Nick Hutchison walked into his senior year of college with a 0% homework average and zero interest in reading. Ten years later, he's read over 1,000 personal development books and built BookThinkers into a seven-figure book marketing agency serving hundreds of authors a year.
In this conversation, Josh and Nick break down:
• The reading system Nick uses to actually implement books instead of just consuming them
• Why 4% of the books you read create 95% of the change in your life
• The SMART goal framework you should set BEFORE opening page one
• How Nick built BookThinkers as a side hustle while working a full-time B2B sales job
• The failed Argentina app build that almost ended it before it started
• The anonymous team survey that exposed his biggest leadership blind spot
• The five-year "deposit strategy" that got Jim Kwik to invite him on stage
• Why 84% of American adults read nothing — and how to reverse it
If you've ever finished a book and thought, "That was great — now what?" this episode is your operator's manual.
