Kevin Steven Quinn’s new book,The Entrepreneur’s Playbook exploded out of nowhere, into what has become one of the most talked about new business books of 2020. The project, a group collaboration with more than 70 co-authors, was published as a one-stop destination for anyone interested in building or scaling a business online.

Is the book worth picking up? Who are these contributors? And what can you expect to discover in the pages of what Quinn refers to as the digital marketing “bible?”  We’ll look into all this and more.

From Inside Joke to Best-Seller?

While this is a real marketing book offering a ton of value, the business best-seller actually started out as an inside joke...

Rewind to 2019, Quinn would go live on his facebook page every friday with what he jokingly referred to as “Air Fryer Secrets.” He would put together an actual meal using his air fryer, while discussing marketing and sales strategies. It was a weekly thing to catch Quinn’s facebook live.

Soon people tuned in for both his chicken wings, and his marketing knowledge. It didn’t take long for Air Fryer Secrets to grow a small following. People began joking that he should publish a marketing and sales book and call it “Air Fryer Secrets.”

Someone even created a mock-up book cover with Quinn standing proudly next to an air-fryer…

The joke only grew, and soon people really wanted to see the Air Fryer Secrets book come to life. Some well-known marketers chimed in that they’d be willing to contribute content for the book… Six and seven figure earners, ClickFunnels Two-Comma Club award winners, super-affiliates, and others began signing on to this book...

The project snowballed into a 70+ chapter book. As the project began to take shape, the publishing company changed the title to “The Entrepreneur’s Playbook” in order to appeal to a wider audience and of course sell copies as the Air Fryer Secrets title wouldn’t translate to anyone outside of their circle.

Kevin Steven Quinn
