All of the fine print up front.

 

Author Marketing Mastery through Optimization for Nonfiction Authors (AMMO Nonfiction) provides professional sales, marketing, and product development training and consulting for nonfiction authors who are also information business owners in the business, money, health & wellness (NOT medical), or interpersonal relationship spaces.

 

We are not affiliated with the advertising platform that might have brought you here, such as Facebook, Instagram, Tiktok, Google, etc., and we are not endorsed by any of these platforms.

 

We do not offer, promote, endorse, or in any way associate with any "business opportunity," "make money online," MLM, or "get-rich-quick" schemes.

 

We serve dedicated professionals who are committed to serving their customers with uncommon integrity, excellence, insight, and innovation.

 

Our business exists to make a substantial difference and to make a substantial profit. We sincerely hope yours does, too.

 

We produce and publicize the information and materials on these pages to demonstrate our effectiveness and professionalism to you, so that if you also happen to be a person who is dedicated to producing uncommon results for your clients through uncommon effort and commitment, you might find us to be kindred spirits. Our transparent desire is that after understanding what we're all about, you will be eager and proud to work with us to help you serve your customers, grow your business, secure your future, and leave a lasting legacy of excellence, integrity, kindness, and general awesomeness.

 

We make no promises that you can accomplish what we have accomplished, or that you can or will achieve what our clients have achieved. When you hear about our successes and/or our clients' successes, you should understand that they have come at the cost of an unusual level of effort, study, diligence, training, and commitment.

 

You should also understand that more than 99% of people have never and will never produce these kinds of results. We hope that makes you feel even more excited to work alongside those of us who have.

 

When and if we make any guarantees of any kind, they are always limited guarantees that are strictly and entirely dependent upon a) your meeting stringent and substantial entry qualification requirements, and b) your upholding stringent and substantial ongoing performance requirements. If your employees are involved in executing your vision and mission with us, you are personally responsible for their conduct.

 

We collect certain information in order to fulfill our obligations and deliver on our promises. We take all required measures, plus additional ones, to protect your privacy. We will never sell, barter, trade, or willingly disclose your information to any third party unless we have first obtained your documented permission.

 

We rely upon reputable third-party providers to serve our content to you, process your payments, safeguard your email address and other information, and perform various other necessary functions. We take all reasonable steps to vet these providers thoroughly. We are not responsible for any breaches, failures, inadvertent disclosures, or negligence on their part.

 

We reserve the unqualified right to terminate any agreement with you at any time if our continued association with you becomes a risk to our reputation, values, mission, or integrity. Our business depends on our reputation for forthrightness, transparency, honesty, integrity, and excellence. We hope you're excited to move forward with these values at the forefront, and that you share our view that conducting business in this way is the best path to sleeping well at night, providing excellent service to your customers, and making the most profit in the long run.

 

Speaking of the long run, when we tell you about certain clients of ours who have achieved jaw-dropping results in surprisingly short periods of time, we in no way imply that you can or will achieve the same outcomes in similarly short timeframes. These are incredibly talented and dedicated individuals and teams, and while you should certainly look to them as exemplars, you should not expect to replicate their results precisely.

 

You should, in contrast, expect to encounter substantial difficulties, challenges, and hardships along the way to your success. This is a necessary part of entrepreneurship, and in fact represents the greatest opportunity of entrepreneurship: to develop your character in ways that mere mortals will never have the opportunity to replicate.

 

You may not solicit our clients or partners for consulting, help, services, or references. We do not provide their contact information for a reason. Imagine if you were to receive dozens of emails, texts, or phone calls every week from random strangers asking you for advice, counsel, or information about someone else's business. It would suck, and you shouldn't cause those kinds of problems for the people whose names, logos, or likenesses we may share with you for the purpose of helping you advance toward your goals.

 

If you've read this far and you have a slight smile on your face, there's a good chance that you're our kind of entrepreneur.

 

You can always reach us at support at stevepieper dot com.

 

You may reach the founder at seven zero two three three six six two two four. If you come across as spammy or creepy, you will be immediately and permanently blocked. Dad jokes are always welcome, however.

 

Here's to our mutual success, to our clients' empowerment and enrichment, and to leaving this place much better than we found it.
