In this episode, I’ll share with you what you're potentially getting wrong in thinking about your book and your author journey, as well as implementing it. I’ll talk about the common misconceptions about the value and credibility of self-publishing, the process and cost of self-publishing, and other common rookie mistakes that you can avoid with the right knowledge and expert help. 

What You’ll Learn: 

• Is getting a traditional publishing deal the only credible way to publish a book? 
• The myths and truths about big book advances
• What kind of PR and marketing you can expect from a traditional publisher
• Is self-publishing really that easy? 
• What a layout designer does and why you need one
• How hiring a professional editor can save you from bad reviews on Amazon
• When you should really start to market and promote your book

Here is what our client Wei Huong says about his ongoing writing and self-publishing journey:

“The thing about being an author is, just when you think it's going to be easier, it isn't. And what I love about what Jane does is, she encourages you to find better ways to write each book as you progress, and yet at the same time is willing to offer constructive advice and guidance on how we could possibly make it better. Highly recommend her not just from a publishing standpoint, but if you're going to work with her, be open to just being the student, and be coachable. Because that's what's going to help you cross that finish line.”

The fact is that the book is judged by its cover. It might be a wise investment to join a self-publishing coaching program or hire a publishing consultant. This investment will pay for itself by helping you create a great book that gets results, taking up less of your time, reducing stress, and making the process more fun and profitable.
