This first book in the highly anticipated INFLUENCE IN ACTION™ series has surpassed; The Father of Economics, Adam Smith; The Father of Systems and Quality Control, W. Edwards Deming; and the Father of Public Relations, Edward Bernays while on its way to #1 Best Seller rankings.
The Foreword for INFLUENCE IN ACTION™ GAINS PROVEN RESULTS AND DRIVES SALES was written by “The $2 Billion Host,” Forbes Riley. Forbes is an author, award winning television personality, entrepreneur, creator of the SpinGym fitness sensation and one of the most sought after female keynote speakers. As a motivator and role model, Forbes has a unique connection with her audience that stems from her own personal story.
Before becoming a media success, host of more than 100 infomercials and 20 years marketing products on home shopping channels worldwide, Forbes struggled with her own weight and her father’s unrealized dream of becoming an inventor. Crowned by the press as the $2 Billion Dollar Host, she was determined to reach her goals — and through dedication, never ending passion and hard work, she has.
Forbes Riley has created a trusted brand name for herself and is recognized internationally as an award-winning TV host, spokesperson, celebrity fitness and lifestyle expert, professional coach, keynote speaker, actress and author. By sharing a unique and inspiring philosophy that stresses the integration of fitness, nutrition, and behavioral changes, Forbes empowers people everywhere to define and reach their personal goals, both physical and psychological and she is the true embodiment of dreaming it, believing it and achieving it.
INFLUENCE IN ACTION™ GAINS PROVEN RESULTS AND DRIVES SALES provides readers with everything they need to REACH #1 in their industry.
This revolutionary book not only tells business owners and professionals how to accomplish more with their work and business; it provides them with the means to accomplish everything they ever wanted to accomplish.
All that they have to do is to leverage their INFLUENCE by putting their INFLUENCE IN ACTION™.
In this innovative series, Smith details how he set records at Fortune 500 Companies, such as Mobil Oil, Coca-Cola USA, John Hancock and New York Life. He not only shows readers how to reach #1 rankings in their industry; Smith provides them with all of the tools they need to get the job done.
After reaching #1 worldwide production rankings at Mutual of New York (MONY), The Equitable Life Assurance Society, and AXA Financial, Smith was severely injured in a not-at-fault auto accident and was forced to close his thriving financial practice. While recovering, Smith began consulting other advisors in professionals in how to dramatically improve their businesses.
After dozens of neurosurgeons agreed that Smith was likely to spend the second half of his life in a wheelchair, he decided to do what he always counseled his children to do. “Always expect the best after you’ve prepared for the worst.”
In preparing for the worst, Smith completed two online degree programs simultaneously, just in case his inability to walk without support ever became permanent. While completing his Master of Fine Arts (MFA) degree as Valedictorian at Full Sail University, he completed his Feature Film Writing degree “With Distinction,” at the top of his class at UCLA.
The east and west coast story structure learned during this time led to the evolution of THE ADVENTURES OF INSURANCEMAN™ marketing and sales comic, which was an offspring of the story that Smith created to place a multi-million dollar estate planning case and earn a single day commission of $110,000.00. This new sales comic is available for licensing to all qualified financial advisors to that they may optimally provide for and support their clients. Smith has similar work available for nearly every industry with more on the horizon.

After raising millions of dollars for charity in his financial practice, Smith moved his charitable work directly to both public and private schools. He created his SHORT ATTENTION SPAN DAN™ comic book series to teach elementary school children his proprietary method, WRITING MADE EASY FOR YOUNG AUTHORS (AND TEACHERS) to not only teach them writing skills and build confidence for life, it teaches them to speak in public with ease as well. Smith’s grown children, Ashley, Austin, and Sabrina, are also published authors, as well.
Smith also mentors middle school, high school, undergraduate, graduate, and medical students in Entrepreneurship. Just last spring, two of his mentees won the top financial prizes in their regional and statewide competitions within a 24-hour period. His methods are noted in INFLUENCE IN ACTION™ BRINGS MORE BUSINESS TO ENTREPRENEURS which features a Foreword written by the love of his life, Sharon L. Roznowski, M.Ed., with chapters by Anish Verma and Leelan Rodriguez.
