If you genuinely have something to say,
there is someone out there who genuinely needs to hear it.

New Seminar Sequence Starts In November!
We’re happy to announce that
applications are now being accepted
for Mentoring II, beginning November 18th.
Many people are already on the waiting list for the next go-around, so get your
applications in now!
Gay Hendricks here, with a major new service I want to tell you about: our new Mentoring Program. It’s a way for you to make a bigger difference in people’s lives, and by doing so, dramatically increase your own level of abundance and recognition.
I've grown concerned over the last few years that many coaches and helping professionals are not having the impact in the world that they want -- both personally and financially. Now, we've designed a unique solution, and I'm very excited about it.
If you want to increase your money supply, don't focus on money. Instead, increase the supply of visibility you get in the world. Putting yourself and your ideas out there -- making the effort required to bring a creative project through to completion -- creates a backdraft of financial abundance for you.
One of the unique features of the program is the personal touch: If your manuscript or video qualifies, I will hand-deliver it to my agent and personally present it to one of the Big Four publishers. More about this later -- read on...
Creating an eBook, CD or DVD is all about timing and opportunity, and I'm happy to tell you that the timing couldn't be better. Here's what's happening in the world of Digital Publishing:
 "The Market (for eBooks) should at least double in 2007," said International Digital Publishing Forum's Nick Bogarty, and he was right.
"Five years out the total eBook Market will be between $3 billion and
$5 Billion" estimates Stephen Cole, Managing Director or E-books Corp.
eBook sales are "skyrocketing" especially as technology advances -
the growth in Japan is over 330% per year with books being delivered to cell phones!
I know there are people out there—and perhaps you’re one of them—with a powerful book or audio/video product to share with the world. These days, though, you’ve got to have more than a good book or product — you’ve got to have access and connections. It’s hard to get those if you’re a newcomer, but now there’s a new pathway to those important connections.
is one of the key features of our new program. It’s now the chosen purpose of my professional life to help people bring those life-changing works out into the world. As you most likely know, together with my wife Kathlyn, I've published over 30 books - I'm a best-selling author, my personal Rolodex is huge...and people take my calls. Now, I want to help you get your work out into the world.
If your book, CD or video is good enough, I’ll get it into the hands of decision-makers in the biggest publishing companies - people that I know personally. Even if you don’t end up selling your book to one of the big publishers, though, you have our promise of guaranteed publication through this new program.

"I felt your trust in, and appreciation of us, during the creation process. I never felt any doubt from you in our capabilities to develop this program and do so with full integrity, living up to the foundational material developed by you.
During the creation process, I felt your ally-ship and you meeting us where we asked to be met. Your responses to us were clear, complete and on track.
You added a beam of light to the development of IMR."

- Having a product to market and sell increases both your visibility AND makes you a credible expert in your field. Digital publishing items can be used to both build and cultivate a community of like-minded people.
- Digital products can be used as promotional material, to augment another product, or as a stand-alone item; the best part is that once you've created them and set them up for sale, you can be generating income while you sleep.
- The standard publishing time-frame in the conventional publishing world is more than a year from start to finish. With digital publishing, you can have an idea for a product and get it out to the world in as little as a week!!!
- We've all heard horror stories about people having to go through dozens of rejections in order to find someone to publish their work. With digital publishing, you can create a product and market it directly to people you will buy it.
- eBooks cost far less to publish. The result is a higher profit margin for you, which means more money in your pocket.
- Need we say more about this important issue?

"My life is different because of Gay & Katie.
After meeting them and participating in their seminars,
I experienced reinvigorated relationships, dreaming big,
and expanding more that I ever knew was possible.
Their vision is basic and brilliant, and
I'm honored to carry it forward through
everything we do at the BCCL."

I’m shifting the focus of my professional life to mentoring. Since 1975 I’ve written 31 books, and now I’m at work on the last one I intend to publish. After I complete the manuscript this summer, I want to step into a new role in my life: mentor. I want to mentor the next wave of people who want to make a big contribution to the world through their creative work.
I want to mentor and nurture people who have the next great book, CD or video inside them. And, I have a bold, even outrageous promise I want to make to you. If your book, CD or video qualifies, I will hand-deliver it to one of the Big Four publishers. I will also introduce you to my agent, who represents Jack Canfield and many other authors you’d recognize.
(When I get into mentoring, I don’t do it half-way:)
The top three books or products that come out of the new Mentoring Program will get a personal introduction to my agent and hand-delivery by me to one of the major publishers.
your ideal book, audio, video or product.
your inner creative compass and overcoming
creative blocks.
alternate streams of income with your product.
your product using video, podcasting and other resources.

"Before I met Kathlyn and Gay Hendricks
I really believed I was not a "creative person."
I thought that was up to other people,
the artists and musicians, the beatniks and wild ones.
I remember a day when one of them tossed out the question,
"What would you do with your time if you didn't create power struggles?" I panicked. I had no idea. Since those "ahas" I consciously create almost everyday.
I create fun by following my impulses;
I create an abundance of energy, money and time;
I create fulfilling work;
I create relationships that feel connected, alive and fun."

Guaranteed Publication
The new Mentoring program comes with a guarantee of publication through our EarthFriendly Publishing company. I started this new publishing company because of my experience with all of the major publishers during the last 30-some years.
Here's the bottom line: There are plenty of good reasons NOT to publish your book through one of the big publishers. The main reason, to put it bluntly, is that they get most of the money. For example, for every copy of Conscious Loving or Five Wishes that gets sold, I end up with about $1.50. Those books sell for about $15, so you can see who’s getting the better end of the deal. If your book reaches millions of readers, it works out well. I’m definitely not complaining, because I’ve been one of the lucky ones.
However, most new books don’t even sell 5,000 copies. That can be heartbreaking, because by the time the book hits the bookstores, you’ve usually spent a couple of years of your life working on it.
EarthFriendly Publishing is a great alternative, because you not only get your book, CD or video out into the world a lot quicker, but you also get to keep most of the money. (EFP charges a fee for credit card transactions and website maintenance, but otherwise, all the profits go to you.)
This program is based on tried and true principles that have helped many people . Best of all, if you can't attend all of the live sessions, they'll be recorded and available to you on our site.
When you join our Mentoring program, you get other benefits that will make creating your eBook or Audio/Video product a real pleasure. For example, you get access to a Mastermind group to help you refine your ideas, and an ePublishing discussion board for all participants to share ideas and talk through challenges.
Here's where our program diverges from anything else available today.
If your eBook or Audio/Video product is selected as one of the TOP 3 to emerge from the program, I will put in the hands of my own agent and major book publishers, the decision-makers in the biggest publishing companies -- people I have known for decades.
Even if you don’t end up selling your book to one of the big publishers, you have our promise of guaranteed publication through this new program. You really can't lose, because EarthFriendlyPublishing will make your eBook or A/V product available in our store. You won't have to build the infrastructure and do all of the grunt-work to sell your book, handle credit cards, etc. We've got that set up already, saving you hundreds of dollars in fees, and hours of hassles.
 "I make over $250,000 a year selling e-books."

When I started writing books, it never occurred to me that I might become wealthy or famous doing it. There weren’t any talk shows when I started writing books, but even if there had been, I would have laughed out loud if somebody had told me I’d be on a few hundred of them.
I started out with a simple intention: to write from my heart about the things I felt most passionately about. I made a vow to write about the processes and practices that I knew would change the lives of people who were open to them. I also made a promise to myself that I would never write a sentence that wasn’t true and based on my own experience.
By sticking to that vow, I created a body of work which I’m very proud of. Now, I want to help the next wave of dedicated, creative people to create a body of work they’re proud of.

"I've said what I wanted to say, and now
I want to show everybody else how to do that."
- Gay Hendricks, Ph.D.
Founder, Earth Friendly Publishing.
The lifetime value would be very difficult to calculate -- the information in this course will change the direction of your life for the better in many ways. We think, because of the catapult-like results of publishing your work will have on your career, that .
Ask yourself: What it would cost me to have to our panel of for 2 months, have them available to answer my questions and guide me through the process of creating and publishing my work?
I regularly get $3,000 - $5,000 a to consult with people on projects. My good friend Arielle Ford is basically unavailable at any price - but has agreed that this project is important enough to make time in her schedule.
Given the nature of this program, the experts involved and coordinating everyone's schedule, we will be running this program on a very limited basis. Even more important, due to the intensive nature of the program, space will be strictly limited - when the allotted spaces are full, we will close enrollment. The tuition for the Mentoring Program is $1,795, but you can enjoy a $500 "Early-Bird" discount when you sign up by November 10th.
That's right, the "Early-Bird" price for this in-depth program is just $1295!
Applications accepted until 3pm PST December 1st.
