I would not mind giving it a look over and reviewing it for you, if that would help.

Let me know.

Thanks for some great information.Branding yourself as an expert can take time but i liked your comment on creating your own book.If you look on amazon books there are authors who have come from nothing and yet are perceived as experts.

thanks for the info

Sorry for the delay in relying. Thanks for your comments. I have had the book reviewed by a number of people and promoted it on many social media channels. I have sold a few copies but I would like this to be ongoing.
Jon, the book is about SEO. See http://www.seotrafficexplosion.net
If anyone is interested in promoting this book I will be happy to give then a free copy.

Cheers
Roger

What is your book about, niche?

Perhaps some of the people in here could be given a copy, and asked to give a review for you.

Maybe the start of the testimonials for it, which maybe the start of the ball rolling.

If the niche is suitable, I am willing to do that for you, as a start.

If you have written a book then it is going to be assumed that you would want to earn an income from that work? Correct so far? So here goes:
You need to bring this to the attention of everyone you meet, both online and offline. Get someone whose opinion you trust to have a look at the material. If its good, you have nothing to worry about, word of mouth is the best advertising so use it to your advantage. Your friends and immediate family are your best support group,use this as well. If you have a blog, review it or ask some to write a review and post this to your blog. Link this post to the social networks including, facebook, twitter and LinkedIn. Use social marking services giving brief description of the book. Visit other blogs in the niche for which you have written the book and post comments or do guest posting(s).
Roger, there are so many other ways, both free and paid that you could use but it will take up too much space here to list them. Hope this was a helpful start.

I have recently completed my first book using your OMM program. Like Joy I an finding it hard to promote. Do you have any tips?

Cheers

I remember reading John Chow’s thoughts on this recently. He said that he used his book like a business card, which is something that I thought was absolute genius!

I agree with Glen to some degree, if the book went main street and sold in the offline world then I’m with you for the credibility stakes. I’m not so sure if it’s just an eBook sold online, especially with so much PLR around.

I remember the first book I wrote, it was while I was on John’s Masterclass Course, I was never really happy with it even though it was full of quality info, I actually refunded the one guy that paid for it (much to his surprise)…I’m no Stephen King (or perhaps I am) and for me it was never good enough. It didn’t make me feel like I’d made it as an authority figure.

I must admit it took me a while to get back in the saddle and write another, but I think I see it more as revenue stream rather than a form of influence…maybe I need to rethink my branding.

Oh to be the next JK Rowling, Dan Brown or Simon Beaufoy (Full Monty)…loving the lifestyle of these guys.

Good luck with your home study course Glen…I’m off to put pen to paper

Cheers
Steve

I wonder if I can get a PLR licence for Star Wars :)

I’ve written my “book” (well, 2 ebooks actually!) so I’m at the promoting stage – which I’m finding far harder than writing the book was.

But thanks to Matt for his useful tips.

As usual, you write some excellent pieces and this one is from the same mould. I do agree with you wholeheartedly that writing can put one in a better position with one’s list of customers, whther this is going to a blog or an eBook, it does not matter.
People like to know that they are valued and once the content is valuable, reliable and consistent then half the battle has been won. The rest relies pretty much on the marketer or would be entrepreneur to capitalise on any social capital that might have derived from these actions.
