The Billion-Dollar Creative

Can you become more creative? British author David Margolis answers emphatically, “Yes! I can’t promise that you will—but I assure you that you can.” In The Billion-Dollar Creative, Margolis shows you how to build the best environment and conditions to nurture creativity, reduce unproductive team meetings, and generate better ideas naturally—and, of course, so much more—all in a style that’s highly entertaining and thought-provoking.

"Regardless of whether you’re Sir Jonathan Ive, the Senior Vice President of Design at Apple, innovating the next generation iPad, or a high-school student designing a senior art project, you can be more creative tomorrow than you are today,” says Margolis. This book series will show you how.

An industry-leading presentation design specialist, Margolis has worked with creative teams and corporate clients in entertainment, media, advertising, publishing, and finance, in London and New York. During this time, he has gained deep insights into how to consistently achieve high levels of creativity.

In witty, accessible fashion, Margolis opens the door to a more brilliant and profitable life, presenting big ideas in ways that are easy to understand and put into practice. By the time the series is complete, more than 250 principles will have been covered, and the world just might be a more creative place.

SYNOPSIS: Creativity is not a mythical superpower accessible only to mad scientists, the world’s zaniest intellectuals, and the guy from the grocery store who plays the guitar with his feet. Neither is it exclusively reserved for artistic geniuses like Steve Jobs, Beyoncé, or Jerry Seinfeld. Everyone can tap into the creative superpowers that are hardwired into our biological operating systems. Once unleashed, creative energy thrives, productivity soars, and we get invited to the best parties in town—instead of having to sneak in disguised as a caterer. But if neglected, our mental powers wane, and we fall short of our potential.

In The Billion-Dollar Creative, David Margolis shares the wisdom he has gained throughout his career. His book raises the bar on excellence, nurturing creativity, and loading the dice to ensure you graduate from the school of enlightened warriors with flying colors. Whether you’re an entrepreneur, a team leader or the guy from the grocery store, this book has something for you.
