Acerca de esta escucha
Becoming a massively successful self-published author isn't easy. Even just one missing link in an otherwise perfect plan can kill your results.
The easiest way to avoid these mistakes is to learn from those who have made the mistakes for you and found a way to overcome them and can take you by the hand to show you the principles you need to follow to guarantee long-term success.
This is not strictly a book on marketing strategies or how to write a better book or a technical guide to self-publishing. Instead,this book gives you what you really need to succeed - the real-world principles all successful authors follow.

The reason most people struggle to sell what they want, for the price they want, is because they’re bored by or unconfident in their own product, their customers seem uninterested with what they have to sell, and they’re uncomfortable with the sales processes they’ve been taught. Follow the Sell Futures, Not Features framework to overcome those roadblocks and build products, offers, and sales messaging that make you the absolute best choice in your market.

"Writing is structure,” William Goldman said, but too often aspiring writers plunge into their work without grasping this fundamental principle. Story structure is one of the most important concepts for a writer to understand - and ironically, one of the least frequently taught. In this book, New York Times best-selling author William Bernhardt explains the elements that make stories work, using examples spanning from Gilgamesh to The Hunger Games.

Businesses fail for a lot of reasons. The biggest one, however, is the owner's lack of understanding of their personal decision-making skills, who they are, or who they should be inside their organization. Running a business is both an art and a science. If you are only good at one of them, or in the worst case, neither, you will most likely become one of the 65 percent of people who fail.

Writing and self-publishing a book to attract ideal customers (clients, patients, students, members) isn’t difficult. All you need is an experienced guide to show you exactly what to do! But first a warning, this book is not for everyone. This book is not focused on convincing you to write a book or showing you how to make money selling books. Instead, this is all about how to create a strategic sales tool for your business, in the form of a book.

Useful and practical
As an author and publisher, I found the book title quite intriguing. The book repeats a lot of what I have been reading but it also has some golden nuggets and useful resources. I found the mindset on success particularly helpful as well as the section on collaborating with other authors or influencers.
