Join the Conversation with Tiffany & Tyler

In this episode of Next Up Nation, Tyler Wagner discusses how he journeyed his way to success from being an author to a serial entrepreneur, speaker, and podcast host with Authors Unite – a platform that gave countless aspiring writers a boost in their market presence.  It has been a one-stop-shop and catalyst for numerous authors to write, publish and market their books. This platform spawned several major bestsellers on Wall Street Journal and USA Today.

The Start of Something Big: The Birth of Authors Unite

After the success of his first best-seller titled Crushing Conferences, Tyler began to understand the challenges of being a writer during the entire process. That sparked the idea for Authors Unite, a platform where he can help other writers become authors. Authors Unite offers publishing and marketing services that help to maximize the impact and visibility of the publication. By spreading the word within its network, it has helped people create passive income. Besides editing and ghostwriting services, they also provide book coaching sessions that help writers establish credibility in terms of their creative processes and editorial guidance.

Improv Can Improve Your Sales Game

Throughout Tyler’s career, he has found improv comedy and sales to be quite the combination when it comes to building relationships and effective selling. As opposed to the traditional scripted way of selling, Wagner believes improv can be the secret edge to your sales-related careers.
