THE SECRET BEHIND EVERY BESTSELLER
At some point, you said to yourself, “I’d like to write a book someday.”
But did you also say, “I hope it sells zero copies”?
Of course not. That would be ridiculous. But that's just what happens.
Most people who want to write a book never do. And of those few who do become authors, most never sell more than than 100 copies.
Let's change that.
These days, there is no shortage of people dishing out advice for authors. Especially regarding what it takes to sell your book:
Hack the media. Build a platform. Chase this new marketing fad.
You’ve heard it all before.
But what if before you could launch a bestseller, you had to write one? What if you what you really needed was a great book?
That's what I want to help you do.
THE FRAMEWORK
-
STEP 1: RESEARCH — Come up with a winning idea that has a built-in audience and validate the idea before you start writing.
-
STEP 2: WRITE — Weave the big idea throughout the book so it's easy to understand, follow, and talk about.
-
STEP 3: EDIT — Edit like a professional so that your book is free of clutter and fluff.
-
STEP 4: PUBLISH — Package the book with the right title, cover, and design. Then, publish it.
-
STEP 5: LAUNCH — Release your book into the world, following the three different phases of a book launch to help it sell.
