Attention writers:

• Does your brain frequently serve up ideas, any time, anywhere?
• Have you already captured thousands of ideas and inspirations?
• Are they scattered in notebooks, documents or an Evernote database full of thousands of ideas?
• Do you need a way to organize and evaluate your ideas, to identify those you should write about?

This is a surprisingly common challenge, especially for a free thinker like you who makes a living from your creative brain.

As a writer, your brain is always “on.” You also recognize the value of capturing your ideas, before they get away. Because your creative brain is so highly developed, you see possibilities everywhere and are constantly consuming information that becomes fodder for your writing.

You don’t need help brainstorming more ideas – you’re buried in them. Hundreds or maybe even thousands of them, if you’re prolific like me! Some with a lot of potential value. Some with only a little. How do you tell them apart?

You just wish you had a process for zeroing in on the best ones, so you can move them into your writing process.

A solution for idea overload

Over the years I only regarded Evernote as an ideal idea CAPTURE tool. I used it to collect thousands of ideas and inspirations.

But it was only when I started to dig deeper that I realized how its design and features enable it to support the entire PROCESS of creativity, from investigation and ideation to evaluation and implementation.

It’s truly an end-to-end personal brainstorming system!

That’s why I wrote Eureka! How to Use Evernote to Generate, Incubate, Evaluate & Activate Your Best Ideas – to share with you the capabilities I’ve uncovered, both within Evernote itself and the applications with which it can connect. You can use this process to significantly increase your creative output – and make more happen with your best ideas!

Eureka! – designed for a writer like you

No one has done a deep dive on how Evernote supports the needs of writers – until now.

I have written about all aspects of business creativity and innovation for over 25 years. This deep background has given me the insight that Evernote can support personal and group brainstorming at a deep level. If you set it up properly, it can support an end-to-end creative process that looks something like this:

“As someone who creates a ton of content, I need something to keep me organized – and Evernote is my tool of choice. I thought I was using it effectively. Then I got a copy of Chuck Frey’s new book, Eureka! – and my mind was blown. I learned many new things about Evernote I can do right now to speed up the content creation process. This resource is one you must get now – or watch your peers get it and crush your business.“ – Phil Gerbyshak, LinkedIn Social Selling Trainer and author of 5 books and over 2,500 articles

I’ve written a comprehensive guide that shows you, step by step, how to use this process to efficiently generate, manage and implement your best ideas.

So you can transform the nuggets of gold within your “idea pile” into valuable content!

I’ve also created a set of attractive, ready-to-use templates that will enable you to get started using this process immediately to increase the quality and quantity of your creative results. You won’t find this information anywhere else.

VALUE OF THE BOOK & UPDATES: $100 or more

“There are a lot of books on creative problem-solving, that don’t give you specific tools to implement their techniques. There are many books that explain how to use software, but don’t give you any frameworks for how to use it to solve real problems. Chuck Frey’s book Eureka! helps bridge that gap, uniting the abstract theories and practical tools together in a succinct package.” – Tiago Forte, author of Building a Second Brain: Unlock Your Creative Potential Using Evernote

My qualifications

Writing is my vocation: I’ve written for a living for over 30 years, first in business-to-business PR and digital marketing, and now as a respected content strategist and marketer.

Writing is also my avocation: I have written about brainstorming and creative problem-solving techniques for over 20 years, and founded and managed the world’s largest website devoted to innovation from 2002 to 2012 (InnovationTools.com). I continue to write about creativity tools and techniques on my personal blog and on the Mind Mapping Software Blog, the #1 website covering mind mapping and all forms of visual thinking.

In short, I need efficient tools and processes to help me move my ideas to content. That’s why I  have spent 20+ years seeking the best idea generation, capture and management tools – and now I’m convinced I’ve found it in Evernote and the creative process I outline in this book.

“Lots of people know what a useful tool Evernote can be. But only Chuck Frey has uncovered its full potential as a creative ideation tool. Who knew you could do so much with an app designed to capture and categorize information? One definition of ‘innovation’ is taking something good, and making it incrementally better. Chuck has done that with this book. As someone who spends a great deal of time studying and sharing insights on innovation and creative problem solving, this is a provocative and very valuable read.” – Keith Harmeyer, Founding Partner, SmartStorming.com

Eureka! vs. the incredible value of your ideas

“How dare you settle for less when the world has made it so easy for you to be remarkable?”

– Seth Godin

All it takes is one winning idea and this book will pay for itself many times over.

Even an incremental improvement in one area of your work is potentially worth hundreds or thousands of dollars to your employer. Achieve this modest goal and you’ll already have paid for the book and templates several times over.

Armed with all of the knowledge, tools and resources I’m going to share with you, your take-away value over the next year could easily range into five or six figures. That’s right – your best idea could be worth $10,000 to $100,000 in the next 12 months. At that point, your investment in these tools and resources is absolutely miniscule.
