About this ebook
The average self-published author makes less than $100 per year. The average U.S. nonfiction book is now selling less than 250 copies per year and less than 2,000 copies over its lifetime.
Very few titles are big sellers. Only 62 of 1,000 business books released in 2009 sold more than 5,000 copies, according to an analysis by the Codex Group (New York Times, March 31, 2010).
A book has far less than a 1% chance of being stocked in an average bookstore. There are thousands of titles competing for that limited shelf space.
What if your book becomes a bestseller?
Most people think, that once that happens, your book will take off. Then you’ll be in-demand for interviews, and everyone will just magically just come buy your stuff, and you’ll be famous… right?
Wrong.
“If you build it, they will come.” Only worked for Kevin Costner in the Field Of Dreams. (And “Shoeless Joe Jackson” is probably not your target audience.)
The TRUTH is:
You need to have a system in place (i.e. products and services, or a business) to monetize your book.
What happens if you don’t?
Well… not much. And that’s the problem.
Inside this book, you will learn 4 specific strategies, THAT YOU CAN USE, to make 6-7 figures with your book. Yeah, and you can do them WITHOUT selling a single copy of your book.
Inside this book, you’ll learn the BIG SECRETS from interviews with authors who are using these strategies RIGHT NOW… to grow a massive INCOME, and make a difference.
Your book could, and should become one of your most powerful marketing tools.
Get it now, and learn how you can start making money with your book today.
*BONUS: You’ll actually discover many more than 4 strategies for you to make money with your book. But “Shhhhhh… don’t tell anybody."
MORE in this book:

If you have doubts or question that you have, ‘what it takes’ to write a book and find the idea of writing one daunting, this book will replace your doubts and questions with practical advice and motivation.

YOUR BOOK IS
ONLY THE BEGINNING
Within the first 12 months after publishing my first book,

it was like throwing a bucket of gasoline on a campfire.
Writing a book to grow your business is the most powerful and impactful thing you can do to forward your business, cause, mission or legacy.

To my wife Robyn.
You believed in me when I found it hard to believe in myself.
ONE
Why You Should Read This Book
Success, however you define it, is achievable if you collect the right field-tested beliefs and habits.
—Tim Ferris
As an author, or author to be, you are part of an elite group on this planet.
I assume that, since you’ve opened this book, you’re a published author already, or you’re planning on becoming one soon.
Of the nearly 7 billion people in the world, less than 1 percent ever chooses to publish a book. According to a New York Times article, by Joseph Epstein, about how 81% of Americans say they want to write a book.
But, out of every 1,000 people who set out to write a book, only 30 actually finish. And if you then add on top of that the fact that only 20% of people who write a book actually publish it, this means only 6 people get published.
I’m also going to assume that you have a business, or you want to have a business, and that you are at least curious, about how you can generate income with your book.
Perhaps you wanted to tell your story or share a message. Perhaps you need to establish your brand or make your business more well known in your marketplace. Better yet, you are planning to grow your business and multiply your income along with it.
The challenge is: most people don’t have the faintest clue how to leverage their book into a real benefit for their business, mission, cause or legacy.
That’s what this book is about.
Picture this:
Imagine a world where people approach you, preprogramed with the DESIRE to buy your products and services. Imagine a world where it’s easier to attract customers/clients, make sales, and raise your fees.
This reality exists for many people who have books.
The strategies you’ll learn in this book have worked with people from nearly every type of business and every walk of life: business owners, entrepreneurs, professional speakers, doctors, attorneys, financial advisors, coaches, consultants, real estate and mortgage professionals, insurance sales people—the list goes on.
Book AUTHORSHIP to grow your business and earn more money is the most proven, and most powerful path you can take. Period.
Whether it is for; personal promotion, lead generation, gaining media attention and publicity, getting paid speaking gigs, or to promote your cause.
Whether you want to make it to the bestseller lists, or just sell a lot more of your products or services more easily with profound competitive advantage—this book is for you.
Positioning yourself as a published author fosters authority, credibility, and trust like nothing else. Introducing yourself with a book (not a brochure or business card) creates DESIRE for your products and services, rather than resistance.
As an author, you can:
GROW Your Business Revenue
EARN More Money
ADVANCE Your CAUSE
LIVE a legacy and LEAVE a legacy.
And here’s the even BETTER news …
You don’t need to sell a single copy of your book to grow your business and cause.
You don’t need to wait many months or years to see RESULTS.
Having a book is like becoming an instant celebrity in your field.
However, if you don’t learn how to leverage your book to grow your business, you’re going to be mightily disappointed.
For most people a book is not what makes you money, it’s the business behind your book that brings you the greatest rewards.
How To Use This Book
This book will teach you the exact principles that people like you are using to make money with their book to expand their impact and to change the world.
You have two choices: you can try it the hard way, or do it the easy way. The hard way is you go it alone. The easy way is to learn the shortcuts and get some help.
I tried going it alone and doing it myself, and it took me over 20 years to publish my first book.
First, I struggled to get started. Then I struggled to finish writing my book—which I procrastinated on decades, because I felt like I’d wasted my time writing the wrong book.
Then I stopped trying. Then I felt bad about myself for giving up. Then I tried again. But without a marketing plan, or system behind my book, I was frustrated and confused.
Then, I tried the easy way. I got a mentor. I followed a system. I got some help.
That’s my recommendation. Get some help.
This book doesn’t just share success strategies with you about making money with your book. Instead, it shares with you stories and experiences from people who are doing it.
The first section of this book focuses on these examples. You will find that it doesn’t matter what business you’re in, or want to be in, your book can help you take it to the next level.
From hotdog
examples, to sales secrets,
to a simple happiness formula,
—you will learn how these authors are impacting people around the world with their books.
You’ll find money-making strategies you can use in every chapter of this book. They will be revealed in subtle ways in each interview, and are up to you to uncover and then implement. Not all
