There Are Many Benefits of Writing a Book, While
Creating Your #1 Marketing Tool
By
Ann McIndoo, Author's Coach, and Author
of 'So, You Want to Write'!
Why should you write your book? As an entrepreneur, speaker, consultant, trainer, or any professional that markets their services, having a published book gives you a tremendous advantage over your competition. Not only does it give you a product to sell or use as a marketing, promotional or positioning tool, it makes you the expert, your book proves your expertise. Writing a book shows your passion and commitment to your business: you took an extraordinary journey and wrote a book.
Your published book will attract new clients, open countless doors for you to present, create new possibilities for building your business and generating added income in a variety of ways.
Imagine speaking to a prospect about your services and then presenting them with a signed copy of your book! Your book is a very powerful tool that will associate you and your services to them. Whether or not they read your book, they will see it and think of you, your services and level of professionalism and commitment. A book provides you with an influential competitive edge.
Here are some additional benefits of writing a book:
- Gain Credibility and Name Recognition
- Increased The Perceived Value of Your material or Resources
- Creating a Platform For Your Concepts, Ideas, Courses
- Creating Multiple Ancillary Products
- Attract Invitations to Speak Professionally
- Earn Higher Speaking Fees for Your Engagements.
- Earn Higher Consulting Fees
Let's discuss creating a platform for your business or educational offerings. What does this mean? A platform is your foundation for creating various ancillary products based on the content you offer. What income-producing ancillary products can you create based on the content from your book? Lots and lots!
Here are just a few:
- Developing an Ebook
- Producing an Audio Program
- Creating a Coaching Program
- Workshops / Seminars / Events
- Producing and Selling Educational DVDs
- Developing Tele-seminars for Nationwide Reach of Your Message(s)
- Podcasts
All of these products can be created based on the content of your book. You simply repurpose them and sell them online via your website and blog.
You can also create Special Reports, "Tips" and "Secrets" about your industry that solves your client's problems - these can be used as bonus gifts, sign-up inducements and used as outlines for an interview. Again, all of these products are based on the content of your book.
Having a book can create a whole new dimension to your business - online. A published book can attract attention online via your website, blog, links to other websites, press releases, internet radio interviews and pod casts. If you are interested in passive avenues of income, marketing your book and ancillary products online can produce amazing results.
These are just a few reasons why writing a book can be a great experience, produce a phenomenal business tool and create extraordinary results for you.
Let me know how I can help you write yours!
To your writing success!
