Description

Think your book is ready for the world?
Not so fast. Before you publish, you need a plan. And this week's guest, Naren Aryal, CEO, Amplify Publishing Group helps you build one that actually works.

You’ll get the inside track on today’s publishing options: traditional, self, and hybrid. More important, you’ll learn how to pick the path that fits your goals, and how to turn your book into something bigger.

Find out why the smartest authors start marketing long before launch, how a clear target audience changes everything, and why your book might be your best tool for landing speaking gigs, consulting clients, and global deals.

In this episode you'll discover how to...

  • Pick your path: The real-world pros and cons of each publishing model
  • Avoid the launch trap: Why most books flop—and what to do instead
  • Make your book work harder: Get more than sales—get leads, stages, and deals
  • Grow before you go live: Build your audience early and connect like a pro

If you want your book to do more than sit on a shelf, hit the play button now!
