Having built the Kilimanjaro app from the ground up, I will share my experience and lessons to help you: 1. Actually get the idea out of your head 2. Design a beautiful prototype that makes sense and people can interact with. 3. Tools to host your data and how to find developers to work with ( if you are not a developer) 4. How to divide your development needs into pieces and hire developers for it and save money. 5. How to create beautiful mockups and screenshots to advertise your app. 6. How to build an app from one code base for both the Google Playstore and the Apple Appstore.
I will share the process I followed to turn my 21-Day interviewing small business project into a published book, and how you can, if you have a valuable/teachable experience, do the same. I will cover topics like: 1. How to find teachable value in your experience. 2. How to organize it into meaningful content. 3. How to tell your story in an engaging way. 3. How to create chapters for your book. 4. How to sprinkle useful lesson filled stories from your experience into your book. 5. How to gather all the content before you even start writing---that way the writing process itself is easier. 6. How to find the key themes of your story and how they make sense to your eventual readers.
