How often do you get a chance to dine with one of the world’s most innovative business people? Tim Ferriss, the author of the best-selling book The 4-Hour Workweek, is ready to sit down with you and three of your guests for a leisurely 4-hour dinner in San Francisco, CA. Seize this once in a lifetime opportunity and bid in BUILD’s online auction before June 30, 2015.
Tim Ferriss received BUILD Boston’s BUILDer of the Year award in 2014 and is an enthusiastic supporter of BUILD’s mission to ignite the potential of youth in under-resourced communities. Youth in these areas shouldn’t be at a disadvantage to anyone else. As Tim is known as one of the biggest authors these days, he is looking to inspire other potential authors, or business people, to follow their dreams. Tim is experienced in a lot of areas, this means that he can help a range of people with different interests. However, due to his track record of best-selling books, those aspiring to become an author could benefit from the chance to work with Tim. By meeting this author, he could offer some highly valuable advice for upcoming authors, such as using self publishing companies if other publishers don’t want to be involved with your book. That advice is useful, especially since some authors might give up on their book after being rejected by a publishing company. BUILD hopes to give more people the chance of meeting Tim to inspire a generation of people who might not have many resources available to them.
“A lot of kids, particularly those in economically disadvantaged areas, feel disempowered. When you give them something that they have crafted that they are steering, it leads to other types of ambition.”
-Tim Ferriss
