5 Steps on How to Market Your Book
So you wanna know how to be an author? IF you are doing this to gain more credibility and profit, I would highly suggest to first learn how to market your book, this post will help.
How to Promote Your Book
With the amazing help from my friend Rebecca Woodhead and a few other authors, I have learned a ton on how to promote your book in whatever niche you are in.
It all started with a private mastermind group to get feedback, buzz and some excitement going and from there there are 5 logical steps to more profits if you want to know the best way how to market your book.
The Truth About Marketing Your Book
I think a lot of people think that writing a book is going to make them rich and the reality is that is hardly ever the case. If you are an aspiring author and you are struggling, the thoughts of you becoming rich from a book is really, really unlikely. However, there are ways to make more profit than not and the biggest deal, in my opinion, when you write a book is the credibility you gain from simply being an author. Authors are part of a special society and if you are positioned correctly, which I will talk about in the below video, you will get asked to speak at events and you will attract different crowds of people that the non-author version of you would not have.

Are You Already an Author or an Aspiring One?
I would love to see your comment below if you agree or disagree with my statements above. Do authors typically get rich on their first book or is that industry ripe to learn how to make more money via the proper ways how to market?

I agree with most that you said as far as credibility…like you said if done correctly you can profit pretty well too.
Like you, I am releasing my book, and I have researched for the last year on exactly how, when, and why to do a book.
Some of the tips I learned were so in depth yet simple, it would even blow your mind.
Here I will give you a really cool trick, when your book is printed, the book will have a barcode on it, so being popular as you are, recruit family and friends to do the following, (order the books for them) have them go to major Wal-Marts in huge cities or high traffic locations, carry the already paid for book in, go to book section, browse, now take your book, to the front, scan it, pay for it, what happens is, the system will see that this book is not in inventory and that it is the only one, what happens is an order is sent to the RDC, well the RDC does not have it either, Wal-mart cannot order just one book, they have to order by the case…now if you have your folks (even if you pay them) to hit all 4 regions around America, guess what happens, yep, they have to order enough to stock the RDC to supply all there stores…
You may think it is underhanded but it works, a very well known author taught me that trick or tip…
You only make what you think your worth, choose abundance and let the money pour…

This is really incredible. I bought your ebook yesterday and I’m really enjoying it!
I’ve bookmarked this post so I can refer back to it when I’m ready to publish my own book!
Thanks for this Ray! So helpful!

I published my first book in september last year on Amazon. Its about photography and has received great reviews and sales all this while. So I get exactly what you say about the difference between the writer and non writer versions of oneself!
It really is a huge difference. You get contacted by people from all sorts of businesses. In my case, from ebook cover designers who are willing to design your cover for free for exposure to DSLR Lens making companies! And of course, other writers and novices contact you for advice. Its a great ‘Aura’ to have and a great time to be an Author!

I think honesty, as opposed to manipulation, is important in book marketing, or any marketing for that matter. Although sales-manipulation has often been, and continues to be used in promotion – I feel that the general public are becoming more and more aware of this and deciding on authors who – either have a reputation as an author OR simply an expert in their field… who then decide to put their expertise on paper.
I hope that helps.

No disagreement here. The public votes with their dollars and reputation certainly matters
