I was a green energy lobbyist for two years and I got ZERO interest and support from friends, associates, people I spoke with. I wrote a book about electric vehicles and the power grid and sold 9 copies in 10 years and the cost was less than $2. I then wrote a book about sex and got 100,000 times more interest. Sold more books at $25 just showing up at a bar one night then I sold in 10 years with my other book.
