Let’s start with your answers to two essential questions:
1 How’s your book visibility?
2 What about your ability to brag as an author?
If there is an introvert in you that is allowed to influence and control your marketing—your book’s visibility, as well as your own, will take a deep hit. It’s why AuthorU’s kickoff New Year program is all about visibility, position, and gulp, bragging.
There are ways to “brag” and ways not to. You don’t have to look and sound like a jerk or jerkette who boasts about anything and everything. No, you can “brag” and have class and panache at the same time. A skill you will be taught and shown how to implement on Saturday.
The reality is, if you can’t sell yourself, you can’t sell your book! That means BRAGGING and VISIBILITY are critical. Attend the January Saturday Morning Program event and get ready to learn how to brag and how to use your brag statements to increase your books sales and reputation as an amazing author!
Get ready for the Art of Author and Book Brag to be revealed on Saturday. It’s a double-header morning plus a BONUS. The first part
Identify Your Brag Factors
If you can’t sell yourself, you can’t sell your product, service, idea or book.
- Do you want to sell more books?
- Do you want to schedule more presentations?
- Do you want to your book to inspire others?
It’s time for you to get your brag on. Many people don’t like to brag. We’ve been taught since we were kids that it’s wrong, egotistical and no one cares. Another myth is that if you are a good person and do good deeds (and, are a best-seller), others will naturally talk about you in a positive manner!
The truth? If you can’t sell yourself, you can’t sell your product, service, idea or book!
The other truth? No one will do it for you!
The third truth? People enjoy reading books that are written by authors that know how to share their brag statements!
You will learn the five amazing steps on how to brag in a business-savvy manner.
- Create brag factors that make a positive difference
- Develop the confidence to brag
- Use your brag statements to sell more books and book more presentations
