Unlock self-publishing secrets

Thanks to current technology, there has never been a better time to publish your own book. In this course, Successful Self-publishing: Print and Ebooks, we will demystify the current self-publishing landscape – so that you can determine and implement the best course of action for your book.

Whether you want to publish a book to generate fresh leads for your business, build your authority in your niche, or as an additional revenue stream – the addition of a published book to your body of work will help you achieve this.

These days, you can self-publish a printed book, create an ebook available on Amazon (and other platforms) – or you can do both. We give you the framework to determine the best strategy for you.

Please note: This course is designed for non-fiction authors – particularly consultants, speakers and business owners – who want to use their book as a lead generator or to showcase their expertise. If you want to self-publish your fiction novel, you should enrol in Self-publish Your Novel on Kindle.

Included in this course:

  • The best methods of publishing your book to suit your specific goals (it’s not a case of one size fits all!).
  • Do you need a printed book at all? Or can you just rely on an ebook?
  • How to select the best size and format for your printed book.
  • How to get your book printed – what are your options?
  • When should you use platforms like CreateSpace.
  • Standardised international file formats you need to publish print and eBooks to the various online platforms – and how you can do this yourself.
  • Elements of excellent book cover design that will help sell your book.
  • What is required inside your book. Interior layout: its contents, compliance and design.
  • How to upload your print and eBook to the biggest online global book retailer to make your book available to an international audience within 48 hours.
