About “Car Men” – The Movie

He’s gone on TV dressed up as a giant pickle. Nowadays, you’ll see him most often sporting a giant red, white and blue Uncle Sam hat. Tracy Myers may play outrageous to sell cars – but this best-selling author, nationally-recognized entrepreneur, and devoted family man is dead serious when it comes to building a business he, his family and his city can be proud of.

“Car Men” details the touching and occasionally hilarious story of how the Myers men created a car business that’s known all across America for its successful out-of-the-box thinking – not to mention its off-kilter TV commercials, featuring such quirky characters as Uncle Frank and Chainsaw Charlie.

As one auto pro says, “In the car business, Tracy Myers is who everybody wants to be.” Watch “Car Men” and you’ll find out why.

Best-selling Author, Tracy E. Myers, CMD To Be Honored With Golden Quill Award in Hollywood

Best-selling author and owner of Frank Myers Auto, Tracy Myers, will be recognized at the Second Annual Best Seller’s Summit and Awards Gala hosted by National Academy of Best-Selling Authors™.  The event will be taking place October 20-21, 2011 at the Roosevelt Hotel in Hollywood, California. Tracy E. Myers will be honored for becoming a best seller with the best-selling books Uncle Frank Sez and Pushing To The Front: Front Line Strategies From The World’s Leading Entrepreneurs.  Uncle Frank Sez gushes with his wit and wisdom and has an inimitable ‘down home’ flavor. His sayings (‘Frankisms’) are not the kind you would expect to hear at typical tea parties or genteel ‘coffee-klatsches’. They are, however, sage pieces of advice from a man who has lived life, understands human frailties (including his own), and who wants to give the rest of us the benefit of his hard-earned knowledge. It is his caring and ‘frank’ way of passing along to us these “nuggets” of his experience – to make us better and more successful people – that keeps our rapt attention. On the day of it’s release, Uncle Frank Sez reached #1 on Amazon.com.

Pushing To The Front features top advice from leading entrepreneurs and marketing experts from across the globe.  It offers proven business strategies to help people adapt and thrive in the new economy.  Pushing To The Front was released on Wednesday, October 5, 2011 by business book publisher CelebrityPress™.

About The Book

TO PUSH OR NOT TO PUSH – is that the question? What is the importance of pushing ourselves? …Why do we push? Pushing implies effort, Effort implies desire, Desire implies emotion, and emotion implies passion. If this is accurate for most of us, Pushing To The Front assumes a passionate mindset. The Celebrity Authors in this book have one thing in common – passion for their goals. They have ‘blood, sweat and tears’ invested to make a success of their pursuits. Now, we all have passion, which is one part of the menu for success – but: Do we have a plan to utilize and direct that passion? The Celebrity Experts in their field in this book have developed multiple methods to succeed in their fields. They started out looking to improve their health, wealth and success in their lives. See how they achieved their success. They will show you their secrets. With odds not much different to yours, and at times much more difficult, read how these Celebrity Experts have done it, then copy these methods of “Pushing To The Front” to achieve YOUR goals. One finds limits by pushing them. ~ Herbert Simon

After such a successful release Tracy E. Myers 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.
