You may already be a motivational keynoter on the national speaking circuit. You may already be an author of one or two books that you wrote to inspire others to greatness. Or you may be just starting out—someone who enjoys reading the motivational books and watching the motivational speakers—and is looking for a way to enter this rewarding line of work. Whoever you are, if you want a real game plan on how to increase your audience by publishing motivational ebooks and audiobooks, then you’ve come to the right place. There is a form of online book sales and marketing known as “rapid release” publishing that many of today’s most successful independent authors are using to sell thousands of books every year. Some of these authors are consistently earning six-figure incomes. I believe motivational authors can achieve similar results if they follow the same clear and repeatable processes. WHY MOTIVATIONAL AUTHORS ARE EXCELLENT CANDIDATES FOR SELF-PUBLISHING In fact, motivational authors are among the perfect candidates for this form of self-publishing. Why? Because of your diverse demographic (e.g., seniors, adults, teenagers, children, males, females, et cetera) and the varied subject matter you can cover (e.g., joy, gratitude, love, maintaining optimal health, improving relationships, succeeding at school or business, financial abundance, et cetera). When it comes to topic matter, the sky is the limit in your field, and “rapid release” publishing provides an opportunity for you to expand your business to genuinely help more people while building your audience both online and offline. Think of this as a unique way to clone yourself. As someone with 25 years’ experience in book publishing, sales, and marketing, I can show motivational authors how to self-publish professional grade ebooks and audiobooks that will supplement your income in an efficient way. I know you’re already busy enough as it is, and there are only so many hours in each day, so efficiency is key. I get it, and that’s why I think this professional self-publishing program is perfect for you. WHY EBOOKS AND AUDIOBOOKS ARE PERFECT FORMATS FOR MOTIVATIONAL GENRES We all have a preferred learning style and strength whether it be audio, visual, or kinesthetic. Some prefer a social “lecture room” setting where others prefer a more solitary learning environment. Obviously, ebooks and audiobooks have a great appeal for audio and visual solitary learners, and this is why they’re such a great tool for motivational authors. Your more visual learners will prefer to savour and digest the text in front of them, at their own pace, in the quiet comfort of a preferred learning area. A motivational ebook not only allows them to do this, but it also allows them to go back and review what they’ve read, to give it further thought later on. Audiobooks are also useful motivational learning tools—particularly for busy adults who spend much of their time commuting on a daily basis. These individuals are often left with little spare time for any kind of traditional reading, so audiobooks are a welcome alternative. It allows them to absorb their lessons during a break at work, a morning jog, on a plane, or even in the car. NO INTEREST IN WRITING A BOOK YOURSELF? THAT’S OKAY. YOU DON’T HAVE TO. Although some motivational speakers have the time and ability to write their own books, others might choose to hire a professional ghostwriter to help them create that compelling narrative. Both are acceptable ways to produce a book. In this ebook, I’ll show you how to find an affordable professional ghostwriter to help you with the writing aspect of things so you can focus on other areas of your business.
