I sent this to Krishna Kumar (Fractional Integrator/COO) via LinkedIn

You remind me, a lot of my father Palith. He looked just like you. He'd brush his hair, had the same moustache, and a real gentleman in his suit.

He died in 2005, an Indian friend UK Sharma drove into a railway crossing by mistake. He got depressed sold the guy's Intercontinental Hotel to Nahil/Dhammika Perera who call it Kingsbury now.

My Sumathipala family's got a sports gambling monopoly, with over 300+ shops in SL.

The way to do it -- to grow or scale -- is we need people who are able to run or operate a cult essentially -- that is a brand that they can evangelize people into publishing with.

I was lucky, I met Sandberg's friend Jonathan Hirshon, from Apple PR, who gave me a big confidence boon. And I set up our corporation there in California, the easiest and best place to do business from.

We're looking for the right people to join our early team, to earn lots of money with. It's a killer business model.

We haven't got anyone in India, but can discuss it with you if you're interested.

AngryPages is very generous. We lend our AngryPages® brand to good authors, with a story to tell. With our packaging, they are able to sell it to customers anywhere. But don't let this kindness dazzle you. We're free to send proposals to. But we are extremely picky. In the end, what is prized is the attention or the featuring we can offer up to the author, the eyeballs. We're getting many requests for publishing. When we pick the best, 10 or 7+ out of 10 scoring books. We offer up 80% of sales to the author. We also give them 50% of the ads we win. This is for simplicity. It outdoes the YouTube model, because we can play ads together with the author, who is our client and partner. From these, we can expect to share about 10% of 20% from sales we keep, plus 25% of our 50% of ads won, with our franchise partner or franchisee.

If you're interested or know someone who knows someone we can discuss business.

It's not as competitive an industry as it is perceived. But we are as anti competitive to fiercely hellbent on monopolizing a category we wish to define on our own.

The cult language, isn't like Charles Manson or Jim Jones, it's the Apple feeling.

I think Hirshon was friendly with Guy Kawasaki, who was their chief evangelist.

That's the right type of person we need for this.

A person who believes in baptizing people in the waters of publication, the trial of reading their manuscript, and finding ways to think and achieve big things worth realizing.

A person who can walk down the street and tell everyone he or she meets that the answer and secret and cure and solution and help they need to increase their happiness, their reputation and value is to get published on angrypages.com

Sporting Star, has been a monopoly since 1950s in SL, a formerly war torn nation, saddled with debt and over 100,000 casualties.

My dad used to run Edna, which sold chocolates and metal products.

AngryPages is a great company, for the right people
