The Smart Answer Is NOW!
Inspiration, Know-How, and Confidence to Write Your Book
Would having a book help you attract more business, even a better class of business? You bet it would!
How frustrating is it to know a book can have such a tremendous effect on your business, and still, never get it done?
3 Reasons Why the Aspiring Authors Program™ Will Help You Do It!
1. Explore Many Different Ways to Write.
Most programs on book writing have one method, their way the way they wrote their books. There’s a good chance their way will just frustrate you.
And don’t be fooled by those fast, no-sweat methods: Write a book in a weekend. Really? You need a book that passes the quality test, showcasing you as the authority.
There’s no one best way that works for everyone. That’s why the Aspiring Authors Program™, 6-Session Live Training shows you many different ways, so you choose the best way, the easiest, for you to create yours.
The 6 Live Weekly Group Coaching Calls will motivate you, check in on your progress, and give you answers to your most pesky problems.
2. Process Plus Implementation.
This Aspiring Authors Program™ simplifies what you need know to write your book, your way.
This process has been honed over the past 20-plus years of helping many different experts become successful authors.
These steps will give you such clarity that you’ll have no excuse except to write your book.
The 250-page Program Guide and Resource Manual guides you through homework to put into practice everything you learn.
As a leading consultant in business book authorship with a track record of success, I know you can write a great book!
3. Plan for Success.
Write a book that is compelling and of interest to your target market. You’ll create a business plan that clearly aligns your goals with the book you write.
As part of that plan you’ll learn the best marketing ideas for you. You’ll know before you write it, how and where you will sell your book.
Think it’s impossible for first-time authors to get a traditional publisher? If that is your goal, then this program will show you how.
If your goal is to finish and publish your book as economically and quickly as possible, then you will be armed with the resources you will need for self-publishing print, ebooks, and audiobooks.
A Book You’ll Be Proud Of
Imagine handing your book to your prospects to showcase your expertise, to get more speaking engagements, or to sell as a product that reinforces your training.
How much more confident would you feel? How will you be compared to your competitors and viewed differently (hint: as the authority)?
You can do it! All you need is the incentive, the knowledge, and a clear vision that will make it easier, doable. And you get all of that in these 6 weeks of the info-packed Aspiring Authors Program™.
