-figure businesses. Chris is frequently featured in INC., Entrepreneur, Success, and Huffington Post.

He’s the founder of youpreneur.com (a term he coined in 2014). Youpreneur.com is an entrepreneurial mastermind community that helps experts become the go-to leader in their market.

“Whether there’s a transaction involved immediately, or whether it’s further down the line, they’re doing business with me because of the relationship they have with me first.”

By serving youpreneurs, Chris transcends the old rules of business and helps people build a sustainable business based on their experience, interests, wisdom, personality, and personal brand.

Today Chris shares his insights on personal branding and we discuss his recently released book, The Rise of the Youpreneur.

TIP OF THE WEEK

My tip of the week is simply, buy Chris Ducker’s book The Rise of the Youpreneur. Along with his book he has included hundreds of dollars of bonus material that you'll want to check out.

Michael Hyatt said, “I’ve done pretty well as a personal brand. If I’d had this book I could have done it twice as fast.” Check it out at a bookstore near you.

SPIRITUAL FOUNDATIONS

Today’s spiritual foundation is based on Proverbs [11:26] from the ancient book of wisdom. “The people will curse him who withholds grain during a famine, but blessings will be on the head of him who sells it.” So, I encourage you to think about that. God blesses the man for selling grain during a famine.
