#152: Should You Self Publish Or Go The Traditional Route?


Listen Later

Should you self publish?  Or traditionally publish?

In this episode, we'll weigh the pros and cons of both.  So you can make an informed decision on which publishing path is right for you.

We'll cover:

  • What  steps to expect as a traditional author
  • How much time it takes to bring a self-published book vs. a traditionally published book
  • Upfront costs self publishers shouldn't ignore
  • Royalties (and why marketing and distribution are key to sales)
  • A side by side comparison of income potential for traditional and self published authors

So, whether you're on the fence, just curious, or you've already decided which path to take and want some tips and pointers, you won't want to miss this episode.
