Writing a book feels like a multi-year project that's impossible to fit into your busy entrepreneurial life—but what if you could go from idea to published bestseller in just 12 months?
That's why I was excited to welcome Ashley Mansour, author and book coach, to Marketing #Unfiltered to break down exactly how to write a book that doesn't just sit on shelves, but actually generates clients and revenue for your business.
We cover:
➡️ Why the biggest myth about book writing (that it takes years) is keeping you stuck The three essential questions every business book must answer before you start writing
➡️ Speed writing techniques that help you create content in hours instead of months
➡️ How to structure your book as a client conversion tool, not just a credibility piece
➡️ The difference between writing a book and leveraging a book (and why most authors miss this)
➡️ Why giving your book away for free can be your most profitable strategy
➡️ How to hit bestseller status on multiple lists (yes, it's more achievable than you think)
If you've been sitting on a book idea because it feels too overwhelming or time-consuming, this episode gives you the roadmap to make it happen without sacrificing your business or sanity.
