Imagine the next time you meet with a client
or attend a speaking engagement…instead of
handing out business cards, you are able to
point to or give away your book. Not just
any book, but a book written by you, with
stories and wisdom gained through your
unique professional experience.
Suddenly you are not just another
businessperson, but an expert in your field.
Your book is available for sale on Amazon,
iBookstore and other major retailers across
the globe. And what’s more, when potential
clients look your book up, they find reviews
and testimonials from happy customers who’ve
benefited from your knowledge and insight.
Your book may not make you rich or famous,
but there is no doubt that self-publishing a
business book in your field of expertise can
have a myriad of direct benefits for you and
your business.
A well thought-out, professional-looking
self-published book can elevate your
business above your competitors; inform and
inspire current and future clientele;
magnify your profile and that of your
business. Your book can become a
self-perpetuating revenue-raising component
in its own right, a story that others are
inspired to read and to share.
