Make your book stand out from
the crowd! Test your book's significance, find your market
before you write, and treat your book as part of your
business.
1. Test your book's
significance
- fun, humor
- easy to read
- teach something
interesting, new?
- original, unique info?
- potential to positively
affect the reader's life?
- create a deeper
understanding of life?
- give skills and info to
help people? How to's sell well
- do you already have an
audience who wants it?
You only need 2
significances to have a book that will sell.
2. Find your market before
you write.
Who out there needs or
wants your information? Without knowing a preferred
audience as your write, your writing may be too general
and not compel your audience to keep turning pages. In my
eBook Write eBook or Other Book Fast in ch. 3 --"The
Essential Hot Selling-Points," I discuss how to gage
which audience is best for your book.
3. Know your best audience.
Remember the 100,000's
Online too. Write your audience a letter on why you are
writing the book and how it will benefit them.
4. Keep your book short.
Most audiences want to
learn something fast and easily.
5. Unleash your passion for
at least 2 years for one book.
Love your topic and don't
quit.
6. Get some help with a
book coach.
Try an introductory 1/2
hour book coaching session for only $35.
7. Intend to have your book
vision manifest.
Know your book will be
published, name your outcomes-- what you will hear, see,
and feel now that it's done and people are reading it. 8.
Treat your book as part of your business. Make a plan
-when to write, how much to write each week, when you will
finish, what your next step is--approach a book coach
professional. 9. Know you will eventually have to spend
some money to make your book a top seller. If you work a
full week, then see if you can put 10 hours a week in on
your book including its promotion. 10. Solve your
audience's challenge and you not only will sell a lot of
books, you'll also have a 24/7 sales person for your book.
When you write your book
aimed at your best audience, and spend enough time on it,
you can produce a successful E or print book.
