How would YOU like to see your manuscript available in bookstores - RIGHT NOW?

Getting into print is every writer's dream. But the unfortunate truth is that getting published is TOUGH.

The publishing houses are slow and cumbersome. They use cheap editors only interested in ripping your manuscript to shreds (because they know best!). And the publisher ALWAYS take the lion's share of profits - you end up with a measly few percent, TOPS!

But MOST IMPORTANTLY - publishing houses do NOT spot best-sellers!

There are literally hundreds of amazing manuscripts that go ignored each and every month (think Harry Potter!). And ALL because the person opening the mail didn't have the sense to REALIZE the genius behind the work.

However that's ALL changing... Thanks to NEW INNOVATIONS in SELF-PUBLISHING...

Publish Your Own Book 

If you have already written a book you may be dealing with the decision of whether or not you want to publish your book traditionally or whether self-publishing is a better option. In order to make this decision, it is important to learn as much as you can about both industries.

There are definitely very compelling reasons to self publish and I must point out that if you self publish first, it does not prevent you from traditionally publishing later on. In fact, many authors who dealt with the struggles of seeking traditional publishing, believed in their book, and self published went on to great success and traditional publishing contracts worth 10 times what they would have received initially. Why? Traditional publishers like to bank on a sure thing. Once you're self published and selling well, guess what, you are a sure thing.

Unfortunately, it does not work in reverse. You cannot normally traditionally publish and then change your mind and self publish. Why? Because when you publish traditionally, you sell the rights to your book. You no longer own it and are not able to make any decisions regarding what happens to it. If you haven't written a book yet, it is important to know how to publish your own book because you'll learn not only how easy it is but how much money you can make!

You can leverage your published book into a substantial annual income. You can use it as a calling card for your business. Use it to enhance your expert status and credibility. Use it as the foundation of a new business. Use it to build a sales funnel and increase back end sales and repeat customers. Use it to increase your opportunities. A published book is a great thing. It's available for all of the world to see and experience and you can sell your book 24/7. Best of all, the tools and technology available today makes it easy to print, publish, distribute, market and fulfill your customers needs all while you're taking care of other things, or having fun!

Knowing what your options are and educating yourself about self publishing is a powerful step in the right direction - the direction of changing your life for the better and fulfilling your dreams of being a published, and wealthy, author!

Publishing Vs. Self Publishing 

For many authors just starting out, it can be a confusing and overwhelming decision whether to self publish a book or to seek out a traditional publishing house. It is important to know that the decision you make can have a huge impact on the success, or the failure, of your book.There are many factors to consider, and the right decision is going to be different for every author and for every book.

Here are just a few key factors and publishing tips excerpted from Idea to Book to Success to help you make the decision of exactly how to publish a book:

Time:

When seeking a traditional publishing house to publish your book, you will soon discover that the book will be published according to the publisher's timeline. Publishing houses have a set production mandate and books are scheduled for publication far in advance. Often, books are signed on for publication one to three years before they are actually published.

When you self publish, the only timeline restricting the publication of your book is your own. You can take years to publish a book if you so choose. Or, if you work incredibly hard, you can have your book out on the market within months. You can take as much or as little time as you want or need to publish your book.

Control:

If you sign your book on with a publishing house, you must understand that it is now the publisher's book. As a new author you will likely be conceding to the wishes of the publisher when it comes to book title, design and cover. Also be aware that the responsibility of promoting and marketing the book will fall on your shoulders as well once the publisher has finished an initial, brief promotional push.

When you self publish a book, YOU are the publisher. This means you are solely responsible for coordinating the entire production of the book. You must find an editor, a designer, a distributor, a publicist, etc. When you self publish, you are forming your own publishing house and you are now in the business of publishing. You maintain all control and you publish the book the way you want to publish it.

Profit:

A publishing house signs books under the agreement of payment by advance and royalties. You will be paid a small sum of money up front as an advance on sales, and subsequently you will receive royalties once sales grow over and above your advance. Royalties are usually very small for new authors and are often as low as 5% of selling price.

Profit is definitely the biggest argument in favor of self publishing. If you self publish, the profits from your book sales are 100% yours. If you are willing to work hard to market and promote your book, you will reap the benefits of the sales. If you research carefully, plan properly and execute the right marketing strategy, there is no limit to the profit you can earn from your book sales.

As with any other business, you must properly research and plan to fully understand how to publish a book in order to be successful. If you publish the right way, the potential for success and profit is infinite.
