I just want to write this article because it involves publishing tricks that all writers should pay attention to.
I certainly don't know this now... so I believe it will surprise some of you. I have to say that when I heard it, I almost fell off the chair.
The first novelist just sent their book to where they thought it was the publishing house. Publishers tell them that their books are not high enough for their list. However, it is suitable for self-publishing with their sister companies... at the expense of rolling... 10,000 pounds for just over 100 books.
£10K people! Are they crazy? They really think that writers will fall for this trick. Obviously not so crazy, because the writer who told me about it is considering paying the money.
Please, please do your research before considering any such intense things. Most publishers charge £25,000 per 1,000 books. Each book is about 2.50 pounds. If you want a smaller amount of print, you will pay less.
When you have too many rejections, it is easy to feel depressed and depressed. Yes, you may feel that you will never achieve your goals. But when you provide a "solution," there is really no need to ask for your credit card. Spend £10,000. This makes me feel manipulated.
If you have no luck to publish your book, then learn about marketing, get a mentor, rewrite your book, and let someone check your point of view. Look at independent publishers or take a look at the serious views of self-publishing.
Self-publishing is not - definitely not the second best ' these days. For people with entrepreneurial thinking, it may actually be better than mainstream publishers.
But not when you pay £10,000 for some books. This is vanity publishing rather than self-publishing. You and your book should be better than this.
Many of my clients have earned more than six digits - even seven digits - from savvy self-publishing. Please note that I said that SAVVY publishes it on its own. This does not mean using a "hope and prayer" to publish a book or e-book at random. method.
This means having a good strategy before bringing books to market. This means having an appropriate marketing plan and a public relations plan, and then you stick to it.
There are no shortcuts in this regard - even if you are published by mainstream publishers, you still need to help promote your book.
It took a lot of time and effort to write your book. Of course, is this less than it describes?
One of the great pleasures of self-publishing is that rewards are related to the amount of effort you put into it.
