Thought Leaders to Outsource Thinking

---

If you know you have cutting edge thoughts, but don't have to time to actually articulate them, you're in luck. FastPencil, a company that helps authors publish their books themselves, has now launched a new service called the Concierge Thought Leadership Book Program. For a fee they'll assign you a "personal book authoring team to manage the entire book writing process."FastPencil CEO Steve Wilson explains:

The Thought Leadership program promises to deliver a bookstore-quality thought leadership book in 90 days. FastPencil's Concierge Book Program simplifies an often time-consuming, costly, and laborious book authoring process.Because Thought Leaders are busy, it includes their own ghostwriter, editor, and cover designer. A dedicated producer keeps the whole project on track.This program is for CEOs and other key executives, politicians, influencers, and others who desire to build their brand in well-defined communities of prospects, voters, peers, and organizations.

It's true. All too often writing a book requires time and effort. Why take time away from thought leading to actually communicate your thoughts?I guess I'm ok with this as long as we get an asterisk next to the name of the thought leader on the cover explaining that the book was "inspired by so-and-so's real thoughts."
