He’s Donald J. Trump, and he’s going to show readers the secret to succeed like he has in THINK BIG AND KICK ASS...IN BUSINESS AND LIFE. His co-author is Bill Zanker, CEO of the Learning Annex, which he started with $5,000 in Bar Mitzvah money.

Together, they think BIG! And now, readers around the globe will learn how they too can Kick Ass and achieve the success they’ve always dreamed of in business and in their personal life as well.

The book will feature the Trump IT test, created for this book, that will drive readers to see if they have what IT takes and in what areas they need to kick it up, plus a selection of the best Q&A’s from Trump’s incredibly popular Learning Annex Wealth Expos and true stories of success from students who are already practicing his ‘Think BIG’ strategies.

Donald J. Trump is an icon: the very definition of the American success story. The star of The Apprentice and developer of some of the planet's most prestigious real estate, he's been on the bottom and risen to become one of the world's wealthiest men.

Bill Zanker started The Learning Annex with $5,000 and grew it into a $5 million a year company. That was before he met Donald Trump. Thirty months later, after Zanker learned to think BIG himself, The Learning Annex is generating over $100 million a year in sales—and still growing.

Together, they're living examples of how thinking BIG and knowing when to back up your opinions aggressively—regardless of what your critics or opponents might say—can help you maximize your personal and professional achievements. For the first time ever, you too can learn Trump's secrets to thinking BIG and kicking ass! Learn:

• Momentum: the Big Mo. How to get it and how to get it back.
• Revenge: how and when to get it (and why it's so sweet).
• "I love you, now sign this!" Why contracts in business and personal life are so important.
• Real-life stories from people who've applied the think BIG formula in their own lives.

These strategies are proven and attested to by those who've learned to think BIG from Donald Trump and found success in their own lives. Bill Zanker used Donald's strategies to grow the revenues of The Learning Annex twenty times in under three years. Both of them have been down and out, and know what it's like to feel the whole world's against you—and both have risen to dizzying heights of success by thinking BIG and kicking ass! It is an attitude that can be easily learned.
