5/10/24 Monetize Your Book Tip 20: The Sticky Subjects of Sales & Selling

Monetize Your Book, Tip 20 Hi, Reader! Our TIp 20: Sales & Selling is, without question, a sticky subject. Add in overcoming objections, commanding a price, holding the line when it comes to scope creep and boundary bending, and it's almost enough to send you back to a full-time job. Almost. If you have issues with sales or selling, asking what you’re worth, or setting boundaries with clients or customers, now is a great time to sort those things out. The only way I personally can help you...

Monetize Your Book, Tip 19 Hi, Reader! Real quick: On today's Thursday's LIVE at 10 am CT/11 am ET, Lucas and I will chat about The Power of Short and Mini Books. Once you've got those basics down pat (Tip 18), you'll want to move onto Tip 19: your income stream's Processes and Procedures. These are the Big 3 (a.k.a., the very least of what you need to get started). You can at least engage a client with these in place (and increase the likelihood you will), and as time goes on, you'll...

Monetize Your Book, Tip 17 Hi, Reader! I hope you've taken a pause and answered the questions presented over the past week.

Monetize Your Book, Tip 16 Hi, Reader! I love Mondays! A fresh, new week to create, impact, and yes, monetize! Speaking of monetizing... You'll ask yourself one last question as part of Tip 16: How can you build a new income stream and enjoy the process? A couple of things at play here ... Just because you could build an income stream that could be easy and lucrative, doesn't mean you should. If you think you'd hate it, by all means, don't do it! Sometimes all you need is a simple shift to...

Happy Saturday, Reader! What an incredible week! I have a new, very short book. On next Thursday's LIVE, Lucas and I will chat about The Power of Short and Mini Books.

What's new, how's your writing, publishing or marketing going, and what are you looking forward to right now? Here are the newsletters from this past week: 🎯 Monday, 4/29/24 Monetize Your Book...

Monetize Your Book, Tip 15 Hi, Reader! It's Friday! I'm totally excited for tomorrow--my Rotary Club hosts an annual Jockeys & Juleps Kentucky Derby Party charitable fundraiser. I love the horse names (my favorite this year is Uncle Heavy), camaraderie, and most of all, giving back. The weather has warmed up and it's absolutely gorgeous outside, and I've been writing "all the things" and hosting most of this week's Zoom calls from the deck. The last tip this week is Tip 15: Who can help you...

Monetize Your Book, Tip 14 Hi, Reader! Once you've figure out how much time you have to work on building a new income stream, the next question to ask is Tip 14: How much money do you have to invest in it? Some income streams require more of an initial investment than others. While I do love being able to "build an income stream on a shoestring," I recognize my outcomes are borne by my willingness to do things professionally and, well, from the beginning. Be honest about how much you’re...

Monetize Your Book, Tip 13 Hi, Reader! And just like that, it's May! (How is that possible?) If you're planning to publish your book this calendar year, I'd say this is the last month to get started. You'll want to publish before the end of October (six month timeline for a short book), otherwise put your target pub date for January 2025 or later. If you're considering working with me on a custom book, let's chat (press reply and I'll send a scheduling link). We can figure out if working with...

Monetize Your Book, Tip 12 Hi, Reader! Our next question is Tip 12: How much do you need to earn? If you need the income stream to completely support you, figure out your monthly nut (everything you need to pay every single expense you have) and multiply it by 1.5. If you're wondering why, I'm glad. The short answer is: you'll be happier and less stressed with more than enough. More than enough allows you to pay your bills, build a reserve, rescue dogs, and invest back in your business. Just...
