I couldn’t write a novel, but I’ve written several business related books, and I suspect you could do it too. Over 11,000 business books are published each year, all from a slightly different angle or perspective. Hidden within your knowledge and experience is the basis of a useful and informative book. However, you can’t expect to make a fortune from sales, but that isn’t the point.
The vast majority of books published sell less than a couple of thousand copies – and many sell significantly less than that – so why go to the trouble? Well being a published author sets you apart from the crowd in your market or arena.
It puts you forward as an expert in your field and can lead to all manner of opportunities – invitations to write in trade journals, invitations to public speaking engagements, and invitations to participate in radio and TV shows. Your book also becomes your calling card, and one that won’t be hastily thrown in a drawer. It helps build your personal brand.
So give some thought to what kind of book you could write. It doesn’t have to be a 500 page epic, and printing technology is such these days that you can print in very low numbers until you’re sure how well it’s going to sell. You can even enlist the help of a ghost writer if you really don’t have the time or inclination

“A computer once beat me at chess, but it was no match for me at kickboxing.”

Hawaiian Energy
We’ve talked here before about turning waste into profits. Here’s another example.
Hawaiian energy drink company, KonaRed uses a bi-product of coffee production as a key ingredient in its energy drinks. In order to use coffee beans, you first need to strip away the skin. An estimated 40 million pounds of the stuff gets dumped every year in Hawaii alone, and it costs the companies to do it.
The fact that there is a company willing to pay for the skins is a double bonus. This is a great win-win situation. The coffee companies get to make money from something they previously had to pay to dispose of, and the energy drink company have a cheap and ready supply of key raw materials.
So is there a waste product from your business which you could sell for profit? Do you know of a waste product from someone else’s business that you could utilise in a profitable way?
