Pitch Like Hollywood: What You Can Learn from the High-Stakes Film Industry

by Fred Fuld III
Editor & Publisher, Wall Street News Network

Have you ever had to negotiate with your boss about a pay raise, or try to raise money for your company, or interview for a job, or sell a product or service, or even ask someone for a date? If so, it means that you had to give a pitch.

The book, Pitch Like Hollywood: What You Can Learn from the High-Stakes Film Industry, by Peter Desberg and Jeffrey Davis, is all about pitches. The authors show how to create a pitch, how to prepare for a pitch, how to present your pitch, how to deal with pitch panic, and other strategies. This guide even tells you the best time of day to make a pitch.

The book is also useful for those who have to give speeches.

Don’t let the word “Hollywood” in the title deter you from reading this book. Examples from many different industries are included, such as aerospace, education, automobile, technology, advertising, and many others.

The most important aspect of this book that I liked the most was the extensive research and studies that were done to back up what the book presented.

My favorite chapter was Chapter 5 – Persuasion Bootcamp, where the authors present and describe all of the Compliance Gaining Techniques.

It doesn’t matter if you are the head of a startup, or working your way up the corporate ladder, or trying to promote your book to a publisher, or just trying to sell your products or services to a customer or client, I highly recommend Pitch Like Hollywood to anyone who is ever involved in persuasion.

Wolf Books

by Jordan Belfort
This is the autobiographical story about the guy who made hundreds of millions of dollars by pumping and dumping low priced and penny stocks.

Crisis Averted: PR Strategies to Protect Your Reputation and the Bottom Line

by Fred Fuld III

Have you ever wondered what you would do if 60 Minutes called and said they wanted to interview you? Or maybe you opened your front door and there were a bunch of reporters standing outside.

If you own a small business or you are an executive at a major corporation, or even a celebrity or a politician, you need to read the book Crisis Averted: PR Strategies to Protect Your Reputation and the Bottom Line, by Evan Nierman.

Nierman is a crisis public relations expert, and is founder of Red Banyan, a crisis communications company.

He provides numerous anecdotes of instances where individuals and companies were stuck in negative situations, many times through no fault of their own, and the steps that they had to take to avoid most if not all negative publicity.

You, personally, may not be at fault at all, but someone at your company may have screwed up, which affects the reputation of your business. The book provides extensive advice on what to do in these situations.

My favorite chapter is Chapter 9 – Engaging with Reporters: Dos and Don’ts because reporters are really the key to whether information about you and/or your business gets printed in a positive light, a negative one, or not at all.

Anyone who runs their own small or large company, or corporate division, or sits on the board of directors of any entity including charities, should get Crisis Averted. Any other influential individuals in the limelight should also study the book.

Billion Dollar Whale: One of the Biggest Financial Swindles in History

by Fred Fuld III

If you haven’t read the book, Billion Dollar Whale: The Man Who Fooled Wall Street, Hollywood, and the World, by Tom Wright & Bradley Hope, you need to read it.

Do you know what all of the following have in common (in no particular order)?

Paris Hilton
Leonardo Dicaprio
Martin Scorsese
Malasia
Swiss Banks
Kleptocracy
Wolf of Wall Street Movie
Hollywood
Wall Street
Goldman Sachs
$500,000,000 Yacht
Miranda Kerr
$325,000 Ferrari
Supermodels
$33.5 million Manhattan condominium
President Obama
President Trump
Jamie Foxx
Busta Rhymes
Kasseem Dean
Alicia Keys
Swizz Beatz
Money Laundering
Cyprus
China
Macau
Indonesia
Bali
United States
12,000 pieces of jewelry
567 handbags
423 watches
FBI
Casinos
Million dollar parties
Las Vegas

All of the above are connected to a man named Jho Low, a Malaysian businessman who is accused of swindling billions of dollars, indirectly from the Malaysian government, and spending it on huge parties with actors, models, numerous bottles of champagne, gambling, and entertainment, in addition to expensive homes around the world.

Ironically, according to the book, Low funded the Martin Scorsese movie The Wolf of Wall Street, starring Leonardo DiCaprio, which was based on the true story of Jordan Belfort, the convicted stock market manipulator and boiler-room operator.

The story of Low reads like a financial mystery and thriller, and I rarely say this about a non-fiction book, but it is a page-turner.

So if you are looking for some end of summer reading, and if you like to read about frauds, scams, and swindles, Billion Dollar Whale will definitely keep you occupied.

Billions at Play: The Future of African Energy and Doing Deals

by Fred Fuld III

The book, Billions at Play, provides the most comprehensive case for the development of natural resources in the African continent, which has the potential to provide substantial economic growth for countries in Africa.

Africa has remained the last location for productive development in terms of jobs, health, and economies. The author, NJ Ayuk, gives numerous reasons why the expansion of the various energy industries can help Africa move forward in growth, progress, and success.

My favorite chapter is Chapter 7 – Job Creation: Making Our Own Multiplier Effect, where the author discusses how local job creation and growth can increase geometrically from the energy industry, even with investments from non-African companies. The chapter also covers the concerns about loans, which is extremely important.

The book contains very extensive research and is completely up-to-date, including a chapter on the recovery from COVID-19. I highly recommend Billions at Play for those who want to learn about the economic potential and opportunities in Africa.

MLB Star Pitcher Becomes Unlikely Source of Business, Finance & Mental Health Advice

3x World Series Champ & Wall Street Exec, Todd Stottlemyre Shares Strategies for Professional & Personal Success

The Observer: A Modern Fable on Mastering Your Thoughts & Emotions

Although Todd Stottlemyre may be best known for his successful Major League Baseball career, his accomplishments off the field are just as impressive. After leaving baseball, he pursued a career in finance building an asset management business at a high-profile Wall Street firm. He then founded a private equity fund that owns, manages, and oversees several companies.

Today, Stottlemyre is a global entrepreneur, speaker, and high-performance business coach with a highly personal, transformative story to tell through his new book, The Observer. Far from being a fiction novel, The Observer offers actionable strategies for professional and personal growth and it is also the fable of Todd Stottlemyre’s life. He rose to superstardom winning two World Series with the Toronto Blue Jays but had yet to reach his true “peak” until the journey that began afterward.

ABOUT THE BOOK:

Kat has it all (money, success, recognition, influence) except the one thing she desires desperately: a fulfilled life. A business entrepreneur in the high-end sportswear industry, Kat is driven in relentless pursuit of ever-greater success. The two anchors in Kat’s frenzied life have been her father; a famous baseball pitcher turned team manager, and her son, who is following in his grandfather’s footsteps. When both anchors become unstable, Kat’s life tips dangerously out of balance. The market and her finances flip, and relationships start slipping through her fingers. Eager for solutions, she turns to find uncanny wisdom from places she never expected.

The Observer unpacks the idea of 180-degree thinking, which changes everything for Kat. Now, seemingly impossible goals now come into focus with crystal clear clarity. As Kat focuses on the right things, the impossible becomes her new reality.

-Release Date: December 29, 2020
-Publisher: Made for Success Publishing
-ISBN-10: 1641465344
-ISBN-13: 9781641465342
-Purchasing Details: The Observer is available for wherever books are sold including Amazon

WHY THIS BOOK IS WORTH READING:

This book is a must-read for entrepreneurs and business owners but also for anyone searching to find happiness and meaning in their lives. Breaking the boundaries of genre, The Observer is a motivational business blueprint and self-help book, disguised as a ‘coming of (middle) age’ novel, wrapped in a sports story, that (underneath it all) is actually a fable about pro baseball Star Todd Stottlemyre’s life.

Although it is presented as a fictional story about a 38-year-old woman and her journey to self-discovery, the book serves as a fundamental roadmap to personal and professional success. Through the story of “Kat”, Stottlemyre examines the science of success and how to use it, offering various strategies and techniques for growth. He demonstrates how lofty ambitions are achievable when you follow the sequential steps in his proven success system. The book not only gives readers motivation and encouragement, but it also provides them with a pathway for discovering their peak potential in business and in life.

In the age of COVID, political unrest, and global chaos – a time when uncertainty lurks around every corner – these timeless insights are more important today than ever before. Praised for its sharp wit, plot twists, and fast pace, this book will inevitably become a mirror to take a look inside ourselves―and find that no matter how long it takes, we all have the ability to change our trajectory.

Whether you are seeking professional growth or personal fulfillment, and looking for strategies to achieve excellence, or if you just want to curl up with a poignant novel (OR if you a sports fan itching to learn more about this MLB superstar) The Observer needs to be on your reading list!

ABOUT TODD STOTTLEMYRE:

Todd Stottlemyre is a former Major League Baseball pitcher who played for 15 seasons most notably as a member of the Toronto Blue Jays with whom he won two World Series championships. He also played for the Oakland Athletics, St Louis Cardinals, Texas Rangers, and the Arizona Diamondbacks. Awarded for his outstanding integrity and dedication to community service, he received the prestigious Branch Ricky Award and the Lou Gehrig Award.

After leaving professional baseball, he pursued a career in finance building an asset management business at a high-profile Wall Street firm. He is the co-founder and owner of a private equity fund that owns, manages, and oversees a number of companies.

Today, Stottlemyre channels his passion for winning as a high-performance business coach, best-selling author, and keynote speaker. Taking all he has learned both on and off the field, he works to help people achieve unparalleled success in every dimension of their lives.

Relentless: The Forensics of Mobsters’ Business Practices

The b00k, Relentless: The Forensics of Mobsters’ Business Practices, by Jerold Zimmerman PhD. and Daniel Forrester, is a fascinating study of how criminal organizations run their operations and how corporate leaders can learn from them. Not how to kill people or smuggle drugs, but how to structure the corporate culture and how to give employees more latitude and empowerment, not to mention performance rewards and punishments.

The authors cover such groups as the Hells Angels, the American Mafia, the Sinaloa Cartel, and the Crips and Bloods, and why these organizations have lasted so long in spite of the fact that there is a huge amount of law enforcement trying to take them down.

You don’t have to be a corporate executive or business owner to enjoy this publication. I found the histories behind these organized crime groups to be the best parts of the book.

The book was just released today. If you are looking for interesting and practical information relating to a captivating topic, I recommend that you read Relentless.

From the Foster House to the White House – Book Review

by Fred Fuld III

What do you think eventually happens to a child who is born to a mother addicted to crack, no father around, shuffled to numerous foster homes, beaten, abused, and starved? Does he end up in jail? In a gang? Dead?

Wrong! He ends up becoming an extremely successful entrepreneur, comedian, and Internet star, with over three million Facebook followers, over one million Twitter followers, and more than half a million Instagram followers.

Terrence K. Williams is that example of success. His autobiography, From the Foster House to the White House, is the story about how he persevered through all the roadblocks that the average person couldn’t even imagine.

He turned his challenges into lessons and inspirations to succeed. He became an independent thinker, developing his own thoughts, and speaking his own mind.

This is an inspirational book that shows you that the American Dream is possible, no matter how bad your obstacles were growing up. I highly recommend that you read From the Foster House to the White House and give it as a gift to someone who needs inspiration.
