Welcome to Business Around a Book!
Learn how to easily create a business that can drive profits for you and your family for years and years?
Understand the many specific business models available to you to create that business?
Learn how to utilize the massive power of a book to drive leads and sales to that business?
Finally get on board with what you know you’ve been meaning to do and get the knowledge and motivation to get it done?
So you wrote a great non fiction book. That’s an amazing feat. But now what? Are you relying on book sales to earn a living from it? Probably not the best idea. The average non fiction author will only sell 800 copies of their book in their lifetime. Do the math and you’ll realize, you’re probably not getting rich from direct book sales.
What you can, and should do, is build a profitable business around that book. A business like an online course, or membership site, or service. Or maybe you want to have a paid speaking career, or you want to create an agency where you service clients.
Then you go in for the sale, and that’s where the real profits come from.
I’ve done it. With my first book “Attention: This Book Will Make You Money”, published by John Wiley & Sons, I generated thousands of leads, booked paid speaking gigs all over the country, and leveraged the power of the book to get myself hundreds of thousands of dollars of free publicity and consulting fees with some of the biggest brands in the world.
Write a great book.
Build business around the book.
Use book to drive leads to business.
Profit.
Wash, rinse, repeat.
The BIGGEST problem for most authors is they have no idea what type of business to build. They don’t know what kind of business work best for their audience and demographic. They don’t know how to set it all up and what tools to use. They don’t know how to set prices. They don’t know how to capture leads.
So instead of doing something, they suffer from what I like to call “paralysis by analysis” where they do nothing because they’re just not sure what to do.
I’ve been there, and I’ve overcome it. Not only am I the author of over 10 books, I’m also a 20-year Internet Marketing veteran with experience working in every successful online business model.
Right now my flagship business is Author Marketing Club, an online passive-income membership site with almost 30,000 members from all over the globe! Before I started AMC, I was using the power of my first book, “Attention: This Book Will Make You Money”, to power my web consulting business. The book generated thousands of leads for me and allowed me to charge high-level consulting fees, of which, make up almost all of my income for years and years.
I don’t have a staff of people running my businesses. I have one virtual assistant and me, that’s it. Together, we manage tens of thousands of members and provide helpful, problem-solving information and tools to authors all around the world.
That’s it. For authors, non-fiction is problem solving while fiction is for entertaining. So if you’re a nonfiction author, your job is is to solve people’s problems. I don’t care what it is. Maybe you’re helping people understand how to do their taxes or use Excel. Maybe you’re helping people solve the problem of training their dogs. Heck, it could be anything.
The point is you’re solving someone’s problem, and the truth is, what everyone really wants is someone to just tell them what to do. That’s why using the power of a great book is the ultimate sales tool. You write the great book telling them what they need to do, then you offer them something else to help them get it done, or just more information, and you charge them for it.
This is NOT a course. There’s no homework and hours of videos or classes to watch. Business Around a Book is a hands-on consulting service where I will personally work with you to help you figure out what type of expertise you have and how to turn that into a business that can help you finally earn the type of income you have always wanted, but have never been able to achieve. In essence, I’m going to learn about you and your book, then give you specific answers to questions like:
Any many more answers to building the most profitable and successful business around your book that will give you the potential to skyrocket your income and change your life.
After we decide on a business to build for you, my team will create your new custom logo AND build your website/landing page for you so you can start getting customers immediately.
Your book cover means a lot. It’s got to be not only attention-getting, but professional. It has to use the right imagery to communicate the content to your target audience. And of course, it needs to be unique to you. My team and myself will work to create for you a custom book cover your audience will go nuts for. It doesn’t matter if you have a cover already, we can redo it and make it better.
Yeah, the part about promoting your book is still very important, but only after you’ve built the business around it first. I’m going to give you access to my best expert case studies and videos of how to promote your book. This includes training from non-fiction authors who are doing exactly what you will be doing.
This is a consulting service. If it were a course, or a product, I could give you something in “return” for my efforts. But in essence, I’m selling my expertise, and more importantly, my time. So how do you refund that? I will promise you this. If I am unable to deliver you a business idea for you after we talk then I will refund 33% (a third) of the first payment to you. Yes, there are rare times in the past where I have been unable to help someone figure out what to do, but in general, if you are an expert in something and you have a good book, and you have the will to build your own business, I will be able to help you.
