Books and Courses To Grow Your International Online Empire

January 6, 2026

Books, Notebooks, Journals, & Learning

Over the years, I have been writing on this blog as well as here on the ground in Asia doing business. I have prepared these books and training programs with you in mind, to help avoid a lot of the issues me and many of my friends and colleagues went through. I hope these help you as you develop your international business career and knowledge. I will always still continue to provide plenty of free content via blogging and podcasts, but this content is premium content that takes all my experience and knowledge and packages it into concise guides and books. Check out Mike’s Amazon author page as well. Curious how I write books, I documented my experience writing my first book on the blog.
