To the entrepreneur, the employee, the unemployed, and the dreamer.

You want to discover work you love. Whether you’re an employee or an entrepreneur, finding or creating work you love can be a challenge. You know it’s possible. I’m sure you’ve seen others around you discover work that is meaningful, purposeful, and profitable. You may have heard the hundreds of success stories shared on the 48 Days Podcast, but you wonder—

“Is it possible for me?”
“Why am I struggling so much?”
“Maybe work is just supposed to be hard and unsatisfying!”

Maybe you grew up like l did, in a household where we heard work is a curse from God. That enjoying our work is never going to happen.

Don’t give up. The 48 Days Eagles put together this series to help you. You’ll hear from others who know what it is like to be stuck in a job you don’t love. You’ll also hear from many who have found fulfillment and joy in traditional jobs. And you’ll have access to people who have followed their dream of having their own business. You can learn from them and perhaps just start something on the side.

Starting a message-based online platform can be an exciting endeavor. It’s like owning your own media channel where you get to talk, teach, educate, and inspire. A healthy online platform can also become a reliable source of income.

Many people have the desire to start their own platform, but aren’t sure where to begin. If you’re one of those people, I’m confident this book will help.

In the coming pages, I’m going to walk you through what I call “The 5-D’s of Online Platform Development.” I’ll show you how to discover your message and derive an income by sharing it.

The rest of this book includes insightful examples and personal testimonies from multiple people who are part of the Platform Launchers online community. You’re going to love reading what they have to share.

Get ready to build, grow, and monetize your own online platform. Let’s begin!
