THERE ARE THREE STAGES IN THE LIFE OF ANY AUTHOR
- 1There is a time when you have all the intellectual ideas sorted out
in your head and all you are looking for is a starting point.
- 2There is a time when you are in the midst of creating your work and
the thoughts of how you are going to publish it start to creep in.
- 3And then there is a time when all said and done, you suddenly realize
that your published work didn't get the acclaim and recognition it deserved.
If you are anyone of the above, you need to realize that when it comes to publishing;
YOU NEED TO TAKE CONTROL
What Is The Mistake You Make?
Handing over the fate of your hard work to people who work in a system where personal
interests and gains are put before yours, is a mistake which most of the authors
are ready to make without blinking twice.
Wondering Why?
This is because you don't want to get out of your comfort zone and explore the much
more effective and lucrative options available. Remember, the fate of your book
should be in your own hands. So take control.
SOLID FACTS
1Traditional publishers
have their own vested interests which clash with the progress of the author. For
starters, these people can never have the same incentive as you, to have to get
your work fully recognized. Also when it comes to traditional publishing, the lion's
share of the profit goes to the publisher. Thus, even when the book does become
successful, the author only earns peanuts.
2Self publishing
is another widely followed option, one in which there are apparently less hurdles.
But, it often fails until and unless the author has a huge following. Publishers
basically provide the author a platform to launch, but once an author decides to
introduce his/her work individually, albeit through traditional means, the chances
of failing increase manifold, consequently resulting in lesser to no profits at
all.
It can be argued that E-books, Kindles and Nooks also remove the
middle man and drift away from the traditional methods of publishing, but this comes
coupled with the overhead cost of web hosting, management and most importantly marketing
– things which can cut into the profit which the author makes.
MOST IMPORTANTLY, THROUGH TRADITIONAL PUBLISHING METHODS, THE AUTHOR NEVER GETS
TO KNOW THE CUSTOMER!
Knowing the customer who bought your book is paramount. Without it, you cannot understand
the psyche of the customers and their specific needs. This allows the publishers
to weigh in on the authors thought process, giving them all the control.
The key is to know the people who are buying your book, so that you can sell your
product to them time and time again. Your initial work is just an introduction into
the market and the money you earn is just a token of what lies ahead. Once you develop
a following in a particular niche, you slowly become an authority and there is a
huge chance that people interested in your line of work would want to consult you
for various issues, which you did not address in the initial publication(s). This
way you can quickly develop a pool of readers and the more they engage you, the
more are your chances to earn money.
IN A NUTSHELL, ALL THE BARRIERS BETWEEN YOU AND THE READER ARE REMOVED AND YOU GET
THE ULTIMATE FINANCIAL CONTROL.
