Best Selling Author, Multi-Millionare Philanthropist and Investor Michael Murphy Joins Next Century Publishing
Las Vegas, NV (PRWEB) October 17, 2014 -- “We first met Mike Murphy in the early spring of 2014 when he began to inquire about publishing his now released best-selling book Love Unfiltered (http://amzn.to/1wKJy5k) with our company. From our first interaction, I was impressed with Mike’s experience in scaling significant businesses, his focus on building the Love From Margot Foundation and his philanthropic nature. I have had the pleasure to meet very few people of Mike’s character. As we worked through the details on the release of his book, I was pleased to see many confirmations of his character and success. I also saw Mike’s excitement for the publishing industry, writing books and giving to people”, says Ken Dunn, CEO & Founder of Readers Legacy Inc & Next Century Publishing. “Our company is growing extremely fast and experiencing many of the challenges that occur in this high-growth state. I knew we would need to attract additional resources for the company, and further experience to the board, to ensure we stay on track. I also realized that I would personally be well served by another partner who could pour additional knowledge and guidance into me as I lead the companies; In Mike, we have been blessed with all of it. We are also excited to announce our affiliation with the Love From Margot Foundation (http://www.LoveFromMargot.com). Going forward we will be donating 25 cents from every book we sell to help the foundation in its mission to better the lives of women battling breast cancer and give them a fighting chance. With Mike joining Orrin Woodward (http://www.OrrinWoodward.com), Chris Brady (http://www.ChrisBrady.com), Rod Larrivee, and myself, the Board of Directors now has the depth and experience equal to any fortune 500 company. With Mike on the team, NCP and Readers Legacy Inc are sure to succeed in their mission to Change the Way People Write, Read & Experience books.”
“I have been blessed with many experiences and successes in my life. My greatest blessing was the gift of Love I found in my wife Margot. When she was diagnosed with Breast Cancer, it changed me forever. For 9 years, through her battle, Margot taught me how to love, to give and to serve others. When she passed I was overwhelmed by the desire to help as many women as I can who are battling this horrific disease. That’s why I founded Love From Margot. 100% of the proceeds from my book Love Unfiltered and my 2015 release Living In Color will be donated to the Foundation. My life’s work is to help people to discover how they can manifest anything they desire”, explains Mike Murphy. “I am excited to be joining the team at Readers Legacy Inc and Next Century Publishing; I have been thoroughly impressed with Ken and his team. My book reaching best-seller status was confirmation that they know what they are doing. I come into this with my eyes wide open; NCP is a new company and is working through typical challenges. I see myself as a business coach to Ken, a sounding board for the team and a great liaison for our many client authors and book lovers. With the upcoming launch of the world premiere online virtualization of the home library and author marketing support system contained in http://www.ReadersLegacy.com, NCP needs all the help they can get and I am proud to be joining the team.”
