About The National Academy of Best-Selling Authors™:
The National Academy of Best Selling Authors™ was founded by two attorneys, JW Dicks, Esq. and Nick Nation, Esq. who are also best selling authors and represent authors and experts nationwide.  Both of the attorneys are members of multiple organizations, associations and academies that recognize and honor the best in the business, and they thought a similar organization should be created for Best Selling authors who don’t always get recognition for their accomplishment. Authors themselves, they recognized that only a very limited number of books made the major New York Times Best Seller list and just like the awards shows put on by the entertainment-based organizations, they wanted to have more categories for authors to be accepted and recognized for their accomplishment. The National Academy of Best Selling Authors™ now honors authors from many of the leading independent best-seller lists.

How we run our business, even how we manage our personal lives impacts this as well. He wanted to show people all the different aspects of life that cause both success and failure, everything from our health, lifestyle, marketing and advertising, technology, budgeting, investing, and more.

This idea became the premise for “Life, Business and Money”, the radio show that discusses every area of life and how they affect our success and productivity. Of course, Steven is not the expert in all of these areas, so he has put together a panel of advisors and guests who are the most knowledgeable about their specific industry.

JW Dicks is one of America’s leading experts in using personal branding to build an individual or expert’s media credentials and then grow a business around the personal brand.  JW emphasizes to his readers on branding, and the importance of online marketing and social media to expand it.  JW Dicks writes, “Don’t stop at offering just one level of services or one product of your own brand; expand it as far as you can like successful companies such as Disney does. There is a new frontier for growing yourself as a personal brand using all of the elements of online marketing and social media. The opportunities for profit are huge just as Disney has shown us.”

Nick Nanton, Esq. co-founder of the Celebrity Branding Agency™, was recently quoted in an article on TheStreet.com about celebrity marketing and branding of alcohol products. 

Orlando, Fla. – July 22, 2009 – Nick Nanton, Esq., The Celebrity Lawyer and co-founder of the Celebrity Branding Agency™, a franchisor of independently owned and operated Media, Marketing & PR agencies across the country, was recently interviewed about his opinion on the effectiveness of celebrities marketing and branding adult beverages.  

The article, written by Jason Notte, called “So Over It: Celebrity Booze,” was a feature article on TheStreet.com and discusses the growing trend of celebrities using their brand to market adult beverages.  Notte sites examples of Justin Timberlake having his own tequila, Kid Rock having his own beer, and Diddy getting a 50% share of Diageo’s Ciroc Vodka.  These branding strategies have helped boost an otherwise shrinking market. 

The article quotes celebrity branding expert and branding consultant, Nick Nanton, Esq. saying, “You don’t want people thinking about the name Ciroc, you want them thinking about Diddy.” “He ideally wants them to go buy a bottle of Diddy,” Nick continued.

Nick Nanton, Esq., The Celebrity Lawyer and co-founder of The Celebrity Branding Agency™ specializes in Celebrity Branding® entrepreneurs, authors, speakers and professionals as celebrity experts in their field of business and helps them expand nationwide. 

In the Article, Jason Notte writes, “Perhaps no one has had more success cashing in on celebrity alcohol than Drinks Americas. The company partnered with Donald Trump on vodka and with Willie Nelson on Old Whiskey River Bourbon. Their celebrity cache lessened brand-building promotion costs and increased the chance of someone trying a shot.”

“If there wasn’t demand for such products, Drinks Americas certainly created it. Trump’s line sold 100,000 cases in its first year, while Willie has been good for 7,000 cases a year since launching in 2001,” continued Notte.
