Writing, Publishing, Marketing Your Own Book
Self-published authors are making tremendous strides in the literary world—from enhancing their writing skills to advancing their speaking careers. Many have mastered the various aspects of writing, publishing, marketing and promoting their own books. If you have achieved any one of these—congratulations—you’re on the right track!
The Benefits of Self-Publishing
There are unique advantages and significant benefits in utilizing the self-publishing process. By self-publishing, the author can maintain control of his/her voice, book content, book cover design and release date. If the author chooses to market and distribute his/her own book copies, he/she can also take up to 100% of his/her net book sale profits. And, with the wonders of the Internet, and print on demand, publishing, marketing, promoting and selling your own book has become more easily attainable and affordable than ever before.
Promote Your Book
Whether you are self-published or commercially published, you still need to boost your book promotional efforts. The self-published author who gets picked-up by a commercial publisher more than likely succeeded in finding a niche, establishing a target audience, and sold 7,000 to 10,000 or more copies of his/her book in less than a year.
Join the Ever-Growing Self-Publishing Industry
It’s been said that unless a self-published author is already well-known with proven marketing savvy and book sales to match, his/her chances of signing with a commercial publisher are slim. Nevertheless, that tidbit should not deter nor discourage you from getting your book in print. As a matter of fact, it is becoming more evident that the less often commercial publishers sign aspiring and self-published authors, the more the self-publishing industry grows. If you are an aspiring author, you should know how to publish a book and promote it, as well.
