Own the Narrative. Own the Platform. Own The Intellectual Property. Control Google & AI Search.

Stop building your intellectual property on someone else's platform - whether it's social media, large publications, or on e-learning platforms.

Create a digital publication where you own the original version (original ideas, insights, and innovations) that can then be altered, licensed, reformatted, republished, or even sold - on your terms. You don't need to ask multi-billion dollar corporations permission to monetize your intellectual assets and gifts.

Today, we've ghostwriting content and building magazines with subject-matter experts across different industries, but my journey didn't start this way.

I entered the world of Bankruptcy, Business, and Tax Law after my first invention - A patent-pending automated tortilla maker capable of producing 5,000 tortillas an hour - was seized and liquidated by the big banks in 2005.

The Million Dollar Lesson: Never mix patent-pending or highly valuable assets or IP with your existing business - it can be seized from you.

As a Bankruptcy, Business, Estate, Tax, and IP Lawyer - I've seen thousands of cases with "asset seizures, liquidations, and dissolutions". I've seen incredible businesses and portfolios get torn apart due to poor planning, poor legal or tax structuring, and also due to a lack of diversification (putting all the eggs in one basket).

The Million Dollar Lesson: Develop multiple income streams, multiple product lines, line up multiple buyers, and diversify your income and investments.

As a Serial Tech firm and Law Firm Owner - I've faced copycats, impostors, and IP infringers who copied and pirated my ideas and destroyed entire markets. I've also faced social media bans, accounts being shut down, and even account hacks on social platforms - all of which puts your IP (content, lists, community, followers) at risk.

The Million Dollar Lesson: Maintain full control your intellectual property and how it's shared, who it's shared with, and how they can use it - even with business partners, investors, and employees. Remember that everyone has their own self-interest in mind.

As a Freelance Writer and Contributor - I've faced many restrictions on how my "published articles" could be shared or reused. I understand that the appeal of "writing for large publications, platforms, and magazines" - it's an incredible authority-building and even business generation avenue, but I believe there is a better way to go about it.

In one instance, an article I published in a large publication (well known) was used to develop a new tech innovation that probably generated millions in sponsorship and advertising dollars for the publication.

The upfront "get paid to publish" hype ended up being costing me millions because I was restricted from publishing the original idea in the same "thesis" style format that I had published in. I made $1,000 or so for the post, but the actual post, content, and the ideas published ended up costing me an entire tech company.

WHAT I SHOULD HAVE DONE - The Million Dollar Lesson:

I should have published that article and innovative technology in MY OWN MAGAZINE and then reformatted the concept for the large publication, without giving away the keys to the kingdom. I would have still made the same upfront payment, but would not face the restrictions that I did. That was an important and costly lesson.

Is this starting to make more sense?

These are some of the hidden risks and traps that entrepreneurs, inventors, artists, musicians, and freelance writers are not aware of until its too late. We offer a thought-leadership, intellectual property building, and revenue diversification avenue that enables you to create new IP, control the narrative, and avoid losing control of your intellectual property in the process.
