Kickstarter Campaign for a Book on FairShares Commons Companies

Thanks for sharing Rory - looks like a good kickstarter for us each to contribute to, if interested. I think I will pre-order the book.

Since they've reached there goal - I would less likely to start proposing a corporate contribution, unless there was some very specific proposal with some sort of tangible ROI (financial or otherwise) to the association.

Hi Rory, Sam

Thank you so much for publicising!

All, if we can get to our stretch target we can get the book out by middle of the year.

Sam and all - One correction - the stretch goal enables us to finish faster, by
- putting in concentrated effort
- hire a professional editor to get the book fully readable.

The publishing company we are starting will have a distinct crowdinvestment campaign that we will start next year. The intent of the publishing + social media agency company is to get cutting edge practices around making the world work, regenerative / circular economy, healthy society and business etc. published and widely disseminated so that we put it into practice faster than the climate crisis, 17SDG etc. are moving.

AND - if any of you know any authors that would be interested in publishing via a FairShares Commons company, send them our way. I've copied Jess, Antoine and JC who are pulling that together

Thank you
Graham

And please join our discussion group on LInkedIn, on how to put the book into practice, leading to the creation of an Economy of the Free

Thanks Rory for helping to spread the word. I backed the campaign individually myself - I agree with Sam that's a great way to go. # of backers is a great thing for people to see as we head in to the last 7 day stretch. This campaign is just for the book and next year as we launch the FairShares Commons publishing company we will be doing a separate crowd fund. And yes please join the linkedin group - would be awesome to have you all there.

Here is the link for the crowd funding page - if you've already backed it - consider increasing your pledge to help meet the stretch goal. http://bit.ly/li3332 - the world is so hungry for this message your support in helping get it out there faster is much appreciated.

Reading is one of my favorite things to do, and I do it whenever I can. In general, the more I read, the more difficult it is to find the right balance between reading and learning. Many students can get help with their assignments by going to websites like https://www.trustmypaper.com/, like this one. People who are good at writing are hired by the company, and they want to be paid a fair amount.

@CatrinBrooks Great to see your enthusiasm! The book is now live and out there - you can find details here: https://graham-boyd.biz/rebuild-the-economy-leadership-and-you/ including a pdf that you can download; and each month we run a discussion around themes on the book, e.g. next Tuesday info here: https://www.eventbrite.co.uk/e/webinar-15-rebuild-the-economy-leadership-and-you-tickets-318678023547 And once a month a deeper dive into the theory behind it, more info and registration here: https://www.evolutesix.com/foundation-workshop
