FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE

Chemical Engineer and Entrepreneur, Artie McFerrin, recently hit two Amazon.com best-seller lists with the new book, The Success Blueprint.

Kingwood, TX – February 1, 2017 – Artie McFerrin, chemical industry specialist, has joined the legendary Best-Selling Author^® and success expert Brian Tracy and a select group of ThoughtLeaders^® from around the world to co-write the book, The Success Blueprint. This title aims to provide the reader with strategies to find success in their health, wealth, and lifestyle, and also features content from JW Dicks, Esq. and Nick Nanton, Esq., international Best-Selling Authors^® and marketing experts. The book was published by CelebrityPress^® and was released on December 22, 2016.

On the day of release, The Success Blueprint reached best-seller status in two Amazon.com categories – reaching as high as #6 in the category “Direct Marketing”. The publication also reached a ranking of #57 in the “Sales and Selling” category. Artie McFerrin contributed a chapter titled “The Magic of Performing CEO Duties,” which clarifies the responsibilities of the CEO and gives tips to focusing on those duties to increase productivity.

CelebrityPress^® describes the book:

A BLUEPRINT for SUCCESS is the architectural rendition of what success should look like. It will give you the detail and various views of the concept.

It is no secret that achieving goals is a personal and individual pursuit. Your goals are invariably different to those of your neighbor. One important secret in pursuing your goal is in your ability to identify it clearly and distinctly. Accomplishing any goal for success requires us to make changes to the identified product/service/present condition or situation, in order to produce what we are trying to achieve.

While difficult to define success succinctly, we have been given many pointers along the way. Successful and well-known people have always given us food for thought. A few examples are:

“Don’t let what you cannot do interfere with what you can do.” John R. Wooden

“A journey of a thousand miles begins with a single step.” Lao Tzu

“What the mind can conceive, it can achieve.” Napoleon Hill

“If opportunity doesn’t knock, build a door.” Milton Berle

The CelebrityExperts® in this book have dedicated themselves to their goals. Their blueprints include the good, the bad and the ugly. They are not afraid of success or failure. Their experiences will guide and mentor you as you pursue your own goals and begin designing your own SUCCESS BLUEPRINT.

After such a successful release, McFerrin will be recognized by The National Academy of Best-Selling Authors™, an organization that honors authors from many of the leading independent best-seller lists.

About Artie McFerrin:

Artie McFerrin is a successful entrepreneur, author, public speaker and chemical engineer, owning as many as nine chemical plants around the world. In 1975 he turned a dilapidated research facility into a multimillion-dollar profitable chemical plant. After over 40 years as a bootstrap entrepreneur, Artie attained a level of expert knowledge in chemical specialty products. Serving hundreds of clients every year, Artie certainly has discovered his niche in the chemical world. He has founded, bought, built, expanded and sold other businesses, amassing a fortune along his road to success.

Regarded as a thought leader in the chemical world, Artie still holds his professional engineering license, remains an active chemical engineer and is continually looking for ways to grow his businesses. Not one to rest on his laurels, in 2015 Artie authored his first book, The Executioner – Implementing Intangible, Elusive Success Principles. It is a comprehensive, modernized update of Napoleon Hill’s 1937 success classic, Think and Grow Rich.

Artie graduated in 1965 from Texas A&M University with his bachelor’s degree in Chemical Engineering, and remained for his master’s degree. He spent two years in the Corps of Cadets at Texas A&M, where he learned the importance of discipline and culture. His love for A&M is transparent, as he is the largest contributor to A&M Athletics and one of the top contributors to the university overall. Artie was inducted into the Hall of Honor for the Corps and Athletics, and received the Distinguished Alumni of Chemical Engineering honor from the university. He has served as chairman of the Chemical Engineering Advisory Board, President’s Corps of Cadets Board of Visitors, Chairman of the 12th Man Foundation Board of Trustees, Texas A&M Research Foundation and the Engineering School Advisory Council. Artie and his wife, Dorothy, established an endowment in 2005 to support Texas A&M’s Department of Chemical Engineering, which now bears his name. Many of Artie’s other contributions are visible throughout the campus in 10 other facilities. As a true industry leader, Artie wants to give students more opportunities to be entrepreneurs and follow in his footsteps. Artie was recognized as the chemical industry recipient of the Chemical Education Foundation Vanguard Award in 2009.

An advocate for helping others, Artie is a member of Vistage, a mastermind group of CEOs that provides peer advisement, leadership training and business coaching. Artie uses his positive mental attitude to better his quality of life. After beating cancer, Artie looks at each day as one more chance to leverage his wisdom and learn even more.

Artie and his wife of 50 years, Dorothy, proudly own one of the world’s largest private collections of Fabergé. Much of their collection is shown at the Houston Museum of Natural Science. His son Jeff and daughter Jennifer have blessed him with four granddaughters, Sydney, Karsen, Ally, and Lexi – all of whom he enjoys immensely.
