Hello Reader, In 24 hours, I'll be going live with the Authorverse community to teach my newest workshop, '5 Business Models Behind Books.' Here are the 5 books I will be using to illustrate the 5 business models: (Yes, I am using my own book as an example. Teacher's prerogative. 😁) In working with so many experts and entrepreneurs over the past decade, I have been on the back-end of many businesses that rely on a published book as the cornerstone of their positioning. The 5 business models I will share tomorrow are:
Register for my workshop tomorrow, and I'll share detailed case studies for each one, as well as a copy of my Revenue Calculator. This Google Sheet help you calculate which of the 4 types of offers you should focus on next: 1-1, 1-Few, 1-Many, or 1-Any. Your book is the most expensive business card you will ever create. The costs of time, money, and creativity you invest in your book should pay off. Learn these 5 Business Models Behind Books to get the best return on your investment. If you are a published author (or you aspire to be one, but wonder how a book-based business can be financially successful) then register for my free Zoom workshop tomorrow: https://authorverse.club/page/expertseries-as We start in 24 hours. I hope to see you there! |
