New pottery has seen it give you follow me on social media.

So when it comes to writing your first book, I want to give you three tips some of things that I've learned over the years and I've published with a publisher and have also sell published print on the Man or having thousands and thousands of books and inventories.

I've done a lot of things in terms of publishing.

So when it comes to writing your first book, Number one, the key is knowing what it is that you want from the book.

What is the outcome that you want now for some?

If this is just simply your legacy, what this is, you simply want to share your story, and that's perfectly fine, right?

If that is your goal, but you need to be very, very clear about what exactly is the outcome?

Some people.

They try to make money from the book. 00:00:58.320 --> 00:01:2.530 Well, if you'll go is trying to make money from the book, I could tell you from experience. 00:01:2.540 --> 00:01:4.390 Don't bother writer a book. 00:01:4.390 --> 00:01:6.790 It's It's It's a very, very bad business. 00:01:6.790 --> 00:01:9.740 Unless your hair reporter okay, all right, that's a different story. 00:01:9.850 --> 00:01:19.960 But for most publishing, writing a book, the amount of time that you would invest and spent on just getting one book done, it's just simply not worth it as a business from a business perspective.

So why should you write a book?

However, if you are writing a book, not just for your own amusement boy, actually, you want to use it for business to generate leads.

I think that's a very smart thing to do, because so much noise in the marketplace.

One of the things that you could do to stand out is to actually have a book, because this could act us your ultimate business card.

Imagine you meet someone at a business function, right?

You meet with them.

Everybody's heading a business card.

Oh, here's my business card.

That's my business card, right?

And then you get it.

You're throwing away.

But versus when you get a book from somebody that he has a substance, right?

People like, Wow, you have a book.

You're the author of the book.

You've even heard of the saying that people say that.

Oh, you know, he wrote. 00:01:59.060 --> 00:02:5.040 The book on that subject means that someone is an expert when you look at the word authority, right? 00:02:5.050 --> 00:02:9.400 What's the 1st 6 letter off authority author? 00:02:9.770 --> 00:02:13.550 When young author, it automatically makes you an authority on the subject.

So knowing what is the outcome?

We're not trying to profit or we're not trying to use the book to get rich.

But if you could use the book to grow your business strategically, intelligently, I think that's a various smart thing to do.

So that's key Number one Number two.

The title off your book.

It is so, so critical that 80% of games you might have the best book in the world the best manuscript.

But if the title is not interesting, then you're not going to sell a lot of books.

So one of things I would recommend you do, and this is what I did.

You would come out with their say 45 high does that.

You know that these are the title that you want to choose.

One of those, and what it could do is you actually run Google.

AdWords is a smart attention.

Your run Google Air words on uncle go to see which title which headline people would click onto the most and then when they actually hit the landing page, Here's what you do The hit the Landing page You would create a lot of covers, right?

A lot of digital covers with the different titles on the landing page, and you actually give people an option to pre order the book from you before even write the book.

You're selling it so people can preorder and you will see cover.

People are most interesting.

So your title, but also goes with the cover what it looks like so you won't have a very compelling title that people actually want, but and then you want a very compelling cover so you could test it before you write a single word right before you spend months for In some cases, years, writing that book wouldn't be good.

Would it be wise when it be smart to actually test it out to see anyone who wants it.

Book.

So title is 80% of game to cover.

Very, very critical.

You wanted to be professionally designed.

You wanted to be a very professional. 00:03:57.430 --> 00:04:0.710 You don't want those something that it looks like it's home made. 00:04:0.840 --> 00:04:4.090 It looks like it's so self published that doesn t hurt your credibility. 00:04:4.140 --> 00:04:7.040 Number three is before even finished the book. 00:04:7.050 --> 00:04:11.050 You should have a very clear marketing plan on how you're going to sell the book.

It is called a best selling author, New York Times Best selling author, War Street Journal, Bestselling author, USA Today Best selling author.

It is not best writing author.

We're not trying to compete on that.

So you gotta think about how I'm gonna sell the book.

How gonna use the book if you're gonna use this a business card knowing that you will order a lot of copies and you're just giving it away to potential prospects.

Maybe you were sent it in the mail to your potential clients or you send it to an existing clients so they could wait for people to you.

Either way, it doesn't matter.

What is that you want to do?

But I gotta have a marketing plan.

Don't try to count on or you're gonna make money selling a lot of books that's know where the money is.

But you could use a book to build your business done properly, especially if you are in the service business. 00:04:56.390 --> 00:05:2.500 It's a very powerful thing to difference you yourself what everyone else does, and you by having a book, you will stand out. 00:05:2.540 --> 00:05:6.660 So those are some of things that you should consider writing your first book. 00:05:6.980 --> 00:05:16.650 And if you're watching my videos and you find it useful and this actually motivates you to write your first book coming below post a link there, I would love to see your work.
