WEBVTT 00:00:00.000 --> 00:00:01.620 Hey everybody, welcome back to another episode 00:00:01.620 --> 00:00:03.540 of Vision Pros Live. I'm your host and coach, 00:00:03.700 --> 00:00:06.120 Fletcher Ellings. And today on the show, we're 00:00:06.120 --> 00:00:08.919 talking with Danielle Hutchinson. She's the Chief 00:00:08.919 --> 00:00:13.140 Creative Officer at Authors on Mission. Good 00:00:13.140 --> 00:00:15.560 morning. Welcome to the show. Good morning. Thank 00:00:15.560 --> 00:00:17.920 you so much for having me on. I'm excited. Yeah, 00:00:17.960 --> 00:00:22.109 right on. Before we dive in to exactly what it 00:00:22.109 --> 00:00:25.269 is you do and how and who you help, I'd like 00:00:25.269 --> 00:00:26.750 to start off with something that's going well. 00:00:27.030 --> 00:00:29.750 What's a win or something professionally or personally? 00:00:29.910 --> 00:00:31.769 And the reason we do this is there's a lot of 00:00:31.769 --> 00:00:33.649 uncertainty in the world. There's a lot of suffering 00:00:33.649 --> 00:00:37.689 going on. And we want to remind people that there's 00:00:37.689 --> 00:00:40.649 still good in the world and that we can be the 00:00:40.649 --> 00:00:42.789 cause of that good in our life. So, Danielle, 00:00:42.950 --> 00:00:44.409 what's something that's going well in your life? 00:00:45.269 --> 00:00:47.070 Well, something that's going well in my life 00:00:47.070 --> 00:00:49.869 is that I've been a ghostwriter and editor for 00:00:49.869 --> 00:00:51.990 a couple of years now. I've written hundreds 00:00:51.990 --> 00:00:54.469 of books for other people. And one win is that 00:00:54.469 --> 00:00:57.969 I am finally almost done writing my own book, 00:00:58.070 --> 00:00:59.890 which is, you know, just a really funny kind 00:00:59.890 --> 00:01:02.810 of like a joke. I always say is I always write 00:01:02.810 --> 00:01:05.030 for other people and I'm for myself in the summer. 00:01:05.560 --> 00:01:07.459 finally put the time in, scheduled it in, and 00:01:07.459 --> 00:01:09.640 I'm very happy to say it's in the works. So it's 00:01:09.640 --> 00:01:12.200 very exciting. All right. Well, congratulations. 00:01:12.420 --> 00:01:15.500 Can you give us a preview of what it's called 00:01:15.500 --> 00:01:18.599 or what it's about? Yeah, so it's about humanizing 00:01:18.599 --> 00:01:21.500 your manuscript, which these days AI is huge. 00:01:22.180 --> 00:01:25.760 Everybody's using Clotter to pump out manuscripts, 00:01:25.859 --> 00:01:28.659 but it's... kind of garbage because it's a robot 00:01:28.659 --> 00:01:30.739 writing it. It doesn't relate to anybody. So 00:01:30.739 --> 00:01:32.519 I'm writing about some tips and techniques that 00:01:32.519 --> 00:01:35.239 I use to help my clients bring life into their 00:01:35.239 --> 00:01:37.379 manuscripts. It was really fun to write about. 00:01:37.480 --> 00:01:39.819 I moved into some personal stories. So I'm looking 00:01:39.819 --> 00:01:41.819 forward to kind of taking it from the draft stage 00:01:41.819 --> 00:01:44.359 to pushing it out into the world soon. Very excited 00:01:44.359 --> 00:01:47.359 for it. All right. All right. When do you anticipate 00:01:47.359 --> 00:01:51.379 having it completed? um it's still in the works 00:01:51.379 --> 00:01:53.200 it's still in the works but in the meantime i 00:01:53.200 --> 00:01:55.000 am still you know here with authors on mission 00:01:55.000 --> 00:01:57.060 continuing to help other people bring their own 00:01:57.060 --> 00:02:00.420 manuscripts to life too so um it's a busy schedule 00:02:00.420 --> 00:02:02.780 so to answer your question i'm not quite sure 00:02:02.780 --> 00:02:06.620 but it's coming soon all right well well best 00:02:06.620 --> 00:02:10.319 wishes with it um all right so the the show we're 00:02:10.319 --> 00:02:13.460 on here is called vision pros and we're all about 00:02:13.460 --> 00:02:17.020 hearing about people's visions um to me that's 00:02:17.020 --> 00:02:21.409 uh um an interesting and oftentimes inspiring 00:02:21.409 --> 00:02:26.009 topic you know there's a lot of there's a lot 00:02:26.009 --> 00:02:28.710 of conversation with people in our lives during 00:02:28.710 --> 00:02:32.090 the day but it's usually or frequently about 00:02:32.090 --> 00:02:34.550 stuff that's not inspiring or not stuff that 00:02:34.550 --> 00:02:36.669 we're not passionate about right it's about just 00:02:36.669 --> 00:02:39.789 kind of navigating day to day so i love that 00:02:39.789 --> 00:02:41.629 we get to talk with people about what their vision 00:02:41.629 --> 00:02:46.560 is so i'm curious what's your vision Yeah, so 00:02:46.560 --> 00:02:48.819 before I answer what my vision is, I guess I 00:02:48.819 --> 00:02:50.439 should sort of back up a little bit to give you 00:02:50.439 --> 00:02:52.020 a little bit of background information about 00:02:52.020 --> 00:02:55.199 myself. I work as a teacher as well, in addition 00:02:55.199 --> 00:02:57.300 to being the Chief Creative Officer here at Office 00:02:57.300 --> 00:02:59.889 on Mission. and also ghostwriting editing for 00:02:59.889 --> 00:03:03.229 people so it's a very busy um schedule one that 00:03:03.229 --> 00:03:07.250 i love doing but my vision would be then to just 00:03:07.250 --> 00:03:10.550 solely focus myself on the publishing side of 00:03:10.550 --> 00:03:13.110 things and the writing side of things and i think 00:03:13.110 --> 00:03:14.889 it's so important because these days everybody 00:03:14.889 --> 00:03:17.770 really does have a story to tell no matter where 00:03:17.770 --> 00:03:20.530 you come from where your industry is and i think 00:03:20.530 --> 00:03:21.969 it's important that we give people those opportunities 00:03:21.969 --> 00:03:25.520 to get their books out there so yeah My vision, 00:03:25.539 --> 00:03:28.080 therefore, would be to be able to expand my reach 00:03:28.080 --> 00:03:30.340 to help other people to, you know, get those 00:03:30.340 --> 00:03:33.020 dreams across. And, you know, of course, technology, 00:03:33.280 --> 00:03:34.460 as I mentioned before, is going to be playing 00:03:34.460 --> 00:03:37.180 a huge role in it. But, you know, AI to embrace 00:03:37.180 --> 00:03:39.680 that dream and to help others reach that. I think 00:03:39.680 --> 00:03:42.939 that's a beautiful thing. Yeah, right on. Yeah. 00:03:43.000 --> 00:03:45.860 So so what I heard you say in that is that your 00:03:45.860 --> 00:03:48.500 vision is to help, you know, as many people as 00:03:48.500 --> 00:03:51.629 you can. to get their story out there in front 00:03:51.629 --> 00:03:54.270 of others. Because lots of us do have a book 00:03:54.270 --> 00:03:57.009 inside of us. We do have a story that we want 00:03:57.009 --> 00:04:02.330 to bring to a wider audience. And with all the 00:04:02.330 --> 00:04:05.490 technology that we have today, it's really more 00:04:05.490 --> 00:04:07.550 accessible than it's ever been. Would you agree 00:04:07.550 --> 00:04:10.189 with that? Oh, absolutely. Yeah. I mean, anybody 00:04:10.189 --> 00:04:12.750 could just, you know, throw something out there, 00:04:12.770 --> 00:04:15.830 just get it out using the AI -generated tools. 00:04:16.509 --> 00:04:18.649 But I do have to say, I think it's a matter of 00:04:18.649 --> 00:04:20.629 balancing that using it as a tool rather than 00:04:20.629 --> 00:04:23.970 just, you know, solely using the computer, which 00:04:23.970 --> 00:04:25.449 is why you kind of need assistance sometimes. 00:04:25.750 --> 00:04:27.790 And as I mentioned before, I help them humanize 00:04:27.790 --> 00:04:29.649 it and bring their stories to life that way. 00:04:29.730 --> 00:04:32.430 But it does make it more accessible. But I guess 00:04:32.430 --> 00:04:34.889 my vision would be to just expand what I'm able 00:04:34.889 --> 00:04:37.290 to do to help those stories become even better, 00:04:37.350 --> 00:04:39.269 to relate to more audiences, to get the message 00:04:39.269 --> 00:04:44.350 across even stronger, too. Yeah, right on. As 00:04:44.350 --> 00:04:46.850 people are listening to this and because you 00:04:46.850 --> 00:04:48.250 and I both have just felt like everyone's got 00:04:48.250 --> 00:04:53.329 a story to tell. And some people would probably 00:04:53.329 --> 00:04:55.629 agree like, God, I'd love to tell my story or, 00:04:55.709 --> 00:04:59.649 you know, I'd love to write that story. But I'm 00:04:59.649 --> 00:05:01.569 going to play devil's advocate. So a lot of them 00:05:01.569 --> 00:05:04.610 are thinking like, but get real, Danielle. I'm 00:05:04.610 --> 00:05:07.050 also a teacher and I don't have time or I'm also 00:05:07.050 --> 00:05:10.490 have a full family. I don't have time or I've 00:05:10.490 --> 00:05:13.129 never written one. i haven't taken any classes 00:05:13.129 --> 00:05:16.949 on on writing one so would i love to have a book 00:05:16.949 --> 00:05:20.250 you bet but it doesn't really seem very realistic 00:05:20.250 --> 00:05:22.550 or like it's in the cards for me talk to talk 00:05:22.550 --> 00:05:24.750 to that person who is thinking along those lines 00:05:24.750 --> 00:05:29.029 yeah i mean so that's what building a team and 00:05:29.029 --> 00:05:31.569 building systems really comes into play because 00:05:31.569 --> 00:05:33.790 if you think you don't have the time if you don't 00:05:33.790 --> 00:05:35.569 have the you know quote unquote writing talent 00:05:35.569 --> 00:05:37.810 which i would say you always do have something 00:05:37.810 --> 00:05:41.560 in there um that's what building a team is you 00:05:41.560 --> 00:05:44.500 hire somebody to help you get the proper outline 00:05:44.500 --> 00:05:46.560 in place one that targets the right audience 00:05:46.560 --> 00:05:49.389 and builds And it structures your book in a way 00:05:49.389 --> 00:05:51.629 that you can pull content from it later on to 00:05:51.629 --> 00:05:54.370 market it down the road. That sort of thing. 00:05:54.470 --> 00:05:57.670 You also can hire a ghostwriter. We call ourselves 00:05:57.670 --> 00:06:00.870 the angel writers. So we help you work with you 00:06:00.870 --> 00:06:03.470 chapter by chapter to get that vision out there. 00:06:03.850 --> 00:06:06.689 And we take the burden off your shoulders. You 00:06:06.689 --> 00:06:08.250 know, even if you're busy and just, you know, 00:06:08.269 --> 00:06:10.350 all you have to do is build a friendship with 00:06:10.350 --> 00:06:13.069 a ghostwriter, then get to know you. based on 00:06:13.069 --> 00:06:14.730 that they can really take your authentic voice 00:06:14.730 --> 00:06:17.209 and put it onto the paper so regardless of what 00:06:17.209 --> 00:06:19.509 your situation is if you're thinking this isn't 00:06:19.509 --> 00:06:22.110 for me you know why not there's so many benefits 00:06:22.110 --> 00:06:24.750 just getting that book out there whether it be 00:06:24.750 --> 00:06:27.069 just for legacy something to hand your children 00:06:27.069 --> 00:06:29.569 down the road or you know most commonly these 00:06:29.569 --> 00:06:31.829 days are you know using it as a business card 00:06:31.829 --> 00:06:35.350 a way to attract clients to your brand um so 00:06:35.350 --> 00:06:39.170 many different reasons so Yeah, absolutely. So, 00:06:39.250 --> 00:06:41.149 yeah, like you said, there's lots of reasons 00:06:41.149 --> 00:06:44.449 to write one. Like my uncle and aunt wrote one 00:06:44.449 --> 00:06:49.110 kind of was just a memoir of their lives. They 00:06:49.110 --> 00:06:53.069 each wrote one. And and that type of book was 00:06:53.069 --> 00:06:56.129 really cool because it allowed me to get to know 00:06:56.129 --> 00:06:59.189 them on a very different level than just, you 00:06:59.189 --> 00:07:01.949 know, I grew up having them around all the time. 00:07:01.970 --> 00:07:05.939 And but I had my version of them was from. from 00:07:05.939 --> 00:07:08.500 that of a little boy right from you know and 00:07:08.500 --> 00:07:11.959 a teenager but when i got to read their story 00:07:11.959 --> 00:07:15.860 um from from what while i was an adult and i 00:07:15.860 --> 00:07:19.800 i had a completely different appreciation for 00:07:19.800 --> 00:07:23.160 them uh right so because they were sharing vulnerability 00:07:23.160 --> 00:07:25.220 they were it was a conversation that we probably 00:07:25.220 --> 00:07:30.519 never had growing up um so there's that and then 00:07:30.519 --> 00:07:33.550 there's the books that business people want to 00:07:33.550 --> 00:07:37.170 write, who then want to use that, like you said, 00:07:37.269 --> 00:07:40.129 as their business card. Because if you're at 00:07:40.129 --> 00:07:44.970 a seminar and you're networking and someone gives 00:07:44.970 --> 00:07:47.449 you their business card and another person gives 00:07:47.449 --> 00:07:51.149 you their book, right which one is going to carry 00:07:51.149 --> 00:07:54.269 more weight right exactly exactly and you know 00:07:54.269 --> 00:07:56.610 when you open that book then too within the pages 00:07:56.610 --> 00:07:59.329 it not only shows your values but also how you 00:07:59.329 --> 00:08:01.649 built the business the challenges you faced and 00:08:01.649 --> 00:08:04.870 it gets the client an opportunity to know you 00:08:04.870 --> 00:08:07.790 better you know it's a way for them to really 00:08:07.790 --> 00:08:09.769 bond with what you have going on here and get 00:08:09.769 --> 00:08:12.589 on board with your your vision for your own company 00:08:12.589 --> 00:08:15.189 um so there's just some of the reasons why you 00:08:15.189 --> 00:08:17.980 might want to write book um you know others might 00:08:17.980 --> 00:08:20.600 be if you maybe you don't have a company but 00:08:20.600 --> 00:08:22.860 you're you want to expand your influence you 00:08:22.860 --> 00:08:24.800 know you have some ideas to share your your thought 00:08:24.800 --> 00:08:27.540 leader a good way to do that is by writing a 00:08:27.540 --> 00:08:29.139 book and then therefore using that as a launching 00:08:29.139 --> 00:08:32.039 pack for future speaking engagements or just 00:08:32.039 --> 00:08:34.360 you know on your platforms whatever it might 00:08:34.360 --> 00:08:36.320 be that's just another example the list goes 00:08:36.320 --> 00:08:39.980 on so yeah yeah and and it because and one of 00:08:39.980 --> 00:08:42.000 the the beautiful things that it does is it really 00:08:42.000 --> 00:08:46.779 sets you apart and helps you build that authority 00:08:46.779 --> 00:08:49.980 and credibility. Would you agree with that? Yeah, 00:08:50.019 --> 00:08:51.980 absolutely. Absolutely. You know, just having 00:08:51.980 --> 00:08:55.980 your name on that page, it's a, it's like a shining 00:08:55.980 --> 00:08:58.960 plaque of armor, right? It's a way to show that 00:08:58.960 --> 00:09:01.399 you know what you're doing and that you're an 00:09:01.399 --> 00:09:04.399 expert in the field. So it's, it just gives you. 00:09:05.519 --> 00:09:10.659 Yeah. So for somebody who's never done this before 00:09:10.659 --> 00:09:14.200 and they're listening to you and they're like, 00:09:14.220 --> 00:09:17.720 well, Definitely seems like, you know, more accessible 00:09:17.720 --> 00:09:21.100 doing it this way. But how long would something 00:09:21.100 --> 00:09:26.080 like this take? So it does depend. If you're 00:09:26.080 --> 00:09:28.259 really on board with it and you're directly involved, 00:09:28.799 --> 00:09:31.740 it can be done within a couple of months. You 00:09:31.740 --> 00:09:33.419 know, I've had it done honestly within a week 00:09:33.419 --> 00:09:35.960 myself. I remember there was this one time I 00:09:35.960 --> 00:09:38.480 had a client call me. I was at ShopRite. It was 00:09:38.480 --> 00:09:42.600 Sunday. And he says, I want to book her in by 00:09:42.600 --> 00:09:44.610 next Sunday. And I'm like. That's seven days. 00:09:45.149 --> 00:09:47.029 But, you know, with the right time and the right 00:09:47.029 --> 00:09:50.570 effort for it, you can make it happen. Most of 00:09:50.570 --> 00:09:52.169 the time, though, just in a couple months, because 00:09:52.169 --> 00:09:54.490 I do work with my clients, we have a weekly video 00:09:54.490 --> 00:09:57.269 call. We chat, bond, get to know each other. 00:09:57.509 --> 00:10:00.149 I write the chapter that week, and we discuss 00:10:00.149 --> 00:10:02.210 it the next week on the next video call. And 00:10:02.210 --> 00:10:04.389 it's a really collaborative process. But, you 00:10:04.389 --> 00:10:05.789 know, during that, we might take a little longer. 00:10:05.889 --> 00:10:07.570 And, of course, the review stage is when the 00:10:07.570 --> 00:10:09.889 client's looking over the materials. We're waiting 00:10:09.889 --> 00:10:13.070 for the turnaround time. So it's dependent on 00:10:13.070 --> 00:10:16.230 the involvement you're looking for. But if you're 00:10:16.230 --> 00:10:17.830 looking for something speedy, it's definitely 00:10:17.830 --> 00:10:22.549 doable too. Yeah, exactly. It depends on what 00:10:22.549 --> 00:10:24.710 your needs are. So if you're looking for like 00:10:24.710 --> 00:10:28.570 a quick, almost like an e -book type, but it's 00:10:28.570 --> 00:10:31.529 still a physical book, yeah, that's going to 00:10:31.529 --> 00:10:34.990 be less. I mean, right, a 70 -page book is going 00:10:34.990 --> 00:10:38.450 to be a lot easier than, you know, a 250 -page 00:10:38.450 --> 00:10:42.149 book or whatever it is. um so yeah so the time 00:10:42.149 --> 00:10:44.269 frame is and it's going to be largely dependent 00:10:44.269 --> 00:10:47.950 on the client too is like how how forth uh how 00:10:47.950 --> 00:10:51.090 timely are they bringing forth the the content 00:10:51.090 --> 00:10:53.330 to you their ideas the you know getting back 00:10:53.330 --> 00:10:56.330 to you that so but but what i hear you saying 00:10:56.330 --> 00:10:59.070 is yeah you could have your book written in in 00:10:59.070 --> 00:11:03.730 a few months and and published right of course 00:11:03.730 --> 00:11:05.590 and as long as you have a strong outline from 00:11:05.590 --> 00:11:07.440 the get -go that also There's a lot of times 00:11:07.440 --> 00:11:09.600 you know what you want in each chapter and you 00:11:09.600 --> 00:11:11.840 really think it through and think about how each 00:11:11.840 --> 00:11:13.700 piece connects to the next piece of what you're 00:11:13.700 --> 00:11:16.740 writing. Oh, you know, one of the most important 00:11:16.740 --> 00:11:19.340 parts is having a strong outline because when 00:11:19.340 --> 00:11:21.299 you have a strong foundation, you know exactly 00:11:21.299 --> 00:11:23.460 what's going in each chapter in the correct order. 00:11:23.659 --> 00:11:26.539 Well, that just makes everything flow so much 00:11:26.539 --> 00:11:29.740 quicker moving forward. And it also removes any 00:11:29.740 --> 00:11:33.840 need for large revisions, which is another chunk 00:11:33.840 --> 00:11:36.580 of time. So there's more. effort you put forth 00:11:36.580 --> 00:11:38.720 to creating that outline the smoother it'll be 00:11:38.720 --> 00:11:42.879 moving forward yeah right on and and i also love 00:11:42.879 --> 00:11:46.779 that you highlighted you the person's going to 00:11:46.779 --> 00:11:49.399 be working with a team they're not doing this 00:11:49.399 --> 00:11:52.940 by themselves you're hiring a team of experts 00:11:52.940 --> 00:11:57.480 to help you and and your company has helped so 00:11:57.480 --> 00:11:59.990 many people do this this is not the first time 00:11:59.990 --> 00:12:03.870 um so you've got a process in place to help uh 00:12:03.870 --> 00:12:07.250 to that's really efficient um and and they're 00:12:07.250 --> 00:12:09.389 not just hiring one person they're hiring a team 00:12:09.389 --> 00:12:12.830 of people um that are going to help you bring 00:12:12.830 --> 00:12:17.330 your vision into the physical realm um if if 00:12:17.330 --> 00:12:19.870 this is resonating with some people and they're 00:12:19.870 --> 00:12:22.159 like god you know what Maybe I need to give her 00:12:22.159 --> 00:12:24.019 a call.

You may have written, but you need another 00:13:47.440 --> 00:13:50.559 set of eyes. Or like you said, you may have it 00:13:50.559 --> 00:13:52.879 done already, but you're just like, how do I 00:13:52.879 --> 00:13:55.759 market this thing now? Because that's the next 00:13:55.759 --> 00:14:00.679 phase is like getting a book written and publishes 00:14:00.679 --> 00:14:03.419 a huge accomplishment. That's one game that you're 00:14:03.419 --> 00:14:06.779 going to play the writing, publishing. And then 00:14:06.779 --> 00:14:09.279 there's this other game that once you have, you're 00:14:09.279 --> 00:14:12.700 like, oh. How do I now market this thing?

And the 00:14:17.179 --> 00:14:18.820 marketing is a huge thing. So many people think 00:14:18.820 --> 00:14:20.539 once you book out there on the shelves, that's 00:14:20.539 --> 00:14:22.299 it. You know, you're done. But it's not. You 00:14:22.299 --> 00:14:24.519 can continuously pre -license it. The best way 00:14:24.519 --> 00:14:27.179 is to get that marketing assistance. It's the 00:14:27.179 --> 00:14:29.279 only way to spread your message beyond just having 00:14:29.279 --> 00:14:31.559 it sit on that shelf at the bookstore. That's 00:14:31.559 --> 00:14:34.419 right. Yeah. And I also want to let people know, 00:14:34.460 --> 00:14:38.879 too, like once you've done this. You can order 00:14:38.879 --> 00:14:43.600 copies of your own book at a significant discount 00:14:43.600 --> 00:14:46.620 and then you can mail these out. You can take 00:14:46.620 --> 00:14:49.879 them to trade shows. You can take them to the 00:14:49.879 --> 00:14:52.460 seminar or the workshop that you're delivering. 00:14:52.639 --> 00:14:57.700 They really become a powerful asset in your marketing 00:14:57.700 --> 00:15:01.000 of your own self and your own business. And I 00:15:01.000 --> 00:15:05.100 love that about self -publishing. Absolutely. 00:15:05.279 --> 00:15:07.000 Yeah. You never know the opportunities you might 00:15:07.000 --> 00:15:08.799 rise in, even if it's not an event, but just 00:15:08.799 --> 00:15:10.720 having copied your own book with you and your 00:15:10.720 --> 00:15:13.100 briefcase, your purse, and you never know if 00:15:13.100 --> 00:15:14.840 you're going to meet, pass on to somebody on 00:15:14.840 --> 00:15:17.460 the subway, right?
